Witch from Hell...

Yup that's me!!! Call it the steroids, call it pregancy hormones...I do not know but i am the witch from hell
Everyone at work has 'had it' today and DH is next on the list if he doesn't bring me home a can of coke...
Any other witches out there? Wonder if there's a cure?

I'm horrible, there is a cure...First, you give birth, then you breastfeed, then a few months after stopping breastfeeding your hormones start to calm down a touch

Don't worry lockets... give it 3 months post BB and no one will remember least Jordan didn't have a girl and steal your name or something, then everyone would have been called Saskia!

I'm not due till October LOL!! I'm 23 weeks on Sunday...look like an elephant

He's a little sod, but a loveable one hope your little ones and you aren't melted into puddles like we are! Eugh I'd hate breastfeeding in this weather, all sweaty like!

I'm 40 weeks today.

Most days am witch from the pits of hell. Occasionally am lovely scrummy wife who bakes filo pastry tarts for husband's homecoming from work.

Depends whether I've had any sleep.

Oh yeah that's another thing, can't stop baking...but the witch from hell seems to return before I get the chance to clean up!

I'm baking too! Oatmeal cookies at 11 p.m. last night and will make strawberry tarts tonight. Though why I feel compelled to stand in a hot kitchen in this heat is beyond me. Hormones?

Mogwai, I have nothing but admiration for you baking at 40 weeks in this weather!

Sorry x posted with your 2nd message.

Yes it was the witch I was upset by. I normally keep quiet but I do find it highly offensive the way it is constantly used as a derogatory term.

That is exactly the kind of witch i meant!!! And i used it so as not to use a very similar word .. em..have i missed something though?

Fastasleep, why is Saint George upset? Can you explain with the witch reference?

I am a witch ChaCha. The old fairy tale images are very insulting to modern day witches.

Well, i had no idea i'm afraid. Only witches I've ever heard of are the type that you'd find in Macbeth or with broomsticks and cauldrons. Perhaps i'm not as cultured as i thought!! Well, am apologising now, you can tell though that it was quite innocent and no harm meant. We can turn this around though..i'm all for simplicity..i'd be interested to know more..I love learning..Love chacha x
