Friday Night too tired for ........ Thread

[IndigoBell]

Evening all.......

I don't actually drink (well I do about 3 times a year) but I have chocolate.
But you can't have any unless you sign "chocolate please" that's the rules in our house.

Oohhhhhhh, climbing... Don't talk to me about climbing. Someone ( ) showed DD how to move the footstool to the sofa to help her get on it, so today I walked into the living room to find her kneeling on the windowsill (behind the sofa)!!

Madly signs 'Chocolate please, please, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!'

Indigo - good luck searching for a nanny. I know how totally draining it was searching for a childminder and at least you dont have to have them in your house. Everyone seemed rubbish, until we found the good ones that is.

Ellen - the most exciting thing that happened to me was the netmums stuff. My life is sad - - it was hilarious though! They were so clueless for such a long time. Im pleased we got a result in the end though.

DH and I nearly went to see Mr Poppers Penguins on our date night out this week (first night out together for 4 months!!) - Im soooooo glad I had my Iphone with me to read reviews online before coming to a much more sensible decision!!

Ellen the money box made me wet myself, it was almost beyond imagination.

Wilson - sorry your spa day looks like being cancelled. I so look forward to things as they are so few and far between. it means so much more than it does to others.

We have still not sorted the DLA problem with my Social worker calling them without my permission to tell them there is nothing wrong with DS. Utter filth (does that phrase pass the mumsnet not offending people test?)

Sorry for the long rambling post

I would be safe in your house then - chocolate is strictly off the menu for me at the moment and there's no way I could sign 'chocolate please'.

I do however have some Mango and Blackcurrant sorbet, which is actually a necessity after the garlic, ginger and chilli stirfry I've just consumed.

My cbeebies days are over! Yippee! My baby is 9 and has two big brothers to impress. And no more stairgates.

Can I have some chocolate? I'm waiting for the curry to arrive and I'm starving...

actually its budweiser but never mind :)
vera naughty2 uses the grab any toy that is solid and stable to stand on - smart thinking!

We still have stairgates - but they're mainly to keep the dogs in. Not that it helps, as our lurcher can clear them in one spectacular deer-like leap - the git!

I have this week also remembered what a pita it is having a stair gate and locked door between the living room and downstairs loo when toilet training a two year old.

I can sign. C hand taps chin twice, palm on chin, hand down while frowning. (Smiling would be 'thank you')

well done ellen :)
it suprises me that some people have no staircases and their good little babies dont even think about scaling the stairs, going in kitchen cupboards or launching themselves out of windows :)

Am currently teaching the puppy to sit in sign.

That's just what I was doing, Ellen, were you watching me?

Although I wasn't frowning. I thought please was a long movement and thank you was a short one (to remember, 'Please to the knees')

Ellen, we have slightly different chocolate signs.

Please to your knees ta to your bra. :o

What sort of puppy have you got Vera?

Chundle naughty2 sounds like dd2. Although dd2 will also use unstable toys.

A chocolate lab. Just to keep with the chocolate thread. But he's a bourneville.

I learnt BSL, not Makaton, BSL is a bit less rigid and has regional variations. Me, fist on chest (I not used much in BSL) want, palm slide down chest, chocolate, c hand taps chin twice, please, palm on chin, hand goes down, eyebrows frowning!

Aw, chocolate lab pups are ridiculously cute - all rolls of puppy fat and big brown eyes.

We do Makaton, and I thought chocolate was a c-sign tapped twice on your chin too...

Regional variation I think. Our chocolate is c hand signed off tip of nose. But our. Dictionary shows both (total nerd here went and looked)

We need sign and smile, or ninja goose, they both have proper signing qualifications! The rude sign thread of a couple of weeks ago was funny, I can sign Twunty bollocks these days!

We're BSL too, but started with makaton and signalong but quickly changed.

Anyway ladies... Must dash. Nighty night.

Galena, did we scare you off with our rude word signing?

I can sign fuck you. But I think that's what started the signing twunty bollocks thread came from.

Although dd2 can sign doggy-wobbly bits-funny.
