Fucking hell. Not leaving the house again.

I never go to the shop at night. I looked at DP and just knew he wouldn't go. I dragged some clothes on, and headed out. Wanted some soft drinks and chocolate!.

Anyway, some scruffy twat nearly knocked me down running out with a basket of food, and the staff all running after him. He tried to leg it over the road, and nearly got run over. There was another guy obviously waiting for him outside, who was trying to push the staff going after him off.

DP doesn't even care that I could have been hurt! He said I'm stronger than he is, and could fend for myself when I said that he should be the one to go out if we need anything at night!

Dick!

Hmm

Ps. They had vanilla Vienetta. Vanilla? Pffft. Fuckers. And it was on for a quid. I want mint DAMNIT!

big hugs sweetpea feel that however my night goes I shouldn't complain tonight. take things slowly ... they will get better! and when the fog lifts you will be so grateful for the decision you made tonight just takes some distance to see it.
stay strong!

Contradictionincarnate · 15/03/2013 23:29

and now I want vienetta! ... I'm doing my utmost to be good! isn't working though! so far this week I have eaten a big bag of choclaye covered raisens ...creme eggs ...easter egg and eaten two rabbit shapped ferraro roshae (sp) boxes! ... that's just the chocolate stuff ... carrot sticks and strawberries remain untouched.
think I'm comfort eating! ...its a vicious circle isn't it!?

Evening quichettes!!!

My dog you lot can chat!!!

We left Cornwall at 10.30 and it should have taken 5 hours to get home - 8 fucking hours later!!!!! Pissing torrential rain, twitting overturned lorry (hope everyone was ok) and rubbish traffic were to blame. However, my gorgeous star of a baby was a diamond and slept 6 of the 8 hours - and has settled down for the night back in her own cot!!!! Dog I love my cheeky little bambino and I'm soooooo glad I have her in my life!!!! She rocks!!!

While away I put her in a sleeping bag as the caravan was cold and dah dah she's slept in it since so we've got rid of the swaddle yay!!!!

When I bf her in the rugby hold she gently bats my hand away so she has my boob all to herself - its soo sweet!!!

I'm so glad to be home!!!

Contradictionincarnate · 15/03/2013 23:34

welcome home! Smile

twitting overturned lorry

Ooh it's been delivered. The man said "you're one of the lucky ones today" to which I replied, "why, because it's nice and early?". "No, one of our lorries went up in flames and has closed the M5, all that's left is the metal caging"

??

Welcome back.

LuisGarcia · 15/03/2013 23:49

I'm really f'ing rubbish at facebook, btw, I'm sorry. I reawoke my account just to join the group. Your babies are all gorgeous smilie bundles.

glendathefedupwitch · 16/03/2013 00:04

The twitting lorry was on the tamar bridge in Plymouth but dh pointed out a burnt out car transporter and think that was m5!!!

LuisGarcia · 16/03/2013 00:11

Mumsnet and M5 lorry fires. Bringing people together since 1833.

sweetpea1112 · 16/03/2013 00:22

First night feed. Almost four hours, what a star.

LuisGarcia · 16/03/2013 00:24

Yes. You are.

Contradictionincarnate · 16/03/2013 00:28

I second Luis sweet

Contradictionincarnate · 16/03/2013 00:30

sweet hope you got some rest too!
am about to start my long 10 hour sleep ... wishful thinking! Smile

sweetpea1112 · 16/03/2013 00:30

Ha! O is the star here.

Bottle drained, almost asleep again. What a good boy.

Luis hope your little one isn't keeping you awake?

Contradictionincarnate · 16/03/2013 00:38

good night sweet pea! ...
Luis beside your number 1 fan ... ?

LuisGarcia · 16/03/2013 00:38

She is, yes. She has been woken up by my big one and is struggling

TheDetective · 16/03/2013 00:51

Good boy O! Be good for mummy!

I find it hard to sleep at the moment because it feels pointless when you know someone will be up soon for a feed!

Tomorrow who am I kidding?! Today... I am taking both boys swimming. Hmm Should prove interesting. We are travelling to a pool which is further away, as it is 32 degrees in the small pool!

I am also picking up a Jumperoo (got for £35 in the end yippee!) so YW thank you for your kind offer, but we are sorted now hopefully!

sweetpea1112 · 16/03/2013 00:51

hope you get some sleep soon Luis. See you all in three hours.

LuisGarcia · 16/03/2013 00:55

sleep sweetpea1112

ValiumQueen · 16/03/2013 01:36

Almost 3 hours here. Could be worse. Settled quickly when he woke at 10 and did again just now but woke with wind. Having another quick feed. Wish I was. Or even a drink would be nice.

ValiumQueen · 16/03/2013 01:44

'She was woken up by my big one' that could sound rude to the wrong ears luis
