This is what happens, jynier

Continue uninterrupted....

Glad the misunderstanding has been put to bed.
I have neither snow nor hills. I do have an airport about 2 KM away as the eagle flies (we've loads of those), a lake with a running track round it and about a thousand noisy students living in my block.
Today, I must sort out an egg box to plant some seeds in. I teach refugees twice a week. I am science - although only biology, we can't do anything else.
We are supposed to be learning about how living things differ from not living things and it's bloody hard going. My seven students vary in age from 6-12 and we are using a text book aimed at four year olds.
One of the experiments was getting two fish, putting them in separate jars and dripping oil on top of one. They were supposed to guess which fish survived.
I am planning to grow chill and tomatoes and deprive one lot of each of light.
Much more humane.

Morning all just been catching up on thread

Kitty we watching the 3rd seris of the walking ... very good but still cant watch it when zombies attack and then get killed or re-deaded have to have tv on mute

All is well in the stars flat got 5 hours of work today finished at 22:00 home bathed a bit of sexy time dinner

Hope all is good with you all. Hugs though for those that need them

On Sunday got tx from dd for morhers day and I got a tx from dd's boyfriend bless him brownies points for the future son in law.

I'm just in and out as my sweet babu has gone off again quickly so. not here

stars glad you got some naughtynaughty work I'm really looking forward to the 3rd series. Dying to know who the hooded person is at the end of the 2nd series

You are, of course wrong; the zombie crunching is the best part . They always come up with inventive new ways of doing it

Who are your favourite characters? Mine are Dale and Andrea and Daryl. I love how Daryl is gaining in emotional intelligence.

cafe I know They didn't even give me a medal; just let me leave with a snuffly baby

Jealous of your 2 hour leg it

themidwife I hope you and your hills are fast asleep

Oh well! No-one here! The original post was "Why Are So Many People Up At This Hour?" I know why I am.

I don't know what that Zombie thing is I'm afraid. We've just finished watching boardwalk empire second series. It was fab. I did watch a bit of game of thrones, but the only decent one was the Imp and I think he got killed last night.
I've/we've got very sad lives ATM. I wrote on the calendar to remind me to watch the second part of civilization. It's shown on the Aus channel we get.

I am still up, been having night terrors recently :(

mabongwen - Why? What's wrong? Hope that you're feeling a bit better by now but you can let it all out one here! Best wishes, x

grapes - Hope that your DS feels better soon; teething is dreadful for so many babies (and their mums!). Can remember when I was young of mothers slitting the gums of their little ones with razor blades to "ease" their pain!

jynier that's awful!

New to this thread.

Up because today is the second anniversary of my marriage falling apart.

A year ago my mum died.

I lost my home due to the divorce 8 months ago.

DD left home.

Got great new job soon after separating, now I'm officially 'at risk' due to the NHS being dismantled.

In the wee small hours of today I'm wondering wtf next. Ironically I'm seeing ex h tonight at my request, after a long period of NC because he can help me fight for my job.

I feel completely detached from everyone and everything.

Sorry, this looks like such a fun thread for those who aren't tucked up snugly.

I'm just sitting here with and a cheeky fag and feeling rather sorry for myself. It's a rant, is all.

Yes, it was! My own mother did it to my little bro. Also, many babies died from chewing paint from the rails of their cots (due to high lead content) AND from the use of the old teething powder remedies, which probably contained aspirin. (Won't name the product but often used to be sent up to the shop by my mother for a dose in a special little wrap.)

Saltpig, sounds like you are having an awful time of it at the moment, rant away. So sorry to hear about your Mum and your job. Both DP and I were made redundant at the same time just after DS2 was born. It was soul destroying at the time. Thankfully we are both back in work, although I'm doing something completely different from what I was doing before, and working nights. which is what I'm supposed to be doing now

are you worried about seeing your exh tonight?

I'm here for the next few hours so will make a cup of tea

Saltpig - have only just seen your post. It must seem like the end of your world but, trust me, MN is great and the fantastic posters will help to pull you through all of your difficulties.

Take care of yourself and am sending very best wishes, x

anyone here or have you all gone to the land of nod?

I'm here but down Memory Lane!

I'm here; wasting time, fretting and not being surprised to see you tbh.

The post by grapes has made me wonder why no babies cried all night when I was young? We lived in a huge Irish community in London. Sleep was never disturbed apart from neighbours Friday night drunken fights

hello again jynier

daisy!!!! clearly you are me/I am you/ we are clones or twins or summink....how's Himself? more importantly how's YOU?

jynier re babies not crying all night.... erm mine didn't, the buggers all slept I used to sit there poking watching them. How long ago are we talking?

He's worrying me at the moment and I am lying here listening to him sleep. Not sure how I'm doing - how are you?

dunno either, daisy. I think the "me" frequency in my brain switched off about June last year I know I'm permanently worried/stressed/varying degrees of downers, but nothing more specific than that, as I am sure you know as are in the same boat. no fine tuning or understanding it whatsoever iyswim. resorting to robot strategies to get thru each day.
