I am in the Yurt, as it needed a spring clean (well its spring in my homeland). While cleaning the Yurt it shifted slightly to be aligned with the autumn winds of the north. Therefore Litotes needed a slight adjustment also.

HI everyone my cold is now getting better and am in Dublin. Thanks for the birthday messages for dH he will be touched but our row centred around my internet use as well as everything else so stayed away whilst he is around.

Anyway every now and then a good row helps to clear the air and get us all back on track and we had a great day. Am going to have a few beauty treatements here today and wonderful soothing massage.

Hope baby paps is better paps and hello melsy and wk. How is the bracelet and anklet getting on wk?

wobblyknicks · 27/10/2004 09:41

gf - you must be psychic - was going to email you to say that the bracelet and anklet are.......wait for it.....finished!!!!! Just need you to email me your address now!!!! Unfortunately there's no way i can get out of the house today to post it so will be tommorrow.

gothicmama · 27/10/2004 10:33

Wk are you still interested in doing mine

glitterfairy · 27/10/2004 11:28

glitterfairy · 27/10/2004 11:29

Hiya gm how are you?

wobblyknicks · 27/10/2004 14:14

Ok glitter!!

gm - I am, but ever since you asked I've been trying to track down large round citrine beads and apparently they seem rarer than goldust!!! You can get faceted ones, tiny ones or citrine chunks but something about citrine apparently makes it very hard to get round citrine beads!!! I even posted on a prolific American message board asking for suppliers and a couple of people said they were looking too but no-one could supply!!!The only place I've found them so far is always out of stock - wonder why!!! So not sure what to do there....

gothicmama · 27/10/2004 14:17

i don't know but thanks for trying

wobblyknicks · 27/10/2004 14:35

I could get tiny ones and make a bracelet with 3 or 4 lines of them, if that appeals at all?

Papillon · 28/10/2004 08:12

Hey glitter glad you was able to get here for some beauty treatments. Baby paps is fine and it is her birthday tomorrow!! very exciting and have loads of people coming so have to ask all the Litotes elves to come lend a hand

melsy · 28/10/2004 13:37

Hope u and babay paps are feeling better too, must be something in the air!!may be the moon !!

sounds like everyone need extra special treatments today, so I suggest group masage on the deck and candles, lots of laying around in warm cosy towelling robes and soothing music.

Papillon · 28/10/2004 14:41

that sounds very good Melsy... would love a massage and spa therapy jet pounding and reflexology. Then sit and gossip on the deck with you

all is again full health in the paps household and baby paps is again up to her I don´t want to sleep tricks!

Happy Birthday Paps beautiful DD! The elves are all preparing.

fairyfly · 28/10/2004 17:15

Hi Glitter hope you are all feeling better and hope to catch up soon x

melsy · 01/11/2004 07:56

Paps how was th party girl ? Sorry didnt call , havent been too grand last few days , been sleeping alot whislt dh is around.

So what does everyone fancy today , if anypnes around. After thomcats thread i think ill have some healing on my stomach area, as Ive been in right state with that the last week. The a lay down in one of the rooms with fire going and some hot choccy.

Papillon · 01/11/2004 08:56

I will bring you some hot choccy Melsy and some well insulated ear muffs Baby paps loved her party and had lots of little friends to play with. She was very excited and her bread pudding muffin cake went down a treat. An english mate said that he has been eating bread pudding his whole life and I have taken to a new level. It was tasty The girls upstairs baked too... so we had lots of cakes, hummus and crisps of course

How you doing glitter, dh must be pleased with you now... you have been very good and stayed away!! Big Litotes kisses to you.

HI Guys am sneeking on whilst DH is away to get a fix. Acutally he minds Mn less than the nursing times web site I also frequent!

So am snuggling here by the fire instead of building my new wardrobe (my new mantra is you cant have enough storage!.)I made my Chrsitmas cake today and am savouring the lovely smell as it goes round the house. Have made a spare one for the land so that we can all enjoy some at Christmas!

Papillon · 08/11/2004 11:25

Hello Glitterfairy
Lovely to see you back for a visit having escaped the bonds of your dh monitoring eyes!!

I agree about not having enuf storage. We have just acquired a USM cabinets for our shoes that used to line the halls collecting fluff and looking generally untidy. Now the hall looks sleek and savvy

I am here today for a sea spa and some warm air. Baby paps and I had red noses at the park this morning so need warming up in summer land. Am here with Melsy giving her good cheer and companionship, so abit of christmas cake sounds lovely to eat later in front of the fire.

Hiya Paps am fine and dandy! Am around today and perhaps we can chat later on MSN. As it is a home day today (am supposed to be writing for my PHd) I am ging to have a long ride out on the prairie, my nails done and perhaps a massage as well as a sea spa soak! The later tea in the library.

Papillon · 11/11/2004 09:07

glad you are around today glitter and a ride on the prairie sounds fab. a friend was coming over to visit right now but something came up.

all the other litoteon sisters seem to have flown the coop! will lurk on MSN immediately

glitterfairy · 11/11/2004 19:31

Hello paps enjoyed the ride have treated myself to cocktails on teh summer deck after tea in the winter room.

Papillon · 13/11/2004 09:45

Melsy I have moved back in here.... then we can sit on the deck and chat

Tell your dh he is most welcome - it is not 5 star and we only get BBC Prime LOL!! If he is still not keen you and mini melsy come still PLEASE!!!!

Lets go and discuss this while we have herbal wraps - I need one today - AF is making me ache all over. Better dash back to bed now... dh is out with baby paps getting groceries and I am meant to be resting.

Hello everyone else... SIBBLE hows life?

OP posts:
melsy · 13/11/2004 12:17

Did add message but pc froze and crashed PHHHHOEEEEEYYY.

Herb wrap sounds lovely , just what I need today , some calm nurturing.

Funny we have AF at same time ,feel like ive been kicked all round midriff area, will explain 10 days of headaches now !!

Do you have an extra double mattress ??!! Not sure I can sleep straight on floor or air bed, Im not cut out for it anymore!!! Im no were near as earthy as I used to be (or as much as you are paps!!). Like my creature comforts now , especially after such a harrowing year anxiety wise and being insomniac. Corr Im turning into a right JP!! NOt sure I can brave a journey like that alone with dd , Im not controlling my anxiety very well at the mo.
Problem is builder cant garantee dates he needs us out , so proving difficult to book flights and save money or evene get availability at the last minute.

Think I need to go into a padded cell for a bit and have a crash around , Im getting waaaaayyyy stressed and tense. As if by magic , litotes house now has one , now I can head butt and whack things withought pain !!!!
