Family Forum / Parenting / Mothers / April 2006

OK so someone asked me the other day, "Why are you bored? you have 3
kids and you're bored?" Well, I'm one of those people who can't stay at
home with the kids 24 hours 7 days a week. Plus kids don't seem to be
enough, production wise.

wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :o(

You are a warm, caring and cheerful person.  You are a good mother.
And you have enough smarts to go back to school and be a success.

For the past two days I have been having troubles logging in again. This
time around I get the message that I'm not authorised to view the page

Ks dress has a zip(per) in the back. it goes in between the main fabric
and the lining. I've basted it to the fabric as per instructions but it
leaves a raw edge visible, jutting up to the teeth. Should I un-baste it
and put in a small hem to make it tidier or whould this throw ...

I know I've been MIA for a bit.  My FIL is here and things are great.  He's
definatly not the person I had pictured in my head.  That's a good thing.
The only problem is we've all been battling a stomach bug with frequent
visits to the toilet.  NO FUN....  Other than that all is ...

As Chris has started talking rubbish! My question is how often does your
rubbish get collected? At the moment here its weekly for both general
rubbish and recyclables but our local council has seen fit to start

Till Christmas.  Are  YOU ready ;)
