We have a great new pastor, who I now know well as I met him in a cake shop earlier int he week and lent him £10 to but cakes, so he now is a great freind!

Anyway, off to bed. But I love you all, I really do!

Sorry thats the S (alvation) Army not the T (erritorial) Army

Congratulatons Harrisey!

Well, I'm dreading work today. Can't sleep...

MOrning all

MAry, praying that work isn't as bad as you fear.

greta you are full members now Harrisey

Podmog, continuing to pray for your situation. May God give you peace in the whole situation.

CD - good news re being asked to go back to your job. Praying that God will provide for you all.

praying fo ryou all, better dash, school run calls!

For a moment I wondered who greta was .

Prayers for all.

Harrisey meant to say, that your DS does you credit. It DOES sound a bit like that boy has ASD... I wonder if the school are aware/doing anything? DS's school have been very quick to pick up on it...

I get an hour to myself today! DS AND DD are in after school clubs! I won't know what to do with myself!

Morning all

Had a good 10 hours sleep last night, but still shattered, waking up with sore throat that goes away in the day, don't know whats up! maybe completely exhausted, thats what my doctor keeps telling me

Happy Sunny Monday!!!!!!!!

Oh mary 1 hour to yourself! enjoy

podmog - how are you today? any thoughts on speaking to someone

Message withdrawn

Praying that the meeting is positive and brings resolution Podmog.

I am here supposedly trawling for jobs - have one application form winging its way to me - only 7.5 hours a week admin in a local school, but flexibility in the hours! Wondering whether to get involved with something new starting at church, hmm need to pray!

Good morning all.

Flying by - busy again!

Could I ask that we put my mil's church and her new vicar on the prayer list (MILs name is Pat, if that makes it easier than praying for Notquitegrownupsmotherinlawsnewvicar!)

Prayers that this will be a time of growth for all in the parish and prayers for tolerance, patience, love and wisdom for all in the parish, as they try to move forward with their new Vicar.

Morning all,

Mary - hope today is ok for you - praying things aren't too awful at work.

Podmog - hoping for a positive outcome of your meeting.

CD - how are you and your lovely girlies? DS seems to be dropping his afternoon sleep recently. He now goes to be at around 11 for about 90 mins and that's it for the day. Hoping it will improve his night time sleeping...

Busy weekend here, had PIL, SIL & family + my mum here for lunch yesterday (9 adults +DS!) went really well, had a fab time but am exhausted now!

Happy Mondays

Morning! Phew! Tried a bit of Controlled Crying with poor DD2 (am I a meanie mummy??) and the third time I went in there, she took her dummy and settled down - have had to go into DD1 three times as well, but they seem have settled now. Phew! Please pray I can limp my way to Christmas with these morning naps!!??

Exhausted already and it is only 10.20am!

Praying for your MIL's new Vicar, NQGU - how are you and your lovely boys sweetie (that includes DH BTW )??

{{{{{Sooz}}}} Slow down, don't make yourself ill honey!!

Just a reminder to keep praying for onlyjoking. [[http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/138/396385?rnd=1191234072692 Here's her latest thread. xx

Whoops! Didn't close brackets.

OnlyJoking

Podmog - yikes, prayers and good luck for 11.00am meeting with vicar, I pray vicar see's situation clearly and can put a plan of action in force immediately!

Keep us posted

CD - thanks for link of onlyjoking, prayers are continued.

NQGU - prayers for pats new vicar.

I still havent met ours, I pray he is also settling in, I see him walk in the village, head down and hunched shoulders, please god help him hold his head high and greet villagers we are a friendly bunch really!

Sorry I have just had a wicked thought, next time I see him I'm going to go "BOO! lovely day"

Think you should jump out from behind a bush too!

AW DIPPY - your sense of humour is worse than mine

I could blow my trumpet!

Maybe he prays while walking, he ought to be careful of the lamposts though

No suzi, you shouldn't go around blowing your own trumpet...

ROFL at you two though, funny pair!

Goodness, gracious me, I'm only away a week and it takes me an hour to (sort of) catch up.
We had a lovely week in Wales with my brother and sister-in-law, didn't do any walking which I had hoped to do but had the most amazing experience in the church in Bala ever.
Harrisey, you remember you said you had friends in Bala, who used to run the Christian Hotel? Well after the service I asked the rector about them and she said:- "that must be Adrian and Hilary, Adrian is the one in the white robe over there." So I went over to him and he said "What brings you to this church?" and I said:"You did", and then started to explain, about Mumsnet and not knowing anybody's real name, you can imagine how funny it was..
Anyway, he had no idea who I was talking about, his wife was practising music for the Harvest Festival next week, so I didn't get to talk to her, but he said he would e.mail me if the penny dropped.
But it was lovely to have somebody to talk to and something to talk about.
I hope to catch up properly in a day or two,
Hope things work out for you Mary and special prayers for CD too.

Great to have you back, DO! Glad you had such a super time away! xx

Wasn't me DO!

You must have me mixed up with some other random person whose name you dont know either
