StealthPolarBear · 29/11/2007 11:58

no pressure, of course
so

NorthernLurker · 29/11/2007 12:07

SPB - you've got that test in an envelope already haven't you? And won't you have had to climb over many, many boxes to find it anyway? So no pressure Dippy, honest!

CaptainDippy · 29/11/2007 12:13

That would be hugely appreciated, SPB - Thank you. My email is: captain_dippy "at" yahoo "dot" co "dot" uk, email me and I'll email you back with my adress. xx

CaptainDippy · 29/11/2007 12:24

Beat you to it! Have emailed......

CaptainDippy · 29/11/2007 12:39

bloody hell they are 8 months today!!!!!! and I noly need to look in the mirror to see 8 months worth of bags under my eyes!

mammyjo · 29/11/2007 12:45

Great news about the interview CD! Lots of luck for next week, which job was it for? Sorry, during my short absence I think I may have missed that part!

SPB, get that test in the post right now! That's if you havent already!! Not at all as I have concluded that two is my limit and am happy with that tbh. Very excited to hear of others news though!

Sexonlegs · 29/11/2007 12:48

Hi folks, busy on here today.

CD, how exciting!!!!! Can we get a courier on the case!!!!????

Eddas, I am sorry you are having a down day. You are not in any way crap. The life of a mother is the hardest experience ever. Hope work goes well today. xx

Liath, hope ds is over the vomiting!

SPNB, what a pita re the move. Hope everyone gets their acts together and you are moved soon.

Pinions - I am waiting!!!

Hi Ange, MJ, NL and anyone else I haven't mentioned.

K had a good session at nursery, and neither of us cried! Dh sent me a text bless him to wish us good luck. Seems like they did some art!

mammyjo · 29/11/2007 12:49

Hi oooggs lol at 8 months worth of bags!!

mammyjo · 29/11/2007 12:51

Happy 8 month birthday Jack and Erin!

Where on earth has 8 months gone?!

mammyjo · 29/11/2007 12:53

Hi SOL, glad K got on ok at nursery. Its always tough the first few times isnt it!

Sexonlegs · 29/11/2007 13:17

Hi MJ, it was tough tbh, as K is such a sweet natured little girl, and I find myself thinking "I don't want anyone else to have you"! I know it will do us both good, plus, I need to go back to work financially and mentally.

I have just phoned up about another job - it looks fabulous, and is in my home town which is an added bonus. Felt quite odd tho, as I love my current job, but just intrigued - nosy cow that I am!

mammyjo · 29/11/2007 13:31

Nothing wrong with looking for something new. I have an interview for a new job on Dec 14th (although I am yet to get the official letter confirming it ), dont know whether it is what I really want, but will never know unless I go for it!

Idreamofchocolate · 29/11/2007 13:31

SOL - glad K was all OK at nursery. When do you start back at work?

Dippy!!! - We obviously need to be the first to know (after you of course). I guess I'm a little bit , but my bf and my SIL are both pregnant, so I will have 2 new babies to coo after in the spring and early summer. I have loaned them all my maternity clothes now anyway, so I'd have nothing to wear!

Popped into my work this morning. It was really lovely to see everyone, and I'm now feeling much more positive about going back. My boss is truly lovely!

Sexonlegs · 29/11/2007 13:41

IDOC, I go back on Monday . Dh will be working a 4 day week, so will have the joy that is the school run on a Monday (and looking after K). K will be in nursery on a Tuesday and a Thursday.

Dippy, meant to say good luck with the interview.

Have you thought (I am sure you have) of trying to get some proof reading work - given your degree in English.

Lucewits · 29/11/2007 14:06

Thinking of all you ladies going back to work, it only seems like yesterday that you were all counting down to maternity leave.
Time has just flown by.

to Jack and Erin being 8 months Oooggs

How is the move going SPB?

DD1 and I have got the dreaded lurgy - yuck.

CD

Maveta · 29/11/2007 14:12

I´m not really here, not really here but..

DIPPPPYYYYY!! You are a mentalist. let us know soon as!

Okay off to not be here again...

CaptainDippy · 29/11/2007 14:39

Ooooh, what are these "other" jobs, SOL *MJ!!? You'll be fine once you get into the swing of things - like I said to Eddas earlier, it just takes a while to get used to stuff changing. I am feeling pretty all over the place about this job myself - childcare is going to be a logistical nightmare. Can't get my head round it until they actually tell me whether I've got the job or not. Eeeeeek!

LOL @ SOL's "getting a courier on the case"! I am happy to wait leisurely .....

Pesha · 29/11/2007 14:51

Dippy remind me what the job is?

And for future reference they do pg tests in poundland (for a pound, obviously!!) and its a pack of 2. Worked for me with D!

We have lost the wallet for my car with mot, log book, service history, everything. Currently turning the house upside down. Fuck fuck fuck

Pesha · 29/11/2007 14:53

Thats turning the house upside down in between looking after the baby and mning obviously!

StealthPolarBear · 29/11/2007 15:18
