I finally made it into the chat room... weirdo! hehe Haven't done that kinda thing since 1999!
Julie: will work on your av again after dinner.
Amanda: I hope Kat loads yours up soon! (I made an av for amanda months ago... so excited to finally see it in here... it's a goodun! keep an eye out for it!)
Better think about dinner before Niall wakes up from his nap...
cool Bath - can't wait to see the finished one - the draft one was fab
Julie
grr - i can hear stirring - better go fetch bubba
Cool Bath does it have Tat's, lol
How cool is the new chatroom, so good to see you guys in there.
I can't sign into the chat room, I need some help.
Yeah Bath I can't wait for my Av either, I've been checking periodiclly (sp) I'm soo excited.
hugs xoxo
Amanda you need to create an account first then they send you a confirmation number and then you can enter.
Tat's? Actually yes, if you look closely at Amanda's av you will see a small tat on her chest ;) I'm refreshing alot to see if it's been loaded too Amanda! LOL
ETA: i struggled to get in there too Amanda... at what stage are you at? What have you done so far?
It's alright I've done it now, but now we're going food shopping. BBL.
hugs xoxo
Tali - i take my hat off to SAHM's. I work at a university doing administration and absolutely love it! I work out of both necessity and enjoyment, I think I would go stir crazy being home all day lol!! When I am home, I cherish the time with them and can't wait to get home and see them. Maybe if we try for #3, working may not be an option as childcare is expensive.
7th - just noticed your name change too! Can I still call you 7th otherwise I will get you mixed up with other Dee lol!
Nic - I took Chelsea to her first concert at about 18mths. It was a local one for Play School which I think are much better than the big ones like Wiggles etc. Tickets are about $10 and they usually run them at community centres etc and kids can just crawl around, there are no seats, you just sit on the floor. The usually have them for Play School, Hooley Dooleys, Fairies etc. Maybe check out your Sydneys Child etc for some. I am sure he'll appreciate the big concerts once hes older. Just checked out his pics, boy is he getting so big. Looks like a real toddler now and his haircut looks gorgeous. I still think he and Marley make a cute couple lol!!!
Bath - I did get your PM but as my pop ups were blocked it didn't appear, then I unblocked them and it didn't come up! Might have to try it again. So cool about the memberships, I will definately be getting one and you will definately do my avatar. I wouldn't want anyone else to do it!
How exciting about the chat rooms. Haven't been to try it yet but it will be addictive! I spend many nights on messenger chatting to my GF's in Japan and the US. It will be so nice to chat to you girls live!!!
Had a lovely day today. Went over to have lunch with another BB friend who is due in 4 days. I was kinda hoping she went into labour today!!! Chelsea and her son played for ages and they get along very well. Marley still a bit snotty so she stayed home with DH. I am super organised tonight, I have all my work clothes sorted (and its going to be a freezing 12 tomorrow with wind and rain - great!), Chelsea's kinder clothes ready for DH, umbrella ready at the door, petrol in the car. Definately leaving earlier tomorrow and see if I can get to work on time.
Hi to Amanda, Emishka, Julie, Rory, IK and anyone else I missed!
Off to check out chat rooms!
Nic - Hi, I'm sure Rae would still be interested in a catch up, i still have to go visit her to meet little Tia! Chloe hasn't been well so didn't want to risk her passing anything on to her or Ella.So when i finally get over there I'll ask her and get her to let you know. Nah, don't know Fletch, haven't been on here long enough or often enough to get to know ppl yet. Hope your Dad's brithday lunch went well, I'm sure he would have been really suprised!
State of Origin back on so I'm off to watch it - love my footy. Take care all xx
Oh yes Mandy - go the Maroons!
Its the one bugger about being in Perth is the time difference to everywhere else as we don't get state of origin until 10.30pm (don't know why when it starts at 6pm our time) and also the BB chat room will be closed at night by the time i get on here after putting the kids down.
Mel - glad you had a nice lunch with your friend
Cool-dee - great new name! (hope other dee doesn't get offended if i call you cool dee and her dee!)
Julie x
Amanda that is an excellent Avatar, well done Bath, great job.
Name change, :dance:
well it's well overdue, I'm coolabahdee everywhere except in here and the 7th heaven name was really starting to grate on me:doh:, lol, I know other's don't use their names and thats cool but my name is Dee, that's what everyone calls me, my actual name is Deidree, I was Dee Dee as a baby and small child and as I grew older I dropped a Dee, no one who knows me calls me Deidree. lol. I made up my chat name years and years ago, I think it suits me better, There were two other girls named Dee, on an Aussie DeeAussie and the other was Dee, so I wanted an aussie sounding name, so out of Coolabah Tree Coolabahdee was hatched. Some call me cool others call me Dee, I like both.
Please don't be offended or take it the wrong way but I prefer Dee, but don't mind Cool or cool dee:D. I'm already called Dee alot in here anyway and I end nearly every post with Dee so it won't be a hard transistion, lol.;)
Well what am I doing up at this ungodly hour, hmmm I've been asking Nathan and Melissa that very Question. I'm in bed and I have Nathan on the boob and am typing single hand style. He's now asleep as is Lissa so I'm off back to sleep, see you tomorrow Amanda.
Talk soon lovely ladies
Ta
Dee
P.S Good on you girls for upgrading, can't wait for your avatar Julie....
ETA OMG What a terrible night....................
Oh, Dee - I take it your ETA "horrible night" was added at 2.44am - hope it wasn't anything too long lasting!! LOL I remember seeing your new name on the other Junies forum and didn't get it, but now I do! Makes me think of waltzing matilda - I used to sing that to Flynn when I ran out of nursery rhymes!
Commisertations Julie on the rugby - I heard the maroons lost :(. But in that case congrats to our NSW Junies ;)
Howdy new members, and Emishka, nice to see you in here!
Amanda, love the new AV!!
ETA: On the SAHM thing, I am like you Mel, I love working and being with Flynn - it is so nice to have the "best of both worlds" and I think I would hate my life if I was forced to chose one or the other. I just have to be careful vocalising that at home - DH is a SAHD at the moment so I don't want to say anything negative about the Many Joys of Childrearing LOL!!
better go - at work today
Lol Rory, I loved the balance of working part time and being at home. Now was it your DH that was in the late stages of joining the Fire Brigade, how's all that going,if it is you I'm thinking of, lol
The fuzzy brain this morning is because I had a horrible night. Rory, I posted at 2.44 am and the Eta was added when I had to get up at 6.55am, not overly early, but when you've been up half the night, it's almost impossible. Makayla ended up coming in a 4am and waking me to tell me she doesn't feel well. I had to take a very deep breathe before speaking,I was so ready to cry. My sister from Perth kept me on the phone till after midnight and then told me ohh it's getting late I want to be in bed by midnight. I was like, what about me, I was in bed when you called at 10.30 pm.
TOY SALE
I'm not doing the toy sale thing this year, I sent Michael in last year and they ended up having an equally good sale on in September. The kids are getting a swing set from toy world and a PS3 which Michael will bring back with him from over there this year with some stocking fillers. We are having a huge family Christmas/family reunuion/50th wedding anniversary, with Michaels family and I ordered Chrisco to try and absorb some of the burden. Out of the 7 families only three are paying for it, including us as the rest will struggle to even get here. It will be heaps of fun but.
STATE OF ORIGIN
I do love my footy but I didn't bother to watch it last night. I figured we won the series anyway so why miss my other shows when this game didn't really mean anything.;)
Yay for QLD winning the State of Origin:confetti:
Dee, I wish DH was in the late stages of his application - he is actually in the real early stages, in that he passed the written test. He still has the group interview, psych testing and aptitude/fitness tests to go. The aptitude test should be ok - he is very mechanical minded and fit but the interviews and psych stuff will be the harder part. Not that he is a psycho LOL - just that is the bit you can't train for.
Hope you get some sleep today :)
Ohhhhh, okwell good luck to him.
No sleep today, lol anyway I heard it was really over rated.;) I'm off to the park with Amanda and her tribe today. Speaking of which, it's time for me to get a move on.
The psych test is the hardest part for all emergency service career staff! I think it might actually be the hardest for ambos. Good luck to your DH, Rory!
I'm STILL umming and ahhhing about a new name - since I first chose my username whilst under the pump to think of something! One of these days I'll reappear with a new name. I like Coolahbadee - I liked the play on Coolahbatree when I first saw it, so I was on the right track!
DP woke Oscar up early again (he reckons 8.30-9 isn't early...it is for us!). Oscar has lost a lot of his voice, but is happy enough.
Better go again, got a boy in my lap...
Well didn't get out of the house as poor Amanda couldn't make it, her car is broken:(. Hope it's fixed soon Amanda. Probably a good thing anyway the wind outside is gale force. The sky is so blue, the sun is so warm and the wind would just about whip right through you.
I'm just about to put these girlies down and bring the boy in with me as I think I might just get to have an Arvo nap, I'm soooo tired.
Isn't the revamping of the site great, the live chat is so cool, I haven't had a live chat with anyone in sooooo long. Nice change and look at all the new Platinum members. Can't wait to see your avatars girls. Amanda your'se is awesome.
