October 2007- These Little Piggies started throwing tantrums

[FloriaTosca]

The lastest thread for the fabulous women who were due their babies in the October of the Chinese year of the pig and who now have terrible tantrums and delightful cuddles in equal measure from their almost 2 year olds. New and old members welcome to drop in for a chat anytime....

I know i by posting a reply on here brought it to the board, but i simply had no other way of making contact.

anyway i will leave you ladies to your group, i think i lost touch here a long time ago.

the things i have going on are really quite minor things like trying my damndest to keep my relationship from falling apart, looking for somewhere to live for my sons and i, trying to avoid being evicted for £4600 rent arrears, trying to deal with eldests needs, making sure they are met, whilst trying to decide what to do about this pregnancy and dealing with a 2yr old as well...so no i am really not in the mood for rowing over a £7.99 present i bought that went missing in the post.

Dal - hope your FIL is ok.

NC - I really want a wii, I have to suffer Call of Duty on the Xbox at the moment, and your game sounds so much more fun, I would be shattered after two dances too!

Alicet/Muppet/anyone else around - hello!

Right, am going to bed now...

NC and strawberry - Thanks for your wishes

NC - I know what you meant, I hope it's just something minor too...

Les - I don't know what to say to you tbh. 'No other way of making contact', simply not true, you could have phoned her, you said you didn't though for 'no particular reason'. Why make statements that simply aren't true?

I'm sorry you're having so many problems atm but i'm not going to comment on that as it seems you are just bringing them up all of a sudden to gain sympathy and therefore win points in this argument...

Plus, I don't mean to sound harsh but you're not the only one with issues, we're all here offering support for each other for various reasons.

WWAJC I can understand your feeling of taking a backward step but it is only an interrim move and it is a lovely modern house, plenty of space for just you and Anya... I hope the talk with (d)h is calm and civilised ( he might even offer to move there himself to save you the upheaval).... You know my number if you need me for anything.

Alice; sorry you are so tired but as ...we really will have to organise York so you can see your pal again soon (why isn't she on here too?) Like Dal I'm just glad you are popping in when you have time.

Muppet; I sound like something from 'ello'ello ! Atm "operation no night time boobies" is going well...the final push to "operation no boobies at all" has yet to commence

Crochet; I saw on FB that you though
Mairwen was self weaning. How is that going?

Dal; so very sorry to hear that your fil has had to go back in as soon as he got home but better safe than sorry. I hope he is home and completely recovered soon.

Inzi; how are you ? Is sipping through a straw helping at all? Ginger? How is you Gran behaving?

NC; Step away from the Wii, I think "just dance" put my hip out last week and I've not been right since!

Strawberry; you are definately better off without one ...though I can understand your suffering with Call of Duty... can't understand the addiction to that one myself but most of the men I know are obsessed with it.

but as?....I was going to say "but as Dal has already said.."then changed my mind to mention York...think I must be more tired than I thought ...
Night, night.

Hey inzi - How are you? Tried the icy drinks tip yet? Hope you feel better soon..

Floria - Thanks for the well wishes, I hope so too...

Hope operation no boobies carries on going well . Fingers crossed for another reasonable nights sleep x

Inzi - Yeah, lo still kicking me alright, gonna be another little ball of energy like Dylan I think!

Glad you are getting some relief with the lucozade, hope the MS boggs off soon. With you on the insomnia, had about 2 good nights sleep since I fell pg I think so annoying not being able to sleep when it feels like the rest of the world can!

Your poor gran, i'm sure she appreciates having you all there for her especially as you share so many of the happy memories you have of her dh. Keep talking about him with her and remember the good times. I'm sure time will be a great healer..

someone please point out where i have asked ANY of you for donations?? I remember helping some of you out when you needed it but never asked for anything back.

on the times i have popped on and just blurted out a snippet of how things are, i have always said i hope everyone is ok.

i am not after sympathy i just have not said all of whats going on in my life because it would fill the thread itself.

because i am not a "regular" on this thread anymore it doesn't mean i do not read with interest, it doesn't mean anything at all, there are plenty on here who are not regulars but hey ho i guess if your face fits

yes the ever mature biscuit....

people in glass houses and all that eh

ok...

oh and yes it is very mature to delete me off of your fb friends list for those who have....

Morning ladies

Well, after some test and an x-ray and lots of waiting around they let dh and mil bring fil home again. Not sure what time they got back, might have been around 4am. I went to bed around 2.30 after reading cause I couldn't sleep. Dh just catching up on sleep now. The docs just said the pain was due to his ongoing problem and should improve as he does... I'm pretty tired cause I had quite a wakeful nights sleep once I did drop off.

How are the rest of you lovely ladies this morning?

Morning!

Just call me Dopey here. Alex is still allowed bf before bed Inzi so he still settles well (usually) but he toddles into me at least once in the night...last night it was 3am and sadly he asked for milk(thought he had given up on that)..he took the refusal pretty well but wasn't so good at 5.30 and kept nagging, hair pulling with an "ooops, sorry mummy"[grr] and finally switching the radio on at 6.30. Roll on tonight..Dh is back so I'll grab the spare room and let him deal with it.

Dal. glad your fil is home again and it wasn't something to complicate his recovery...hope you get a catch up nap later.

Off to Tescos now...think I'll do a slow cook goulash for dinner tonight...
have a good Friday everyone.

Hey inzi, sorry you've not slept too well too... How's your MS today?

Hey Floria, sorry he was asking for milk again but well done for staying strong. Roll on tonight so you can get a rest whilst dh does 'operation no boobies'

Mmm goulash

Tles - I totally agree with Inzi. You may well have a lot going on in your life but others on this thread do also and seem able to comment on others posts. You did ask for rent contributions and do offer us a lot of things we might want to buy and it does get embarrassing to have to keep saying no. That's not what this thread's for, it's for friendship, supoort and a safe place where we can ask advice and not be judged. If you have stuff to sell, do it on ebay...

You are in arrears with your rent. That's quite a few months to get £4.5k behind yet you were telling us all of what you bought your family for Christmas. Why not cut down and pay the rent??? You have to see that what you say simply doesn't make sense. You couldn't contact NC -well, phone. Simple. You saw what she had posted on FB but still didn't make contact. You could have used a payphone. Friends do that when they have upset each other.

You offered to copy CD's for a lady here took her money for return postage but never sent the CD's back. This lady repeatedly asked but you didn't stick to the deal. You have asked another lady for contributions to your rent/Uniform for ds 1. (and on your Bounty thread have asked your ladies there for the same only last week) We talked on the phone but you kept wanting to know when we could meet up. I felt a little pressured and made excuses but you said that dp was happy to drive you around anytime anywhere. When I was online you always MSM'd me to the point that everytime I turned the computer on, there you were. You had problems with ds 1's school and I gave you advice, you kept posting the same problems on different threads and I asked whether what I had advised you to do helped, you ignored me. I said to write everything in a book, keep evidence then go to the Teacher/Head then the Govenors as they are the ones who employ staff at any state school. I doubt you did that becasue you seem to need to play the sympathy card.

You say you couldn't get online to respond to NC yet you've been on mumset everyday last week apart from Monday. As Alice said you bought this onto our thread, NC had tried to FB you, text you but got no response, yet instead of replying to her directly you bring it out here instead.

Nothing is ever your fault. Every mishap is accompanied by an extremly convoluted tale of events beyond your control and then, just when you feel you're cornered you chuck in the 'my life is so rubbish why are you being so mean?'

I have deleted you from facebook as I don't see the point in having you as a friend. It's not something I ususally do but you don't seem very straightforward.

The isn't immature it's just a sign that people have just run out of things to say to you.

Moving on...

Dal - Am hoping FIL is okay x

Floria - am hoping tonight will be a rest for you with dh helping. Tobes was up at 4.30 this morning. I nearly gave him water but gave in at the last minute and gave him milk [chicken emoticon] He was very sleepy though and only had a few ounces.

Going for a child free coffee now and to write the last few invites I'd forgotton to send

Love to all
xx

Oh my word, I have one busy day and an evening out and the topic goes mad Its taken me ages to read everything

Dal - Hope your FiL is back home again soon, and its good that they took him back in for tests due to his recent illness, you can't be too careful. Also I think its Fab that Alice is there for you too, helping out with news etc, it must be a great comfort.

WWAJC - The house looks lovely, you and Anya should have a fab time there with none of the stress from your DH, I think you are definitely doing the right thing in getting out. Life is far too short to be unhappy.

Muppet - well done in getting back to the running, I need to get myself back in the habit of exercise. I did so well before xmas losing my weight for the black tie do I went to, sadly I ruined all the hard work immediately afterwards and have put half a stone back on so this week I have been good again, and already feel better for it.

I bought the book by Anna Richardson who has that TV show and the recipes in it are fab. I am Day 5 in of no alcohol, no carbs after 6pm, nothing sweet etc but the recipes are all really simple and very tasty, even DH has eaten his dinner the past few nights and said how tasty they have been. Its this book and I really recommend it.

FT - Operation no boobies hope it continues to go well for you, it sounds like its getting better.

Inzi - I hope this morning sickness passes soon for you

NC - My DH suffers from an ulcer periodically, especially when he is stressed and drinking too much, and he had Omeprazole (sp?) that Alicet mentioned from the doctor and it works wonders for him. Hope you get less stressed soon, and I just want to say again, that I really admire you for studying again with two children, I just couldn't do it. So just keep telling yourself that you are doing a fab job under difficult circumstances and you should be proud of yourself

Strawberry - regards Call of Duty! I know what you mean, my DH is on it all the time too, but I can't really complain as I am addicted to Scrabble on FB

My brain has now dribbled out of my ears i can't remember what else I should comment on, I hope I haven't missed out on anything too serious, but thinking of you all, all the same

One brief funny thing that happened this morning, at about 6.30, Ben silently came into the bedroom and stood in the doorway, I groggily told him to go and play in his room for a bit till I woke up properly, he stood there a minute more, did a huge fart, and then very clearly said 'pardon me' and then walked out what a fab way to be woken up still chuckling now.

Hope you all have a fab day

Oops cross posted FT - sorry last night didn't go well fingers crossed for tonight
