Fell on my way to the bus stop :,,( palms skinned and knees badly grazed...usually Id be fine but ive my period and im over sensitive

Getting there · 21-04-2012 12:30pm

Supernanny is my secret guilty pleasure. I love when she gets really cross at the parents and loses her post english accent. I love Saturday mornings - supernanny, tea and toast and jam. Nom non nom

Lola92 · 21-04-2012 12:37pm

I am on a first aiding course for kids today and while it has mostly been quite good I have had to stop my self from correcting the instructor a couple of times...:/ we have done a lot on child protection, abuse & neglect in children in college and he kind of just skimmed over some of it and made no distinction between physical abuse & neglect, kind of just brushed over it. It made me wince a little

Novella · 21-04-2012 12:43pm

I wish I was the kind of person who would just study and not find a million and one other things to do instead!

Why is it that I feel all happy when my underwear is actually matching? And to top it off, my nails match them too!

Oh stop... First aid courses can be great, but I've done two, and then went to do my EMT course.. And the stuff they just graze over in the first aid courses that we learned in the EMT course that are vital is ridiculous!

FouxDaFaFa · 21-04-2012 2:08pm

Posy, that sucks about your course!

I'm in Westport at a confirmation, had to leave for some air. There's 130 kids to get through, we'll be here all day!

spent the last few days painting my house in a pair of mens boxers and a tee, smugly satisfying.

Babybuff · 21-04-2012 2:32pm

I also stirred paint with a stick.

TeletextPear · 21-04-2012 3:03pm

I hate how my bf's work schedule and mine completely differ. I was off all week while he worked. Now that he's got the weekend off, I'm working late shifts both nights. Then he's back to work on Monday and I'm off for another few days. It'll be something like three weeks before we have a day off together

Novella · 21-04-2012 3:05pm

New bedsheets. Floral patterns brighten up my life.

Bubblefett · 21-04-2012 3:14pm

Why bubblefett is happy today:

1) I went to a charity coffee this morning and had far too much coffee, scones and cakes. It's okay. When it's for charity you don't gain weight

2) I'm making home made pizza for dinner. I love homemade pizza cause I can have loads of anchovies and no one judges me :P
3) I've officially been off my antianxiety meds for 3 weeks now and I'm feeling awesome!! Now when I get anxious a bit of rescue remedy does the trick. It feels great to have all the crazy toxins out of my system

Wheeeeee! I'm going to go play on the swings (by which I mean play xbox)

Yeah, it's the floral patterns. Nothing to do with the guy you have under them

almostnever · 21-04-2012 3:26pm

Still ploughing through the same article. It's so long and dense and blah that I think it will take me all weekend to actually finish it but I feel so good about life right now that I don't even care

angeldelight · 21-04-2012 3:34pm

Work is boring me to tears... roll on 6pm! I hate working Saturdays

x Purple Pawprints x · 21-04-2012 4:01pm

Might not be back on until Monday. Spending the weekend with himself. I'm so happy at the moment!

Have a great weekend everybody!!

21-04-2012 4:49pm

Had a not-so-nice dream about my interview next week last night. Eep.

sillymoo · 21-04-2012 4:53pm

Looking out the window of the library at all you "general public", out shopping and having fun in the sun. Smiles on your faces.

I hate you all.

(don't worry I will return to loving life on May 3rd hopefully)

I'm in work until 9.30 tonight, if that helps.

The Lovely Muffin · 21-04-2012 5:05pm

Is there anything nicer than waking up to cuddles and kisses in the morning?

Such a nice day outside, yet here I am sitting inside on the couch with the sun beaming in the window and keeping me warm

Bf is making tea now

One of the problems is that there is really very little regulation of who teaches first aid courses. You don't ever have had to have dealt with a sick person in your life to be an instructor. You just have to do a course. That makes me sad and cry :P

The guy teaching ours was a paramedic, and quite good. I just think that there is too much content to be done in any way comprehensively in a one day course. I have experience of first aid courses in the past and I did it in life saving for a couple of years too so I would be familiar with most of the content, although it is updated quite frequently. I would hate for some one to get a false sense of security from having done a basic course and think they are some kind of medical professional!

I'm also considering doing an occupational first aid course and potentially organising one for a group of us in college. Any suggestions for providers, especially around paediatric first aid, would be much appreciated!

Our occupational first aid courses are all run by a doctor with years of paediatrics experience, and are no more expensive than most courses out there. I'll PM you details so I'm not seen as advertising.

Just been reminded of this video- saw it on sky news one night. Made by a man fighting cancer for his wife of 7 years birthday. Sadly he passed away this january. Makes me hate cancer more, but my god what an amazing video

Heading to the cinema in a few, can't wait! Hope it's not too packed, I always prefer it's quiet but especially when I'm going on my own I want to be able to hear it so I can properly enjoy it.

What are you going to see?

I went to see cabin in the woods last night and it was......a bit too gorey for my liking but still real good....................very clever : )

Ilyana · 21-04-2012 7:04pm

Work was mental, I'm wrecked now. We had about 50 cyclists in for lunch, don't know where to look when the men are wearing those lycra shorts

herisson · 21-04-2012 7:38pm

Their crotch of course... Why else would they wear them if they didn't want you looking?

Exactly.

I find myself with the exact same problem when i'm swimming. Sometimes the dudes are wearing smaller togs than some of my thongs

One of my mates is trying to get me to go to Limerick tonight. If she had asked me earlier I prob would have gone. Too comfortable now.

pampootie · 21-04-2012 7:54pm

My head hurts. Want to start a pension and I am so utterly stupid with that kind of stuff, have just spent 2 hours looking stuff up and am now even more confused. Tempted to just cut a hole in the mattress and set up my pension fund in there instead. Time for beer I think!

Off to Italy in 2 weeks and they only allow speedos in the pools..... My husband plans on wearing shorts and only whipping off the shorts when his going for a dip in the pool as soon as is back on terra nova he will put on his shorts again.... he hates speedos..

I hope there are no men their with white speedos :eek: they might aswell go naked

you should talk to a pensions adviser they'll sit you down and tell you simply what kind of stuff you need to do
if you want to retire with a pension per month of 50% of your current salary then you need to contribute whatever

I've filled in a request for callbacks with a few places alright. Is there such a thing as an impartial one that tells you what you're meant to be looking for in terms of rates etc? I'm assuming the ones that are going to call me are obviously going to be promoting their own products!

Orla K · 21-04-2012 9:35pm

The internet is boring tonight, horrible pms all day so got nothing done and randomly crying for no reason, going to cook my meatballs and sit down to a film.

Also got a cooked chicken half price, I can never resist end of day half price chicken.

Thinking about opening a bottle of wine but I'll probably end up drinking one glass and falling asleep.

Tauriel · 21-04-2012 9:53pm

So annoyed with my bad luck when it comes to cars!

My Aygo which I have had just for a week packed up on me today. It was so embarrassing! People were overtaking me on a roundabout but I finally got her going and she got stuck in neutral so I had to get out and let my dad try to get her back home. Worst part is that I am a learner and everyone was probably thinking that I am a terrible driver. I had a quick look behind me when I was getting into the passenger side and there was a huge string of cars behind me. The driver in the car immediately behind me did not look impressed. If looks could kill - i'd be dead! I thought I was going to cry!

cee_jay · 21-04-2012 10:00pm

Submitted my dissertation yesterday. Bit of any anti climax but the MA is now done! Been a long 2 years.
Was out in Dublin last night - had a brilliant night. Supposed to be meeting friends in Limerick tonight but way too wrecked/hungover. But its the best hangover I've ever had

Anywhere you like, we won't mind...

Actually, if you wouldn't mind admiring our beautifully toned and muscular legs rather than staring at our protruding bellies ('cos lycra shows everything) we'd be more than grateful...

Yeh there's coconut flour and Tritamyl Gluten Free Flour by Odlums. Trying to find the latter one.

FouxDaFaFa · 21-04-2012 10:40pm

Lots of photos today for my cousin's confirmation. Lots of me messing up the balance of a picture because my skin is so pale it glows under some camera settings. I iz ghost!

My foundation (the lightest in the range) is now too dark for me.

You can get tritamyl in tesco. Doves range of flours are by far the best that I've tried:)
Oh and if there's an asda anywhere near you, they do an awesome, reasonably priced gluten free range
