DS slept in the buggy while I walked past roadworks with the pneumatic drill going this afternoon

I had planned on letting the dds dress up and answer the door this year (I've always refused even that before now, and spent the evening with christian friends who are seriously anti Halloween (hypocrite))
But disco/brownies has saved me even that. No idea what I will do with the bags of cr*p sweets I bought in preparation though.

Jas, I think he will sleep through it but it'll just be the getting to sleep bit, unless he's got over his fear of loud bangs lol.

Dd slept through all the fireworks no problem last year. Though she would wake up screaming if you dropped a sheet of loo roll in the bathroom

Jas- whats weird about the neighbours?

Taking a two year old trick or treating after my 8 yr old has gone to bed isn't weird enough?

They both (I think) have learning difficulties, and very poor social skills. To the point where I look like a social butterfly when around them.
Very judgmental of me. Sorry

Sorry missed the part about it being gone 8 o clock! Yes- I'm a stickler for bedtime, mainly because I know she can't cope if she's late to bed, gets very distraught with tiredness, etc.

I thought you meant odd as in they look like witches or something, not LD!

Blimey - I nip off to sort stuff out and you all come online!

Thanks mamamoor - feel like I know you much better now .

We don't tend to get trick or treaters at all. I wonder why .

We took dd to fireworks last year though, and will prob do the same this year. Just need to check which day they are on in the village.

mrm - we have fairly similar buttie boxes then. That's good. DD also has some bean salad and some prawn mayo (needed using!). No idea if she will eat either though!

There's a woman down the road like that Jas; she's told everyone every sinlge detail of all 4 of her c sections , plus lots of other weird comments etc. Oh well.

We're going to a friend for halloween; has become tradition! Party starts 3.30pm, and after dark is trick or treating on a preplanned route of neighbours that have bee nasked and agreed.

Going to bed. Only intended to be on here 5 mins! In fact, I was supposed to fix the toilet seat as soon as the boys were asleep. Oh well.

I like couscous for meals out for dd- chop up tomato, cucumber, mushrooms, soak couscous 10 mins, add herbs/mint, little little bit of chili powder, tomato pureee, anything really,. She wolfs it!

Hmmm. You need to see my dd eat to understand why that generally isn't a good idea!!

And ds1 would rather die than eat cous cous. He's possibly the owrst eater in the entire toddler universe.

lol @ the idea of your dd and couscous on a day out csws.
Also at any trick or treaters making it to your house.

I really need to go, too. I've been on here for hours, ignoring dp, while he makes me cups of tea

csws should be very scared... if there's a knock on her door at halloween, it could only be a real ghoster

I'm lost, you've officially lost me, you've all been yabbering that much

for all poorly kids out there and for was it mm's dh driving into the barrier?
I was nearly called Emily, but my mum got her own way

Grapes and crackers are my random idea to chuck in a butty box? would say cheese as well, but no good for you CSWS.

Have purchased my 1st 3 xmas prezzies on b2get3rd free at Sainsbo's tonight. That's Mum, Gran and a friend sorted!

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/1375/411283?rnd=1193175146007 don't miss this thread.

Well dd takes after her dad who is known in these parts as 'the foodwh*re' - she will eat anything. Sorry, didn't realise you had problems feeding them

Cheese is ok here now Friz. Did I not say? DD has been drinking bits of cows milk without ill effect for a couple of weeks now .

Have mini cheddars for snack, but dd doesn't do fruit. Tis the food of the devil dontcha know .

Right, I'm off to bed too. Need a decent night if I'm to drive half way across the country and back tomorrow, and dd had me up for quite a while in the middle of the night last night, so need to be prepared in case she does it again.

DH also off to Peru at 5am, so hoping he/taxi doesn't wake me.

And I've just read Frizbe's post as ' for all the poor kids out there called Emily...'
roffle

Ah yes, I was on there early Friz .

No problem feeding dd EPPM - she's just very messy! Has always (well, since 7 months) insisted on feeding herself, and can involve much flinging/dropping! She's quite happy to eat food off the floor though .

lol!

'She's quite happy to eat food off the floor though grin.' - I think it adds flavour or something!

Couscous is a little messy if they don't concentrate...

lol, have a good day then tomorrow CSWS, I've gotta drive upto Leeds to get ss before 10am.....then get back for swim at 12:30 having fed everyone inbetween....oh joy.....
I don't recall you mentioning better with dairy, but Hurrah!

Lol at the thought of dh driving anywhere! He only had a car for the first year we were together (which was an obvious attraction, that he then wrote off )

Friz, how's MrFrizbe's nether regions now?

Superb other thread!

Er, I think I might start a thread on this when I can be bothered, but I need some good and viable money earning ideas. The constraints are:

Must fit round dh's shifts as we cant afford childcare(shifts change every other week) The only hours he is home more or less every day of every week is 11.30pm to 5.25am!

Must still allow me to sleep, as I dont get a full night anyway, hence I'm permanently knackered!

Must be minimum wage at least!

It would help if it was something interesting.

I dont want to lose all our family time. Hence I decided against John Lewis as that would only give us 2 days a month together, and we'd need to do boring essential stuff too, not just 2 days of hellenistic family activities.

Also need to consider that when dh gets offered last minute O/T he needs to take it, as its then a very good hourly rate.

I could do evenig work at home, but as you all know, my pc skills and typing are shit.

Ideas please!!!

Oh, and I ideally need £150 a month to stop us going overdrawn. See, I'm not greedy! I dont even want money for luxuries

EPPM yep food off the floor is liked here too
