Hi LWFH

Dizzy - having a glass of vino? Good!!

LOTI - Wassup?

dizzydixies · 01/08/2010 21:54

tis what's left of last night's bottle

CrispyTheCrisp · 01/08/2010 22:15

Sorry, just spilt my wine over DH knowing the plan. I forget sometimes you have not met him

oopsandbabycoconuts · 01/08/2010 22:27

Night all, DDs both asleep and I'm jumping in a bath then off to sleep and hope they both do too.

longwayfromhome · 01/08/2010 22:28

having a lovely holiday, but just got back to my parents after our trip to Leeds a day early as the kids and I wanted a bit of familiarity. I drove us home (not that far, but still a long way for me) and they are just in bed.

hotter I tried to contact you via FB re:
tomorrow, but very much looking forward to seeing you all, I will put your address into google maps, and see you soon. hurrah

longwayfromhome · 01/08/2010 22:29

night all

CrispyTheCrisp · 01/08/2010 22:35

Night, Longway. Glad you are having a nice trip

Have fun tomorrow ladies

TwilightSurfer · 02/08/2010 01:03

LWFH for her meet-up tomorrow with HP!!

Crispy's glamorous new life.

Really need to quit sitting here with my head in the sand.

Also of meet up.

DS really didn't want me to go to work this morning - he tried to put my shoes back in the cupboard when I took them out to put them on . I wish it were that simple - no shoes = no work!

hotterpotter · 02/08/2010 06:54

lwfh I'm afraid that No1 has had to cancel as her DS is poorly You are still very welcome of course but don't want to drag you all this way just for us, especially as you only drove home yesterday! Would you prefer tomorrow, to give you a day off driving? We could even try and find somewhere halfway in between? Will text you in a bit; still too early for phones ringing (thanks DC )

Love to you all, back later

luckoftheirish · 02/08/2010 07:36

morning ladies .. was a little tiny bit drunk last night when i posted ..

hey ho, i was just a long day of dds being in a metal mood, "h" trying to play with them half heartedly as he was tired so frustrating for me.. {he is livingat his mates at the mo}.. but seems to be here alot.. excuse being wanting to see girlies... upshot is that he is trying too hard, sometimes not 100% in the mood to be here iykwim but is trying...

any how enough about me..

hope you make your meet up lwfm/hots..

BEST OF LUCK SAZZ u will be fabulous ..

dizzy fb you last night, hope in my state it made sense ..

hope all better cece..

liking the sound of your snack ts tho feeling rather delicate today!!

hotterpotter · 02/08/2010 08:26

Ooh I just talked to lwfh on the phone She sounds lovely and is still coming, so better get tidying up...

oopsandbabycoconuts · 02/08/2010 09:01

LWFH and HP Have a wonderful meet up

We have DH's uncle coming to do some decorating for us this week and DD1 is beside herself with excitement so woke at 5.45 and has been waiting fo him since - he is only due here at 9.30!

Sazz - GOOD LUCK today you will be fantastic.

LOTI - Lots of water and paracetamol!

hotterpotter · 02/08/2010 11:21

Well we already knew but am just confirming that lwfh and her family are all utterly gorgeous They only stayed for an hour but could have chatted to her and her lovely mum all day. Thor and T almost played together, two lovely blonde boys, and baby M is soo sweet and very laid back with the most beautiful eyes and cheeky grin. Somehow by some miracle I even managed to save enough KitschnBake brownie for them to try

oopsandbabycoconuts · 02/08/2010 11:23

HP - Just the one brownie for them all??

hotterpotter · 02/08/2010 11:31

What kind of cake fiend do you take me for ???????? Of course there was enough for them to have a piece each - I even saved the biggest pieces! I admit I did eat half of the piece I was saving for No1 when she said she wasn't coming

cyteen · 02/08/2010 13:20

Glad you all had such a lovely time, although poor little M being ill

loti hangover or no, you sound like you have a very sensible head on your shoulders right now. My respect is ongoing

There is a man in my shower! DP's mate has popped in to get cleaned up en route to see another friend.

luckoftheirish · 02/08/2010 14:02

ooooh cyteen ..

hangover from hell today!!! just started mamouth clean in anticipation of dd2 early b-day party for family on sun!!

managed 5 bin bags in playroom already and that was just the cupboards .. dd2 helping in her own sweet way ..

so pleased meet up went well, i am so looking forward to the 17th!!

GladioliBuckets · 02/08/2010 15:35

LOTI Sounds like progress! How about you decide which would be the most helpful 'slots' for him to visit/remove a child/ren then let him choose which? Are you getting any me-time yet? Are you getting out with friends yet? Whether things work out with him or not, you need to be using this time to work on you, decide who you want to be.

Thanks for reassurance on the fringe ladies, s'all right. Actually got to dance with DH on Sat and hold hands and we got a taxi and we got a kebab LOL. Then Sunday my folks came round and we had a day hacking and stacking and now my garden doesn't look like the spooky overgrown one of the empty house next door. Doesn't look like what you'd call anice garden as we pulled out the last flower bed - we know our limitations, we just don't care enough to spend time gardening so rather lawn than a bunch of weeds and brambles. I was ruthless^ on everything I touched, my 10' bay tree is now a mere 5'. V achey and stiff together though.

longwayfromhome · 02/08/2010 15:52

hello! hotterpotter and her family are absolutely gorgeous (well, you knew that anyway!) Beautiful children, and a wonderful house, made us feel really welcome.

And, yes, the brownie was amazing too. Just off to write a review now!

TwilightSurfer · 02/08/2010 17:23

somebody come visit me and bring brownies!!!!

OP posts:
luckoftheirish · 02/08/2010 17:25

one day!!!

CaptainCaveman · 02/08/2010 20:24

Glad you and lwfh had fun hotpot

I still feel rough as shit

MrsMiamla · 02/08/2010 21:15

evening all

crisp were you in London today?? you'd better not have been anywhere near my office!!!!

TS would love to but i'm pretty sure any brownies travelling with me wouldn't survive the flight without being scoffed!! You'll have to convince KnB to set up a franchise out there

cc hope you're feeling better soon

sooo tired, last day at work tomorrow for a year (at least) and i've got so much to do. my cover is proving to be as lovely as i thought she would be and is already joining in on all our banter.

sorry to not type more, but room is starting to spin so suspect bed would be a good idea

oh and Pea news.... she's really low, i'm getting lots of braxton hicks and DH and I had our first hypnobirth class yday Just hope she stays where she is for another week... this means we'll be able to finish the course next sunday AND it means we'll be 'allowed' to have her at home because we'll be 37weeks!!!!! how the hell did that happen???
