Well, we went to my mums today, but nearly didn't get there. I went to the shop to get some drinks for the journey, and some munchies and walking along, crack went my back. This was shortly followed by an awful shooting pain in my left hip. By the time I managed to hobble home, I was in agony and the pain was almost making me throw up. I couldn't sit down, couldn't stand up, and my leg below the knee had gone numb. I had a pain in my hip joint, down my thigh bone into my knee cap, Alan wanted to take my to A&E, but I resisted and managed to get to my mums. It made me realise though, I really need to get my referal done for my MRI now I've had GJ (they wouldn't do one while I was pregnant) and find out exactly how bad my back/legs are now.
My mum is fine, and I even managed to get out with Alan on our own for a few hours while my mum watched the girls. It was nice. Mum made us some tea, and then she bathed Thea, and mum ended up as wet as Thea was! hahaha We then took the country route home and finally got back about 9:30pm, it's nice to go spend time with them, although I don't consider it home anymore, Liverpool is my home now. It's nice to feel settled.
Then I phoned Adrian, and we had a good old natter as always! We are like a couple of old women once we get started! hahaha
Well, I am off to sleep, GJ's awake I think, but she's not crying so she must be ok! I can hear her gurgling and groaning as she does!
I hope your all well, and have had a good day.

Hiya YoYo.... I'm under investigation for a complaint called spina bifida occulta. But I had to take a break while I was pregnant because they don't like doing MRI's etc when your pregnant, so I've got a long list of referals that now need to be made!
I'm ok thanks hunni. My legs are a bit stiff this morning but that's nothing I haven't dealt with almost everyday for the past 18 years! So I can cope with that! It's just a quiet day in with the kids today, got a parcel coming at some point, and that's about it really. Are you ok hunni?

GJ's driving me mad! She just won't settle! But Thea's been good....so I can cope when one of them has an 'off' day, it's when they do it together I tend to struggle! lol
I don't mind Thursdays too much coz it's pay day tomorrow, so I spend today trying to work out what to pay this week and what I can spend!

WOW! My mum brought some 99% cocoa chocolate back from Belgium, well I've gone one better and found 100% cocoa chocolate! They sell it at a shop in Cheshire! Oooooo I think I might be smiling nicely at Alan tonight! We can't order it online coz we don't have any debit/credit cards, but don't you think a trip to Cheshire would be nice? Maybe we could even get the MIL to have the girls for the day while we go!?

YAY! WooHoo!
Alan's said we can go to the chocolate shop on saturday! Fantastic! I love that man I really do......expensive chocolate and then an AS party saturday night, a man who thinks the world of me, and two beautiful children, life really couldn't get any better!
Sorry, I probably sound so loved up and sickly! lol But I'm in love! lol

Why are people so ignorant and rude? I had to go shopping today, Alan's working, so I had to go on my own with the girls. I think I must have 'please stand in front of me, don't move even when I ask nicely, knock into my pram, knock over my 2 year old, and tut when my baby cries' tattooed on my head! Oooooo so annoying, the shops need to make more room, and NOT try to stock shelves at 3pm on a friday afternoon....oh and someone offering to help wouldn't go amiss! Taxi drivers can be the same. One shop assistant said 'can you hurry up, if you can't manage your children, you shouldn't have them' I was trying to pack my bags ON MY OWN. So her manager came over and said 'X shouldn't you help customers like your paid to do' Ha that showed her! Sorry for ranting, it just annoys me so much, it's bad enough that I get paid on a friday so that's when I have bills to pay without them making the whole thing traumatic! lol Anyway, now I feel better! My MIL is having the girls for a few hours tomorrow, and Alan n I are going to that chocolate shop! YAY! It will be so nice to spend some time together at last! There we go, I can carry on been excited about that now! lol Oh, and natalie, Good luck with the wedding, I hope the day is magical for you. Thanks for listening girls.

Well, we eventually found the chocolate shop, tucked away in a corner, so tucked away the locals didn't actually know it existed! lol I spent a fortune, about £60! Oh well, it's only money!
It was nice to spend some time with Alan and have a break from the girls. I'll explain in more detail on monday. I'm off to see my FIL tomorrow, so might not be on much, but hope your all having a good weekend. Love you all

Thank you hopeful hunni, It's nice to know I am of some help on here, I am glad I can turn very negative issues and situations such as abuse and PNI into something positive that can help others. I will keep in touch as much as I can tomorrow, and my email address is on my profile if anyone needs me as I will check it periodically.

Hiya YoYo, It's been lovely. Yesterday we dropped the girls off with my MIL, we went and got some dinner, and then went to the choc shop, then last night, we bathed the girls and got them to bed. I made fish finger sandwiches for our tea and then we spent some time 'together'
Today we are going to see FIL and then round to MIL's for sunday roast! Yum!
Unfortunately my AS party last night was cancelled, but that's ok. It gave me and Alan some time together, we don't get that a lot.
Thea gets up some time between 8 an 9am, and then she's awake until 7pm when she goes to bed, and GJ usually wakes up about 7:15pm and she's then awake until midnight-1am when I go to bed as well, and as I'm sleeping downstairs and Alan's in our room, it's not easy to spend that couply time that I'm craving now!
As for the choc shop, they have a website and you can order online, I can't because I don't have a debit/credit card, and I'm lucky it's only about an hour from here! How's your weekend?

;D ;D ;D
Well, I have decided to do a counselling course. I think been on here has made me think about counselling a lot, and I think it's something I could be really good at, or I hope so at least. So I searched and found a home study course and then I have set up some work experience at my local womens unit and I am hoping my work on here will help as well, I am so excited!
Thanks to you all for giving me the power, determination and for giving me my life back. I dread to think where I'd be without you ladies. Thank you so much! YAY!
;D ;D ;D

Oh, I forgot to mention. Thea's going to my Dad's for the weekend on friday and my MIL has said she will have GJ overnight on saturday night so Alan n I can go out as a couple! It's been over a year since we spent some proper quality time together. So YAY at something else! lol Ooooo this is going to be a good week, I can feel it!
