Shell - Sorry to hear about your IL's... I hate it when people offer help with massive emotional 'conditions'. As to cars, what are you looking for sizewise? sedan/wagon? 4,6,8 cyl? I've been involved with the auto industry for 10 years, and DH has been an auto tech for 15 so can help with suggestions if you like! If you see something you like, let me know what it is and I'll try and find out common faults etc.
Anna- Want a 4 door car but not too big cause I can't park well. Lol. Want something reliable, one that has parts that are easy to get. As for cylinders, I have no idea!
Anna T - Hope that morning sickness settles really soon. I can't imagine how hard it must be for you. I know when you are sick, it is hard enough just looking after yourself!! Did you have M/S in your last pregnancy.
Rach - Great to hear that Jack did better last night. Give it a week or two and I bet you will be able to get him to sleep by 9pm.
We are off to Gymbaroo this afternoon, and then later this evening my mum will be flying home from London. She has been gone 2 months, so I can't wait to see her again.
Nothing too big? Hmmm... so Commodores and the like are 'too big'? If so, might be a tricky one as smaller cars (generally 4 cyl and cheaper to run) are holding their value better due to demand. Even tho heaps of people do bag them; for no genuine reason; Hyundai's are great value for money and cheap as to maintain and run, have good resale and sell easily. X3 (model) Excels do come in 4 door and generally with a/c and power steering. If you can stretch the budget another couple of K, buy an Accent as they are better. Problems with these cars are generally the HT Leads or the TP Switch, both are cheap to replace in comparison to problems with many other cars.
Meg - Enjoy Gymbaroo, how is James' roseola going?
Yeah I did but not this bad. This is every second a feeling of wanting to be sick, its awful :( Kudos to anyone who had this full on m/s, I thought my 3 pukes a day with my last pregnancy was horrible!:
AH! Jett is singing :cryinglaugh: He doesnt say actual words just blah blah blah's along with songs and inserts "Mum' 'Daddy' or 'Bubba' randomly throughout. Its so cute when he also bops along with it too!
im lurking girls I have had a few bad days with my depression at the moment, im so disappointed in myself as I was getting better...so im still here if anyone is wondering just reading how you all are not up to posting about other stuff yet. Julia's good but ultra clingy and wont let me put her down... im just really tired atm.
Maz - ru ok hon? hope your ms eases and Vy is well.
AnnaT - hope your ms eases too, sounds hard to deal with it with a bub...im rotten when im sick with migrane dealing with Julia so I can imagine how you feel.
back later girls.
Bel
belle :hugs: hope things improve soon
hi ya girls
Just wanted to let you know im alive.
Ive been trying my hardest to stop from spweing as well AnnaT. I found some maxalin that I had last time with VY so Ive been having them shhhhhhh. And vitamin B6 which is good for m/s too. Still, I cant stomach the smell of vegies and fruit again! DAme it! Making tea is so much fun NOT!
Vy has been standing and letting go for a bout 2 days now. She's been letting go and stands for about 30 seconds until she realises and just plonks ont he ground. Her favourite food is still the cats and god, the smell of that on her breath makes me barth!
Anyway enough of my crapola.
Anna what a fabo cake. I love it your so friggen clever.
AnnaT - good luck with your scan tomorrow, cant wait to see if its one or two, or maybe 3 or 4 heheheh
HI ya everyone else....have to fly got a kinder meeting with WIlhelms teachers. WEnt to the bank today to consolidate alot of our stuff. Yay so over bills at the moment!
ok I'll try and BBL
Maz - just any vitamin b6 from like a health food shop or chemist? I finally gave in and spewed, almost all over myself and the bathroom. Feel much better though lol Bite your tongue, as much as multiples would be nice 3 or 4 might just send me mad!
PMSL Annat lalalalalalalalla. Just form the chemist but im sure you can get them from the supermarket. OH at spewing all over yourself...oh the smell blahh!!ROFL - yourve made my day cause now i know im not the only one ;)
All this m/s talk is bringing back memories, all those vomits, all the migraines I used to get... the list goes on.
*Belle*- hugs belle, just remember for each step back you can take 2 or more forward. That clingyness can be so tiring!
Anna**- Yeah Commodores might be too big for me, serously I tell you I am the worst parker in the world, gave up reverse parking long ago but even drive into parks I can stuff up! Hyundai would be good, my last car was a Hyundai Scoupe, I rarely had a problem with it, sold it cause it was only 2 doors. I might look into the brands you mentioned. Umm what is a HT Leads and a TP Switch?
Nelle- Where are you?
LOL Shell... I actually own the 'SCOUPE' number plates! Don't own the car tho.
crap just fell down the 3 steps out the back and I think I may have jerked my neck :( god it hurts, thank god I waited for jack to have a nap before getting clothes off line otherwise he would have been in my arms
****e ****e my kneck and back are killing me
Hi Anna** Gymbaroo was fun as always. James cries when we have to go home. Then he is so razzed up, I can kiss goodbye to him having an afternoon snooze. Lucky he had 1.5 hrs this morning which is more than he usually does.
The Roseola is all gone and he is not contageous any more (hence going to Gymbaroo)
But I had to let all the parents know at Gymbaroo, as he could have given it to them from when we were there last week. (He got sick Late Weds nite, so he could have passed the bug on)
Rach.. oh me too! So strange! I wonder if its the HGW playing with my mind.
Shell.. oh i hate when that happens! Oh some people get funny like that.. but youre the ones living there not them. Poor DH. :hugs: Well, at least he has you. Cars.. i have a Nissan Pulsar, so does my mum (hers is a little older than mine) but neither of us have any had any problems with them.. theyre great. Ive had mine for over a year and never had to have anything fixed yet (touch wood). Mum had another Nissan before that and found it great also.
Anyways, i have a killer headache up the back of my neck so will continue later..
Nelle is around just taking a break :)
Shell, I have a Ford Focus so not exactly in your price range unfortunately but I absolutely love it. Im going to cry when we have to sell it soon :( I finally reasoned Ry into the fact that we need a new, bigger car. Im still gunning for a Ford Explorer but he wants a Falcon.
tell him falcon no good for car seats no bloody room, we have a 04 falcon and have to have Jack on the side as with the carseat in centre Jase who is 6'4" can't have his seat back properly, so the same will be when we have 2 car seats :dunno: what we will do then
Nelle,you down mate? Just lurkimg.Hope you feel better to chat soon.
Rach thats terrible falling down stairs.Hope you dont feel stiffer tommorow.
Glad james is better and the roseola is gone.
Small cars,mmm my sister has a mazda 4 door.Was about $10000 but they would be cheaper now to buy. A hyundai excel i have heard good reports.
