So I set up another blog dedicated to Bubette for my friends and family to keep updated. I was planning on copying each post over to this blog, but I didn't want to bore everyone with continuous baby talk and also I've been too busy to change the names in all the posts to our annon names, or even to sign out and sign in back and forth to each blog! (Do you know how time consuming that actually is?!)<br /></div><div align="left"></div><div id="ms__id597" align="left"></div><div id="ms__id598" align="left"><br />Also because this blog is annonomous (to protect my RAT GirL identity :-P) I didn't want strangers to know my real name, or for unwanted visitors to find me in search engine and link me to my RG comic! So for that reason I couldn't post the link to Bubettes blog publicly.<br /></div><div id="ms__id599" align="left"></div><div id="ms__id600" align="left"><br />BUT! All of my regular readers and blogging friends are most welcome to check it out if you're interested! And if you would like the link to it just let me know and I'll be happy to email it to ya! You can read all about the birth experience and Bubettes health concerns, or you can just scroll through and check out all the piccys of her (there's quite a bit to catch up on.. I don't expect anyone to read it all!)<br /></div><div align="left"></div><div id="ms__id601" align="left"></div><div id="ms__id602" align="left"><br />I'll still use this blog occassionally to vent here and there! But for now I am so busy with my lil mini me, that I just don't have the time to think about myself! LOL!

It's the full on dramatic bad episode of days of our lives every single freakin day (minus the whole cast sleeping with each other and sons and daughters marrying ex lovers mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters and all that crap!! And no one in my life has had amnesia yet... which can I say is the LAMEST illness that soap operas never let die down?!?!!!.... so over it!!!!).</div><div id="ms__id734"><br /></div><div id="ms__id567">Anyways... all the rest of my dramas would make for a good soap! It can't just be little hick ups here and there... NO SIREE! It's gotta be full blown kick in the head DRAMA!!! Followed with a 'HALLELUJAH', and then ending with a 'Dun dun dunnnnnn' TWIST!</div><div id="ms__id735"><br /></div><div id="ms__id571">SO I was thinking about it the other day... and I asked myself the question... WHY THE HECK ME??!! Because it IS pretty unusual! I have plenty of people around me that go through life without the kind of extremes that pop up in my life! </div><br /><div id="ms__id575">But then I realised...</div><div id="ms__id737"><br /></div><div id="ms__id579">I think word must have got out about my RAT GiRL comic... so people in my life must be deliberately screwing with me JUST SO THEY CAN STAR IN IT!!!!!!!!!!! The cheeky shits!</div><div id="ms__id738"><br /></div><div id="ms__id583">*GiGGLeS*... OK maybe that's a bit far fetched... but that's what I'm going to keep telling myself anyway, so that I don't drive myself insane!!!</div><div id="ms__id739"><br /></div>Come on people!! Pretend with me!!! :-D!<br /><div id="ms__id740"><br /></div><div id="ms__id591">Anyways so as you all know (well those you have read) The latest drama has been with the Midwife from hell and all this crazy gestational diabetes nonsense!</div><br />It's safe to say that the bitch has to go! So I've been working up the courage to ditch the bitch and get someone more reliable! But I struggle with confrontation.. so things like this is never easy for me!<br /><br />Usually I let RAT GiRL deal with it! But... honestly... do you think I could really get away with feeding Slackbitch to a crocodile in the real world?.... *sigh* I think not!<br /><br /><div id="ms__id603">So how does one tell a slack-arse midwife to <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Get the hell out of my life you lazy slag of a slack arse bitch, shove your doppler up your fat arse and FFS wear some long pants and cover those HIDEOUS varicose veins that make me want to puke every time I see them!! Pull ya fucking head in and start taking some responsibility, or better yet do everyone a favour and QUIT YOUR JOB because sitting on your arse, drinking coffee and catching up with your friends seem to be all you are good for!!! Oh... and lay off the drugs that you MUST be stealing for yourself from the clinic, because either you're a fucking dumbarse or you're high off ya saggy tits ffs!"</span></em> .... in a nice way?</div><br /><div id="ms__id607">I don't think it's really possible!</div><br />But GUESS WHAT??? It turns out I didn't have to after all!!!<br /><br /><div id="ms__id615">Mum and I went to see her yesterday... I was already pissed off at her and had a million things running through my mind wondering if I was going to turn into RAT GiRL if she was to say anything to make me snap!</div><br /><div id="ms__id619">First of all, when we got there for my 10.30am appointment, the lady at front desk told us that slackbitch had JUST taken another lady in! This pissed us off because she did this the very first time too... She made us wait for half an hour standing in a horrid little room for my first glucose test, when the time was CRUCIAL to take my bloods spot on the dot!</div><br /><div id="ms__id554">Mum had asked her if she had double booked or something to which Slackbitch replied <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"*shrugs* Nah... we were just catching up."</span></em> !!!! No apology or anything! So she got off on the wrong foot with us from the start!</div><br /><div id="ms__id553">So this time, Mum told the lady at front desk... <em><span style="color:#ff99ff;">"Look! She made us wait like this last time! We have an appointment for 10:30am!"</span></em> Mum made it clear that we weren't gonna wait for her bullshit again, so the lady went into the room to tell that we were there.</div><br />Luckily... this made her hurry, but if it hadn't been for that... I know we would have been waiting for flippin ages!<br /><br />So urge to kill... was rising!<br /><br /><div id="ms__id636">But when we got in there... Mum did most of the talking which calmed me down, because I know I may have flown off the handle explaining the drama with the results!</div><br />Mum explained that we were not happy with everything and that she would be taking me to see her personal diabetes specialist to have another PROPER glucose test to be on the safe side.<br /><br />Slackbitch didn't object... so that sat well with me!<br /><br /><div id="ms__id648">So I managed to keep my cool through the whole appointment, it was a nice quick consultation that didn't take very long at all. But I gotta say... during the consultation... her phone rang... and SHE ANSWERED!!! Yapped away for a good 5 mins to some chick.</div><br /><div id="ms__id652">It may have been work related, and usually I don't mind people taking phone calls in the middle of a 'check up' but remember what I said in my last post?...</div><br /><div id="ms__id656">She hang up on me and refused to take my call to give me urgent results BECAUSE SHE WAS TOOO BUSY CHATTING WITH A FRIEND!!!!... The cheek of it!!</div><br /><div id="ms__id660">So it was just about time to go and she was booking me in for my next appointment, and the whole time I was thinking... nows your chance Giggle... ask about getting a new midwife so you don't have to see this bitch again... do it... DO IT.... DO IT NOW!!!!</div><br />But then the most amazing thing happened...<br /><br />Slackbitch says <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"Oh by the way... I should probably let you know, as of next week, there will be another Midwife taking over my position, I am finishing up as a Midwife and going back to my other job... don't worry... this lady is really lovely, but you wont be seeing me any more, and I hope all goes well for you."</span></em><br /><br /><br /><div id="ms__id415"></div><p><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 420px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 336px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://images.icanhascheezburger.com/completestore/2008/7/9/hallelujahpr128600777584839559.jpg" border="0" /> </p><p>I wanted to scream...

So we had to go to the other blood clinic which is a 'sit in and wait' kind of thing.<br /><br />There were many many people cramped and squished on this long uncomfortable wooden bench outside the waiting room! This bench was where me and mum were to wait for AT LEAST 2 hours while I had my glucose test! NOT COMFY AT ALL!<br /><br />I was already very agitated and absolutely STARVING as I had been fasting for the 10hrs before that. Actually to be honest, I hadn't eaten at all for the last 24 hours because I was feeling extremely sick all day before, and by the time I was actually hungry, it was too late... it was time to fast!<br /><br />So I was really crook, and now had to wait even longer to even start my test, as it was now first in best dressed and not via appointment. (and there were A LOT of people in front of me, just for one off blood tests.) I was actually the only one out of all of these people that was there for a glucose test, so i was a little disappointed that they couldn't get me started asap.<br /><br />And there was only ONE poor nurse that had to look after us all! She was very lovely and helpful, but gosh I felt so bad for her as she had no one to help her!<br /><br />The only entertaining part, was watching the looks on each face of the people who would come around the corner to find the room packed! Some looked like they had just stood in dog poo, others stood like a frozen dear in head lights wondering whether they should stay or come back NEXT YEAR!, but most people just looked as though they just sh*t a brick and kept walking! (Thank heavens because that would have been more people we had to wait for!)<br /><br />Because an emergency appointment was made for me at the W&C clinic, I didn't need any paper work, but now that we were in a different section, we now had to wait for someone to bring us a form to fill out before they would even CONCIDER putting me in line. So that meant that the more people who came in... the longer we had to wait.<br /><br />After waiting an hour and still no sign of this 'form' Mum confronted the lady for answers, because by this stage I couldn't even stand I was so weak! But the nurse felt so bad for us that she actually bent the rules by putting me through without paper work! She told me that she could get in so much trouble for it, but she could see I was getting restless and decided to let me get started with it. So information was scribbled on a piece of paper for the time being.<br /><br />First she took my fasting blood test and handed me this horrid green glucose drink to scull! (It was HIDEOUS!) It tasted like pure lime cordial that WASN'T watered down. YUCK!<br /><br />Then the actual waiting began... I had to sit still for an hour on that horrid wooden bench until my next blood test.<br /><br />I became really nauseated and restless, felt like I was going to faint, or vomit or both. I kept getting hot and cold flushes, so this glucose drink obviously was not reacting well with my body.<br /><br />An hour later it was time for my next blood test. She used my other arm this time, but had trouble finding my vein!! So in and out and in out out the needle would go! It was awful! Then!! When she finally found the vein... the suction on the syringe was apparently broken, so when she tried pull it out, something went very wrong and the needle actually broke and bent in my arm!! It was soooo painful!<br /><br />She said that the needle must have been really old... and then got a new syringe and was successful finally with another vein! But Boy have I got a big bruise from that one!<br /><br />So another hours wait, and feeling more and more faint (and my arm aching!) Eventually it was time for my last test.<br /><br />Meanwhile the form STILL hadn't arrived.. so she got Mum to go and fetch it for her (should have done that in the first place!)<br /><br />For the third blood test she had to use the other arm, because she mangled the one before! But it was quick and easy this time. Then she quickly jotted everything down on the form, and quickly entered all the info into the computer system (she was extremely rushed off her feet.) And finally we were free to go! Where we would wait to hear the results via a phone call the next day.<br /><br />There was one concern I had about this whole thing and that was that they never asked me for my Pregnancy Health Record. (Which is a little green book that all pregnant patients must have with them all the time, and all information is to be read and stored into this booklet, to keep track of everything.)<br /><br />But no body asked for it, so I found that quite strange.<br /><br />But anyways... after getting some food in my belly and going home for a huuuuge sleep, I was feeling much better!<br /><br />Now let me tell you about how slack that Midwife of mine is...<br /><br />The next morning I woke up to find a message on our answering machine from my Midwife who had left the message one hour before.<br /><br />It said <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"Hi ummm, Giggle is it? It's Slackbitch from the hut here... listen your test results have come back and they are extremely elevated so I'm going to need you to call me back ASAP.... or what ever... on this number... *reads number*"</span><br /></em><br />So I start getting anxious again, and I get straight on the phone and try to call her! But the phone rings about 3 times and then is disconnected (it was obvious she had deliberately hung up the call.) I got really cranky, because that is rather a rude thing to do, so even though it was obvious she didn't want to talk to anyone, I tried ringing again and again anyway!<br /><br />Finally she rudely answered... <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"YES? WHAT IS IT?!!"</span></em> I was stunned! But replied <span style="color:#cc33cc;"><em>"Oh.... hi... it's Giggle, you had left a message for me to call you urgently about my test results?"</em></span> She said <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"Oh yes! I'm just busy at the moment, I'll call you back later!"</span></em> *She hangs up*<br /><br />So I waited a couple hours anxiously for her call, and finally she returns it...<br /><br />Her: <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"Hi Giggle, sorry about that, I was just catching up with an old friend!"</span></em><br /><br />(I'm thinking... oh... that sounds important! Too busy to give me urgent results because you are catching up with an old friend!!!!)<br /><br />Me: <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"That's ok... I was just anxious to hear this emergency?"</span></em><br /><br />Her: <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"Yes, your results have come back extremely elevated, so you need to make an appointment with the hospital urgently for a glucose test!"</span></em><br /><br />Me: <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Sorry hang on... so I have to go have another test at the hospital?"<br /></span></em><br />Her: <span style="color:#ccccff;"><em>"Huh? WHat do you mean another? Your test was here, it came back 9.5"</em></span><br /><br />Me: <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Oh wait a minute, so you're talking about the results from the test you gave me last Thursday?"</span></em><br /><br />Her: <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"Yeah, what else would I be talking about?" </span></em><br /><br />Me: <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Listen, I waited anxiously for your call all Friday for those results, and in the end I gave up and called myself to find out. Another lady helped me out and booked me an appointment at the hospital, which I have since already done, and now I'm waiting anxiously for the NEW results which I thought were what you were talking about."</span></em><br /><br />Her: <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"Oh what a good girl!!!" You're onto it arent you?!"<br /></span></em><br />(I'm thinking, Um yes!!! Better than you ya slack B*tch!)<br /><br />Me: <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Oh, but they didn't record it in my green book, should they have?"<br /></span></em><br />Her: <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"What? Oh that's not right... they have to record everything in that book, in fact they usually don't want to know you with out it!"<br /></span></em><br />Me: <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Oh no, so what does that mean?" </span></em><br /><br />Her: <span style="color:#ccccff;"><em>"I'll ring them and see if they have your new results and I'll call you back, but the only thing is, that if the results are extremely elevated, you may have to get a new midwife, a specialist."</em></span><br /><br />(Me thinking... well damn... lets hope the results are bad then!!!!"<br /><br />Me: <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Thank you for calling, I appreciate it!"<br /></span></em><br />So I waited for ages for my phone call, but I was really ticked off at how slack she had been and I rang Mum to have a winge about it LOL! But just as Mum answered I got call wait, and so I had to call Mum back.<br /><br />It was Slackbitch with the results...<br /><br />Her: <em><span style="color:#ccccff;">"It's me... everything is clear!"<br /></span></em><br />Me: <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Pardon?... Whats clear?"</span></em><br /><br />Her: <span style="color:#ccccff;"><em>"Your results from the glucose test!

The second reading doesn't matter... everything's fine, What's better is you don't have to get another midwife!"<br /></span></em><br />Me: <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Great!"</span></em> (in a sarcastic manner!)<br /><br />So after all that... apparently I'm in the clear!!!<br /><br />With all the dramas that went on, we were a little concerned that maybe something coud have gone wrong as the process was very rushed and I felt not taken as seriously as it should have been.</p><p>So Mum and I decided to put it to the test ourselves.</p><p>I borrowed Mum's glucose blood tester (where you prick your finger and test the sugar level in your blood) and I got to testing!</p><p>I tested first thing in the morning when I woke up, and it read back 2.5! (Very low, especially concidering the difference from 9.5!)</p><p>Then I had a glass of milo and 2 hours later I tested again... it read back 8.6! (Too high, especially for just having a milo!)</p><p>Then 2 hours after having two slices of toast with apricot jam... it read back 9.4! (Way too high!)</p><p>So something is definately wrong... and we will be getting a second opinion!</p><p>The hospital results may very well have been right, but it's better to be safe then sorry I say! Because this is serious... there is a baby at risk!<br /></p><p>And I'm going to take it very easy anyway and keep my diet healthy and avoid too much sugar.. just in case!!!<br /><br />So fingers crossed!!! </p><p>xx<br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com17tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2670212686566762302.post-61186414445615103162008-10-19T22:57:00.003+10:002008-10-19T23:05:10.494+10:00It aint over 'till the fat lady screams!!<div id="ms__id1135"><br /><div id="ms__id580" align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghjDksLGKmBKQxjpNT9COmJC92FsuUlJ8z9XCuUuRT7lsIZQfXJvqJONjpSRef3PK56aLXaCTc8yCHqyTtLFVrGOnjhyphenhyphenh2jo9DbqyRYtOnY1xCVb4Eo11xbrUWzN9Qpl0p_fhId49J-K4/s1600-h/Giving+birth.bmp"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5258835368559704018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghjDksLGKmBKQxjpNT9COmJC92FsuUlJ8z9XCuUuRT7lsIZQfXJvqJONjpSRef3PK56aLXaCTc8yCHqyTtLFVrGOnjhyphenhyphenh2jo9DbqyRYtOnY1xCVb4Eo11xbrUWzN9Qpl0p_fhId49J-K4/s320/Giving+birth.bmp" border="0" /></a> </div><div id="ms__id735" align="center"></div><div id="ms__id581" align="left"> </div><div id="ms__id1197" align="left"> </div><div id="ms__id1198" align="left"><br /><br />Hello... it's me Giggle!!!

My poor Mumma lives with type 2 diabetes every day! So I'm not complaining... I'm blessed really!</div><div id="ms__id786" align="left"><br /></div><div id="ms__id787" align="left">Just as long as the little one doesn't get effected by it, it's a small price to pay for the moment I get to hold the little treasure in my arms in the end! awww! </div><div id="ms__id789" align="left"><br /></div><div id="ms__id791" align="left">I'm really ticked off at my midwife though, because when I went for the test, she told me that given my family history of diabetes, I had a very high chance of testing positive to it! So she insisted that she would definitely call me as soon as she found out the results to put my mind at ease. </div><div id="ms__id814" align="left"><br /></div><div id="ms__id794" align="left">But come 3:20pm on Friday and still no sign of her call, I decided to ring the clinic myself for the results, and the lady I spoke to said that my Midwife hadn't been in all day, and that if she hadn't called me, then the results must have been fine. </div><div id="ms__id795" align="left"><br /></div><div id="ms__id796" align="left">But she double checked for me just in case... and she was shocked to find such a bad result! Even she couldn't believe that my Midwife hadn't contacted me as I needed to book an emergency second test ASAP! And, the hospital closes at 3:30pm! </div><div id="ms__id797" align="left"><br /></div><div id="ms__id798" align="left">So I had all of 5 minutes to have everything explained to me and then ring up and book an appointment as soon as I could! (They are closed during the weekend!) So I'm not impressed at all! </div><div id="ms__id815" align="left"><br /></div><div id="ms__id800" align="left">Luckily the lady that I spoke to on the phone felt terrible for me and managed to quickly contact them for me just in time and booked me a bigger test first thing Monday morning!! But I'm not very impressed with my midwife at all... I think I may need to find somebody more reliable. </div><div id="ms__id801" align="left"><br /></div><div id="ms__id804" align="left">But anyway... I also have another scan on the 14th of November, as my placenta has been laying low, and I need to find out whether I can give birth naturally or have a C-section. It is also our last chance to find out the sex of bub too (if the little bugger uncrosses it's legs this time) hehe, but by then it wont be long to find out for real anyway! </div><div id="ms__id803" align="left"><br /></div><div id="ms__id807" align="left">But we'd still like to find out if we can... because we are DYING to know!

So he is yet to go to the doctors still, but since then the lump has gone down, but I do worry for him ! </div><br /><div id="ms__id630">And THEN he used his skateboard as transport to do a grocery shop!! (Crazy fella!) And he had a nasty fall and pulled a serious hammy and could barely walk!! So he needed more time off for that too, and to fix his car which he ONLY just got working today! (It's so easy to take these things for granted, we were missing being able to go out when we needed to soooo much!) </div><br /><div id="ms__id631">But other than that, over all we're doing OK!

I thought I'd better post a bit of background on my other blog <a href="http://ratgirlcomic.blogspot.com/">'The Adventures of RAT GiRL.'</a><br /><div id="ms__id5614"><br /><div id="ms__id5571"></div><div id="ms__id5711">But for the readers that already know all about it... KEEP READING coz there's something in this post for you too! ;-)</div><br /><div id="ms__id5710"><div id="ms__id5534">The Adventures of RAT GiRL is a comic that I have created as a way of getting my aggression and frustration out over my unfortunate past, life experiences.</div><br /><div id="ms__id5537">I actually started this comic as an experiment before I fell pregnant when I had decided to quit smoking, and used it as a way to keep myself busy and keep my mind off cigarettes!</div><br /><div id="ms__id5535">I ended up thoroughly enjoying it and it turned out to be a great form of therapy for me, so I've tried to keep it up ever since.</div><br /><div id="ms__id5539">Although I only post a new episode about once a month (because it takes so frikken long!) it is definitely something that I will keep up.</div><br /><div id="ms__id5542">Every episode is based on a real life experience, the characters are based on real life people, and even some of my blogger friends get a chance to feature in it! It's a lot of fun!!</div><br /><div id="ms__id5543">I love to create episodes about some of my best life experiences and joyful events such as meeting hubby and other great things to come. But the main point of this comic is for the people that have hurt me in the past, I use this comic as a way to 'get my revenge' on them, but in a very humorous and entertaining way!</div><br /><div id="ms__id5546">Although this comic is comedy and tongue and cheek, there is actually quite a serious side to it as there are times when I can actually get quite emotional during the creation of them, as the bad memories can be quite painful.</div><br /><div id="ms__id5548">But once I get to the final RAT GiRL scenes where she gets her revenge... it truly is very comforting! Like a drug!!! Even though it's not real... I do get satisfaction out of the fantasy of getting revenge on these butt heads!!! HEEEHEEE! And by being able to entertain others with the humorous side to it, is also a very rewarding feeling!</div><br /><div id="ms__id5550">So to all of my RAT GiRL fan's and readers (you know who you are) it is important to me to let you know that your interest, support and comments on my comic is TRULY APPRECIATED because of the deeper meaning behind it. I don't think you understand just how much it really means to me.</div><br /><div id="ms__id5554"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1fXXiZ_8uwlroB_73RFCM1Zmd_CqLgvx7PdB-p834GYhjHGuSs9_eafyXwnxrLke3rCDLgOphaquYAznNcAt4Zz8eByLp9poWm3IthAJVnySfOCpPlAoZehNTktlul5421AOQ-zVTN2A/s1600-h/RAT+GiRL+Thanks!.bmp"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5252000211946098674" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1fXXiZ_8uwlroB_73RFCM1Zmd_CqLgvx7PdB-p834GYhjHGuSs9_eafyXwnxrLke3rCDLgOphaquYAznNcAt4Zz8eByLp9poWm3IthAJVnySfOCpPlAoZehNTktlul5421AOQ-zVTN2A/s400/RAT+GiRL+Thanks!.bmp" border="0" /></a>And since I can't give you all a physical hug...

It's the pregnancy hormones!! I need to losen up ffs! But today I wish to do a post on a subject that is very serious to me, and that is my love for animals!!!</div><br /><div id="ms__id4458">I must admit that I am a coward when it comes to hearing about or seeing documentaries of animals in suffering, cruelty and torture. I often turn my head, change the channel or shut people down when they speak of heartbreaking stories concerning animals. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4460">My heart aches for animal's, I love them more than humans themselves, animals are my heart and my passion. But it pains me so much to hear of any kind of story of animals in suffering that I selfishly often ignore it, and would choose to turn a blind eye because I didn't want to face the truth. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4462">But in doing so, my dream of helping and giving my support on the issue to the best of my ability was disabled. I would sit back and ignore it without trying my hardest to do what I could to support these animals in suffering when really it's all my heart has ever desired. I always wanted to be a vet to play a role in helping animals in need, but I chickened out because I didn't want to deal with the heartbreak of not being able to save all of them. So instead I chose to save none at all, and I really hate that about myself. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4464">I've spent far too long putting my own feelings above the help needed for these animals, and have wasted so much of my life that could have been spent, doing something to help. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4467">But one day, many months ago I was watching an episode of the Oprah show and it was about 'Oprahs's most memorable stories' at the time I thought that it would be pretty safe as it didn't seem like there were going to be any heartbreaking stories about animals that I couldn't handle seeing. But all of a sudden, unexpectedly a heartbreaking story came up. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4468">At first when they showed clips of animals that had been in suffering, my heart immediately broke and tears swelled in my eyes uncontrollably. I couldn't get to the TV quick enough to switch it off because I didn't want to face it. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4469">I remember specifically seeing an image of this beautiful little dog who had been cruelly abused, violently shaken by it's careless owner and paralysed as a result. It was in that moment that I reached for the switch because I did not want to see any more. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4873">But just before I pushed the button, I was extremely overwhelmed to learn that there was a lady that would take animals like these under her wing and had devoted her entire life to do every thing she could to give a better life to these unfortunate precious little lives.</div><br /><div id="ms__id5034">She uses her own HOME, a residential, non-profit, home, for special needs animals. Here, animals many of whom are terminally and / or critically ill or physically challenged, go to live out their days in peace, dignity and love. Her focus is on wellness and quality of life. She and her family provides for the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of each animal and takes a holistic approach in animal care, giving all needed supportive services including hospice care.<br /></div><br /><div id="ms__id4871">Currently, at her home they care for some 200 individuals of many species. These include dogs, cats, parrots, ponies, ducks, swan, pigeons, geese, chickens and rabbits. Dogs and cats receive a raw food natural diet (B.A.R.F. diet) specially prepared by a local butcher.</div><br /><p>These animals are her pets. Most are free to roam their home and/or the spacious back yard. Dogs and cats are not crated. Only the parrots are caged. The water fowl, chickens and pigeons are penned at night for their protection. </p><p>There is never a fee when she adopts an animal with special needs. They depend solely on supporter contributions which come to her from all over the United States. They even have supporters from as far away as Canada, France, Germany ,The Netherlands, Africa and many from Japan.<br /></p><p>This lady is everything that I wish I was as a person, a selfless angel with a heart of gold and I idolise her more than any other person in this world. I had absolutely no idea that there were people like her out there, because I never took the time to allow myself to listen long enough to hear if there ever was a happy ending to heartbreaking stories such as these. Sure I know of animal shelters and the RSPCA, but I've never heard of any one that has put so much heart into it the way she does. </p><div id="ms__id4475">The thing that touched me the most, was that I was able to suddenly see past the disabled animals in their walkers, bandages and heartbreaking wounds, instead the biggest thing that stood out to me was the joy in their eyes and the big happy smiles on their gorgeous little faces. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4477">These animals are clearly loved and cherished in the way that they deserve to be, and seeing that turned my tears of sadness into tears of joy. It truly was a dream come true, one that I never even thought was possible. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4481">It was after seeing this that I realised that it was time to face my fears and get to doing what ever I could to finally help in any way possible. It was such an overwhelming feeling to know that there is hope for these unfortunate animals and one of the main ingredients is cleary love. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4483">Unfortunately, not long after seeing this episode, I had forgotten to take note of the name of this organisation. I couldn't for the life of me remember the name and I searched for months and months on the internet trying to find it again, but I wasn't having much luck at all. </div><br /><br /><div id="ms__id4485">But 2 DAYS AGO... the most amazing thing happened. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4486">I was doing my daily blog reading when I headed to read <a href="http://nitebyrdsnest.blogspot.com/2008/09/psas.html">Nitebyrds recent post</a>. She mentioned in it about an organisation called <a href="http://www.angelsgate.org/theanimals.htm">'Angels Gate.'</a> I immediately had chills as it rang a bell to me and I realised that it was the name that I had been searching for all this time!! She even linked the site to it, so after many months of searching for this organisation, suddenly with one click of the button it was staring me right in the face! (THANKS AGAIN NITE! xx)</div><br /><div id="ms__id4861">The name of this lady that I speak of is <a href="http://www.angelsgate.org/aboutus.htm">Susan Marino</a>, the founder of Angel's Gate... my Idol!</div><br /><div id="ms__id4488">Now that I have finally found Angel's Gate, I have no idea where to start. I'm just taking it all in at the moment because it has touched me so very deeply in ways that I can't even describe. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4491">Of course when I get a chance to discuss things with hubby, I'd like to look into giving a donation of some kind. Although we are really struggling financially at the moment, with hubby not getting much work due to a bad back, me having no job and being pregnant, expecting our first child in January, this is not going to stop me from contributing in some way. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4493">In fact, a donation alone just doesn't seem like enough to me, I wish to do something far greater to support Angel's Gate! I have no idea what I'm going to do at this stage but I vow to dedicate my support to Angel's Gate in any way that I can. </div><br /><div id="ms__id5131">I intend to go to tremendous lengths to help in any way that I can, whether it be a fundraiser or something even bigger if possible! I will research into it and see what I can come up with, because this means the world to me. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4865">But in the meantime, I wanted to start by doing a post about this amazing act of selflessness, kindness and dedication to these animals in need. </div><br /><div id="ms__id4868">And I ask that if you too are an animal supporter and are just as touched by Susans dedication as I am, please <a href="http://www.angelsgate.org/theanimals.htm">check out their website</a> and maybe even offer a small <a href="http://www.angelsgate.org/donations.htm">donation</a> if you can afford to.</div><br /><div id="ms__id4874">You can even <a href="http://www.angelsgate.org/sponsorship.htm">sponser an animal</a> if you want to... they are all so adorable! I wish I could sponser them all!!!</div><br /><div id="ms__id4876">But I've got my eye on this this angel...</div><br /><div id="ms__id4947"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYGXKF3hK2RmT7Gb5v7CiZJauicA1I4AHR9FP-9szoozwMT1Arcxer2fQN6XRq5LZaO-Amac1L3xsw1PIoDB0uJPSCHc2a-qrSLOOqi-6IAM7u35pv0g6xFVz3N_wPLpgKai5ezFTyJLk/s1600-h/abby.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5251909593097722754" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYGXKF3hK2RmT7Gb5v7CiZJauicA1I4AHR9FP-9szoozwMT1Arcxer2fQN6XRq5LZaO-Amac1L3xsw1PIoDB0uJPSCHc2a-qrSLOOqi-6IAM7u35pv0g6xFVz3N_wPLpgKai5ezFTyJLk/s400/abby.gif" border="0" /></a><strong><span style="color:#33ff33;">ABBY:</span> </strong><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Only recently adopted, this sweet little Chihuahua has had a lot of medical attention and the best they can hope for, they are told, is that she will survive and remain paralyzed permanently.

And I will be thrilled if my baby turns out even half as cute as these kids!!!</p><p>Anyways on with the post...</p><p>That top photo was taken at another friend of ours baby's first birthday last Saturday, it was a lovely day at the park where we were surrounded by lotsa kiddywinks!!</p><p>The best conversations are the ones you have with kids, they say the damn CUTEST things, and they don't even realise it! With some of the cutesy convos I had with some of them, I got to thinking about some of the best kiddy lines I have heard and I wanted to share them.</p><p>First of all when I first arrived at the party, I seen a little girl <strong><span style="color:#ffccff;">'Petal' 5 years old</span></strong> who I haven't seen in such a long time. She spotted me first and ran up to give me a hug, I was soooo excited to see her!</p><p>This is how our conversation went...</p><p><strong>Petal:</strong> <span style="color:#ffccff;">*running from a distance yelling with excitement* <em>"GIGGLEEEEEEEE..."</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;">*Hugging her* <em>"OMG Hello Petal!!! I haven't seen you in so long!!! How are you???!"</em></span></p><p><strong>Petal:</strong> <span style="color:#ffccff;">*Catching her breath* <em>"I'm Good thanks, I didn't pee the bed last night OR the night before!!!"</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;">*Giggling* <em>"Oh that's EXCELLENT hunny! You must be very proud!"</em></span></p><p><strong>Petal:</strong> <span style="color:#ffccff;"><em>"Yes! I'm a good girl, aren't I!!"*</em> as she runs to the playground*</span> </p><p>I just love it! I wish we could all be as open as children are!!</p><p>Kids can also be great therapy too!!! Well... sometimes anyway! :-P</p><p>Another conversation I had with her a long time ago was when I was at Trubs house they were having a little gathering and I wasn't feeling 100% with food poisoning.</p><p>Petal caught me with a frown on my face and ran over to me.</p><p><strong>Petal:</strong> <span style="color:#ffccff;"><em>"Giggle why do you look so sad?"</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;"><em>"Oh I'm not sad hunny, I'm just not feeling very well."</em></span></p><p><strong>Petal:</strong> <span style="color:#ffccff;"><em>"Well you should feel happy all the time, do ya know why?"</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;"><em>"Why?"</em></span></p><p><strong>Petal:</strong> <span style="color:#ffccff;"><em>"Because You're BEEEEEAUUUUTIFUL!!!!"</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;"><em>"Awww what a sweet thing to say Petal, Thank you!"</em></span></p><p><strong>Petal:</strong> <span style="color:#ffccff;"><em>"And you know what?"</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;"><em>"What?"</em></span></p><p><strong>Petal:</strong> <span style="color:#ffccff;"><em>"When I grow up, I'm gonna be as beautiful as you too!!!"</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;"><em>*Giggling* "Oh but you ARE beautiful Petal and you always will be!!!"</em></span></p><p>Then you have the kiddy crushes!</p><p>Another time years ago, there was this gorgeous little boy that lived next door <strong><span style="color:#99ffff;">"Spiderman"</span> <span style="color:#99ffff;">about 4 years old</span></strong> at the time. He has an older sister so I use to go over to play barbies with her!</p><p>Spiderman had a bit of a crush on me, and use to pick flowers for me and was keen to do anything for me.</p><p>One day he approached me with something I was not expecting...</p><p><strong>Spiderman:</strong> <span style="color:#99ffff;">*Gets down on one knee* <em>"Giggle, when I grow up I'm going to marry you...!"</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;">*Stunned*</span></p><p>he continued...</p><p><strong>Spiderman:</strong> <span style="color:#99ffff;"><em>"... So who are you gonna marry?"</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;">*Rolling on the floor laughing!!!*</span></p><p>Unfortunately things didn't go to plan... Hubby beat him to it! Sorry Spiderman!!! :-P</p><p>A similar thing happened years ago with my friend Red's little brothers <strong><span style="color:#99ffff;">'Cheeky'</span></strong> and <strong><span style="color:#99ffff;">'Cherub'</span></strong> who are twins <strong><span style="color:#99ffff;">about 5 years old</span></strong> at the time.</p><p>They too both had a bit of a crush on me and would fight for my attention.</p><p>One day when I was over their house I spotted Cherub sitting in the corner crying he's little heart out.</p><p>I walked over to him...</p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Cherub whats wrong??"</span></em></p><p><strong>Cherub:</strong> <span style="color:#99ffff;">*Rubs eyes*</span> <span style="color:#99ffff;"><em>"Cheeky said that he is gonna be your boyfriend!"</em></span></p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;">*Blushing* <em>"Well he can't decide that! But why are you so upset?"</em></span></p><p><strong>Cherub:</strong> <em><span style="color:#99ffff;">"Because I WANT to be your boyfriend! But he says that I'm too young for you!!!"</span></em></p><p>(Cheeky is like 2 minutes older than him!!)</p><p><strong>Me:</strong> <span style="color:#cc33cc;">*LMAO*<em> "Don't worry about it... besides, just between you and me... I think you're cuter than him ;-)"</em></span></p><p>Boy did that boost his little ego!!! Even to this day LOL! (They are now 20 years old mind you!)</p><p>But then you get the ones that can be a little embarrassing! Although this next one was cute as hell it wasn't appropriate timing!!!</p><p>Hubby and I use to go to an awesome church when we lived in NZ where it was always packed with hundreds of people!</p><p>The room was dead silent when the pastor would talk, you could hear a pin drop it was so quiet!!</p><p>There was this cutie little boy <strong><span style="color:#66ffff;">'Pokemon' 3 years old</span></strong> at the time who would love to come and sit with me and Hubby during the service. He would often sit on my lap, sometimes Hubbys.</p><p>This one particular day, he was sitting on my lap facing towards me, and the Pastor was preaching on a very serious subject. </p><p>Pokemon kept poking at the buttons of the pockets of my top which were practically in line with my nipples! Hubby kept whispering to him... <span style="color:#6666cc;"><em>"Pokemon... don't do that"</em></span> because sometimes he would pull the buttons so hard, that my top would start to fall down showing my cleavage!!</p><p>Even the whispers of Hubby attracted attention! As quiet as he was, heads would still turn to see where the whispers were coming from!</p><p>The pastor had JUST finished a speech and was preparing to put a video on for us to watch, when the room went completely silent!</p><p>In that exact moment... Pokemon yells <em><span style="color:#99ffff;">"WOW!!!! You've got BIGGGGGGGG TITTIES!!!!!"</span></em></p><p>And of course there was not one person that didn't hear it and didn't now have their eyes on us!!</p><p>LOL so embarrassing! But at the same time I was pissin myself in hysterics!!! Even the pastor had a giggle!</p><p>I could go on and on about more of the cutest conversations I've had with kids, but this post has to end somewhere!!!</p><p>But the cutest thing yet that was an absolute heart melter was when Trub handed <span style="color:#ffccff;">Grubby</span> a chocolate milk last Saturday night and Grubby's eyes lit up and said <em><span style="color:#ffccff;">"Tocky milk!"</span></em> It was soooo gorjus!!! She's only 1!!! And they are the first (English) words I have heard from her so far!!!<br /></p><p>Just gorjus!!!</p><p>What is the cutest conversation you've had with a child?</p><p>Oh and Muussy... if you're reading this, can you remember a specific funny convo that came out of my mouth as a child?</p><p>xx</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2670212686566762302.post-64018969332253532172008-09-22T05:21:00.007+10:002008-09-23T02:50:13.979+10:00Baby Kicks and Braxton frikkin Hicks!<div id="ms__id364"><a href="http://hawaiibreeze.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/belly-baby-foot.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://hawaiibreeze.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/belly-baby-foot.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div id="ms__id361"></div><div id="ms__id367">OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!</div><br /><div id="ms__id368"></div><div id="ms__id369">It Hurts It Hurts!!!</div><br /><div id="ms__id370"></div><div id="ms__id371">Well I'm almost in my 3rd Trimester now... just coming 25 weeks pregnant, and only 15 weeks to go!</div><br /><div id="ms__id372"></div><div id="ms__id373">(Hang on that can't be right!!!? *Trying to add it up in my stoopid baby brain* HECK!! That's right!!! SHit.. there's not long to go at all! I'd better get cracking on the nursery then shouldn't I!)</div><br /><div id="ms__id374"></div><br /><div id="ms__id375">Anyway! The baby is around the size of a football now with not a lot of room to move! So it's kickin around like crazy, giving my bladder the kicking of a bloody lifetime, and having me very near to setting up camp in the dunny room again!</div><br /><div id="ms__id380"></div><div id="ms__id376">It has the hardest little kick, and you can even SEE it's little footprint and toes sometimes! Unless it's something else!? :-S</div><br /><div id="ms__id381"></div><div id="ms__id377">It's quite a cool experience actually, but it can get kind of annoying when I'm TRYING TO SLEEP!!! Just imagine the heck it's gonna put me through when it is born! :-P</div><br /><div id="ms__id378"></div><br /><div id="ms__id379">But it's the sharp kicking I can deal with! The braxton hicks on the other hand are flamin horrid!!!</div><br /><div id="ms__id382"></div><div id="ms__id383">It feels like my pelvis is a frikking wishbone, and there are two strong muscly men - one on each side, playing tug of war with my HIP BONES!!!

I've been suffering a bit with insomnia! I seem to be able to fall asleep at the computer just fine... and even while I'm on the DUNNY! But as soon as I hit the bed... I am wide awake! So I haven't been sleeping much at all... to the point where I've even been hallucinating!!!</div><br /><div id="ms__id390"></div><br /><div id="ms__id391">I've actually been seeing a social worker for the last couple of months, which has been REALLY GOOD! But she believes that I have a serious case of post traumatic stress! I actually had a breakthrough a couple of days ago, where I was able to finally discover the core of my issues! (The one thing that can fix everything if it is changed!) But it is soooo deep and such a long story, I'll save it for another post.</div><br /><div id="ms__id395"></div><div id="ms__id394">All I'll say for now, is that she was so spot on the mark, I actually fainted when she brought it up because it was that intense and so hard to hear, and something that I have avoided thinking about for like the last 17years it hurts that much!</div><br /><div id="ms__id396"></div><div id="ms__id397">It is a good thing, because I have come to a huge realisation, but it has also had me an emotional wreck having the past brought up and being confronted with it like a punch in the head!</div><br /><div id="ms__id398"></div><div id="ms__id399">So it has had me on edge lately, even to the point where little things have made me snap, even smashing cups and plates and stuff just to release a little anger!! :-S Eeeeek!!! But my Social worker says it's all normal at a time like this.</div><br /><div id="ms__id400"></div><br /><div id="ms__id401">Another thing that has been playing on my mind is that one of my old class mates from high school committed suicide last week! He gassed himself in his car!</div><br /><div id="ms__id402"></div><div id="ms__id403">Don't feel the need to give me condolences because although we were in the same class, I never really knew him, so I don't feel the pain of losing a friend. But I couldn't imagine how his poor family and close mates must be feeling, so I do feel terrible for them and him, who must have had it tough to go through with giving up his own life.</div><br /><div id="ms__id405"></div><div id="ms__id404">It has effected me though that someone MY age could end their life so young! I mean, suicide in any situation is devastating, but from someone my age, who went to my school, and was in my class is all the more devastating and scary to me. It's so scary to think that tragedy's like these can happen far too easily. </div><br /><div id="ms__id406"></div><div id="ms__id408">The suicide rate has certainly increased lately too and it scares the heck out of me!!</div><br /><div id="ms__id416"></div><div id="ms__id410">Too much pain in the world!!</div></div><div id="ms__id6078"></div><div id="ms__id6079"><br /><br />Speaking of tragedies happening so easily, hubby had the day off work today because he has had serious problems with his back.

From the games and prizes…</div><br /><br /><div id="ms__id2571" align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpYSYAVROzHq2ku_DHCfQIpzsE89zkqrv2oQlRspL7d2oEK0StPqc104bOfqfN4EpKaQ3CeHgZbsyQ5OOHBxn2gxt9S6NeTqfpmLY6iMm2SKa0advTwRXkAh1H_oYwZLPC0ilYTfF9-F0/s1600-h/Hens+9.bmp"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246719560045954418" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpYSYAVROzHq2ku_DHCfQIpzsE89zkqrv2oQlRspL7d2oEK0StPqc104bOfqfN4EpKaQ3CeHgZbsyQ5OOHBxn2gxt9S6NeTqfpmLY6iMm2SKa0advTwRXkAh1H_oYwZLPC0ilYTfF9-F0/s320/Hens+9.bmp" border="0" /></a> </div><div id="ms__id2589"><br /></div><div id="ms__id2585" align="center">To my cute little outfit…</div><p align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246713191473528658" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBisGbFPWexrMUOhLGagBYmug5oookr622s9JxGgpUo7CxF4hT78buHh8jGxB2aV_ZTwgumCwS1_0lIHQTR4Ffep8ubhwAIn1g6M3Wa7dJIZzZysw5GUJmbJU8HPWxwLvVxk-Oj3t1Bns/s320/Hens+1.bmp" border="0" />From the food and cocktails…</p><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246717923123497314" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS0OAQFZC1NkvsfNLtROC3yE2k01gXsT3m_4GPfsw6quDVYXvKgAsurpRQIEA2lzUi6sFUf6E21c9p7glewJbEuNbhFFEMgmTAbQiE-z8IzpuLaptyJWo5IhUXX4bQMkec_2C8rVtuPTQ/s320/Hens+7.bmp" border="0" /></p><p align="center"><em><span style="color:#33ff33;"><span style="color:#cc33cc;">(Our pink G-String cock waiter!)</span><br /></span></em><br />To my fun dressed up guests!!!<br /></p><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246714607998225186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhC0LLnDnXEUoCI4EBqFycUndJliNxL0Vw33rkE9dg9hYUaUmKgsGeH_rmhcFUAimuWpZPeSWgHjNkc2Zdh18g-4S_WbOvOX8WDs7Pa8f6L572hWxECP18H6zSm3bEWo5uF3rWN_LZRj7w/s320/Hens+3.bmp" border="0" /></p><p align="center"><em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">(Red, Cockwaiter and Hef)</span></em><br /></p><p align="center">First we had cocktails and played games at Muussys house…</p><p align="center"></p><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246735547297505810" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKhCgnmbonDFwlh3FJ6Yj2Fyy2AAIYgF0AK5ru_nVCjlBhl_pKlNuU8IXEXdre4VFAhmtsjJVRXR2joEqfShl_rvSFWrQL7Lf2RLtKzS2QEtqFtLknewxNYereJhLkg_-W93WkQuLYTlk/s320/Hens+10.bmp" border="0" /></p><p align="center"><em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">(Hef and her Mama)</span></em></p><p align="center">And then we went on a pubcrawl!<br /></p><p align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246715444918083698" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4nyrfOEuoOqtCEIVO6OSUVSw07tgSRFhptdtAtA_Os1sseYOYqME9SkJS5T_iqhw3VJAW1jU7WOEJtTC7YvnXc7MwSVwtCPFxdCPRHDcthM4lc9JbKG-wNAtFsPrhB8rnGU0-KrUgbxY/s320/Hens+4.bmp" border="0" /><br /><em><span style="color:#33ff33;"><span style="color:#cc33cc;">(On the bus)</span><br /></span></em><br />Where we were forced to follow really hard rules and had to scull alcohol from a hideous funnel if we broke one!<br /></p><div id="ms__id2574"><br /><div id="ms__id2570" align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIPwpLVhu-qYb6t8GDRhhb5CgsIFN62Ix8w5__HgSbjgsFqIyys1LWCCXZ6tLs8Y7VYtas6dKRDcjD5IZUa71aXYaKK0Tn7pHCcTYJoBLfRidim7i48jSX7gT3Vimj5iBt3-m7SW2o5hQ/s1600-h/Hens+5.bmp"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246716224375803282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIPwpLVhu-qYb6t8GDRhhb5CgsIFN62Ix8w5__HgSbjgsFqIyys1LWCCXZ6tLs8Y7VYtas6dKRDcjD5IZUa71aXYaKK0Tn7pHCcTYJoBLfRidim7i48jSX7gT3Vimj5iBt3-m7SW2o5hQ/s320/Hens+5.bmp" border="0" /></a><br /><em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">(Me sculling from a penis funnel from in between <span style="color:#33ff33;"><a href="http://trubldramblings.blogspot.com/">Trub's</a></span> legs!!!

I’m NOT going to waste my time posting them! :-P)<br /><br />But the guys tackled Hubby down and handcuffed him to a blow up doll (*GiGGLeS*) and then they dragged him into town.<br /><br />Heres a pic of me with his blowup doll…<br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246717240810473922" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjURzHqQeEC2JH5TaRDYw-4ByHgcQTPxEltJ6gg1fNKBD22axV0F-xdZEbCxEL2Nb5sd5vuBujVy79hWc-by1NV0sDKUV-gt-MAkt9HZKjw3J01D8He2RTMhcKvNHehkYNzzJitSWG0THs/s320/Hens+6.bmp" border="0" /></div><br /><div id="ms__id2578">All was a great night for him until he ran into a guy who I’ll call Dread (because he has dreadlocks) and his girlfriend ‘Slag’ (because ffs she is one!!!.)<br /><br />I’ve actually mentioned Dread before in my ‘<a href="http://motivationless.blogspot.com/2008/03/end-of-breakdown-or-beginning-of-one.html">MONSTER 1’ </a>story… but it is a RIDICULOUSLY long post to read again just for the section on Dread!<br /><br />So to cut a long story short… I met Dread years ago, he was a mate of my ‘Ex’ and we were great friends, I bent over backwards for him, I thought I could trust him and I had great respect for him!<br /><br />After coming back to my hometown years later after living in New Zealand for a couple years, I got a job in a construction company where (as most of you know Monster 1 attacked me!)<br />I was surprised to find that Dread was actually a worker there so it was great to see him again and catch up.<br /><br />The problem was that Dread and Monster had a very strong friendship, so when all that crap happened with Monster hitting me, of course Dread took his side.<br /><br />But the thing that Dread and his Girlfriend did that I can never forgive them for, was on the night of my Hens night and Hubbys bucks night… They spread all these horrible rumours to Hubby about me – such as I had apparently offered Monster to have sex with me in the bathroom!!!!??? (Which he wouldn’t have turned me down if it WERE TRUE!!!)<br /><br />Dread tried to convince Hubby not to marry me and that I was nothing but a slut and a liar!<br /><br />I’m so grateful that Hubby never believed him for a second, but it really broke my heart that Dread (who I adored and thought the world of) tried to sabotage my own Wedding just DAYS BEFORE!!!<br /><br />Could you imagine what could have happened if Hubby believed him?!!!<br /><br />I still cry myself to sleep about it!<br /><br />So you guessed it my friends!!!

But at least on the night before our Wedding he got to make up for it by spending all night at a strip club with his groomsmen! *GiGGLeS*<br /><br /><br />OK… so <a href="http://ratgirlcomic.blogspot.com/2008/09/night-to-remember.html">NOW</a> you can go and see the episode!<br /><br />By the way… I know it takes AGES to load the piccys even more so with each new episode added - as the more pictures there are - the longer it takes to load. So I’m very sorry, but it wouldn’t be RAT GiRL without the pictures! LOL So please just bare with it, be patient, and open it up and let it load in the background while you do your other things, and get back to it when you’re ready for a giggle!<br /><br />It takes me about 6 hours to upload each fecking episode!

<br /><div id="ms__id964">
<br />Bloody hell!!! As I write this... and I mean RIGHT NOW!! I've got a head scratchin Hubby searching around the HOUSE for the remote control! </div><div id="ms__id971"> </div><div id="ms__id970">
<br />
<br />So what eh? Whats the big deal?!</div><div id="ms__id969"> </div><div id="ms__id972">
<br />
<br />Well... fair enough to want the remote control... it's handy to have and get yourself comfy on the couch with the TV in your control, saving you from having to move at all!</div><div id="ms__id973"> </div><div id="ms__id996">
<br />But the thing that really annoys me... is that Hubby just REFUSES to walk up to the TV to either change the channel... or turn it down.</div><div id="ms__id974"> </div><div id="ms__id995">
<br />And right now my friends... he isn't looking for the remote control to CHANGE the channel but to turn the volume down!!!.</div><div id="ms__id994"> </div><div id="ms__id997">
<br />
<br />This is how the conversation went:</div><div id="ms__id975"> </div><div id="ms__id993">
<br />
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Ooooo heck hunny, that TV is a bit loud, could you turn it down a bit please... it's BLARING in my ears!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1023"> </div><div id="ms__id992">
<br />Hubby: <span style="color:#9999ff;">"Um ok, do you know where the remote is?"</span></div><div id="ms__id976"> </div><div id="ms__id991">
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"No Hun! You probably left it in the dunny room again!"</span> (Yes! He'll even take it to the shitter, he loves the damn thing so much!)</div><div id="ms__id977"> </div><div id="ms__id1024">
<br />Hubby *Walks PAST the TV and heads to the dunny, to see if its there* <span style="color:#9999ff;">"Nope, not there."</span></div><div id="ms__id990"> </div><div id="ms__id1025">
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"COme onnnn turn it down, it's killin me!"</span></div><div id="ms__id978"> </div><div id="ms__id989">
<br />Now I'm watching Hubby pull off the couch cushions one by one... searching to see if it slipped through the cracks!!! </div><div id="ms__id979"> </div><div id="ms__id988">
<br />Oh! Now he is looking UNDER the couch! ... Nope... not there!</div><div id="ms__id980"> </div><div id="ms__id987"
<br />
<br />Well! Now he has even walked UP TO THE TV to look on top of the TV for the REMOTE!!!!</div>
<br /><div id="ms__id1026">
<br />Will he turn it down using the TV? Will he?...... Will heee?.....</div>
<br /><div id="ms__id1027">
<br />SO CLOSE!!!</div><div id="ms__id981"> </div><div id="ms__id986">
<br />And now he is distracted again by the bright colours of the television... he's slowly backing away.... backing away....
<br />oH! He's sitting down again, eyes haven't left the screen!</div><div id="ms__id998"> </div><div id="ms__id985">
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"HUNNY!!! YOU DIDN'T TURN IT DOWN!!!"</span></div><div id="ms__id999"> </div><div id="ms__id984">
<br />Hubby: <span style="color:#9999ff;">"I couldn't find the remote!!!"</span></div><div id="ms__id982"> </div><div id="ms__id983">
<br />Me: *Standing up from my desk and walking over to the TV (To where HE JUST WAS) and turning the sound down on the tv control panel (hard to miss!)*</div><div id="ms__id1028"> </div><div id="ms__id1000">
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Why didn't you just turn the fecking thing down on the DAMN TV!!!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1001"> </div><div id="ms__id1002">
<br />Hubby: <span style="color:#9999ff;">"I couldn't be bothered!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1003"> </div><div id="ms__id1004">
<br />
<br />So it baffles me how Hubby 'Couldn't be bothered' to walk up to the TV to change the channel or the volume, but he can spend a good 10min doing strenuous exercise SEARCHING for the remote! Even looking AROUND the TV (But he still couldn't be bothered to lift his finger to the button while standing RIGHT THERE!!!)</div><div id="ms__id1005"> </div><div id="ms__id1006">
<br />
<br />Like the other day... Hubby had the day off work because of rain, and when ever he is home we enjoy watching Dr Phil together! But with my sleeping pattern all over the place, I had been sleeping in till late. So Hubby agreed to wake me just in time to watch Dr Phil!</div><div id="ms__id1007"> </div><div id="ms__id1008">
<br />
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Don't forget to wake me for Dr Philly Cheese hunny! You know I hate to miss it!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1029"> </div><div id="ms__id1009">
<br />Hubby: <span style="color:#9999ff;">"I wont forget, it's a good one we wouldn't want to miss!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1030"> </div><div id="ms__id1031">
<br />(In fact - it was the second part to the first part that we watched so it was ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT!!)</div><div id="ms__id1032"> </div><div id="ms__id1010">
<br />By the time I had woken up.. it was long past Dr Philly time! I came running out into the lounge, hoping that my clock was wrong - to find Hubby laying down like a couch potato watching some weird arse SBS show that he wasn't even enjoying!</div><div id="ms__id1033"> </div><div id="ms__id1034">
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"HUN??? DR PHILLY CHEESE TIME???"</span></div><div id="ms__id1011"> </div><div id="ms__id1035">
<br />Hubby: <span style="color:#9999ff;">"OH Shit!!! Sorry Bub, I forgot!!!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1036"> </div><div id="ms__id1037">
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"YOU FORGOT!!? But... you were looking forward to it as much as I was!!! HOW DID YOU FORGET!???"</span></div><div id="ms__id1038"> </div><div id="ms__id1012">
<br />Hubby: <span style="color:#9999ff;">"Well... I remembered about 20 mins before hand, so I went to change the channel but I couldn't find the remote. I searched and searched but couldn't find it anywhere! So in the end I gave up and forgot all about it!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1039"> </div><div id="ms__id1040">
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"Have you been watching this crap all day?!!!!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1013"> </div><div id="ms__id1041">
<br />Hubby: <span style="color:#9999ff;">"Yeah, it's rubbish! But I didn't have the remote to change it, so I've been stuck watching it all day!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1014"> </div><div id="ms__id1042">
<br />Me: <span style="color:#cc33cc;">"USE THE FUCKING TV YOU TWAT!!!!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1021"> </div><div id="ms__id1043">
<br />Hubby: *Scratching his head*</div><div id="ms__id1020"> </div><div id="ms__id1019">
<br />Me: *Changing the channel on the TV to something better!*</div><div id="ms__id1018"> </div><div id="ms__id1017">
<br />Hubby: <span style="color:#9999ff;">"Ahhhhhh.... that's better!"</span></div><div id="ms__id1015"> </div><div id="ms__id1016"> </div><div id="ms__id1022">

Who is also a very dear friend of mine and I too was sad to see her go, but I am happy to still have contact with her via facebook and email! </div><br /><div id="ms__id1193"></div><br /><div id="ms__id448">Misssy states that during her blogging experience she has realised 5 things, which I wish to repeat because I believe we ALL can relate to these things... </div><br /><div id="ms__id1194"></div><br /><div id="ms__id438"><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><em><strong>1. That she'd become set in her ways in the blogs she read.</strong> </em></span><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="color:#33ff33;">Me tooo!</span> </span></div><br /><div id="ms__id1175"><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><strong><em>2. That she hadn’t been actively looking for new good stuff so it was all her fault. </em></strong></span><span style="color:#33ff33;">Guilty!</span></div><br /><div id="ms__id1195"><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><strong><em>3. That she pretty much ignored people’s blogrolls, which is a bit stupid. </em></strong></span><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="color:#33ff33;">It's too easy not to!</span> </span></div><br /><div id="ms__id1176"><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><strong><em>4. That good blogs are bloody hard to find (there’s some right shite out there, isn’t there? If you don't believe me try Stumble Upon and you'll see...). </em></strong></span><span style="color:#33ff33;">Tis true, Tis true! Like this one time... while I was surfing the blog sphere I clicked on a blog titled 'cutie pies!' Me expecting to find a sweet innocent blog full of cute stuff like animals or babies and things was shocked to find a blog full of gay pornography!!! DOODLES and BUMSEX EVERYWHERE!!! *cringes* My poor virgin eyes!</span></div><br /><div id="ms__id1196"><strong><em><span style="color:#cc33cc;">5. That you can’t rely on your old favourites to keep on keeping on, you’ve got to seek out new favourites once in a while</span>. </em></strong><span style="color:#33ff33;">So true!</span> </div><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><strong><em>6. And that she can’t count. </em></strong></span><span style="color:#33ff33;">*GiGGLeS*</span><br /><br /><div id="ms__id1177"><span style="color:#33ff33;">So she started this meme to gee us all up! It’s called Kick your Blogroll up the Arse.</span></div><p><br /><strong><span style="color:#ccccff;">The Rules of Kick Your Blogroll Up the Arse</span></strong><br /><br /><span style="color:#ccccff;">(Hint: This is the cut out bit for you to post)</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#ccccff;">What you do is you go to four of your favourite blogs and pick a blog from their blogroll that you’ve never visited or commented on. </span><br /><br /><span style="color:#ccccff;">You then add them to your blogroll or feed, read them for at least a month (by which time there should be no turning back) and give them a chance to invade your life.</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#ccccff;">Then you duplicate the main part of this post with a note on whose blog you got it from. </span><br /><br /><span style="color:#ccccff;">Stick the four new blogs you are going to read up , tell us briefly why you chose them and whose blogroll they came from. </span><br /><br /><span style="color:#ccccff;">And if you want, coerce others mercilessly into joining in. Then start reading.</span><br /></p><div id="ms__id476"></div>OK! So... I have chosen these:<br /><br /><div id="ms__id833"></div><br /><div id="ms__id1179">First I went to <a href="http://triloquist.blogspot.com/">Ronnies</a> blogroll because I knew it would be safe to pick ANY ONE of his readers! Because anyone that follows Ronnies blog is MOST LIKELY going to have a great sense of humour! So! The person I randomly chose from his blogroll was... </div><br /><div id="ms__id836"><a href="http://islandgirl4ever2.blogspot.com/">Leesa</a>!!! Her name caught my eye because it was only yesterday that I met a very lovely lady with the same name... so i took it as a sign! The link led me to her blog <a href="http://islandgirl4ever2.blogspot.com/">'NEWS FROM FRANCE'</a> and sure enough, I liked what I saw! From what I've read she does have a great sense of humour and apparently she gives out free brownies too! :-P Bwahahaha!!! Ok Maybe not! But if I do some serious sucking up, maybe she'll give me the recipe because they look screen-lickin good!!!! Welcome to my blogroll dear Leesa! Prepare to be stalked! :-)</div><br /><div id="ms__id1181"></div><br /><div id="ms__id1197"></div><br /><div id="ms__id823">Next I headed to <a href="http://trixieonthehunt.wordpress.com/">Aunty Vi's</a> blogroll, because well quite frankly - any friend of hers is a friend of mine! So the victim I chose...</div><br /><div id="ms__id837"><a href="http://www.ihatetheearth.blogspot.com/">Fwengebola</a>!!! Ok so I cheated a little here! Because there were soooo many to chose from - I got Aunty Vi to recommend someone that she think I might like! Well she proves to know me well because the link led me to his blog <a href="http://www.ihatetheearth.blogspot.com/">'I HATE THE EARTH'</a> and before I laughed my arse of at his posts, I was already in hysterics at his profile alone, and the gorgeous little photo taken of him at 6 years old!!! HAHA!! (Like a redhead Harry Potter!) Now I also know that he will be on holidays soon and probably wont be posting much for a while, but I like what I see so much that I'm gonna keep him anyway! Welcome to my blogroll Fwengebola! I look forward to reading more of you! </div><br /><div id="ms__id1183"></div><br /><br /><div id="ms__id822">Next I went to <a href="http://texaswordtangle.blogspot.com/">Rhea</a>s blogroll who is also a witty character and undoubtedly attracts fun attention in her neck of the woods! So many to choose from though, this cowgirl has A LOT of friends!!! So I scrolled down her blogroll and searched for the most appealing blogname I could find! Which was...</div><br /><div id="ms__id840"><a href="http://shannonsnuthouse.blogspot.com/">Welcome to The Nut House</a>!!! What can I say!!! It sounds like my home! And right at home is how I felt when I entered <a href="http://shannonsnuthouse.blogspot.com/">Shannon</a>s blog!!! Anyone who starts a post off with a *Burp* followed by a photo of a DELICIOUS yummy meal... becomes an instant friend of mine! *GiGGLeS* Welcome to my blogroll Shannon! I'll be popping in for dinner often!! :-P</div><br /><br /><div id="ms__id820">And lastly I stopped by <a href="http://onthem104.blogspot.com/">:-Daryl's </a>blogroll to search for my lucky last victim! Daryl also has a good range of friends that share the same interests so I knew I couldn't go wrong! The blogname I chose...</div><br /><div id="ms__id843"><a href="http://www.britgalusa.com/">Brit Gal' in the USA</a>!!! Because I love Brits to bits! I love a girl who calls herself Gal' (hehe) and I am curious to know how a Brit Gal' fits in to the new lifestyle of a chilled out place with tornado's after living a high stressed life stuck in traffic! I was impressed with <a href="http://www.britgalusa.com/">Brit' Gal Sarah's </a>blog! Who is not afraid to do a gruesome post about her toenail being ripped off and sharing the gruesome photos to prove it! Gotta love the gross stuff! :-) Welcome to my Blogroll Brit' Gal!! I can't wait to see more photos! :-D</div><br /><div id="ms__id1199"></div><br /><div id="ms__id486">SO there ya go!! I've adopted 4 new Blogger buddies whether they like it or not! hehehe!</div><br /><div id="ms__id1186">I urge that all my readers do the same too (even if you're a lurker!... Yes you! I can seeee youuuuu! :-P) ... because I do believe it is a very neat little project, and a great way to make some new friends! But I respect that not everybody may have the time or even the desire to meet new people at this stage... so I shall leave the ball in your court! </div><br /><div id="ms__id1188">Thanks again Misssy Moo!!</div><p> </p><p>OTHERWISE...</p><p>I've just discovered from the lovely <a href="http://mrsexyblueeyes.blogspot.com/">Lady in Red</a> another great little way to find great blogs from an amazing little widget named 'BLACK BOXES' created by a very talented lady named <a href="http://www.insearchofadam.blogspot.com/">Caroline Smailes</a>!</p><p>It's incredible!!!

Well as some of you already know... my dear real life mate <a href="http://trubldramblings.blogspot.com/">Trub</a> had been expecting to have a baby any day now!! </div><div id="ms__id3773"></div><div id="ms__id3775"><br />I was actually chatting with her on msn at around 1:30am this morning when she went into labour!!! (I couldn't sleep because of my snoring Hubby and snoring cat as I spoke about in the post below!)</div><div id="ms__id3776"></div><div id="ms__id3778"><br />So I was immediately overwhelmed with the thought of the baby coming, and I asked that she and her partner 'Crazy' keep me informed with what was going on!</div><div id="ms__id3777"></div><div id="ms__id3779"><br />At around 2am they called me from the hospital to say that the baby was definitely going to be born very soon! I actually live quite near the hospital... so Crazy ducked over to pick me up and brought me back to the birthing suite where I got to watch THE WHOLE THING!!!!!</div><div id="ms__id3782"></div><div id="ms__id3783"><br />It all happened so fast! AT first I thought "OMFG Giggle what the hell are you thinking! You're going to witness the horrendous pain that I myself will have to experience only months away, and there is no bloody turning back now!!!"</div><div id="ms__id3787"></div><div id="ms__id3785"><br />But it was really quite a comforting experience (if you know what the hell I mean!) </div><div id="ms__id3786"></div><div id="ms__id3788"><br />Trub did awesome!!! At first she was calmer than me!!! She was the one telling ME to relax and to 'breathe in and breathe out!' I thought 'Hang on! Isn't this suppose to be the other way around!?' LOL! But when I finally pulled myself together and trusted that she was in good hands, I relaxed a lot more for her.</div><div id="ms__id3789"></div><div id="ms__id3792"><br />After all is was HER in labour and not me! heehee!</div><div id="ms__id3790"></div><div id="ms__id3791"><br />I sat with her through her contractions... her screaming in agony (the poor poor darling) and I was blown away with how polite she could be to the midwives while under so much pain!!!</div><div id="ms__id3795"></div><div id="ms__id3793"><br />She helped me understand so much that I had no idea about, and talked me through the process of what was happening and what to expect next! She's AMAZING I tell ya!!! AMAZING!!!!</div><div id="ms__id3798"></div><div id="ms__id3794"><br />So at 3:47am this morning out popped a beautiful baby boy!</div><div id="ms__id3797"></div><div id="ms__id3796"><br />She even gave birth on her DUE DATE! Which is pretty rare! </div><br /><div id="ms__id3799"><br />I thought I was gonna be scared off for life watching the baby come out... but when I saw the head... I just could not look away! And I wasn't freaked out at all! It was very overwhelming actually, and surprisingly I found it very comforting!</div><div id="ms__id3805"></div><div id="ms__id3800"><br />In fact! It wasn't any where near as bad as had ever imagined it to be! So I am sooo glad that I was there, and so, so privileged to share this experience with them. Thanks Darlings!!! It's one experience I'll NEVER FORGET!!!</div><div id="ms__id3804"></div><div id="ms__id3801"><br />Trub will be seeing the doctor some time this morning, as bub is not quite in the clear yet (with the scare of a gap in bubs scull that showed up in her scans.)</div><div id="ms__id3803"></div><div id="ms__id3802"><br />But I feel he is gonna be fine... because he looks absolutely perfect!!! :-)</div><div id="ms__id3806"></div><div id="ms__id3807"><br />Sorry... I haven't a piccy to show ya's yet! I rushed out so fast I forgot to grab my camera!</div><div id="ms__id3808"></div><br />But I'm sure Trub will post some soon and with more details on the gorjus little bundle of joy!!!<br /><div id="ms__id3814"></div><div id="ms__id3809"><br />CONGRATULATIONS TRUB AND CRAZY!!!!</div><div id="ms__id3813"></div><div id="ms__id3810">He's beautiful!!!</div><div id="ms__id3811"></div><div id="ms__id3812"><br />(I hope this has made sense...
