Morning Girls,

2mums – that is awesome news about the job. Enjoy what days you have left before you start work.

Angel – sorry to hear your unwell again. You really haven’t had a good couple of months. Hopefully with the spring weather warming up you’ll be back to your old self again.

Pammy – have a fantastic holiday.

Roise – I don’t know much about charting as I think I must be the only one on her not charting. But I love your signature line.

Nnewbie – I agree with the girls too. Don’t think of it as being selfish – it was your to start with!! Go get it.

Hello to everyone else, sorry I didnt give everyone a shout out.

Thank god its Thursday!! End of another working week for me. Which also means next week I will be getting ready to .

Oh, dear. Things are grim when you're wanting a beer at 9:30.

Come on, love, there are rules around these things.
No beer before 11am.

 

[number2woohoo]

Also: champage is fine from breakfast time on.
No red wine till after 5pm. Unless it is Rose, which is fine from morning tea onwards.
white wine is ok from lunchtime.
Cocktails are fine after 11.
Pimms is fine after 10:30.
Mixed drinks - gin and tonic from 11, heavier ones like bourbon and scotch, not till mid afternoon.
I have not given this too much thought, not at all.

Lol at the drinking times, I need to print this out for mornings like this morning.

I encountered the rudest most judgemental woman at daycare this morning and then I fell in love with my daycare provider for defending me ever so calmly

Hi! Nope haven't tested - don't have any tests and I don't like testing before AF is actually late. Away on the weekend so probably wouldn't test till I'm home (Monday morning!) I need to order some IC's today!! I'm super snotty and my head feels like its going to explode so I'm discounting this mornings temp as a sign, I'll leave it in my chart but I think I'm just feverish!

Smithy...people can be so mean! Glad the daycare worker stood up for you!

Angel, sorry you're feeling crap - hope you're better by the weekend...I'm hoping I am!!

Yeah, i think we get on just fine number2!!!!!! Love it

Well chats numbered 1 and 2 are complete.

My boss asked me to formalise my request for my job back, and i have notified the other girl that this is what i am doing. She, at this stage, is all like, well of course you should, its your job (because she is yet to put two and two together that she wouldnt be left with one!!)

Following my meeting with her, she has gone in closed door with our boss. This is the part where it gets interesting!!!

Ah well - just need to remind myself that worst case - i take my redundancy, and find a job somewhere better (even if not ideal for maternity leave, people always make do right!)

What happened at daycare?

Well, I had a shit nights sleep. Got up at 5:30 and realised at about 7am that I had 2 classes worth of maths to mark before I took the kids to school. I raced through that and had no time for a shower etc. dropped the kids and all the marked work at school then took the little one to daycare. I'm wearing a strapless dress, yesterday's mascara, bed hair and my glasses ( but who cares, right) give my daycare lady a quick rundown on my morning.. As I was leaving this perfectly preened mother says " oh, she's one of those mums, probably going home to sleep off her hangover!" I ignored it. My daycare lady says "actually, she won't sleep, she will go home and study because she is doing a double degree, she will also find time to clean her house and cook for her family. She is one of the smartest, most loving people on the planet and stayed up most of the night marking other children's homework" the bitch then says " but she has so many tattoos" *sigh*

I'm used to being judged for my tattoos and I see no point in looking glamorous to drop my babies at school.

People are strange!

Stand firm! The job is yours, and she is lazy, remember that.

As far as vodka at work - get yourself a lemon lime and bitters, with added vodka - impossible to smell. Ah you can tell I had a wild youth (MANY years ago).

Newbie have one for courage! Sounds like you are fighting for what is yours, good girl!!! Sometimes you have to look after number 1 and your family! Like you say redundancy is a back up but stay strong! Like you say, people make do and that is exactly what we are doing at the moment especially if I get pregers. Good luck!

Angel- so sorry you are ill yet again, I think the girls are right about the spring weather! Sunshine can make you feel like a different person! Ps. I'm so with you on the g-string angle! I love them!

Lisa- It's horrible to be judged! People think that because I put a lot into the way I look that I am stupid. Modelling is easy money but I got straight A's in school and have A levels in things like history and psychology! Sometimes I want to hold up a sign saying I'm not think!! So glad someone stood up for you, keep your head up!!!

Pammy and Rosie- hope you have great holidays!!! Relax and enjoy!!

2 mums - what a catch up!! I hope you can relax after your next scan!

Hi to everyone else!!! I can feel some bfp's just round the corner!!

 

[Newbie32]

yeah, with an addded side of guilttrip about being sent back to England.....

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

People are just, ugh! My sister is blonde and a model. People always assume she is hopelessly stupid. She is incredibly intelligent! I make a point not to judge people on face value

 

[Rosie_PA]

No guilt Nana!!! You deserve it....let lazy find a new job!! And cheers to a liquid lunch!!

 

[number2woohoo]

Don't get drawn in Newbie, just shake your head when she brings it up and say "What a shame for you".
