Im sat in docs crying too!! Lol. I was very stressed yday. Thanks for your kind words basl. Feeling very sick today do just taking things slowly xx

Wow basl you really must become a counsellor.
Now all together

Xmas Grin

Let's all hold each others hands throught he 'festive' period and as basl says look to discovering ourselves anew in the new year.

Today it seems so clear that I should move back to my family and old friends. However there is just the teenie problem of DP.
And of course there's always the chance that tomorrow things will seem different.

Nipper should be picked up today so you never know I might get it before christmas. DD3 is the same as lots of others with bad cough, earache and headache [thankfully stopped now] and generally full of it. She will be much cosier in Nipper methinks.

Sending out good vibes to you all.

Yikes snowing!!!!

Well not much cheer in the shed right now.

I've been paid off today, don't know whether to laugh or cry! I'm hoping it's for the best and I can also start afresh in the new year, so yes lets all hold hands!!

basl · 17/12/2010 14:33

Awwww i lovin it lovin it lovin it,

5in how are you feeling now? I am sure you feel the same as us all? Change change chage is on the Menu for New Years day.

Well i am getting sooo excited for my spooky night. Just been to town and got my self some lovely new clobber for my night and really looking forward to a great laugh with family and friends.

The bus stop i use in town shut due to the weather so i directed me to the other end of town. I could have cried so i asked another lady if she wanted to share a taxi with me? Turns out she is a friend of a friend of mine. What a laugh we had and she is now my friend on FB ahhhhhhh.

It's good to have a wee laugh i think it's the best medicine.

Lillypie i took your advice and treated myself to some lovely gifts today Xmas Grin xx

basl sounds like all ended well in the end.

well roads are like ice rinks here, we had huge blizzard earlier, suprised how much has settled. had luka's xmas party at nursery v.sweet, then onwards up the hill to nursery clinging onto pram for dear life.

Thinking of getting domino's for tea. Just me tate and luka here. Fire going i filled nipper with logs to bring round to front of house! Genius idea. We are toasty indoors.

off to look for any domino's offers now!! Xmas Grin

nicolamumof3 · 17/12/2010 16:39

waaaah domino's not delivering Angry

popping on quickly as off out to pick smething up - but took your advice lillypie, and went and had my top lip waxed todday! I HATE it (the lip) and quite embarrasing obviously, and I am not au fait with beauty places, but we have one on our little shopping precint and I have just come back - hair free, yay! Have never ever had anything done like that for me.

Love you all! xxxxx Xmas Smile

basl · 17/12/2010 17:34

Just back from my lovely mums christmas party. She lets all the grandchildren dress her tree and puts on a wee buffet.

I am a wee bit tipsy as she kept filling me up with wine.

Daniel goes to my sisters on a friday and it just so happens she was going to an organised christmas party. She said he loved it and i think she want's to adopt my son. Xmas Grin she is so smitten with him and i have never ever seen her like this with any niece or nephew.

I think it's because he is a blonde cutie and a wee bit chubby haa haa. x

5ElvesMooningSanta · 17/12/2010 19:52

Basl you are just the sweetest thing!

I am feeling so much better today ladies, yesterday was feelong well enough to eat so had sausages and mash mmmmmmmm. Still have a horrible cough, but back at docs on Monday so hopefully if it doesn;t clear I'll be able to get more anti-bs Have managed to wrap most of the presents as well.

Boys broke up from school today, they are hyper now. DS2's lovely 1:1 bought him a wWll-e puzzle and Wall-e toy. He is Wall-e mad so it made his day.

basl · 17/12/2010 20:09

Ahhh told you she would not mind re the xmas cards. 5in i think your lovely too and have very fond memories of you and i talking about bjcm. I think it was one of your comments that made me go for it.

Think you are an incredible woman to and refuse to call you anything other than 5in as i remember gasping at 5in the bed and thinking how the bloody hell, Well i well and truly know now lol.

So glad your feeling better and know your going to enjoy your christmas.

The lady that is doing the show on Sat just phoned and asked about the weather. They are traveling very far and when i said the forcast did not appear as planned she said she had been asking the angels and laughed. It's my Granny Annie's birthday on the 18th and my Auntie who goes to a spriratual church and cousin who always gets messages are going so i will eat my hair if we don't get something heeee hee

Wish you could all be with me. Such a bad time of year. Maybe if in the new year we book a cheapy deal in a hotel mid way like 5in home town i could book the same folk?

Hello all - long time since I have been on here - just wanted to wish you all a very Happy Christmas Xmas Smile...as I only have 2 buggies now - sold my mb - I wonder if my shed membership has expired!

Dunoon · 17/12/2010 21:19

janx · 17/12/2010 21:39

5ElvesMooningSanta · 17/12/2010 21:50

Hiya Janx. Grin

I have the joy of my BIL's company tomorrow Xmas Hmm. DH is working until 8, so I hav the fun task of going christmas shopping with him for the boys. The Saturday before Christmas, shops shouldn't be that busy Xmas Confused

Basl, I would have loved to come up to your spooky night, shame it was so near Christmas.

Dunoon · 17/12/2010 21:52

Oh well Maclarens are instant entry to the Shed.

5in what joy and you under the weather too.

nicolamumof3 · 17/12/2010 22:03

helloooo janx how are you and your lovely dc? excited about xmas? Maclarens do indeed entitle premium membership to shed.

Very sad day when i gave up my very last maclaren in August Sad

i have micralite packed away ready to use with a carrycot when i get one, and the nipper i use everyday.

Well my lukey not right, still coughing, waking up crying poor lamb, still says his ear hurts. And he's not one to make a fuss. will take him back monday for second opinion.

Basl 5in is indeed a lovely lovely lady i can concur Xmas Grin

right best go check dh bath..i do hope he gets back ok, driving half an hour on country roads, its rather treacherous as all the snow has just frozen its bitter out.

nicolamumof3 · 17/12/2010 22:06

basl you are going to have such a fab time tomorrow, have you had this fresh batch of snow up there too? or are you too far up?! (sorry my map skills not great are they!!)

janx · 17/12/2010 22:13

Hi
Nicola - no maclaren I can't believe it! F&L are so excited about Christmas - L turned three on the 6th - we went to Didcott railway for his birhtday - they put Thomas on on the steam trains and there was Father Christmas too - he was in heaven. F twirls around singing Christmas songs - she loves a celebration. I have a full two weeks off work and so looking forward to not having to rush on the school run and the commute to work....how's everyone?

nicolamumof3 · 17/12/2010 22:25

sounds lovely janx!

my boys are excited too. Well luka is rather bemused by the whole excitement and fuss tbh he's so shy, he hated his nativity bless him. They are growing up too too fast. Tate is 5 in just over a week, and luka nearly 3andhalf. Can't quite believe it.

10weeks tomorrow with dc4 and starting to come out of the yucky phase i think...hope!
