Just thought I'd start a new thread, general chit chat, moaning, skipping etc before I go to work and incase the other one fills up.

Something dodgy going on on MN this morning Hmm

My is missing off my previous post and the one before that has vanished altogether! Hmmm.....

Anyway. I'm here LNM, and SOBER so type away. I have DH snoring like a derailed train next to me so we're well suited for company Blush

ChipsNEggs · 30/06/2013 06:05

Sorry bout the snoring! Hope you managed to get some sleep and it wasn't too foghorn like Blush

Hope it's home for you a massive bag of pistachios and some time with your girls. I bet they're missing you terribly too. Nothing like a big hug from someone who loves you unconditionally to make the world a brighter place.

buildingmycorestrength · 30/06/2013 07:49

Morning. Hope you got some sleep. Will courier some nuts ASAP.

HenWithAttitude · 30/06/2013 07:58

Chips. Well done Wine for later! Flowers for now

LNM. C'mon. Don't be cryptic. Let us know if its good or bad news :)

swallowedAfly · 30/06/2013 08:07

oh god you're not pregnant are you LNM?? hoping that's weird random thought rather than new psychic powers Grin hope you got some sleep.

chips well done you! wow. love that your mum is bragging to all and sundry.

can't remember who asked now but we're going to egypt so yes very hot and sunny is on the horizon. trying to pack and get the balance between not ending up going 'i've nothing to wear' and 'god why have bought all this crap a couple of dresses and a few bikinis would've been fine' sort of thing.

tons to do but sat here mn'ing instead.

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 30/06/2013 11:11

It was me SAF - where in Egypt are you going? We are thinking about Egypt again too. I do like Luxor, but I want some SEA to plonk myself in.

LNM - you ok? I hope your news is good... but Im a bit worried you are being rather cryptic.

And I had a bizarre dream last night - that I was heavily pregnant and had to have a section and I was walking my friends horse around the hills to try to bring on labour... and someone had bought an Island and we were viewing it! It was weird and when I woke up it felt too real.

And that was with NO pain meds at all.

swallowedAfly · 30/06/2013 12:00

jax have we had this conversation before? was it you wanting to know about el gouna? or am i going senile?

lazarusb · 30/06/2013 12:53

SAF - that was my first thought too Confused I misread your last sentence as 'minging instead'! I only had 1 beer last night too!

Hope all is ok LNM and the unexpected news is good. Have you been made redundant with an amazing package that means you'll never have to work again? With a huge house on the coast included for us for you & the girls?

ChipsNEggs Flowers & Wine and huge congratulations Smile I'm glad you & your Mum are proud. It wasn't until my late 30s I found something I was good at. School wasn't exactly a raging success for me. My younger brother, has always been naturally bright, got excellent grades & a great career. I sometimes wonder if I left my brain in the womb and he picked it up as an extra on his way out! (Apologies for the grim mental image that conjures up!).

swallowedAfly · 30/06/2013 13:10

oh i'm that too lazarusb Grin

LoserNoMore · 30/06/2013 14:23

Sorry didn't mean to go all cryptic. Nothing too serious. I'm home, on the sofa with the girls, eating ice cream and watching TV. The pain isn't half as bad now, nice cocktail of drugs are working a treat.

SAF, I'm jealous of your holiday, room for a wee one in your case?

Got to laugh at ex. Listen to this for a cracker. His latest idea "if you want I can come and stay for a few days to help out". My hysterical laughing was all the answer he needed. Twat!

OP posts:
swallowedAfly · 30/06/2013 14:43

so what have you been diagnosed with then LNM?

ChipsNEggs · 30/06/2013 18:18

Thank you, I think my Mum may explode with pride at graduation. I joked that I might not go and she looked fit to murder me!

Glad you're home with your girls LNM. The ex is delusional, having to look at his twattish face is hardly conductive to recovery and healing. You'd probably put your back out again by punching him.

Hope you've some pistachios too!

lazarusb · 30/06/2013 19:28

I'm glad you saw the funny side of what your ex said. I think next time you see him you give him a straw....

In the meantime, enjoy your drugs and ice cream! (There's a sentence I never expected to write!).

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 30/06/2013 23:00

im v drunk

LoserNoMore · 30/06/2013 23:13

Oh Jax, lucky you.

Can't help but see the funny side towards ex now, Lazarus. Idiot that he is.

Your poor mum, chips. Imagine joking like that Grin

morning, I wanted to post more last night but those 3 words summed up everything. Grin

neighbours, friends popped round 'for a drink' which turned into a sort of party and only 3 adults drinking my lovely litre of lime vodka, its empty now and I have a sore head and am burned - even with F30 on! Luckily I will go from lobster to brown but back is a bit hot this morning.

I am slathered in cream and going to try to get laundry done today.

LNM - what a twat to even suggest it! He obviously still thinks that its all about him and you are over reacting. Hmm

hope you are better. What did your x ray/scan reveal?

imtheonlyone · 01/07/2013 20:11

How is everyone this evening?
LNM how's the back pain? Any updates from JD?
SAF - how are you today?
Jax - hope the sunburn has calmed a little and the head is feeling better Wink

My DP was away at the weekend so I took the opportunity to have a girlie night with my bestie! Haven't done that in such a long time and realise how important good for the soul it is!!! Hope he goes away again soon Wink!!

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 01/07/2013 21:00

hi Imtheonly - sunburn is fine, smothered in aloe vera pre bed - sorts everything out. Head was fixed with some peanut m&ms and 2 ibuprofen and a diet coke. Grin

Im so tired though - I just cant hack no sleep and I had to work today, luckily from home, but I had to use my brain and I made sure to double check everything before I sent anything out 'live'. Ive also drank quite a lot of coffee.

Got a busy day tomorrow - but its fun stuff, getting my hair cut/coloured and then popping to garden centre with friend, then lunch. Meanwhile the oven clean man will be at my house, sparkling up my oven! That just cheers me up.

Hope everyone else is doing ok

lazarusb · 02/07/2013 10:13

Morning. I've got an interview tomorrow for an Internship so I'm trying to prepare for that. Haven't had an interview for 7 years! Didn't even have one for Uni entry. So, a bit nervous although it won't be too much of an issue if I don't get it.

Hope everyone is well and recovering/taking it easy/ getting to grips with life's challenges! Flowers because you're all worth it!

Loulybelle · 02/07/2013 11:59

Hope your feeling better LNM, glad you said no to your ex, imagine him swanning around saying your back together, pffftt.

PS. my no sex streak is set to continue along with my bad luck with men streak, since the man in question after 5 weeks and being very sweet, has said, he feels nothing for me.

lazarusb · 02/07/2013 16:53

Sorry to hear that Loulybelle. At least it was only 5 weeks and he didn't carry on leading you on. Leaves you free to find a man who really, really likes you (soon). Flowers

swallowedAfly · 02/07/2013 17:20

oh louly! bless you. onwards and upwards though! think my breaking the no sex run guy is a one off. got a really like you/need to take it slowly/all i've been through/etc text and decided rather than play into it all i'd say that's cool let's just carry on as friends. i don't think i can handle another man with ishoos. i'm sure when i was younger men were simple creatures who just dived in and i was the complex one. in my thirties all i meet are people with so much baggage that leaking all over the shop that you can't just relax and enjoy you know? i used to carry on regardless but looks like i'm developing some foresight and self preservation.

breast clinic rang to ask me to come in on thursday when i'll be halfway to egypt. i have an appointment for consultant and tests when i get back so plan is i can put it in a box and forget about it till then knowing it's not denial it's practical itms.

how is everyone doing? hope you've recovered from lack of sleep jax and are now lovely and brown.

LNM - sorry if i missed it but what was the diagnosis and treatment plan from the hospital? are you ok and what happens next?

Loulybelle · 02/07/2013 17:45

I will never understand how a man can be sweet to someone he feels nothing for, romance for a person you dont actually like, its like being punched in the stomach. Gotta find a way of letting him go gently.

HenWithAttitude · 02/07/2013 19:04

Bit gutting Loulybelle but onwards and upwards Flowers

I think I'm the one with isshoos SAF. My DP had a stone wall from me of 'cant get involved/too hurt/paranoia and caution'. I'd like to think I was open, honest and didn't commit more than I could with him. I've held him at arms length for a long time but you know what...I'm ready :)

HenWithAttitude · 02/07/2013 19:26

Did the hospital decide it wasn't your back after all LNM? Still pondering the unexpected turn of events and whether its good or bad news. Hope you are recovering
