Addy, the baby's coming I tell you! ;)


The baby is perhaps finding some other way out :eek:

::joking:: :p

Hahahaha oh god can you imagine! Unky I have another 4 months left! I'm going to explode soon! Oh and I'm finding out what the sex is in 2 weeks! Il be sure to tell ye all :D

Haha, better not wear a skirt.I'm sure if she did that and skipped the drawers... she'd make somebodies day for sure. :D

I actually enjoy painting. Everything looks so fresh and clean. Usually I can go for hours but I hurt my neck and shoulder recently and they are still a little sore. I'm taking lots of breaks. :p

I bet. It sounds like a career move versus a job. I was excited for you reading about it.


Unky - I know exactly what you mean. I used to travel so much for my job, eating out all the time. I had to be really careful. Do you know what your next project will be? That was what I really enjoyed about working for an accounting firm - always a new challenge and meeting new people. The travel was fun for a while, but it got old.

I used to like painting but I haven't even wanted to for awhile. I need to paint my bedroom but I keep putting it off. I need to do a lot of things but keep putting it off. Haha

Thanks for being happy for me. It will be leaving one job I thought I would retire from to another job that I hope I can retire from.

haha! thanks for the heads up :p id be getting some strange looks :eek: oh and i have this really strange phobia of anyone touching my belly button and it looks like mine is gonna pop out soon and rub off my clothes! aaaaah gross!

That's the pop out timer to let you know when its ready. :D (many turkeys come with those, they pop out when its fully cooked. Not sure they have those on your side of the pond.)

It should be in the appendix of the women's body user manual.

No, I don't know yet what it will be. I'm already having some difficulty with managing my own tests and deciding how to perform them all by myself, it's more difficult than I first thought, where in my first project, I only performed the testing. But I'm working through it, and I understand that it's a learning process too, so I think I'll be fine :)

About the travelling... I've heard rumours that the people who seem old and worn out are the ones who travelled a lot... and when I mean a lot, it's really a lot lot lot :eek:

I'm sure if she did that and skipped the drawers...she'd make somebodies day for sure. :D

Yea, I bet somebody would be a happy camper for sure. They might even pitch a tent.

That may have been wrong!

Ahh, I'm voting... girl Addy :)

Wait... there's a women's user manual! :confused:

Hahaha my Va-jay-jay is being discussed I see! Hahaha

I've been wanting to do it for a while, but with my time off now it will be much easier. My house is pretty big so it will take a while to do all that I want. My good friend Carolyn (you might remember her from a couple of years ago) is having a baby in September and I also told her I'd paint the baby's room for her. Oh well, it will keep me out of trouble... for the most part. :D

I'll look forward to hearing more about it. I'm still not sure what exactly I want to do when I grow up - no retirement plans yet. ;)

hahaha my Va-jay-jay is being discussed i see! hahaha

That it is. Awkward huh?

Ahh, I'm voting... girl Addy :)

Wait... there's a women's user manual!? :confused:

Unky I actually have no clue what its going to be but I've got some cute names chosen already. Can't wait!!

Seems like a lot to paint. I remember Carolyn, A baby huh? Good for her.
Do you think you can really stay out of trouble? Haha

I want to be a cop or something I really enjoy but it will never happen.

That it is. Awkward huh?

Nah, it'd take more than that to make me feel awkward! Nothing phases' me :p

Unky i actually have no clue what its gonna be but iv got some cute names chosen already. can't wait!!!!

What are the names you have chosen?

nah, it'd take more than that to make me feel awkward! nothing phases' me :p

Good to know! You will fit in nicely then. Hehe

What are the names you have chosen?

OK il tell yea's! You lot are the first to know! Liam for a boy and Dar-lynn for a girl :D

Well I feel special!

I really like the names as well.

ok il tell yea's! you lot are the first to know! Liam for a boy and Dar-lynn for a girl :D

Oh, you changed your mind? Last time we talked, you had Liam and Lily. I think about names all the time... yep, I'm becoming obsessed. :p

Yeah, she and her husband wanted to have a baby as soon as possible. He was a widow and had a child already, and they wanted them close in age. Their son is 3, and very excited about his new sister.

Well, I don't really want to stay out of trouble. :D

I like them... except Dar-lynn maybe sounds a bit too much like 'Darling' lol

No, I don't know yet what it will be.

About the travelling... I've heard rumours that the people who seem old and worn out are the ones who travelled a lot... and when I mean a lot, it's really a lot lot lot :eek:

A lot, huh? I traveled about 50% of the time, and I thought that was a lot. It's exciting at first, when you are young and single. It can be tough on a relationship, though - if nothing else, you miss your SO.

Definitely a learning process. I'm sure you will do well.

I like them... except Dar-lynn maybe sounds a bit too much like 'Darling' lol

Ah see that's why I like it because it sounds like that,

JL I changed lilly because its become so popular in Ireland now, I wanted something original so we settled on that :)

I didn't think so. Haha. Where is your other half on this site? I see him on Facebook sometimes but that is about it.

I understand and yes, like... a manager just came back, the driver of the company just picked him up at the arrival deck to drop him at the departure deck... weird, lol

I didn't think so. haha. Where is your other half on this site? I see him on facebook sometimes but that is about it.

My other half? I'm assuming you don't mean my hubby since neither of us are on Facebook, so you must mean KC? He comes on sometimes, but says he's very busy with work.

I understand and yes, like... a manager just came back, the driver of the company just picked him up at the arrival deck to drop him at the departure deck... weird, lol

I wouldn't like that. I have pretty much decided to stay away from accounting firms now. Especially when we have a family, I don't want to be away from home so much.


I had better get back to my painting now before my paint dries up. It was fun talking to everyone. :)

Okay JLo, have fun! :)

My other half? I'm assuming you don't mean my hubby since neither of us are on Facebook, so you must mean KC? He comes on sometimes, but says he's very busy with work.

I was wondering of you would have knew who I was talking about but you got it figured out. I was just kind of curious.

Have fun painting J-Lo!

Hello? Hello? Hello?

Is there anybody out there?

Great... now you got Pink Floyd's "The Wall" running through my head again.

Yes! Success number two. At least I am not the only one!

Hey Adam o/

Ello Unkster!

How are you on this fine day?

Just had dinner, hence the 'lag' in replying. Tomorrow I will have to get up early to go to the hotel again for last testing, and finalise everything. If we finish early, we might even enjoy some of the features of the hotel, I don't know yet :p

Then, Thursday will be at the office for merging of documents with the other team, then Friday, there'll be a barbecue party at the beach. The 'end-time' is still unknown though, I just hope it's not too late; I have the before last course in electrical domestic installation on Saturday.

And how about you and your new job? :)

Sounds pretty good. I haven't got a start date yet. Beginning to wonder if I ever will...

Aww... Maybe you should give them a call to see the progress of your application/insertion to the job?

I would like to give them a call but I don't think they are the type of people that you call and find those things out.

I see... I wish you good luck! Doing a job is hard, being jobless is harder =P

Yea, I would like a vacation but I haven't been jobless for about 5 years now. I should have started later. Haha

I'm sure if she did that and skipped the drawers...she'd make somebodies day for sure. :D

SMOOTHY! Probably yours.

I'm speechless hahahahaha

Good morning addy.

Finally everyone is here with happy news. Babies, renovations, new jobs. Sometimes it gets so down here. Today I have an interview. Its at a CPA. Not so sure I am what they are looking for but I am excited either way. Funny thing is its not even the one I applied to. They came to me through this hiring firm. Maybe that's a good sign since they saw my resume and wanted to interview me.

Hello my sunshine! Ooh that's faith I reckon! I'm going to keep my complaints for the pet peeves department :p good luck today! Your obviously someone they're looking for if your resume impressed them, you will do great! :D

Well we will see. Either way is OK with me. If I get it then that's super awesome. If I don't then I get the summer with my boy. He only has a month left of school.

I know a perfect name for a girl. Zonalynn... just saying. :o

Zonalynn? Were did you get that name from? Its strange you should say that because my real name is Zoe haha :D

OH addy your to darn cute!
That's actually my real name that's why I threw it out there. Because it is an odd name and never heard of.

OH addy your to darn cute!
Thats actually my real name thats why I threw it out there. Because it is an odd name and never heard of.

Haha that's a cool name! I love its originality! My name used to make me stand out but there are loads of Zoe's nowadays :mad: how did your parents come up with your name?

My Grandmother was named Zona. My mom carried it out from there. I have never heard of a Zonalynn again but I have come across two other Zonas. I had one Zoe in my high school. I hated it growing up. But now I truly love and appreciate it. Its hard to be original.

I used to hate my name too but I love it now :) I'm annoyed about all the other Zoes having my name haha the nerve of them! Haha.

Love the baby names you picked out. I have my heart on a girl and I wanted to name her Ava Rose. But we had a boy. Oh well. I love him to pieces and now don't think I would want a girl. Funny how it worked out.

Oh I'm so glad you said that! Because I would love a girl but id be very shocked if I did, I just KNOW its going to be a boy and I'm always worrying will I love it if it a boy :eek: I think I even posted a question about it on this before. You have so many anxieties during pregnancy don't you? Really ridiculous ones, my latest one is I won't bond with the baby and I won't love it :(

How old is your little boy? And what's his name?

Well my heart was set on a girl. When we were there finding out what it was I was so mad. Truly I was. I think the nurse was shocked. But I did grow to love the idea of a boy after we started to buy things and I had some showers and all the cute hats and presents.

After I had him I had some post partum. Not to bad. During labor I went all natural. It hurt. Enough when they put him on my chest like they do I didn't care at that point. They took him and did what they do but my husband held him a very long time before I took interest.

After we came home for about 3 months I had a hard time. My problem was more how he changed my life but nothing changed for my husband. He still had his freedom. He left to go play his sports. He was able to still work. He was able to go shop with out the hassle of the baby. I was stuck. That's how I felt. I had so much resentment towards him. It got better for sure. After I went back to work and found myself again it truly got better.

I am so happy I have my little man. He is beautiful and makes my heart melt everyday. Now that I sit and think a girl would be terrible for me. I am kind of prissy in my own way and I just can't imagine what a priss my girl would be. I think my son was meant to be for sure and for that I am thankful. We named him Gavin Bruce. We chose Bruce for his middle name because my oldest brother and his oldest brother both passed away.

Sorry to hear about your borthers'. Well your troubles have put my mind at ease, at least now I know my worries arnt completely nuts! I'm worried about post natal depression too but mainly because I'm bipolar but I will be going straight back on meds as soon as its born so I'm feeling a bit happier about that :) I can go on meds now but I would rather not and my moods have been OK so far, its more anxiety I have now. Thanks for sharing your story Sunny, you have made me feel so much better believe it or not :) :) :)

No matter how perfect your feeling or how crappy your feeling its your pregnancy and its your story. Every one of us moms can come on here and fill your ears with whatever. But each of us is different. That's all there is to it. But I am sure we all shared the same fears and concerns.

Is this your first? Its going to be fine. You will be fine. Once the baby is out and all the adjustments are made it will all be just fine. I thought people were crazy saying it all comes naturally and things have a way of working out. But looking back I have to say its true.

Yes its my first. Haha I'm the same, I mean I never wanted kids before, I'm not maternal and I have the weakest stomach ever! I don't know how I'm going to handle vomit and poo! But as you said, everyone says it comes naturally, I hope so, or I will have to hire a diaper changer lol

Oh I could handle the poo better then the puke. I wish you well. We also didn't want children. We have been together since 1991. We had our son in 2003. The reason is because my hubby is a diabetic and he had a sugar attack one night. A bad one. He wasn't responsive at all. They took him out on a stretcher and let me tell you I saw my life flash before my eyes as I knew it. I thought I was a widow. The only regret was not having children. So we talked about it and within 2 months we were pregnant. The funny thing is the reason for not wanting children was because of his diabetes. He didn't want to pass it on. He was a child himself when he got it and it wasn't good for him back then.

What the heck I am getting all personal today. Lol

Haha! Me too! The night me and my partner decided to have kids I got pregnant! I really don't think we thought it all through, but I don't think there is ever a right time to have kids no matter how comfortable you live, you always have the fears of actually becoming a parent! I hope your hubbys illness is under control now

My hubby is fine. We put him on an insulin pump maybe five years ago and it has been a huge change for the better.

Where is everyone? I think this baby talk scared some of them off. Its not catchy people! Ha ha

Dirty diapers... :(

We all have to do it. Addy can put her time in as well. You earn your wings this way.

Haha sorry guys! Think we're done with the baby talk now, glad your hubby is OK now Sunny :)

I was just remembering Addy/Sunny. But I was very fortunate with a fine son and daughter and four great grandchildren.

Stringer I have a question. Do you interview? If so what exactly makes a great interview for you and what makes you hire? I am confidant when I interview but I didn't get the last job I interviewed for and I was fully qualified, didn't need the benefits was a perfect fit all around. All I can think is I was to quiet and didn't expand past the questions they asked.

Yes, and I only interview those that are qualified, usually four or five people.

When everything is equal between them and they have good references it usually comes down to a gut feel.

Posture, eye contact, proper dress, willingness to work with our systems, intelligent to learn quickly, attitude, working with people, getting things done, ability to work well without constant supervision, etc.

Hope this helps some Sunny.

Yes it does thank you. Those are all things I knew employers looked for. I interviewed girls a few times but I only had input on the final decision. I didn't make the decision.

I guess today I need to just be a bit louder and talk about myself more. Usually I answer quick and to the point. I don't want to be a babble mouth either. I wish someone sometime would just say hey this is why we didn't pick you and this is what you can do better.

You would probably slam the door on my face! Lol, I have plenty of attitude though :p

Hey Sunny,

I used to be involved in the interview process at my firm - an accounting firm, so I thought I'd throw in my two cents. The applicants that impressed me made the interview more of a conversation style than a question and answer style. They knew about the firm, about the job, what they wanted to do in life, could express themselves well, and demonstrated why they were a good applicant. You might consider things you did in your past jobs that made a difference. I remember you were in banking for years, which takes a detailed type person who is personable with customers. That definitely relates to work in an accounting firm. I remember a few of the things you said about your last job where you found ways to save the company money and you were looking to establish policies and procedures - again, very relevant to working in an accounting firm.

Sunny, you can call back after your interview that you didn't get the job and politely ask them to take a few minutes to help you, most people will help. Tell them that you want to improve and any advice would be appreciated. Then get them into a conversation and get details.

When we bid jobs and lose I have my sales people call back for the same reason. And I have them tell them that should things not work out like they expected to please call us.. we will be ready.

Is it safe to come out?

Lol yes its safe now! ;)

This is very true. I am always impressed with people that took the time to research my companies.

And also the relaxed/professional attitude works. I tells me how they react under pressure.

Good one JLo

Thank you JLo and Stringer. Like I said not getting the last job I interviewed for made me wonder where I went wrong. Its pretty rare I don't get the job so it kind of make me sit back and think. I will keep everything you said in mind.

I have to run now and get some things together before I get ready and go.

Hey adam its about time. Just as I have to leave. Bad bad boy. Spankings your way for that. Bend over, addy please take the pleasure and spank him for the late coming today.

Bye!

Haha my pleasure! Good luck sunny!

I was catching up and I got here late, I was kind of busy at work too.

All right, I am ready Addy!

Bend over!

Ok, just no funny business... haha

I can't make any promises' haha

Hmmm... not a safe bet.

Darn there's someone messing up the mail of Chery. I just got another of those suspicious links :(

Anytime someone says "Bend over"... and "don't worry."

I'd worry.

Darn there's someone messing up the mail of Chery. I just got another of those suspicious links :(

Its obviously been hacked and if any of her family know her passwords they need to change them or its going to keep on happening

Anytime someone says "Bend over".....and "don't worry."

I'd worry.

Lol ah now, see I never said "dont worry" ;) I just can't make any promises' :p

lol ah now, see i never said "dont worry" ;) i just can't make any promises' :p

Still scary

Oh well, I'm under striked orders from Sunny :p

Ok, lets get it over with!

I have a few others that's want in on the action, "warriors, come out to play-yay! SPANK SPANK SPANK SPANK SPANK SPANK !

Earlier today I bought my bf's mother some chocolates since she finally gets home from a long stay at hospital, but, just as I was getting into bed they accidentally opened and two fell in my mouth!

I just received another one also Unky... it is kind of spooky.

This particular thread is starting to sound like AskIsadora website.

earlier today i bought my bf's mother some chocolates since she finally gets home from a long stay at hospital, but, just as i was getting into bed they accidently opened and two fell in my mouth!

Its always such a shame when that happens :rolleyes:

Haha Addy, I hate it when that happens! The Easter Bunny brought E some delicious caramel eggs, and they just happened to disappear... in my mouth.

Haha the baby made me do it!

Good morning! It's a beautiful day here for a couple hours. I only have a few minutes my son has a family picnic at school I have to be at and its always fun. We actually get to eat the school lunches. Brings back memories.

Addy good girl on sticking with your orders. I give you a raise. I have say I peeked in and I saw bear watching with a grin while adam was getting his bottom blistered. Now what to do with Adam.

Guys this is to funny. I show up to the interview and instantly I feel like I know this girl. I just felt this comfortable knowing feeling. Oh gosh it hit me. She was Alty's clone I kid you not. Same hair and same dark eyes. When she smiled I nearly fell out of my chair it was so much like Alty. She has a twin here in the states.

The interview went well. She was super quiet and shy in a sense. I dominated it and honestly didn't mean to. She was just so quiet. I want the job but not for the pay. But I decided if they offer it I am taking it. Stepping stones is how I see it. If I wait the next offer might only be a pebble if you see what I am saying. I am just nervous about the office. The owner is retiring soon and Alty-clone is taking over the business and wants to grow up. But I truly don't think her personality is strong enough to do that. She truly just was quiet and not sure how to talk with me. Maybe I can be her strength and she will see that.

But I truly dont think her personality is strong enough to do that. She truly just was quiet and not sure how to talk with me. Maybe I can be her strength and she will see that.

Actually, these are the ones you have to watch out for. You know what they say, sunny, silent waters run deep. I see you to be a pretty good judge of character but this one may surprise you.

The owner is retiring soon and Alty-clone is taking over the business and wants to grow up. But I truly dont think her personality is strong enough to do that. She truly just was quiet and not sure how to talk with me. Maybe I can be her strength and she will see that.

Must be Altys doppleganger then :D

Hey tick I was actually thinking that myself. I was actually thinking we might clash because of this. It was interesting. She just was so quiet. I feel like I interviewed her. But time will tell. With the long weekend coming she isn't deciding until next week.

Hey bear.

Hey Sunny :)

Hey bear.

You are outgoing, she isnt; you may find it frustrating. I don't mean you should go into this with a mindset of how two different pesonalities might work, even if you are offered the position and take it, it isn't carved in stone that you have to stay. I do wish you all the best of luck that it could work out for you.

Good Afternoon!

Hey adam are you still here?

I am here now but it looks like you are not Sunny :(

I am here. Just had to run to the post office real quick.
What's exciting your way today?
We have flood warnings being issued until Saturday late PM. Cracks me up. Its been raining for weeks and weeks. We don't need warnings.

Yay you are here, my day has been so boring. Had some tornados last night in my town, about 3 miles from my house. Leveled some houses, flung some cars, and left some people injured. At least there was no casualties.

How scary. Did you see them? There are tornado warnings here also but not close enough to me that I am worried.

Stay safe guys! I have always been fasinated with tornados and the likes, mainly because we don't get them here but I'm sure it's a different reality when your from an area that are prone to them.

We don't really get them in our area either. We have had some minor ones touch down at rare times. But never does any damage like in the other states. I have never seen one. We get cold winters and lots of snow. Of course I think Chicago also beat us on that this year.

Are you talking about that huge tornado recently that sadly killed 120 people? We had it on our news today, it was so bad :(

Oh wait no! Your talking about snow :o

Of course I think Chicago also beat us on that this year

Yep Sunny and I am sick of that part about Chicago the cold 'hurts.'

are you talking about that huge tornado recently that sadly killed 120 people? we had it on our news today, it was so bad :(

Was it Missouri? That's so sad. All of it all over is sad.

Stringer its over for another year. Lets hope you don't get it again.

I should really quit complaining about irish weather, we get a lot of miserable weather but jeeze, not half as bad as USA. We got loads of snow the past 2 winters, it was actually pretty extreme because we weren't prepared for it, our salt factories ran out of salt and there was loads of accidents but on the bright side, I got stranded in sunny spain hee hee

I didn't see them but my sister got some pictures of it. Pretty crazy stuff.

Oh can you upload them? Or pm them to me? Please

Stranded in sunny Spain and then along comes the baby... giggle... sorry but made me giggle with funny thoughts.

You would think, but no, it happened on new years day! Hahaha,

Aww addy your to cute.

Happy new year haha, that's the last time I celebrate by staying to have a quite night in with my significant other :p see what happens!

I will try to post a link of the pictures posted on Facebook from a local website here. It was down the road from me.

https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150195610769939.336530.176953664938&l=f9c8feee19

OK guys I have to run for now. My son has a friend here and I have to get him home. Not wanting to feed another mouth at dinner time my little guy is enough to feed.

Sad pictures adam.
Watch those private celebrations addy. They get you every time. ;)

Later dudes

Speak later sunny! Adam they are cool pictures, it's a pity they leave so much devastation in their wake. Picture number 31 is really good.

Yea that picture is pretty freaky. It looks like we may get another round here soon.

Well I hope you stay safe and its nothing too major!

Stay safe Adam... Hubby was just up in Fremont, but heading down towards the Carolinas now. I frequently check up on the weather forecasts for him and keep track of where he is going.

The season has been truly terrible... I can only imagine what people in all those areas are experiencing.

Good Morning folks!

Aft'noon Adam, how are you

Howdy Bear. I am good, just working last day of the week waiting on the 3 day weekend. Haha. How are you?

Same here, looking forward to the 3 day weekend :)

Hopefully not going to be sober for most of it :D

Sorry about the late reply, boss was at his desk, which just so happens to be in direct view of my computer screen :(

Well I hope you enjoy your days off Bud!

Dang bosses!

Mother is on her way for a visit. That causes me great stress let me tell you. I would have a drink but my house is dry. I love her don't get me wrong. But, well, she is special in her own way. Trust me.

Ah, good luck on that visit, I hope that nothing unexpectedly bad happens :)

Your house is dry?
Nothing?
Nada?

That isn't like you sunny, I'm worried now :(

I know bear. Don't farking remind me. Well I do have Malibu Rum and some Captain. But I am not much for that. Blue Light for me.

No worries sunny, you'll be fine, because your awesome :D


Hi Unky :)

Ah, good luck on that visit, I hope that nothing unexpectedly bad happens :)

Oh nothing ever bad happens its just her mouth. My new house is perfect for us because that's the way we made it. She hasn't seen it yet. She will tell my siblings she doesn't like this or that and run it down. Not thinking its our house not hers. In my 38 years I haven't had one compliment on anything. Nothing. She is like that with all of us.

Hi everyone :)

I see... that must have been difficult :(

Oh well, some people are just like that I guess :rolleyes:

Well I think your great Sunny! Funny sunny :D
Hi Unky!

I will survive. I just dread her visits.

How are you unky? Your always so busy sounding. Have you had any time for play?

well i think your great Sunny! funny sunny :D
hi Unky!

Aww thank you.

I'm 'busing' with some fun stuff ;)

I just added a couple of more scripts for my IRC bot, namely an '8ball' script (which answers questions by random answers most of the time) and I'm working on a 'quote' script (which can save a line if told, and retrieve it whenever necessary).

Have a great Memorial Day to those of us in the U.S. Be with friends and family and please remember...

I'm having a girl!! Woo hoo! Was just at the hospital and the nurse said she's pretty sure it's a girl but I have my big scan Friday to comfirm it.

Congrats Advice :D

Thank you!so excited! I think we're going to call her Mia :)

That's a nice name :)

So how much longer will you have to wait till you get to meet Mia in person, if you don't mind me asking :)

Ask away! I don't mind! I'm due on the 8th of October! Its flying in! Going to go shopping on Saturday to get loads of pink pink and more pink!

Lol Nice :D
That's one colour she'll have plenty of then :D

ask away! i dont mind! im due on the 8th of october! its flying in! gonna go shopping on saturday to get loads of pink pink and more pink!

Small piece of advice for you Advice... lol... only buy her the first cute outfit. I wouldn't spend a pile until after you have your baby shower. If you have that tradition in Ireland. I am guessing you do. We ended up having 3 showers in total and way too much stuff! I have so much stuff we never opened and just regifted after awhile.

But on another note yeee haawww a baby girl. I hope she is healthy and as beautiful as you are.

Thanks sunny! Sadly we don't have showers here in ireland :( it would be fun though, maybe I will start my own tradition lol free stuff! :D

Do it! Its so fun really. It kind of made me uncomfortable getting all the free presents. But its fun to see it all and the cake and food. Not to mention it takes a load off the cost of getting ready for her arrival. If I were there I would start the tradition on your behalf.

Lol aw your so sweet! Thanks! :D :D :D

OMG Addy, don't waste your money on clothes lol! Buy her one special outfit for her home coming. Even if you don't have a baby shower, people just can not resist the temptation of buying cute little out fits for her! Congrats BTW, and Mia is a gorgeous name. I considered it for E, but her father wouldn't compromise ;s

Men! It has taken us forever to agree on a name! I could say I won't buy clothes but id be lying haha I'm just too excited! But il try hold off on buying too many. I've already got loads of unisex clothes so there's not a lot more I have room for anyway, I have a gorgeous light grey and pink pram picked out, hopefully going to get it this Saturday! :)

What's a pram?

What's a pram?

Lol a buggy. Is that what you call it? Or pushchair? We call them a pram :D or buggy :)

Congrats, Addy. :) That's so exciting! Mia is a really pretty name.

Thanks JLo! Your next!! :D

thanks JLo! your next!!!! :D

Haha - that made my heart beat so fast! Breathe, breathe...

For now, I'm content reading about your news and seeing your pictures. ;)

Haha! Oh you will be reading plenty! She had me awake all night kicking me, she is a night owl! Its great to not call her an "it" anymore! I used to feel real bad saying that.

That must be such a great feeling. My mom used to tell me stories about when she was pregnant with me and how my dad would "communicate" with me. He'd play his guitar and sing songs, talk to me, rub my mom's stomach, etc. They were both surprised how much I would respond. I was such a daddy's girl. :)

Pushchair? Tee hee, if I think I know what you are talking about, we call them strollers.

JLo, I used to put head phones on my belly and listen to my fav music. E would bounce around in my belly, and now she LOVES playing and listening to music.

I loved being pregnant. It was such a great feeling. The only thing I hated was the stretch marks and the constant heart burn. Even water used to give me heart burn :( I can't even remember the sleepless nights, but I know there were many. E had colic and holy moley did it ever suck! The only way I could get her to sleep was to lay her on her belly on my arms and walk the floors. Sometimes the car would work too. I bet you are getting so excited. I remember how scared/excited I was when I was getting closer. It was so fun buying all the baby stuff and getting her room all ready. Ahh the joys!

I always have heartburn! I avoid the obvious foods that give it but at this point I don't even know what's causing it, maybe it's the indegestion tablets! That's all I seem to be eating! Lol

Other than that I loving my pregnancy too, my first 12 weeks were quite bad and a lot of the time I'm in bed with severe back pain but other than that its worth it! Haha

She diesnt move an inch as soon as Will tries to make her move, she is actually very unpredictable but I can see a pattern forming now that the kicks are getting stronger, she doesn't sleep at night at all it seems!

Haha - that made my heart beat so fast! Breathe, breathe ....

For now, I'm content reading about your news and seeing your pictures. ;)

JLo don't breath so fast that's how you get in this situation to start with.
Just saying. ;)

Haha. That made me laugh. Naughty Sunny - where's Adam? :rolleyes:

Good Morning!

I am here now...

Evening! Me too :)

Howdy there bud. Unky, you are a genius with computers and things right?

Lol, not really, I'm learning some programming though. On the hardware side... :eek:

Perfect!

Well, if things progress like they are supposed to and my company takes off, I will need some employees. Maybe you could come in and work for me, overseeing some projects. It may be a year until the company is huge but I bet it would pay you a substantial amount of money. :)

Hi there - just nosey old me.

Adam - Is this a new idea you are working on? Different from your new job?

Hi there - just nosey old me.

Adam - Is this a new idea you are working on? Different from your new job?

Yea, I am still going to take the job I was talking about before, but I came up with an idea last week and me and my friend are going to make my idea come possible. Then I will no longer be working for the job I am taking because I would have more money than I know what to do with. Haha

Haha - and more girls than you know what to do with. I'll be interested to see how it turns out. :)

Well if the prototype turns out well then I will get started on production and everybody will use what we are making. I hope it all turns out well.

Sorry, I was scripting another facility to my IRC bot which finally works after many edits I had to change to my database :o

Well, if I can help, so be it :)

That would be awesome! You said Mauritius had a landing strip right? I can't remember if you said they did or not. Maybe within 6 months to a year I will fly out, lay the proposal in front of you, and if you like it, You can oversee all the projects. Making sure things work right. That would be a pretty good paying job for you and you would be good at it. I wouldn't require you to travel if you didn't want to.

Adam, did you PM me? I received something as an email that I think was to be a PM but all it was was your email address?

I got stuck in that rush hour traffic in N.E. Indiana near Hammond. It would usually take me an hour to get home... three hours this time, I am now among the 'walking dead'...

Stringer

Hey guys just doing a quick drive by to say hi. Lol
The weather here has been so amazing yesterday and today. I have some sunshine in my skin, beers in my belly and a smile on my face! Finally nice weather after weeks of rain. Well its calling for rain the rest of the week but who cares. Its been a good couple days.

Hey Stringer, I tried sending you a pm but it said you didn't accept Pm's so I tried sending it email because it said it was an option. So how do I go about contacting you?

I know Sunny, we had a temp of 94 and high humidity but it was great until I got a touch of sun stroke; bad headache and dizzy.

We had a Bar B Que and we intended to have the family and a few friends over (got a new 7 foot grill 'Wow' it's nice) well by the time we had it we had over 70 people; 85 steaks, 90 cheeseburgers, corn on the cob, baked beans with melted cheese, potato salad, beer, Mike's, liquor, soda and all that 'stuff'. We didn't get to bed until around 3:30 am and up this morning to go to Indiana at 6:30... Dragging butt, big time. But everyone seemed to enjoy the food (my special seasonings) and I think they all had a good time. But too much sun getting everything ready; tents, touches, breaking in the new grill...

But we had a lot of fun too...

Okay, but by that time, I'll probably be flooded with my ACCA studies :p

I want to keep programming as a part time, or else, I fear that it comes equivalent to 'work' :(

Yea, I understand you bud. I just think you would be a great asset to any company, I guess I am trying to steal you first.

Lol, I can work for you without pay if you wish, that way, I can work at my own paste too :)

Well, we will see how it all goes, if you provide any help then I would still like to pay you for your time and you could work at your own pace and do as you please.

Oops, yea, 'pace' is the word lol. Too much copy/pasting going on with the codes :p

Hm.. just let me know when you're coming so I can try plan this out :)

Ok, if all goes as planned then it will probably be a year give or take a little.

That was one good time Stringer. Dragging butt is worth is sometimes though isn't it? Good times with good friends.

Sunny!!

Yes it is sunny but very tiring too, we are still doing some cleaning up.

Good Aftermorning!

Ha - I'm barely out of bed. It's early. ;)

16.30 here in ireland! :) good afternoon!

Hi Addy. It's only 8:45 here. I think I might go back to bed. I've only slept about 4 hours so far - one of those nights where I just couldn't fall asleep.

Oh I'm getting plenty of them nights now :( the baby only wakes at around 9pm and kicks me until all hours haha

Anyone around?

I am! We have a heat wave here in ireland, you might laugh since you guys get much warmer weather, 23 degrees but I actually can't sit in it, its too warm!

I'm not laughing. That sounds great. We had snow yesterday - in June! Our temps have been down to freezing every night for weeks now, but we are still getting much better weather than most of the nation. Today is supposed to be nice. With my free time lately, other than working on the house, I've been taking some really long walks - like 6 miles. I'm planning another one today. It should be very pleasant. :)

What part of USA are you from? Wow snow! With the way our weather is, it wouldn't surprise me if it snowed tomorrow! Enjoy your walk! 6 miles! :eek: I must take a leaf out of your book!

I live in Northern Nevada. Not to brag ;), but it's 6 miles in the foothills where I live. The elevation change in my walks is about 800 feet. I really enjoy it. I take my dog, listen to music, and chat with neighbors out walking their dogs. My favorite destination is the library, so I'm usually toting a couple of books back and forth. I've always loved going to the library.

23C? That's 73F... you don't need heat or air conditioning at that temp. That's basically the temp I'd LOVE to keep my house at year around. But it would cost an arm and a leg to keep it that warm in winter and that cool in summer. ( I keep them 69F in winter and 79F in summer)

It was 35C here most of the last week (95F). Was 38C last Sunday and Monday. (100F) where I live. Much cooler today however. Those were not average temps.

But yeah... we do have greater temp swings than you do. The mass of the North Atlantic does a lot for moderating those swings.

Wow - that's hot. We only get 2 months of warm weather generally - July and August, where the temps will reach 100 degrees sometimes. My favorite month is September. The weather is perfect and our community has something really special going on every weekend.

Yeah.. that was a small heat wave, above the average temps. A few towns here actually broke records by a small amount... But not the one I live in.

But its not unusual to hit that in July or August. Usually accompanied with very high humidity as well. We never get dry heat... its always a very humid heat.

I'm in the general area of Washington DC... and it was always historically a muggy place in summer.

We are very dry here. Even when I go to Los Angeles now (which isn't that humid), I feel the humidity. I just looked it up for fun. Our humidity runs around 20% for most of the year, 30% average with the winter months included. I actually had to get used to how dry it was when I first moved back. My skin wasn't liking it.

Well, it was nice visiting with everyone, but time to take my walk and get back to painting. Have a nice day!

35C!! I would die in that heat lol.

JLO there's nothing better than a good book!!

Add 50% to those numbers for our average summer humidity. Meaning add 50.

But I have sympathy for Gulf Coast residents... they have it worse than us.

All I know is that here in Indiana the weather is unbearable at times. Sometimes it can be the coldest place in the U.S in the winter and near the hottest in the summer. This past Monday the humidity reached around 95% and the temperature was 93° so it felt really hot. Tomorrow it is supposed to be about that and I have to work outside all day tomorrow at work.

WG will love you for that Jlo.

Adam, you can PM me about your question...

Hey guys and gals.
I am out in the sunshine having a lawn sale. I never have lawn sales. I usually give my stuff to the salvation army or thrift stores. I mean really who wants my junk, its junk. Woo haa $145 in less then an hour I am addicted.That was fast easy cash right there. All day today and tomorrow what can I end up with? Good I need it!

JLo I love hearing you read. I just got back in to reading now that my son is older. I love reading. I used to be in book clubs. They mail you selections every month. Dork I know.

Good for you. I had one garage sale one time. I didn't really enjoy it. I paid the boys across the street to sit out there for me. I think I made about $500 after their "wages", mostly because I was selling a sofa and love seat. The boys loved it. :)

I'm too cheap to buy books. Can't help it - I'm an accountant. I'm not going to buy something I can get for free from the library. Haha. I usually get 2-3 books at a time. One classic, one from a current popular author (like Grisham, Patterson, etc.), and often one on something I want to learn about - could be cooking, decorating, travel, etc. Right now I'm reading books related to my career change, but I bet you can guess what will be next up. :D

Sitting out here is OK with me. My sister in law is here and we are having some drinks. A lot of the neighbors have been over to look and visit. Its been sort of fun. After today though I am sending the rest to the thrift stores. I hate clutter so storing it all is out of the question.

I buy my books now at thrift stores and junk stores. I paid .25 each for these great books and just sold them for $1 each. How great was that!

Nice Sunny :D

Maybe you could do that as a side project or something, buy the stuff from thrift stores then sell them on at profit, just until you find a job :)

I used to go carbooting with a neighbour a few years back, he'd buy all these powertools and stuff and we'd go to carboot sales everyweekend and sell them. Good times :D

I do not miss having to get up at 4.30 am though to get the van packed, drive there and then setup :)

I know people who do that. They go thrifting and to garage sales and buy nicer things then they sell them on eBay. There are people making good money doing that.

How are you cutie? ;)

Yea that's what I was thonking of, I've heard of people who that and seem to do pretty well from it :)

Im OK I guess, thanks for asking :)

How are you doing Sunny? Well I hope :D

Oh my god this is to funny. We are sitting out here and the neighbor boy just came over. He is talking random things to my sister in law. So he asks me about the new house and said it must have cost a lot of money. I said it was enough money for sure. His next question was "did the doors come with the house"

Wow and he really meant that!
Yes Michael the doors came with my house and the shutter to.
Poor kid.

Lol awww kids say the funniest things :D

He is 14 years old. That's the sad thing! To funny.

Maybe he's being distracted by the lovely ladies he's talking to and can't think straight :D

Oohh good one bear. I like that.

I think he is a little handicapped. Seriously I know he is. But that just was way to out there and made me kind of crack up inside.

Yea I know what you mean, kind of feeling a bit guilty now :o

What are you up to these days? I miss it in passing. Working or schooling now?

Hi everyone! :)

Both... sort of... starting accounting studies this July.

Hey unky. You will be busy again. You are always so busy it seems.

I try keeping myself busy, that's probably why :eek:

That's good. I do to. Its rare that I am ever doing nothing. Watching this sale is the most I have sat around in a long time.

How is the weather your way? Does it start to get really warm this time of year? Do the storms reach you guys?

It's the opposite down under. Google says

"The weather in Mauritius: Cloudy, 25°C, Humidity: 74% and Wind: SE at 6 mph."

It's quite accurate. We haven't had rain for some time though, and one of two major reservoirs possibly has a leak. It's been less than half its capacity for a long time now, and the water company is imposing water-cuts most of the day :(

Well we are getting your share of rain here. We have had rain for weeks. Yesterday was nice but today once again we are clouded over. Strange weather patterns.

What are you up to these days? I miss it in passing. Working or schooling now?

Sorry for the late reply :(

Im still on my placement year at the moment, I start back at Uni again in September, so not long now, but I've a fair few things I need to get sorted out before then, which is worrying me :)

How about you? How are you spending your time when not being an entrepreneurial Yard-Sale Business Woman :D

Hi Unky, busy busy busy :)

The weather here has been gorgeous, really really hot, the weather was so nice that some of us went for a liquid lunch down the pub on Friday :D
Thank God for airconditioning though, work would be so much worse without it :)

Bear no problem on the late reply. I am staying busy better then I thought I would. Just the simple things like house cleaning alone can take up some time. But we have the pool open and ready. Been getting some lawn work done around the house. The hubby is on vacation this week so spending time with him. Sadly we end up having liquid lunches also its rare we are able to do that together so its fun. Two bars on our block less then a mile from my house and daycare makes it way to easy for that liquid lunch business.

Thought I was MIA but I guess everyone is. My husband has been on vacation so we have been catching up on lost time. Its been a great week. He has three more days home. Relatives over for dinner from his side tonight. Wednesday is kayaking while my son is in school. I can't wait to give that a try. We are borrowing some from friends. If we like them we are going to buy some.

Be back in full swing Thursday kids. He goes back to work then.

No worries Sunny :)

Kayaking is great, especially if the weather is nice, you don't even mind capsizing, have fun :D

Hey everyone, its been quite awhile since I have been here but doesn't look like much has happened. I was busy last week training my replacement and this is my first week working for the government.

Awesome, how's it going so far? :)

Kayaking is awesome! It was so great. Just went down the river and sipped some beers. I did capsize in about 6 inches of water. I pulled over for a potty break and clearly had to many. I never laughed so hard. We might go out again in the morning but its looking like rain. I hope not.


Adam, the government?

Hey I'm liking it pretty well Bear.


Yea Sunny, I swore in Monday morning, I now work for the us government.

Glad you enjoyed kayaking too sounds fun

Sunny if your going to capsize anyway why does it matter if it rains :D

Sunny if your gonna capsize anyway why does it matter if it rains :D

I know that I am going to regret this but... is this supposed to be a blond joke Adam. :D :eek: :o

Woah Stringer, that was Bear that did that one not me so don't drag me into this. Haha. But I will accept the punishment from Sunny if there are consequences to be dealt with.

I know that I am going to regret this but.... is this supposed to be a blond joke Adam. :D :eek: :o

Nope wasn't a blonde joke, poor Adam getting the blame :D

I know that I am going to regret this but.... is this supposed to be a blond joke Adam. :D :eek: :o

Oh Stringer this is why we love you so.

Eh them lets go Adam. You want punishment you can first wipe that grin off your face. Wait a minute. Oh this could be fun. Like a scandle in the news! Your in the government now. Call me Monica.

I don't know if I was slipped some happy drugs or what but its been a pretty great couple weeks. I shouldn't feel this way. I am jobless, broke and stressed. Guess things could always be worse.

Agreed Sunny, things could always be worse, but don't let that get you down and stop you having a good time, keep on smiling you hear :D

Aw bear I love you!
Hey I was thinking about you the other night actually. There was some show on TV and I flipped by and it caught my attention. I normally don't even watch TV not sure why it was even on. But some bridal thing in England. Godzilla brides or some god aweful thing. I stopped because the accents made me think that's how you would sound. I know, makes no sense. Amuse me.

Phew, yesterday was really tiring. That fun day organised by the company where I work was indeed fun :p

Though there were some unfairness in the treasure hunt game and that the winners got a ticket they can use to get a whole day at a famous hotel on the island...

Anywhoozit, got some awesome lunch, played a lot with friends and slept like a log at night.

Also finally getting some rain here :rolleyes:

Hope you are all good as well ^_^

That is so great Unky. Finally some play time for you. I was tired out listening to how busy you always seem.


A big Happy Fathers Day to all you dads.

Happy Birthday Unky!!

Well, I always have fun with the things I work with, well okay, most of the time ;)

Thank you again Sunny! :p

Funny, our father's day is the same day as our mother's day here so :)

Your Father's Day and Mother's Day are the same day? That would be much easier. My son has issues and complains there should be a kids day. I remind him every day is kids day for him at this point.

Tell him that he has two: One his birthday and the other is Christmas :eek:

Yes that's a good one.
Of course then there is Easter.

Yes that one too!

He shouldn't have issues now that he has 3 special days ;)
