June 07 - Do we smell? Yes bumper, I'm talking to YOU!!!!

[LackaDAISYcal]

are we all tuning in to penguin-gate later? It's p-p-p-p-p-priceless

I am still in my jammies

the DC seem to have forgotten that I promised them arts and crafts as well

hey everyone

ellen has potty trained
i wanted her to wait till the summer, but no she is having none of it. "no baby mummy" is the responce i get if i dare pull a nappy out

two wees and a poo today, one small accident on way to potty.

im really sad as all her pretty nappies are hanging on the line look so forlorn. better put them away to stop me being hormonal.

nothing exciting going on todaywent to shop in my jammies to get lecky so we dont run out over the weekend.

and DH is home he hasnt had a friday off in yonks.. it feels very odd.

Well we made it out to Focus this morning to buy supplies, so I have an afternoon of polyfilla and painting (touching up bits of damage) ahead of me. And DH is going to put some velux blinds up int eh kitchen I hope. We are truly embracing the bank holiday DIY spirit!

having a shitty bad day here

feel like I'm going to explode with anxiety; DD whinging, bumble won't stop crying and the house is like a bombsite; I tidy one bit turn round and there is mess everywhere. I have barricaded DD in her room trying to get her to go for a nap. she is trying to fight her way out at the minute. feeling like the worst parent in the world and whether it's too early for wine or gin

penguingate will be about to unwrap. It'll be into a new thread before tiger gets back!

daisy.

have you tried that tea that's supposed to be a good pick me up? no idea what it's called. black maybe? or pepper tea?

I have to confess I'm a bit edgy myself, no idea why (apart from not knowing if DH has been paid again and thinking I can't keep us til next Friday on what I have), the downstairs isn't too bad though as DH hoovered yesterday while I was out. Unfortunately they are all upstairs, moving our old and very sad PC out of DS1s room, into DS2s for him to play games on. It wasn't tidy to start with.

lovely baggins has come and snuggled up on the cushions next to me and gone to sleep

bugger. I have just found a disk case with DMs handwriting on it for a photo disk she leant me. Can find the fecking disc. Hope she had a back-up.

Daisy. And hope you find that disc Ria

Jamlet and I just made some chunky monkey cookies. They are in the oven as I type Not that I can eat any

jammy
DH had satay chicken last night and i was very as i cant eat it due to horrendous heartburn it gives me,

hope your afternoon is going a little better daisy xx

yum, satay chicken, my favourite (and I had it last night too)

am sorting photos on the PC (DH is being an arse and implying it's my fault they are so disorganised. I may have to penguin-slap him)

Ok, I gave in and had one

lmao ria.. DONT! that thread has had me and DH in stiches all day. i keep asking him "is it cos i smell of fish/cant fly"

nsughty girl jammy!

The penguin has landed!

enjoy the puppies butterfly. are you [asd] you aren't bringing one home with you? what breed?

about halfway through the photos now. DH made a bloody mess of what he was doing - made it much hardwer for me to sort out!

must cook fish...

Hi everyone. Am sure I'm being very dense, but pls could someone link the penguin thread?

Fury - I know you are a bit of a whizz with Thai food. We have guests next weekend and Dh and I wanted to try and do a thai feast for them. I am happy to find recipes online and we have a thai supermarket so ingredients are not a problem, but I wondered if you could suggest some dishes which might go well together? the only thing we have to avoid is dairy. Will be feeding 7 adults and my 2 DCs.

do you have plenty of time fairy? penguin thread 1

thread 2

Phew! Have just finished thread 2. It's a corker!

ria, you are having a grand old time on the penguin threads

very very funny threads and caused a lot of neglect here

But...we did do art stuff this afternoon. DD is going to be a true artist and was working in mixed media....watercolour, acrylic, and my lovely, expensive L'Occitance hand cream ...a whole bloody tube of it . that'll teach me to come over all alpha mummy and try and cook a roast while the DC were painting. clothes are looking pretty trashed as well, inspite of aprons!!

She also pre-treated the nappy liners with metanium earlier!

LOL at pre-treated Daisy!

Ewww, someone is offering 'torture' equipment on Freecycle. Pash Lash, nipple clamps and more seems wrong. 'Hardly used' apparently!

g'wan foxy, you know you want to

I need more wine.

Is it wrong to consider giving bumble some formula tonight......I feel totally and uterly wrung out

Eeewwwwwwww indeed Foxy.

Right, I have "done Davina" to work off that cookie I had earlier, and used a few sprays of oil instead of the 6 tablespoons mentioned in the curry recipe. Tasted fine though, and think of all those calories I saved

OK, going to watch s film with DH (prob Indiana Jones). Have fun everyone!

Pah! They've been taken

Sorry to hear that Daisy (that you are wrung out, not that you are considering giving him a bottle of formula!). If you want to, then do it. Give yourself a break.
