<25 BFPs!! 12 births!! Welcome to the world turtle babies!>

Molly :hugs: for your brother for making contact for you I hopes

B hope you find bobble or I might :cry:
 
Ginge it's so nice to see you in such higher spirits these days!! :hugs:
 
Morning turtles!

It's Belly Blessing day :happydance:

The boys have gone out with MIL who is in her normal charming mode and we are getting the house and garden ready. I asked my friend to make the cassata I make for me and I am SOOOOO looking forward to eating it :munch: I'm making creamy potato bake :munch: I'm starving!!!!

My maid's husband beat her up yesterday :nope: They had a fight about her money and then he beat her. So she thinks he must have a Zulu girlfriend who has put muti (a spell from the witch doctor) on him because he's never done it before :dohh: The fact that he's clearly just being an asshole seems far to illogical :growlmad: I feel so sorry for her. She's so sweet. I'm wondering if that's why she's so desperate to have a baby
 
Argh! Just vommed again :sick: REALLY wasn't expecting this from 3rd tri! I'm going to have to take all my tablets at night now otherwise they come straight up....iron tablet and aspirin vom - so not pleasant!

Molly :hugs: I'm so sorry. I hope he has you worried over nothing and that he makes contact soon. SO awful. And please keep us in the loop. We care

B, beautiful Henry bump :cloud9:

Jaynie, I'm so glad a friend is moving in. It will be lovely to have the company and someone to have fun with and to share expenses....as for Adam and his friend ...:dohh: BOYS!
 
Morning! :hi:

Just waiting for the pool to open :happydance:

Happy belly blessing Trin! I confess I don't really know what that is, I bless my belly daily, but if it involves cakes and friends then that's good :thumbup:

I found Bobble! Hiding behind the curtain!

BUT it's a sad morning because Holly's chicken is dead :cry: One we hatched from eggs from a rare breeds centre in Devon :cry: It was her first winter- rather too harsh a one for a fragile breed we're guessing :cry:
 
Sorry about holly's chicken. Will you eat it now?

It's freeeeeezimg here. -7 apparently. Not nice. I've got my clothes for wrk infront of the heater bc they're too cold to put on!!
 
Aw sorry about Hollys chicken.

Trin have fun at your belly blessing.

-7 here too. DH got up at 6 to go for a run. He's so motivated at the moment, he even wants to go swimming and he hates swimming. We had time for breakfast together before he goes to work. I need to get on with some serious housework today (depending on what Lyra does).
 
Oh dear. DH just rang me, he left for work a few minutes ago but he said the car started to beep and a message came up saying engine systems failure, steering failure :wacko:
 
Good morning :hi:

Brrrrrrr, cold here too :cold:

I have a snuffly snotty little girl this morning who didn't sleep well at all mostly because she continually rolls onto her front and doesn't like it :dohh: Between me and OH we got up 7 times to move her back onto her back. Can't wait for this phase to end!

Not sure what today holds..must get to PO and post my sister's birthday gift, apart from that, who knows :shrug:

Hope you all have lovely Saturdays :hugs:
 
Morning all, sorry for all the heartache on here :(
trin I hope your belly blessing goes well :-)
So....made a pretty big decision last night, in march I enrol with the open uni, and start a 3yr course in social work. Once this is achieved I have already been offered a job, degree necessary of course this is following a previous course I did when Harris was 2, I was short listed to the final 6 out of 675 applicants and was going to have degree and training paid for BUT, it would have meant 40hrs+ from mon-fri and I already worked 16hrs at weekend so would never see Harris. So I took myself out of the running.
Anyways, my friend who got me into that scheme helped me go through funding etc and fired me up again...when esme goes to school I will have a career :-)
 
Morning girls. I had a friend stay over cause he has nowhere to go (girl trouble) so we're having a brew and then like Essie I really ought to do so much housework :nope: I especially need to start cleaning and sorting for my new lodger :happydance:

Trin happy belly blessing day, food sounds delicious! Me wel jel!

B what a sad day, will Holly have an awareness of the dead chicken?

Kit :haha: she sounds a righ madam does your Cara!

Essie that does not sound good :nope: did he make it to work?

Sezi hope today flies for you! Poopants on Saturday working!

I don't know what Adam is thinking I ended up speaking to him last night, cause I needed to know instantly that he would not stand in the way of my friend moving in, so we were texting and he asked me to phone him because he said I sounded angry... I did and he was off out again! :growlmad: so I was distraught on the phone, I get paid Fridays and have to save/spend more than that on the house and he's off out all the time, telling me his rents are throwing money at him! He ended up saying stuff like 'but you weren't happy with me were ya'.. I suspect it's yet another tactic but I am wondering if maybe he got laid or something :shrug:

I stopped mid post, and forgot all else what I had to say! :dohh:

ooooooh excellent!! This is so exciting. This is what my mumsie did and she's never really stopped getting qualifications now. She did an OU psycology degree when I was a baby in the evenings, then a specific social work qual, then lots of management things and she's now 60 and still going! There are so many options with a social work degree, not just your standard Social Worker, and I think you'll be excellent at it! :thumbup:

At least it's good money. I am here through choice, you get asked if you want to do OT or not. I'm just a money grabbing whore who needs to buy her daughter more clothes!!

As for the Adam thing - it's always sooooo hard to accept these sorts of things Jaynie. Even though the relationship has ended it's so painful to think of the other party moving on etc. You really are probably just being paranoid anyway, but it is ok to feel these things. I always try and reason with myself. "OK, yes it hurts and is sad to think of him with someone else but I also going to be with someone else one day/soon and that will be my right. I am free to do these things and so is he, but I will just 'own' the sad feeling for a while" If that makes sense? I always try and "own" my feelings ie process and understand why I'm feeling them, and then I always feel more peaceful about them.

Molly mega hugs to you, I hope your Bro is absolutely fine, just having a bit of a quite time where he doesn't want much contact.
 
I have a similar philosophy Sez - I hate people that don't take responsibility for their own feelings and expect that other people will. This was a massive problem with Adam too. I think it's another tactic but i did say to him that us speaking was bad at first! I don't need to know what he is doing or second guess his feelings do I? I have enough work dealing with my own... Anyway, I'm spring cleaning and I already feel better and then I need to get some food in my house and start living bit by but again. His mum phoned me last night which was nice. I have a mum like April's and I couldn't get through last night when inwas distraught and she rang me back and said she'd call me back and I am still waiting. It is nice that I speak to Adams mum, she did a lot for me and women are different about this stuff I think - she understands as we've been talking about this for a long time.
