Here we go. I was too sick, sleepy and preoccupied with my weight to notice the old thread running out

Just been laughing at the photos holly! Very very cute!

DKMA · 18/05/2008 22:18

Hello everyone
meant to be working here (doing expenses) but having a little lurk too!

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 18/05/2008 22:18

SEX DRIVE!!! What's one of those?

Glad things are going well though daisy...I bet you are glowing. It does feel like it has gone really quickly.

lackaDAISYcal · 18/05/2008 22:19

hi DKMA....I missed you oh so quiet psot there

foxythesnowfox · 18/05/2008 22:20

Hey DKMA!

I now have one of those too Daisy. Poor DP had to choose, Match of the Day or me last night. I had to hassle him by standing in front of the TV naked until he made the right choice, obviously [puke emoticon]

foxythesnowfox · 18/05/2008 22:21

PMSL at that Barbeque email you sent round DKMA. And at the response from (presumably) DH

RiaButterflew · 18/05/2008 22:21

I do have news on DH. He is starting a 2 week trial tomorrow. I am a bit and though as he has taken a very lowly job cooking snacks in a soft play area. He had an interview at an up and coming hotel with a rosette/aiming for a michelain star tomorrow too.
If I am realistic I can see his point that he needs to work within his capabilities and wants a break from stress, but still it seems a complete waste of his talent/a missed opportunity. I'm sure he knows what he's doing and we do get free entry if it works out

plus I need more money to spend on other peoples crap

RiaButterflew · 18/05/2008 22:22

Oh for my DH wanting to watch MOTD instead of sex...

lackaDAISYcal · 18/05/2008 22:23

lol foxy....my DH seems impervious to my charms at the minute....he's always so bloody knackered from all the travelling back and forth.

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 18/05/2008 22:23

The photos made me laugh too! He is a real little lad. He doesn't crawl anymore at all, he insists on walking everywhere and if there are obsticles (tables, chairs, people etc.) he justs barges through or climbs over. He can even open washing machines and stairgates! I am losing about a pound a day from running after him! I'm hoping to lose a dress size and be a 12 by summer!

Thanks daisy, everyone says she looks like me! It makes me proud, she is a real cutey!

lackaDAISYcal · 18/05/2008 22:28

good luck to your DH for the trial Ria...free entry to soft play is not to be sneezed at....think of all those rainy days in the school hols.

And good luck for the interview as well, although that does sound like the more stressful of the two jobs.

Sputnik · 18/05/2008 22:28

LOl Foxy!

hi sputnik

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 18/05/2008 22:29

PMSL foxy! I have a very interesting mental picture now

Good luck to your dh for the interview ria. Hope he gets it, it sounds like a good job. As for the other job, it may be crappy, but at least it's something for now.

Sputnik · 18/05/2008 22:30

Photos are gorgeous Holly

Hey sputnik! Did you have a good time in Wales?

I forgot to say, I am testing travel systems for M&B mag again! My dining room is like a branch of Mothercare! I should open up for business! ATM I have 6 pushchairs and 4 car seats and 2 more are coming tomorrow! My dp has gone fucking mad!

Sputnik · 18/05/2008 22:32

Hiya Daisy

Foxy - forgot about that email - but it was spot on (well re - my DH anyhow!) and he thought he was very funny copying in everyone on his response! tuh!

I too have re discovered my sex drive .......... but when I have the energy (at the weekends) DH drinks too much wine and I can't face a drunk humping !

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 18/05/2008 22:34

Isn't it funny, this past week I have been a bit of a randy bitch too! After months with no action, my dp thinks he has died and gone to heaven! I think it must be the warm weather, it is reviving our inner sparks!

foxythesnowfox · 18/05/2008 22:35

that or we are all getting fertile again

lackaDAISYcal · 18/05/2008 22:36

any twin ones this time holly?

how did you get picked again...i applied for it as well and wasn't chosen.

so when does Holly's dodgy buggy emporium open for business again

Will be selling the techno...... I love it sooooo much.

Sputnik · 18/05/2008 22:37

Holly, had a great time, thanks hun

Hi Sputnik glad you had a good hols (visit with family)
Ria - glad things are looking up for DH on the job front!
Daisy - glad you're feeling well with bump etc!!

HollyPutTheKettleOn · 18/05/2008 22:42

I fucking hope not foxy! I haven't even had a visit from auntie flo yet! We are being very careful!

No doubles I'm afraid daisy ! This is only testing for an article in the mag itself, not for the awards. You should hear if you have been chosen for that next month I think. I don't think I'm going to be able to keep all of them this time, but I know at least a couple of them I will.

RiaButterflew · 18/05/2008 22:42

It's not happening here...

thank goodness!!! poor DH.

I think he's going to cancel the other interview. I know he's right because something like that would be too much for him just now but (added to the fact it would be double the £££s) it could have turned out to be "the" job. I should not live my personal achievement frustration through his talents
