I will say it again MRM.

I have never noticed any sizes at all with you either in pics or in rl... something about you makes me not see anything other than your face/eyes/personality or something!

Sorry for not responding much to posts - I am scanning them, but my brain is a bit scattered right now... Weds seems to have knocked me a bit and I am sliding downwards again, not helped by me having lost even more weight and I am suddenly realising how little I'm eating. Its not intentional - I think it started out as I was just too busy, and now its gone on for a while I'm not feeling hungry. My mum has got some complan left over from my grandad - I will try drinking some of that. I don't want to put on masses, I just need to stop losing iyswim or I can see it tipping over into bad areas. Always said before that I was too hungry/not enough will power for an eating disorder, but seeing how easily it is coming off, how I can try on clothes and they actually look nice but then still look in the mirror later and feel lumpy, I can see how it could easily topple over

I had reflexology yesterday which has helped a bit (although I shivered for 3 hours afterwards ). We've finally worked out why she keeps finding issues in one hip - it is the hip I carry DS on!!!

Kel - Enjoy your night out, you deserve it.

Flamesparrow · 28/04/2007 11:25

Macca... everything ready to go on site... will wait to click button til you are around though

Jelley · 28/04/2007 16:29

Come on macca, we've been waiting all day!

Frizbe · 28/04/2007 19:48

I'm here have you done it yet then? should I go and look???

Dd1 had ear ache all night, dh got up with her at 4am to sort her out, she went back to sleep, but he stayed up then he had to do lots of work at home, so
I've dragged a shy, then tearful dd1 around with me and dd2 all day. She went shy at friends who we've not seen since Feb, this am, then was ok for lunch at another friends, then we walked to very close by country park and she burst into tears and has been sobbing on and off ever since, seems her ear ache is back again, although she swore blind, she was ok this am, as she didn't want to go to 'local' hosp (who I know will sort her out, as had to take ss there last year with similar thing on a sat pm) what to do eh, have said if she wakes tonight, she's defo being taken to local hosp tomorrow am, am so not having Sunday night a broken sleep night, if drugs can be obtained!

Frizbe · 28/04/2007 19:52

Flame help

2boysmacca · 28/04/2007 20:03

I'm here. Where is Flame? I need a link too since I'm a bad disposable user

Just had my starter but will be abck after my main

Flamesparrow · 28/04/2007 20:07

Awww, yup I'm with you - if she cries about it again (or anything that isn't just tiredness) then take her.

Earache is horrible

Will give Macca as long as it takes me to sort some orders out!

CantSleepWontSleep · 28/04/2007 20:09

flame - remind me what size your new bras are?

OP posts:
2boysmacca · 28/04/2007 20:22

They weren't bras they were over the shoulder, boulder holders!

I'm back, but you'll need to shout loudly for my attention as I'm gonna sit over there on the sofa.

2boysmacca · 28/04/2007 20:38

They've amde a mistake on Joseph tonight, he was much better (sorry, not watched all of it so can't give names). Ds just gone to bed for the 2nd time tonight!

CantSleepWontSleep · 28/04/2007 20:47

Am watching behind time, so don't give anything away please!!

OP posts:
2boysmacca · 28/04/2007 21:02

ds just gone back to bed, for the 3rd time.....

PhoenixGirl · 28/04/2007 21:05

Flame

Flamesparrow · 28/04/2007 21:06

32F

Jam Tots Eezi-folds now in stock

As far as I am aware no-one else in the UK stocks them Been trying it out yesterday and today and it seems a nice nappy - slim, absorbant, and dries quickly.

CantSleepWontSleep · 28/04/2007 21:17

Macca - what were they wrong about then - just seen one guy go home, and he was absolutely definitely the right choice based on tonight's performances.

Bugger flame. Wasn't someone after 34FF or G?

OP posts:
Flamesparrow · 28/04/2007 21:20

arse

2boysmacca · 28/04/2007 21:31

Oh I like the look of those Flame. I used to be a tots bots and B Mio, but they look pretty dam cool.

32F, now that ain't fair. Slim back and big tits. i hope they sag alot

I am now officially a member of the gym I was hoping to get there tomorrow but I have lots of cleaning and ironing to do before dh watches the arse match tomorrow.

We've had a very unproductive day today. Both boys have been playing up a lot and that has lead to harsh words between me and dh. However, ds has been very cute tonight when he's been up past his bedtime, fortunately for him!

2boysmacca · 28/04/2007 21:46

I've just had a real wander thrugh your site Flame and the nappy folds was fantastic. I used to leave a pile of terry's at my mums so I didn't have to cart and I could not find a site that would give the different folds. The only one my mum could rememebr was the kite fold. i spent hours and hours searching on the internet for different ones and found zilch. If you've set yourself up on google, make sure that that section is a search term/key word. If I'd have found that, I'd have bought from you!

2boysmacca · 28/04/2007 21:53

Not sure what sort of help this is, but when I was purchasing, this is the sitw which was most useful to me

kittykins

They've upgraded a lot since I purchased but I found them really helpful. Not that i think yor site is in any way inferior, but it's good to eye up the competion and I guess the girls here didn't scour the internet for hours, just got great advice from you

Tell me to shut up if I'm insulting

2boysmacca · 28/04/2007 21:56

My typing tonight is crap, I'm gonna retire.

I've just spent the past 45 minutes talking to myself

Flamesparrow · 28/04/2007 21:59

I have a nappy folds bit?? I'm confuuuuuused

Kittykins is a great site - I really need to get working on more of the general information bits so it is a helpful site as well as a shop.

I have so much to work on, far too many ideas and my brain ends up melting

Have found out that the local children centre thing (does baby groups etc) does a thing for studying parents with a place to study and a free creche... am looking into whether or not I can use it to get a couple of hours uninterrupted work done.

CantSleepWontSleep · 28/04/2007 22:11

WTF is Seamus doing bottom in the audience vote?!?!?! He's one of my 3 favourites!

OP posts:
Frizbe · 28/04/2007 22:55

CSWS totally agree with you there, can't belive they've kicked him off, total fix somewhere, surely it should have been the other chap, who was in the 1st lot to nearly get kicked out, who should have been booted 2nd time round.

Macca at talking to yourself, its usually me who ends up doing that!

Flame, the sites looking good

So dd1 hasn't woken up yet.....bet she does about 10 mins after I go to bed dh has admitted defeat and gone to bed, but I'm just not tired enough yet

Frizbe · 28/04/2007 22:58

Flame at a train station!

Flamesparrow · 28/04/2007 23:03

Definately more a stop than a station... a little diddy hut! Not like waterloo or anything
