New Fab & Glam (Part 2 - happy endings?!)

[Baffy]

Lets hope this is the thread where we all find our happy endings

oh, is that what was on FB? haven't managed to get on there yet to see what's been going on

so sorry

check out the link in this thread www.mumsnet.com/Talk/7/466497?ts=1201614701106&msgid=9435648

my boss is doing this to me bigtime. i am going to leave before the end of this year.

that's my goal for 2008.

very interesting

with a boss like that and H, it's a wonder you're still smiling! hats off to you - you have some strength!

totally agree, make it your aim for 2008 to get out of there.

Indeed Baffy!

Got 3 huge high profile projects that I want to deliver plus want to get some more training (not that boss will approve it probably) and attempt an industry accreditation.

Should achieve all that by about mid 3rd quarter and look to switch jobs after dd gets her free nursery place.

one good thing is my flexibility here which i doubt i would get elsewhere right off the bat.

in theory i could double my salary but we'll see!

sounds like a good plan to me!

and double the salary - we could be planning a weekend meet up in Vegas this time next year!

Dior it was great to see you too - yes hope you havent passed anything on to me!!!

I was a bit worried about the huge accident i just missed as we left - it was going your way and i thought you might have got caught up in it.

Anyway hope you are feeling a bit better soon.

Hi everyone else will try and catch up on fb sometime soon.

3 March is mothers day if that makes a difference to anyone??

Oh yes just looked - Sunday 2nd March is Mother's day

I won't be able to come down then.

Sugar and I can't do 9th March.

Could possibly do 16th March (the week before Easter)?

(It's getting closer and closer to my 30th! Tanee we might have to make it a joint celebration! )

Yes tempting to run away for mothers day but I thibk DD1 would be disappointed so probably puts me out too...have looked again could probably mnage 24 Feb if better for everyone or failing that 16 March ok...are we gonna try and do something over Easter?? Gosh this year is running away..
Hope everyone is ok?? Lily hows the LO...sleepless nights and marathon feeding here [slightly demented grin though]

mother's day, oh great! doubt this year will be any better than last year. altho perhaps i should get bro on side and do something nice for ma.

i can deffo do 24th....

I can do 24th Feb or 16th March too. Either one is fine.

Hi i can do 16th march.

I am 35 tomorrow and got 3dc's ill and dh working away! So i will be a grumpy old woman tomorrow!

Although im sure i shall cheer up after the chocolate birthday cake i brought that i will share with dc's and the lovely bottle of wine i shall keep to myself!

Id still love to meet most weekends are ok but with our hectic life anything can change so i will just do my best once a date is arranged.

I can do 16 March, - and yes, great idea to have a joint birthday bash, Baffy. I'm planning lots of get togethers with different groups of friends, so this is going to be the longest celebration ever. I prefer it to having one big party, as you never get to talk to everyone at a big do, and I just get stressed by the preparations.

Our main computer hard drive has crashed - again!!!!!. Last night DD asked me if I thought this had been the longest January ever (she's all stressed with coursework and 6th form applications) - yes, it has been the longest and worst January of my life.

Just had another phonecall from an old friend to say her mother's died. . Am thinking I must start really cherishing mine - she's 82 and my dad is 80 next week. They're relatively fit but things happen so quickly at their age...

Hi all with you there McDam sooo tired ! Endless nights of no sleep and feeding and days of school / pre school and nursery runs in between feeds but it's all good
Am very of you all getting together i feel like ever having social life again will be impossible !

I'll look after your lo lily! You'll have to come along if you can?...

Is it looking like 16th March?

PC can you make that? And what about SG?

We should also see if CnC / TFM can make it... (if you're lurking let us know )

do we need to do a list of everyone and who can make it when...

I have my organised head on today...

Sorry I'm rubbish:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUGAR!!!

Hope you're having a lovely day xxxxx

Sugar - a Very Happy Birthday - hope it's a good one and the beginning of great things !

Thankyou all.

Im having an absolute giggle at threads on here today.

Had lovely cards and texts/phonecalls and i get all my presents at the weekend

How is everyone today?

Fine thanks Sugar, what's been your fav thread today? I've been looking at Teenagers since dd will be 16 soon - and I think compared with some of the threads, she's a little angel !

I'm off home now to paint large dark green samples to try on our bedroom wall (which is currently a horrid shade of lavender). I MAY decide that dark lincoln green is a bit TOO intense, but we shall see ... I quite fancy a dark, tomblike interior with our mahogany fourposter draped in cream against deep green walls... (the fourposter was a teenage fantasy that dp agreed we could indulge, thanks to an eBay bargain)

Lodger is threatening to stay till next Wednesday as she has auditions, and she doesn't seem to have done anything about finding somewhere else to live - but DP has told her we need to sleep in her room whilst painting ours, so she'll have to go home next week - I think even he has had enough - as he says there is now nowhere in our house where we can safely be alone except the bedroom & the loo!
