Noni - I hope the classes go well honey, I am sure they will... I hope you do manage to BF this time if it is what you want...sounds like you are doing all you can to ensure it can happen for you. I forgot (sorry) what were the issues last time with A? was it her lip? i hoipe you get the care sorted, sounds like a good option...and that miss A will benefit from it too. why didnt the council pay back your bond yet - can they transfer it to the new place?
MD - LOL at keeping us all in suspense!! you can tell me - i am not an ebayer!! I def think you have done the right thing with the care - you can always pull her out, but getting in at short notice would be harder. and as much as it is a financial burden you can always pick her up early if you have the energy and want to have some special E time but you have the option. options are good when you arent well! does H go to FDC after school?
Gypsy - your friend sounds wonderful, and it sounds like you had a good night in!
AFM all is ok... N is still doing well at kindy - had a good sleep again yest there and all, and they are amazed how he is adapting. that said he had a real cry when i dropped him off this morning. the full on grabbing my legs and balling... but they managed to distract him quickly yest so i am sure he is ok. he came home the last 2 days really hungry - i know he eats heaps there (they write it all down) but i think he needs another snack - they give arvo tea at 2.45 and then he has dinner at home at 6. maybe he will adapt or i just have to do bigger dinners i guess? his night sleeping is still the PITS - but we have a date for QE2 (when iam 37 wks preg - eeeek) so there is light at the end of the tunnel. his bed arrived this morning - i wonder if that will make it easier or harder??? poor little guy has had a lot of chg recently - i am amazed how well he copes with it all... what a gem!!! i guess the biggest chg is just around the corner now!!!
Trill - hope bro op went well - will he be out of shearing forever or just for a season (i think thetre are shearing seasons?)
Arte - I am with MD - i think you will be able to CREATE a p/t position for yourself - dont ask wont get and all that...
