Have a good meet up all, enjoy all those cakes and KK's

AbbyLou · 18/04/2008 08:11

Morning guys - have a great meet up today! Someone eat a big piece of LG&T's chocolate for me!

TheProdigalShow · 18/04/2008 08:13

I was going to come until I got up this morning and some numpty has caused some kind of numpty accident and halted the ability of any kind of public transport to get out of this flat, back end of nowhere hickville, which you can't get out of anyways as at 5am on every other day everybody lines their cars/tractors/ploughs up, puts their foot down and hopes that today will be the day when they eventually escape the dull inanity of their lives and cross the walled, armoured and inpenetrable border of Norfolkio. Bitter, moi?

So enjoy your KKs. I'm happy with my granola and banana thanks very much. I may go down the garden and eat a worm if I'm hungry later.

Lups - we have got a super king size ha ha x

Have a nice time today. I'm sulking.

Bloody internet!!!

for some bizarre reason I have had no interent connection since yesterday morning, today its fine

Was planning on going to the meet today but then realised I have no idea where LG&T lives Was about to email her when E let out a blood curdling scream. He landed awkwardly on his foot as he jumped out of bed and is currently on the sofa with a slightly swollen ankle Ive put an ice pack on it and am hoping its fine but at the moment he cant walk on it without yelling out in pain. Dont think dragging him around on buses and trains is a good idea at the moment lol

Alana is officially walking now!!!! She has been taking quite a few steps for a while now but last night she was walking back and forward the length of the living room and has even mastered turning round. She tried running at one point but fell flat on her face She still crawls a lot though, at the moment it gets her from AtoB a bit quicker than walking does but im sure it wont be long before shes on two feet permanently.

My two boys are driving me nuts, they cant seem to get up in the mornings without a full blown war breaking out. Even with E injured on the sofa they are still managing to find things to fight about. I really cant wait until Monday when they are back at school.

Glad most of you said I should pinch my vent back, had thought of it but thought it was a bit naughty but seeing as you all gave me the go ahead I guess its ok Im going to take it, leave it a few days then put it on mine. If she comments that hers has gone missing Im going to say that its funny because mine went missing too but we've replaced it with one from B&Q (and it will have my name on it lol)

Hi LGT can't find your phone number, but am off to wake Georgie and if we don't miss bus, should be with you about 2! Save me a crispy creme! G might look a bit odd - he has got half a haircut he kicked off halfway at the hairdressers XX

LookattheLottie · 18/04/2008 13:00

Hope you all have a lovely meet up today

I've lost 5 pounds as my diet (seriously) started this week, walked 11.52 miles with Charlotte yesterday! Off out for another walk once the sleeping beast awakes lol. 21st Birthday in a couple of weeks and really wanting to loose a stone for it, well actually 3 but there are limits to what I can do!!! It's bucketing down with rain but I'm not being put off!

Off for a quick shower, have a great day all x

LookattheLottie · 18/04/2008 13:03

Oh and a bird crapped on my head yesterday, it's supposed to be lucky..... I've never washed my hair so much in all my life and seriously think I used the best part of a new bottle of shampoo.

Pinkjenny · 18/04/2008 13:22

LW - all that walking is no good for you, missy. Sit down and relax, .

Am so hacked off about this job ladies, I feel like crying. There is no feedback, no negative and no positive, just 'someone else fitted our mould more closely'. I can't seem to let it go!

SOH - where've you been all my life!

Lupins71 · 18/04/2008 14:07

PJ I am serously jealous at your bed - whats happened with your job, what have i missed

LW I am seriously at your weight loss and your youth

I just got the fire ripping as its chilly today and dd suggested a go on the wii, am sweating buckets!!

Argggg just looked down and ds suckiing my power supply to laptop what is it with boys and wires? must pay more attention to children as stop gassing to invisible buddies

TheProdigalShow · 18/04/2008 14:34

PJ m'lovely, I was thinking about you in bed last night. Ooh er.

At mothers and toddlers on Tues a very snotty and sneezy little boy kept cuddling Mathilda (I mean who can blame him?) and a small part of me kept thinking 'oh God she's going to be ill now isn't she?' Given the incubation of the common cold, I knew last night was 'the night' and I started sneezing, got a sore throat etc. DH lay there watching me sneeze and sarcastically said 'don't tell me, what if M gets it, what if it's actually the plague, what if she sucuumbs to it, what's her temperature now do you think, should we put her in a bubble' etc etc. Thinks he's funny. I lay there and thought 'PinkJenny'd understand'. I'm crap when she's ill. Always seems to get a secondary infections and I can't relax. It's things out of my control you see. Like job interviews.

I feel your pain, honest I do. I'm used to getting the job and if I didn't I'd be in a pool of angst and asking why why why? The answer of course is because they're stupid and haven't seen your fab slippers.

In fact, are you me? Keep saying things like, must get dd into her own bed and try some sleep training, can't bear it at all though and do nowt about it.

Oh and at TonicWoman being posh. I'd say sommat about fur coats and knickers but she'll lamp me one with her tiara.

Pinkjenny · 18/04/2008 14:35

Lups its fab. Nothing really, just didn't get a job I really, really wanted, and didn't feel that the interview questions were appropriate. Am gutted about it, Part Time HR Manager roles are like gold dust in the North West unless you live in Manchester. Which I don't.

Oooh, the fire, I'm on my way. Lexie loves wires too, she also has a bruise on her cheek where she fell on the plug of my mobile phone charger. Bad mummy, bad mummy.

largeginandtonic · 18/04/2008 14:35

They are all here....

TheProdigalShow · 18/04/2008 14:36

Lups, M is currently chewing the phone cord...

I'm not sporty enough for a Wii.

LWatkins (I refuse to acknowledge any other incorrect titles), well done on the weight loss. Have lost 10lb this month, only 10 to go... I'm nowhere near 20 though. Can't remember 20. Er... I ate a lot of gingerbread that year I think.

Pinkjenny · 18/04/2008 14:37

Oh don't start, I'm sitting in work crying over my job. I can't believe you're all sat there with KK's and tea, I'm seriously gutted. Gutted, I tell you.

Pinkjenny · 18/04/2008 14:38

SOH - hello my little lovely. How's you??? Stop being so cryptic and dish about M!!!!!!!

TheProdigalShow · 18/04/2008 14:38

We care not about your little cakey meet-up. We have fires and spit in the general direction of your real life antics. My friends are in the computer.

Pinkjenny · 18/04/2008 14:40

X post - I love you, I've missed you. I love that I'm the role model for neuroses!!!

Would you all scoff if I told you I've just had a 40 minute phone call with a 'sleep nanny' for £80?

LG & T - would it be cheaper if you came and stayed with me and got her to sleep?

TheProdigalShow · 18/04/2008 14:47

I won't scoff. I will offer you my sleep advice for 80p if you want it?

Pinkjenny · 18/04/2008 14:50

How is M's sleeping?

L is rubbish at it, she believes that sleep is for the weak. Anyhoo, the 'sleep nanny' was very lovely and very posh. She gave me some wonderful insightful information like, 'she has total control over the situation' 'you are not setting boundaries' 'you are not giving a clear message regarding bedtime' 'this is between you and her' 'she is learning how to manipulate situations and the consequences of her actions'. She managed to deliver all this news in a non-judgemental way if you can believe that!

L is staying with my parents tomorrow night (only away from me for the 2nd time) whilst dh and I try to 'reconnect'. So am starting with her 'plan' on Sunday. No, I am.
