Nobody Loves me, Everybody Hates Me, I Think I'll go and eat Worms

Loti 
You've had such a year for illness, did you ever get your bloods tested?
Silk you are the soul of practicality and those are all excellent considerations (I am the swept-away sort 
so not much use in these situations).
DS has been complaining of 'sore tum' all day and asking for medicine. He has also gifted me with six dirty nappies, and then fell asleep on my lap about an hour ago [bless]. I guess I should wake him up soon but he looks so cute and it is so peaceful. Having a sore tum is hard work, after all.
Evening 
Have not caught up properly but i had a lovely, lovely weekend. Well until i realised DH had wiped all of my contacts on my iphone 
. I had literally just got them all sorted and 'poof'. The synching with my computer hadn't worked so am back to the information from my old phone
Sorry bibi . Life is so unfair and sucks. {{{{Big Hugs}}}}}. Definitely worth considering silks 'devils advocate' questions, although i know it will not diminish the yearning.
TS your snow looks fab - amazing pics
BBBB many, many sympathies on terrible 2's hitting. Hope you still manage to enjoy your holidays and get some relaxation time
No1 Tis very very lovely to have you back. Just plop yourself on the thread sofa, grab a vino cuppa and chat away . Have things been sorted with DH? Does he get access given his prior actions?
LOTI i agree with your DH . A first i believe 
. Please do get tested as you have been really ill time and again - even if they just recommend some vitamins or summat
ursula I hope things improve your end soon and some stresses are reduced. Always lovely to see you when you can/feel like popping by
We started trying to adjust DD2's wake up time this morning as she has moved back to 5.30ish and we had a nightmare with them both at Dsis's house. Cue an hour of returning her to bed this morning until 'Hippo' woke up . DH and I hid under the duvet after 7am and didn't get up until 8.20
Oh and Dad seems to be responding to the 957th set of ab's. He even came over to Dsis's on Sunday for my birthday lunch and seemed much perkier, so fingers x'd this continues and he can shift the dreadful cough which makes him sick. Thanks for all your positive thoughts .
morning,
so glad you had a great birthday crisp and your dad is on the mend hurrah!
bbbb really hope you can enjoy your holiday and dd1 starts to behaves properly
am calling the docs at 8.30am to try and get app and demand blood test.. you all so right sick sick sick of getting poorly and want to kick start the new year in a positive way!!
dd2 being a diamond, dd1 not so much [sigh]
Morning
loti glad you are going to the docs (hopefully)!
crispy I never wished you a Happy Birthday, so please accept my belated birthday wishes
ts any sign of the snow going?
merlion when's your next scan? Uber exciting!
Star how did your booking appt go with the mw? Do you have a scan date yet?
Morning everyone back to do some study....
Yay for your dad feeling better Crispy , and glad you had a great birthday. Only seems like two minutes since your last birthday was scuppered by snow
Loti hope you get somewhere with the doctor today
Wow merlion, names decided already that's organised!
TS hope your snow goes soon, it's nice at first isn't it, but soon gets boooooring.
It's dark here today 
was going to go out in the garden but think it may piss down with rain at any minute. Oh well, at least it's not freezing today and the central heating boiler can have a bit of a rest.
DD back at school today, she's much better after a day sent vegging on the sofa. And MIL is taking Thor for the afternoon on Thursday so if that goes well it hopefully won't be too long before we can persuade her to take them both overnight and me and DH can have a night out
Hots glad dd feeling better and yay for night out in the offing. Was having a bit of a dilemma about potential dd name but dh seems to have come round to my way of thinking .
cc get back to the writing! Next scan a week today - the 20 week one. This time certainly going much quicker than last time.
loti let us know how you get on at the docs.
Ok ladies blood test booked for tom am hurrah!! She still reckons I have an inner ear virus from dec . She was great tho and determined to get me sorted!!
Tea loaf in the oven, prep for lunch/dinner done... Dd2 happy after walk in muddy puddles so a cuppa for me!!
Fjor so glad dd is better and stay inside if it's murky out there!
Cece keep at it girl
Just stopping by with my sandwich
loti glad your doc is good, hope they find something and nothing at the same time (iyswim)
merlion I found with ds2 that the time flew by, like I didnt' have time to 'do' pregnancy , whereas first time I was analysing every twinge and kick. Your 16 week scan seems like 5 mins ago, let alone having a 20 week scan next week!
fjorgyn the garden looks tempting as it needs tidying up and the corderline (sp?) is losing all its fronds due to the cold snap(s) we've had - allegedly the worst December for 120 years . But alas, I must study instead
afternoon all
i'm finding it easier to read all your news than type my own at the moment. i'm v bored of one handed typing, my thoughts just don't flow as they should do
i do think its amusing that we're seeing more of cc now she's studying Hope its going really well CC
loti dear goodness re all the fainting. not good at all :(
bibi thinking of you. hope you're giving a minute or two to you every now and again
salta no idea! i'll have a think!
merlion oooh, are you going to share your names with us?
hellooooo to everyone else who i love just as much as the above lot but i must dash... DS has a stickle brick sticking out of his ear......
Mmmmm. I think DD2 is 'My Naughty Little Sister' . DD1 certainly thinks so!
Loti best of luck with the bloods m'dear don't go fainting again now will you? Don't like the sound of that .
CC stop staring out the window at your dying plants or we'll have to get you blinkers.
My friend's little girl used to be just like Boo in Monsters Inc. My guys, who are they like... ?
Beebs - commiserations on Posh envy. I know you've been though it 1000 times but just make sure the op's what you both really want.
Merlion HALFWAY ALONG .
Has anyone seen the film Microcosmos? It won squillions of awards about ten years ago. ds2 loves it. It sounds bonkers but it's a documentary about insects, with no narration, just sensational photography and a music soundtrack. It is BRILLIANT.
DS is like the monkey in 'Monkey Puzzle'. Cuddly, chatty, but very insistent about the details
loti good for you getting checked out. Hopefully some iron supplements will see you right. And a rest. You need to practice the fine art of doing nothing
cece still waiting for my scan date, wish they'd get a move on! I want to know if I've made it all up or not.
Well, DS was very floppy and sorry for himself all last night and ended up in our bed. Then was full of beans today and lots of fun, until about 4 o'clock when he suddenly went floppy, yawny and sad, then puked apple chunks all over his bedroom floor, himself and my cardigan. It says a lot that twenty minutes later he was bouncing on the settee and yelling with happiness. He is now eating mashed potato in front of the telly - at least if he yaks that back up it should be fairly inoffensive.
DH had his second interview today and it seemed to go well (you can never tell, can you) despite him stressing out all morning about having water/wax blocking one ear. Bless him, he is such a good man.

Lol hippo you are so right
bibi no wise words from me, but the other ladies speak wisdom.
star hope ds is ok and it's just a one off chunder
I've been to see the gynae consultant today and he's booking me in for sterilisation, should get a date through for about 4-6 weeks. bonus, I get to take a week off work too !!!
salta I'm not sure who the ds's are like . Ds2 is a bit like George pig...largely indecipherable, cries at the drop of a hat and says 'dinosaur, raaaaah', ds 1 is..I'm not sure. Very verbose and literate for his age, uber friendly - can strike up a conversation with anyone of any age (usually politely) but can be deaf as a post when being asked by me to do something...
