Ouch, thanks for the message yesterday. It was an emotional day. and I seem to have gotten food poisoning again and barely made it through the service. spent evening throwing up at my in-laws house, but the bright side was I didn't have to see my SIL.

Am I really wrong to think that this 'social worker' they've hired to sort out their not-even-2 year old's 'behavioural problems' is actually their way of covering up that someone has shopped them to social services? There is nothing wrong with that little girl except her parents. Angry [judgy]

TrillianAstra · 29/09/2010 22:10

Yank! Hello

Am supposed to be being sociable, but dp is talking about the Internet connection and technical stuff so I can take a few mins to say hi

bellavita · 29/09/2010 22:16

Sorry you are illing Yank Sad. Do you think you might make it to the London do on the 27th Nov?

OuchPassVodka · 29/09/2010 22:18

I wasnt aware that you could privately hire social workers. from what you have said, it is concern for the kid rather then judging. hope you recover soon.

my early night has been squished by someone needing support. Now have the muchies so going to see if i can find something easy to eat.

Trills is he fixing, altering or just talking about the internet connection?

BitOfFun · 29/09/2010 22:20

Haven't caught up yet, sorry, but just heard from Shiney- she is getting a snooze in before they start the two-hourly checks on ds1 Sad. She is knackered with no wifi Sad

jetcat · 29/09/2010 22:21

glad you are getting them both sorted shiney - and you are right, you have nothing to feel guilty about, you cant be in two places at once! I was going to text you a really rude joke, as i know you like themGrin, but then my bloomin internet went down and, lazy git that i am, i havent actually inputted your number into this phone so would have had to get onto fb to check it.

Vinny - you are seriously pissing me off impressing me with your complete cleverness, as are you trills. Bof, i am simply scared to add you - i have heard you play big wordsGrin

Bella - wow at £2000Shock Junior has a wonky tooth at the side of her mouth, and the dentist previously suggested a brace but she wasnt keen. I think i will have to investigate the cost optionHmm

Well, mini's party is all booked and sorted. Hall booked, Mr Tumble wannabe booked - he takes charge of the full party, does a magic show, provides music and plays games etc - all so i don't have toGrin He has rave reviews, so i actually cant wait!

TrillianAstra · 29/09/2010 22:35

Sounds perfect jet- make someone else sort it!

YanknCock · 29/09/2010 22:36

bella, it all depends on work. I had a last minute interview on Monday. Stupid NHS job website didn't send the notifications, so I only found out on Friday and had to cancel doing down to London on weekend. We had to drive down yesterday morning instead for the dedication service at Southwark Cathedral (for people who've died from eating disorders, my cousin's name was there).

Anyway, if I get this new job, I will have money again, and then I can probably afford to come! But if not, I don't see how I can manage it, we'll be in poverty mode. This call centre from home stuff will make a bit of dosh, but not enough for any luxuries.

I am skiving off the course and not paying attention. A little lost anyway since I had to miss last night.

YanknCock · 29/09/2010 22:51

I have started a thread about SIL here if anyone wants to weigh in.

bellavita · 29/09/2010 23:01

Jet, that was a private price though, we are NHS. The dentist said the NHS orthodontists are paring back on what they offer all the time, so if it looks like it is cosmetic - which I suppose DS1's is as it is just a gap, then they won't do it for free. Yay for getting the party booked.

Hopefully Ted will get the go ahead to go home tomorrow morning after the docs have been round.

OuchPassVodka · 29/09/2010 23:03

Yank is it you who has the sil who has kid who has had lots of test for consipatition but only feels the kid crap?

YanknCock · 29/09/2010 23:06

OUch, no, not me, but they do feed her crap. Tea in a bottle aged 1 among other things

wastingaway · 29/09/2010 23:13

That's Reality's SIL Ouch.

Hello, I can't keep up atm, I hope you are all well, and if you aren't that it's better soon. Smile

YanknCock · 29/09/2010 23:21

I think Reality's SIL is a higher end of lunatic. My SIL is just thick and greedy, those are her primary driving forces.

OuchPassVodka · 29/09/2010 23:21

Important summary for wasting:
several people illing
Shiney's dd has been in hospital with damaged knee but she couldnt look after her and her ds was ammiteded (sp) to hospital with asthma. but both children bein well looked after.

Iggi999 · 29/09/2010 23:30

Hi Yank, long time no see

Iggi999 · 29/09/2010 23:30

Hi Yank, long time no see

OuchPassVodka · 29/09/2010 23:32

I am trying to keep things straight but get a bit mixed up on the weird sils.
Lordy my last post was dreadful Hmm sorry Blush
not sleeping chest bad again. going to steam up the bathroom in a mo.

YanknCock · 29/09/2010 23:32

So much for the course tonight. I got sucked in to the vortex that is MN and ignored the instructor bleating though the headset for the last hour or so. Will have to make up for it somehow over the weekend.

Heading for bed now, nice to be back here. Missed you all.

wastingaway · 29/09/2010 23:40

Hi Yank, glad to see you here. Smile

My SIL is not weird, she's really very normal. (Mostly)

Wow Shiney! Sad Keep your pecker up duck, hope there's improvement soon.

DreamsInBinary · 30/09/2010 08:00

Morning everyone Grin

I think this must be my first time as the first morning poster. Cool.

Sorry about the awol, Ouch. Busy busy at the mo - life seems to be work-bedtime-chores-gym-bed Confused

Having said that, I saw a friend last night and am going to a comedy club tonight, so not so bad. Perhaps I should 'do a BoF' and wear bunny ears...Wink

mittz · 30/09/2010 08:19

You would look soooo alluring in Bunny ears DiB Smile, you have the class to carry it off xx

I have ear ache... sweet jesus... OUCH!!

Hello Yank! MWAH

Shiney.. you might have two children in hospital but I have a cold so can we get our sympathy priorities right here please..I'm not one to moan but this is serious illing..Grin

Lizzylou · 30/09/2010 09:18

Grin at competitive illing/misery!

Hope Ted and Taya are OK this morning, Shiney.

DIB, I am with Mittz, can sooo see you in Bunny ears.

Yank, hope you're OK, sounds like you have such a lot on at the moment!

OuchPassVodka · 30/09/2010 09:18

Warm hot water bottle or wheat bag will help it mittz. it seems to be sinus related here.

temp has just shot up again. i have taken paracetamol and crawled back into bed. So tired and achey. have an alarm set for nurse appt. hopefully will nap a bit.

Shiney hope that they sort ted out early and you arent kept waiting the whole day. hope you got some sleep.

Good to see you DIB. I suppose the bunny ears would go with the gym bunny status Grin there must be nothing left to you at this rate. Envy

mittz · 30/09/2010 09:37

Competitive Lizzy? But I have a cold..somewhat bemused at the lack of understanding how significant this is Grin

How are you Lizzy you fabulous woman? One of your hugs would work a treat right now Smile

Also hoping that Ted and Taya are much improved on yesterday. Especially Ted with his asthma, it is so alarming in the LO's.

Non contagious vibes to other poorly ones.. it is pants isn't it?

Thinking of you re job Yank Smile

I think the brace things is abysmal Bella, it is the kind of thing they just used to do as a matter of course not making a lumping great profit out of. [frown]
