Miss laugh alot. LO is in bed now... But that's the first time in ages!
I was bringing him up at 6/7 n stuff. But last week when MS got bad I was in bed two days n DH took over. Since LO has been in bed at 8/9ish. But his has all coincided with him sleeping thro again! Yeppie.
He has done a couple 12 hour stretches! But mostly 10 hours. 
The first night he cried at 4.30. I was so bad couldn't get out of bed. N DH took ages, by the time I shoved him enough to wake him LO was asleep again 
second night same thing. Third night slept through.

Grrrrrrr!! Collected Dottie early as had done what housework I had allocated myself today don't want to be too fly and was sat there bored so went and got her for cuddles - which meant I had prepped dinner but she wanted feeding just as the salmon needed cooking - dh did it all brings it in ala half raw salmon and cold watercress sauce!!! My favouritist dinner and he balls it up!!! Thank god there's a bottle of wine in the fridge!!!
detective car insurance is a rip off though him being fussy as to which car he has would 
me - surely you should get the bigger car for Oscar and his accompaniments?? I have the big car for kids/baby/dog/big shop/eBay pick ups while he has the stupidly tiny micro car - though we did mange 2 trips to France in it with 4 of us plus crap - was v cramped!! Though on our recent jaunt to Manchester I still manage to fill the whole of the boot with what if crap - what if we need the play mat, what if we need the steriliser lol
In other news my box of sweets arrived but there's not a chance it will all fit in the silly little gift box I bought!!! Either I fashion my own or make another trip into town!! Or I could just eat enough sweets til they fit??? Anyone want a dib dab or pineapple cube??

Another cunting thread
Why oh why after feeling fed up yesterday, I've come home tonight at 6pm, bedtime to do and I'm in the mood for fucking cleaning. What's wrong with me?! Wierdo
miss M goes down between half 9 and half 10 for the night. She's tired from earlier but doesn't give in
detective That sounds shit. Anyone who changes car on a policy would be to a newly owned car. Nobheads! Would it not have been cheaper to cancel and start a new policy with someone else?
When I passed my test years ago, I passed end of April, DHs insurance was up for renewal at end August. He rang up to add me to the insurance as a named driver and the twats wanted £550!!! For 4 months as a named driver. I bought my own car, got my own policy and that only cost £650 in my name. When he renewed in sept he added me then as a named driver and it ended up being only £50 more. I reckon they just pluck numbers from the air

BPLP Gay they are!
miss O started off 11-12pm bedtimes. We started waking him around 9, and he started sleeping at 9-10pm. Then suddenly, with no prompting, or idea he was going to do it, the last 4 nights he has been falling asleep around 7.30pm, stirring for a feed between 9.30-10.30 depending on what time he last fed, then going back down.
HOWEVER. He is waking 4 hourly through the night, where as previously he was sleeping 7-8 hours. With one 9.5 hour stint.
Not sure what I prefer right now! . One 6 hour stretch would be good?! Just one?! Last night he did a 6 hour stretch, except he was bloody well awake and not interested in feeding, as opposed to sleeping and not interested in feeding. He woke at 3.30 and fed, then woke at 7.30 to start the day, but then didn't feed til 9.30. Gah.
Glenda I can manage in my car okay, not liking the fact it is a 3 door, but I'll manage for now. He wants the bigger car for his fucking legs 
. He is 6ft1. I'm tempted to just go out and get my new car now. I can't really afford it, but then once it comes back from being repaired next week, its due MOT/Tax. I could use that money for a month or 2's payments, and the rest of the money from DP's car for another month or 2. I'll have a look in to it. I'm planning on getting a very very cheap car to run. Think less than band C for tax, and 50-60mpg minimum!
pass At this rate i'll be asleep before I get a bath!! D'oh!
Fatima We tried every possible combination of insurances. Cancelling and taking a new policy with them (for they still came back the cheapest by a long way) would have cost £450 (as opposed to the £320 we paid out to swap car over), and he would have lost nearly half a year no claims, and when you only have 1 year, you don't want to lose even a day!
CUNTS! YOU MUTHAFUCKIN' CUNTS!!!

Miss you are not alone. LO doesn't go to bed properly until we do at about 10:30/11 - despite my efforts!! I am trying to put her to bed now, Ewan is on, she's had a good feed, but every time I attempt to transfer she wakes up crying! She's not slept much at all today either She does sometimes nap in her carry cot when she is downstairs in the evenings tho.

LO has had a 10 minute snooze this morning and an hours nap this afternoon . I hope this means she'll sleep well?

He he he PR you make me laugh - I love a good swear. Pass 
. on the blouse he he that sounds like something that would happen to me.
All good here just biting my nails down to stumps about the mortgage, could do with a fucking big bottle of wine 
!
DS normally falls off his perch between 7.30 and 9pm depending on if he fancies cluster feeding or how much he's slept in the day. Did a 7 mile walk this afternoon to watch the sunset and the little darling managed to stay awake in the buggy for over an hour little nap avoider - hence he's just crashed and burned in a hissy fit off to sleep...
GT lovely to hear from you xx

After going to bed, and I use the term loosely, between 11 and 1.30, J started going down at 10, then 9.30. Tonight he was in bed by 8 so wondering if that is him for a few hours, or if he will be up in 45 mins. He has napped really well today, but has been awake since 4 so was pretty tired. If I go to bed he will wake, if I stay up he will sleep. Law of sod.
When I added DH as a learner it was an extra £5 a month. When he passed, it was no extra. There are benefits to being over 40. I hope to get a small lease car through work, and have him insured on that too. I have decided to go back full time 
pass I once got a detention for telling my Latin teacher his flies were undone. He was a bastard and used to throw things at us. I bet you felt dreadful about the blouse

One of the reasons I like Dexter is because I would love to fuck him
Night night fuckers, hopefully.
