    sorry to hear you're having a super hard time of it all Christy

    Melbel - i hope you get to try out the baby carriers ASAP with your own little munchikin in them.

    Beautrix - c'mon spill, HOW MANY have you found?

    Alioops - our loss, Townsville's gain. Of course the kids know big changes are afoot, they are tricky and pick up EVERY THING.

    i stress out when the phone goes, i am not ready for MSN - one day i will feel calm enough to manage having MSN again.

    Townsville heh, you will have the BEST excuse to buy swim nappies!! See i MADE it nappy related LOL.

    Thank you girls, you all rock!

    I've been having a really hard time at work since I gave notice. The "new" guy they hired used to be my nemesis a few years ago... quite nasty stuff happened & while I was willing to give him a fresh start. I shouldn't have. I shouldn't have thought that he would change... Now instead of leaving & celebrating 8 years at one work place, it will be a hurry up and let me go. It was a demoralising day yesterday at work and then I came online and shouldn't have because I feel guilty about leaving the girls in care and was hurt by a thread I started Not exactly what I meant to happen....

    I'm much better today thanks, I have had heaps of support from DH (although I don't know if offering to punch the guy helps that much) and although we need to money for the move, I know that its only 4 more weeks... chant with me... 4 more weeks.... 4 more weeks.... 4 more weeks....

    Oh Christy! that is dreadful - big hugs honey! It is a terrible feeling when you do the right thing and give approriate notice and then you feel like al they are doing is counting down the days! Think 4 weeks and a new exciting adventure begins!

    SOrry i have been MIA lately - things have been a bit full on!

    My soapnuts are wonderful! - everything is fresh and clean and i feel better inside knowing i am using them with my clothes and nappies as well!!

    DD is sick so had her to attend to !

    Melham - How is your new job???

    *hugs* Christy, that really sux. Both of them.

    Mel - there's a list of sites, you find "hidden" icons on each of them and once you've found 30, you're eligible for a prize. There's a forum with a list of all discounts, and when you register to hunt, you get a discount code to use. Most of the sites have specials, and huge stockings It's during the month of September

    Us - well a shocker of a night here. Pip cried non-stop between 11pm and 4am. I'm going to stay here until around 10am, then drive to work with him, where DH will bring him home. Of course, tonight's the night one of my dearest friends is leaving the country to work in the USA (possibly forever) and we have a dinner tonight with him & his wife before we go to the airport. We sat in the shower for a while (twice), gave milk, panadol, teething gel, massage, clean nappies (twice) and coming into our bed. No idea what's wrong. Seeing the doc @ 2:15. Oh, there was coughing, screaming, sneezing, punching me and biting DH.

    Katones - you can wash different brands together. Get all the polar fleece covers and put them into a laundry bag. Gigi has recommended previously using a pillow protector (the meshy ones) and they are really good. This will keep the fluff spreading. Also put any minkee covers into another protector. Put all your inserts / fitteds into the wash, separated from the clips and if its the first wash, just use cold water. Then the second wash, use about a half lid of am-o-lin in the wash (I'm assuming you have a top loader). If you have a good machine you can set the temp, I'm lost, but I just use a warm wash/cold rinse.
    Hang them on the line lengthways - this means the leg elastic is supported and keeps better. Good luck!

    WoHB - a sposie, cause at 3am I wasn't going to get up and change him, DH put a sposie on.
