Penis, penis I'm wearing a penis!!

RiallyEeRiaee · 17/10/2008 20:24

TBH I wouldn't mind one of those holly, given that my nervous dispoition makes piggybacks an anxious experience for everyone concerned

DS1 has gone on a night walk over the fields with his church group. He is out til 9.45. I have a stress headache PFB at 11 1/2

and I've buggered up my diet (again)

lol holly

I've been around, but sadly neglecting my PN buddies

I've eaten far too many maltesers and feel a bit

My nipples feel like they are being stuck with hot needles.

and I can't get comfortable on the sofa.

I'm fed up with pregnancy now and want this baby out

Ohforfoxsake · 17/10/2008 20:29

LOL Catchy little number innit?

am stuffed full of chilli, rice and nachos.

and maltesers, marshmallows, smartie cakes, twigletts and crisps thats not a blush, but a fat cheeked emoticon

HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 20:34

Right that's better, someone to talk to!

Hi daisy and ria! I am MNing with a glass of wine whilst my dcs watch peppa pig dvd in the other room.

Am I a bad mother?

Probably yes, but I don't care !

Daisy, you poor thing. I hate that "get this thing out of me now" stage. You have my deepest sympathies!

Ria, I shall be all PFB with dd when she is 47! I am v PFB with her poor girl!

HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 20:34

Hi foxy! 'Tis indeed a catchy little number!

HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 20:38

Grrrrr.... poor dp has just gone up to get the boys (well boy) and his exw went out when he got there for an hour to get pizzas from Pizza Express! Pizza Express? What is she made of fucking money? Here I am having to use my Christmas money to pay for her son's phone bill whilst she is swanning about buy expensive pizza! Now dp is stuck behind an accident on the m3 because he had to leave an hour later than he would have done.

HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 20:40

Oh I take that back. It's cheaper than Dominoes!

justbeme · 17/10/2008 20:43

Hi - found you! Hope you are all ok??
Quickly read that poor Chloe wasn't too good a day or so ago - any update?

LO has just started to say a few "words" in the last day - Car, Bye, Cup. Maybe she's on a roll!

Oh and I went out to a corset evening this week and actually tried one on (my friend had been to a Burlesque evening like Bumper!) Nice, but I felt too exposed!! plus didnt think it would go down too well at the baby groups as thats all my social life consists of!!

HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 20:47

Hi jbm. That sounds like fun! I understand the feeling exposing thing though, I think I would too. I'd love to try one on just to see how giant it makes my milky old boobs look!

HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 20:48

Well done to dd as well!

RiallyEeRiaee · 17/10/2008 21:08

hi JBM.

for you holly. can DP refuse to pay the bill or is the phone in his name?

baggins can say tractor. cat and sshhhhhh, which is keys, shoes or whatever. well done toyour DD jbm.

I am waiting for DH to provide me with wine. I am feeling sorry for myself (nothing new there then)

OP posts:
HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 21:17

Ds says tractor too ria. I remember it being one of my little bro's first words. It must be a boy thing!

The phone is in dp's name. I am just pissed off about me having to use the money that I've saved for my dcs' Christmas to pay for it. I'm pissed off with dp as well for getting it for him in the first place. Grrr...I am due some money from the NCT sale and I have got more stuff in NCT sales in a couple of weeks too, so hopefully that should cover the deficit.

Why you feeling sorry for yourself? Just generally pissed off?

Ohforfoxsake · 17/10/2008 21:24

Holly, why isn't anyone telling him he has to pay it back? Either working it off or getting a job to cover it. Or, DP tells him thats all fine, he's had his Christmas pressie early? Even if DP is feeling guilty for not being there, he's not doing his boy any favours by letting him get away with it. He'll only carry on fucking up. At a guess. I know nothing of this situation really.

Would never have got away with it in my day

Ohforfoxsake · 17/10/2008 21:26

LO's favourite words are
maaamaaa
maaaMAAAA

MAAAMAAAAA

and

MAAAAMAAAAAA

sometimes she says ta, again and spongebob squarepants

I think I should probably make more of an effort

HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 21:28

I know foxy, he tries to compensate by giving them things, which makes them take him for granted and then they think that he is a limitless supplier of cash/goods. Dp has already said he is not getting a Christmas or birthday present (his birthday is in dec), so hopefully he'll stick to his guns and not give in.

Would never have got away with it in my day either, but then I wouldn't have taken the piss out of my parents like that!

RiallyEeRiaee · 17/10/2008 21:34

good suggestions there foxy. GET A JOB being apt I think.

baggins likes to copy the way the others shout for me and DH (fecking annoying). He doesn't say mummy or even mama (which DS1 called me for aged) just MAM in the manner of DHs famile

We took baggins to the beach this morning (will put photos on FB later - he loved it). And silly fat cow me slipped on the cobbled path and landed on my arse (and bruised my bum and my pride). My left leg is feeling very sciatic and my heel is numb-er than normal and I'm starting to feel a bit achey. Just hope I can walk tomorrow.

Ohforfoxsake · 17/10/2008 21:35

It must be so hard all round, for everyone but in very different ways. Not only for the whole step-family thing, but teenagers. 'Orrible, spotty hooded youths. Can't wait

RiallyEeRiaee · 17/10/2008 21:36

for my DHs DS, sorry holly.

Ohforfoxsake · 17/10/2008 21:38

While you're on FB Ria, FB me and tell me where you live If you live near to where I think you live, I have a notion of buying a small place somewhere as a rental/second home when we move.

It is a notion at the mo, but DP agreed to it this morning. Although I think he may have still been drunk as he didn't get home til 3am

LackaDAISYcal · 17/10/2008 21:45

DD calls me mommeeeeee in a very American sounding voice; tis really really cute . She has started using it to alert me to things being not quite right; like the gate left open, that she has poured water on the floor etc. We are working on please and thank you, but thanks in no part to DS, her way of asking for things is to say Gimme Me, or else "the name of the thing" Me...like Nana Me etc.

Wish i knew PE is cheaper than dominoes...they are next door to each other here but we usually go to PE for takeaway.

JammyOLantern · 17/10/2008 21:50

Jamlet's fave words sound like they match your DD's Foxy

HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 21:58

Ds does that daisy. He comes and tells me when stuff is wrong, for example just now when he got hold of a Sharpie and drew all over his sleepsuit! He came and showed me! Earlier he came and told me he had pooed! I couldn't believe it. He pointed to his nappy and went uh uh and looked sad!

Apparently dp's eldest has left school as well. Dp is not happy. He was there when dp picked ds2 up and he didn't even speak to him. Not one word. Dp was expecting an apology, but it didn't happen. He has a serious attitude problem and I can't see his mum putting up with it for much longer. He can't stick a job either. Dp arranged for him to work with one of his friends who has his own building company over the summer. It all went tits up because he was a lazy arse and kept falling asleep at work!

I am not looking forward to having teenagers!

Ohforfoxsake · 17/10/2008 21:58

How are you feeling Jammy?

And Daisy?

Ria, I just sent you a message on FB but had to close it as it makes everything soooo slow on my PC. I'm trying to download from Itunes (ooh, get me! Abba and The Carpenters so far )

HollyWeen · 17/10/2008 21:58

Jammy, how did it go today?
