    Hi all, I had one of those digi thermometers, that are supposed to give you a reading in "seconds". However what they don't say is you need to keep it in place for several minutes before that so that it heats up to the right temp before you switch it on! Aaargh - if I'd known this all along I probably wouldn't have waited so long to get help when my wound got infected. So the moral of the story is, if you're going to use a thermometer, use it right - or just go with your mummy instinct!!

    Gracie and Pregpan, I wonder how much they would charge for a whole vat of Dermadoctor Wrinkle Revenge, so I can just dive in and shave off ten years or so LOL! Aaah I'd so love to lie in a bath full of something decadent (champagne maybe, or rose-scented goats milk) if I can't afford the Dermadoctor!

    Oh better go, Grumpypants is doing her thing.

    Hey guys!

    Wanted to let everyone know I got a job! I wasnt looking for a job because I wasnt really that keen but this job has just fallen in my lap! They wanted me Monday & Thursday 12:00 - 5:00pm and I told them I could only do Tuesday and Friday which is when my mum can have Rory. They got back to me this morning and agreed with those hrs. Ill be working for a tourism magazine, how interesting!
    Although I dont know what ill do if mum gets called into work on those days as her work is short staffed as it is, she is the only one who can come in! Heh I guess ill worry about it if it happens.

    OH Sweeeeet Renee, what a great turn out that is. I loved working in the print media industry (I was a typesetter did graphics for our local paper for a few years). Congratulations!

    Gracie, IKWYM about the sleep - even with A sleeping so well of late, I was still really tired. Last nights escapades was shattering for me - early night here I think.

    Marydean, so what malarky did Miss Grumpypants get up to?

    Sherie, she is sooo overtired and grumpy after getting up too early, skipping a sleep (well 20 mins instead of 2 hrs) because I was out getting work stuff sorted out, then only a short nap this afternoon. Typical - whingeing, falling over, regular grumpypants stuff.

    Renee, congrats, sounds like a really interesting job, and excellent hours! Well done. Let us know how it all goes when you start!

    Gracie, no we didn't get to the appt, we are on the cancellation list instead. *sigh* I WILL get better organised one of these days, I will!

    Clare I hope you're teeth feel better soon! The ball pit sounds like fun, I will look out for it next time I'm wandering around in a daze in Kmart ! LOL

    Cally I hope K is feeling a bit better - we're doing toothypegs here too. Not fun. I wish they'd just pop thru!!

    Gotta go, E is crying again!! Sorry for everyone I missed, it just aint gonna happen today! xxx

    Marydean party - Where is everyone?

    Gracie, how is L today, what did the doctor say?

    MM - how is M going, is she much better now?

    Cally - is K feeling better too and are you getting a bit more sleep?

    Also I was thinking about Noni and wondering how she's getting on in the new place!!

    Grumpybum got up at 10ish last night and howled for a bit then proceeded to settle back down and slept through till 6 am. Far out brussel sprout!

    Gasto central here. Man i feel shockin!

    Lu has had a temperature since Friday, but only at night....... so each morning i think she's better then at night she gets hot again. Thought i might take her to the doc today. If i can drag my a$$ out of bed! I don't want to be the over anxious mum at the Dr ever 5 min though.

    Congrats on the job Renee, nice that you got to dictate your hours. I've been thinking about going back to work, but stuggle with the whole childcare thing, no family nearby. As well as the fact that the nearest hospital is about 30-40min away in traffic, so would make for a loooong day. I do feel like i need a bit of extra stimulation though IYKWIM.

    everyone.
