Unable to sleep thought I'd see what had been going on and saw we were due a new thread. Hope this is OK?

Woo.....DD's old pram is GONE from this house, never to return . We only got a third of what we paid for it and part of it was new and unused, but better than it cluttering up the loft for nothing.....

I have made £160 in the last week....long live ebay!

How's the cake coming along foxy?

Ohforfoxsake · 11/07/2009 18:59

Cake is done and is respectable thanks Daisy

Rialentless · 11/07/2009 19:01

should not go to tesco when on week one of sertraline

happy birthday to the foxcub

LittleMissNorty · 11/07/2009 19:46

What sort of cake have you made Foxy?

We went to Asda this afternoon and ended up with 2 trolleys with one child in each. E has realised he can pull K's hair from his seat and after 10 minutes of him laughing and her screaming, we split up! Is this the end of me taking the two of them to Sainsbury's on my own??!!

LittleMissNorty · 11/07/2009 19:48

That's great Daisy.....doesn't matter what you paid, at least its gone and you got something for it. We are about to use some of our hard-earned boot fair money on dinner

LackaDAISYcal · 11/07/2009 19:57

We just got the quote for our bathroom

JammyQueenOfTheSewers · 11/07/2009 19:59

Ooooh go on Daisy, do tell!

LittleMissNorty · 11/07/2009 20:00

bit more than £160 then?

LackaDAISYcal · 11/07/2009 20:05

lol Norty just a bit!

It has come in at £2600 and that is with us supplying the suite and the tiles . It's a big job though and the loo is separate so lots of tiling needed...and the electrician is going to renew our dostribution board on preparation for getting completely rewired

It will be lovely when it's finished though and I might even find myself wanting to spend time in it!!

JammyQueenOfTheSewers · 11/07/2009 20:10

Daisy. but you will feel better for it.

Fuck me I am tired.

More guests over. walked to the pub, ate too much, DS was a little star though and ate all of DH's fish and chips and 2 servings of butterscotch banana crepes with ice cream. And a cheese sandwich. Then came home and had 2 slices of peanut butter on toast.
Sodding gannet that he is.

Foxy I read that webchat, fkin hysterical.
And well done you making a cake. I struggle with making a loaf of bread these days. In fact I am so lazy nowadays I just bought a chest freezer and tomorrow I am going to costco to fill it up with hoardes of junk like chicken kievs and other random bulk buy things that I will no doubt forget I have and revisit in 5 years time.

I have a pedicure on tuesday

TheNatty · 11/07/2009 20:16

evening.. going to catch up

TheNatty · 11/07/2009 20:26

sorry bout boobs daisy

well done you making a cake foxy, DH made me a cake today he called it my 'push present' i must say i prefer daisys push pressie

things good here, healing quickly (not quick enough tho ) managed to catch up with washing and clean kitchen so feel much better.
felt a bit weepy when i woke up but the cleaning fixed that.

MIL didnt bother coming in the end, so i didnt even get dressed today

LackaDAISYcal · 11/07/2009 20:40

natty, I didn't get dressed until DS2 was about six weeks old!

lol at your push pressie...mine was less of a push pressie and more of a "will you stop effing nagging about it NOW woman" pressie

pedicure sounds good fury . I think DD eats less in a day than your DS eats in one meal. I wish she would eat better.

Her face is an absolute mess with contact dermatitis....after rubbing undiluted shower gel into her face yesterday "got cream on mummy" and then some of my suncream today.

JammyQueenOfTheSewers · 11/07/2009 20:45

Can't say I'm a fan of the term "push pressie" but I don't remember getting one, so maybe I'd have felt differently if I had? DH did plan me a special dinner for when I got home, but then I was home a day later than we expected so he'd had to eat it (as it had been bought from the last day of sale reduced to clear section ). He was quite upset about it. I was just pleased to have anything hot as I'd been living off sandwiches for 4 days.

oh daisy ur poor DDv

LackaDAISYcal · 11/07/2009 21:16

Sounds like a name that will go far Natty...now get him down the registry office before he changes his mind!!

When's DH's operation?

TheNatty · 11/07/2009 21:19

they have moved his op daisy! thought i had put it but baby stuff has taken over i think

no op till the 25th august so another month of useless DH cos he is in pain

ah well shit happens (esp with the NHS)

LittleMissNorty · 11/07/2009 22:22

My op has come through for 10th Aug and I can't make it! Hospital are going to be pissed off with me!

Bathroom will be lovely Daisy

Just watched a film for the first time in months (butterfly on a wheel) and it was crap. Typical!

Rialentless · 11/07/2009 22:28

well done on deciding Natty (I believe that was DHs grandads full name, so he'll be chuffed for you

am pleased i missed Torchwood! (DH has a theory about Capt. Jack realigning time though, for a happy start to the new series)

LackaDAISYcal · 11/07/2009 22:36

Norty, I'm sure there will be someone scheduled for a couple of weeks later then you who will love to have their op moved forwards....I just hope that it doesn't mean you have to wiat another 18 weeks!

One of my Nov chums is getting hers out, but is getting it done on the NHS but at the local private hospital.

LackaDAISYcal · 11/07/2009 23:20

I've just been reading the Chris Corcoran webchat thread and PMSL...and also feeling a bit out on a limb as i have no idea what Doodle Do is.

I suspect it was aired in the three years between DS1 losing interest in CBeebies and DD realising CBeebies existed!

JammyQueenOfTheSewers · 11/07/2009 23:39

I've watched doodle-do with jamlet, but probably when she was too young to appreciate it as anything more than moving colourful stuff. I quite like him myself.

Went to bed early as exhausted (bloody Oxford so full of bloody tourists milling about 8 abreast the pavement that it is draining trying to go shopping there on a Saturday) but can't sleep so I have got up again.

Daisy, hope DD is OK after her self-lotioning exploits. And hope your mastitis doesn't last. And Natty, for the name - both the name itself and the fact you've decided. And for postponed operations.

HellHathNoFury · 12/07/2009 08:59

lovely name Natty, very classic.

How's the sore tittage Daisy? Poor you!

Today I am going to Costco, as I have just plugged in my shiny new chest freezer and now I must fill it with cheap junk.

LackaDAISYcal · 12/07/2009 09:08

tittage is less sore thankfully.

DD has up to press had really good diction and we have never had any trouble understanding her. she is now slurring all her words together and not pronouncing things properly . Should this concern me? or is it a normal thing? Can't remember it with DS, but that's not to say he didn't do the same thing.
