Gabysmum: I also hope I haven't inadvertantly ignored anything that you've posted... I checked your previous post and I saw that I wasn't able to post until 16 posts after yours because Niall and Wade had been particularly challenging that day... not trying to make excuses... I'm sure you haven't felt excluded due to a singular post.. you must have felt excluded for a while i guess and now i feel really bad about it ((hugs)) I also only skimmed over the weekend posts because it was tricky to get online then for me as well. Yesterday was ok... so I guess I replied more "fully" to the people who also were posting yesterday. I know I ramble on about myself a lot and I recall saying the same thing to Racoon that I can't manage to systematically reply to every Junie each post like she does. I guess we all have our own style but I thought it's been great lately how a lot of Junies have returned after being away for a while (Tulip, Heaven etc) and there are others that I wonder about like Emishka ... but then I feel bad because they might have actually told us all that they wouldn't be online but I've forgotten and I feel bad that I have forgotten... Just like I felt bad that I forgot that Nickers was going away soon... *duh* she had only been posting about it a few posts ago!
Anyhow what I'm trying to say in my usual long-winded way is that I value ALL the Junies... I've always wanted everyone to feel included and informed that's why I suggested we swap mobile phone numbers and email. I know some of us somehow find the time to get on here more often and of course everyone will have a bit more to say to them but I LOVE it when I see a Junie come back online after a spell away because it puts my mind at ease that they and their new little one (or ones as in Kel's case) are ok! And where the hell is Bellasmum???
Honestly I think we are all managing by crisis these days and i'm so sorry that you feel like you've slipped through the net. This is a place where we all can vent our frustrations and if sometimes they are because of internal reasons (ie about each other) then I guess that's ok because as a group I think we've all got a lot to offer each other and are incredibly forgiving and tolerant of differences. I know I wear my heart on my sleeve and reveal stuff about myself that I wouldn't tell people face to face so of course I'm sure there are aspects about myself that you would all prefer to ignore!!! Anyhow we want to be here for you darl and hope that you'll feel able to return...good mood or bad mood... we'll support you unconditionally
Gabysmum I can totally understand where your coming from, some days I feel that nobody has taken any notice of what I've had to say, but I also agree with Bath sometimes I've been at fault and not replied to everyone except the most recent ones and that you I apoligise if I have offended or upset you by not replying. I hope that you do decide to come back in here as you are a June mummy and would be sorely missed .
Jaspen I had to laugh at your post, because I did the exact same thing not so long ago. I was getting new swimmers for summer and I tried them on and looked in the mirror and nearly cried when I saw how big I am. You just have to remember that you have just had a baby 3 mths ago and also have a toddler to look after and they don't care how mummy looks and I'm sure your DH doesn't either. So don't beat yourself up about it, it will come off sooner or later.
Can someone please email me the phone numbers of all the Junies again when we got a new computer I forgot to get the phone No's from it, thanks.
