the TV remote is in the freezer, your car keys are down the loo, and there are little smears of food at knee height down each corridor!

Sounds fab - will look and see if I have plans.

EPPM - continuing from the makeup thread here because I didn't want it to start on a thread that a lot of people probably have on a watch list Not that I want to be secret because that is impossible on MN, but ykwim. I saw the thread when everything was on it It has changed my views of some people, reinforced others. The whole thing with that is more personal than the makeup addresses imo, when someone is so careful about not telling names like Cod (I was starting to wonder if her son actually was called Algernon ), then it has to be someone she considered a friend, someone very close

Frizbe - she is talking about fairy hammocks - I am stocking them, but they aren't listed yet iyswim. Look on www.weenotions.co.uk And yes, been selling soapnuts for about 6 months now I think

Well, I wouldnt say no to Dog the bounty hunter if he knocked on the door. Does that include EPPM?

Fell asleep half way thruogh a sentence doing my diary last night, spo I guess I was tired too!
I look like I did in about 1988 today, as I've taken out the plaits Flame did for me (dont ask!!) and i've got the crimped look noew

Looked in the fridge... lots of man-snacks, but no juice or cheese for the boys But he didi work really hard... finished painitng the kitchen, siliconed lots of things, put up some tiles blah blah.

mustrunmore · 09/04/2008 07:43

I wanna come frizbe, but I'm too scared Dont know why. I'd be in long-haired-men heaven

CantSleepWontSleep · 09/04/2008 08:36

What thread are you on about flame? You know the rules - link please!

Flame · 09/04/2008 08:53

But if I am with you then you can't be scared. So there.

Not much point in linking to the thread, all the important stuff got deleted

DontDreamItBeIt · 09/04/2008 09:02

I've obviously missed stuff. I have no idea what you are talking about (except the pirate/bounty hunter theme)

I've had a lovely two days with my friend and her ds

I have also put pics onmy profile of the various glasses options (will delete tomorrow, as I look like a zombie in all of them). DP doeesn't like any of them, and we will go out again on Sat and try more.

Flame · 09/04/2008 09:06

I think I like No.1

Is it wrong to snigger at the internet ones?

DontDreamItBeIt · 09/04/2008 09:11

Not wrong at all. I was upset when dp laughed, but do know how awful they are.

EachPeachPearMum · 09/04/2008 09:43

Jas- the more expensive (no 3?) look the same as the ones you originally bought! I think No2- as the red of the glasses in No 1 is a little too close to your hair colour.

mrm- dunno who dog is? I was thinking along the lines of Boba Fett for my career tbh (!)

Flame- I have to dash to work, so I will come back to this issue!

csws- suffice to say that thread was horrible- just downright nasty.

CantSleepWontSleep · 09/04/2008 13:49

Hmmm - not £20 well spent Jas .
I can't comment on the rest, because it doesn't actually look like you in the photos, regardless of the glasses!

mustrunmore · 09/04/2008 18:25

Il8ike the first or cesond. sorry, the intrnet ones are a bit dodgy

so..... skip day..... got a new plastic bin thing for keeping bath toys in... and swingball! happy enough I guess. Oh, and 2 ikea mattress things that nice neighbour was lobbing, and diidnt even get as far asa the skip. And i bicycle bell for dsq=2!!

DontDreamItBeIt · 09/04/2008 21:12

Thanks csws....I don't think I look that bad in rl, but I always look like the living dead in photos. (Hoping that you were suggesting I look slightly more normal usually!)

Skip day doesn't sound as good as it sometimes is, mrm.

Glad you both had a good couple of days

Where is Dame?

Frizbe · 09/04/2008 23:43

I missed the glasses photos!

MRM come and have fun its not scarey, it can't be if we're there!! EPPM you're welcome too! down in Wales, near Bridgend.

Have been mainly dyeing hats this evening and stiching up kit, virtually finished, van to pack tomorrow

CantSleepWontSleep · 10/04/2008 07:28

When do they stop getting you up in the middle of the night every night just for a cuddle?

DontDreamItBeIt · 10/04/2008 07:59

When the youngest is about 5

sorry, but once dd1 stops, ds/dd2 will be doing it!

CantSleepWontSleep · 10/04/2008 08:27

Oh joy, thanks .

mustrunmore · 10/04/2008 09:12

Whatever happens, they'll always take it in turns to be a pita. Ds2 slept in his own bed all night last night. But ds1 was up at 2.30 trying to creep into ours

Friz, I know. but its scary because i'd be doing something for myself without the kids, and i've forgotten how to interact with real people.

So. Ds2 is today wearing the trackie bottoms that ds1 wore at the sart of th wekk, and they fit fine

EachPeachPearMum · 10/04/2008 11:00

What for csws?

Chloe55 · 10/04/2008 19:44

Hiya, sorry for being AWOL. Mind's a little all over the place at the mo, can't seem to make any decisions on my future - be it career and babies!! Will explain in detail when I can be bothered (everything reasonably ok though). Hope you are all well. x

CantSleepWontSleep · 10/04/2008 20:13

Please be bothered Chloe, and we'll kill the fatted calf .

Nyeh · 10/04/2008 21:02

Aww poor calf.

So, I'm 3 days later than ever have been This whole body being broken thing is really starting to annoy. Got doctor tomorrow at 3pm for test results.

Frizbe · 10/04/2008 21:24

lost who dat?

CSWS but it is nice when they do that, sometimes....

MRM well bring the kids! mine are coming, so bring yours too, or if you like just the eldest one?

CantSleepWontSleep · 10/04/2008 21:25

S'flame innit?

Frizbe · 10/04/2008 21:51

Doh! course it is good luck then, hope its just that damn coil causing bother and nothing worse (I hope that sounds how its meant to)

Phoenix · 11/04/2008 09:31

Morning

Hope the docs goes ok Flame and they get to the bottom of what's wrong with you

Dh had a meeting at work yesterday about redundancy (he put in for voluntary) but they won't give it to him. At least his jobs safe for a while but 20 grand would have been nice

Hi Chloe, hope you're ok
