purplegail Report post Posted November 26, 2007 GO FOR IT!!!!!!! It has happened to me recently and OMG has it boosted my 'feelgood' senses!!!! especially after my ex has been threatening to call social services for going out and leaving the kids 'home alone'. I actually felt brave and laughed and told him to go ahead. 2 things could happen 1. he is laughed at - kids are 10, 16 (aspie) and 18 (in 2 weeks) - think the 18 year old can cope with the 10 yr old and 16 yr old is quite able to be alone (she is most days while we are all at work/school) 2. They insist that he has youngest 2 to stay more often - a win win situation for me and youngest. 10 yr old would love to split his week between me and his Dad as he is devoted to both of us. I get a bit of respite in weeks when 16 yr olds rages have been almost too much to cope with!!! Gail Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nic m Report post Posted November 30, 2007 No Lya, i just love getting dressed properly. Glasgow are putting on some things for St Andrews Day today but i just love any excuse to go all out with the hair, make-up and dress. My wardrobe is often raided by my sisters and friends because i have a lovely collection of beautiful dresses and they know they will always find something for a special night out. Weather is very wet at the moment so i will be going to a pub indoors instead of George Sq. Nic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nic m Report post Posted December 1, 2007 Clare, i stayed out till 2:30 am!!!!!!!! We had a great time first we went round to our friend who is due her 3rd baby soon, so not up to going out, had a great wee gab .her hubby laughed so much at me and mary. He said he felt sorry for any bloke attempting to chat to us! (this was said in jest) We then went to a pub, then on to a club! woohoo still had time for a chippy on the way home. Now i am off to get ready for the next instalment of my busy social life. (for about two months of the year so much goes on then the rest is very quiet) I am off to my sister's friend's 40th birthday party so it is a new dress tonight along with the fake tan painted nails and high heels! I love it but i tell you the weather is putting me off but the chance to twirl in my party dress, well that feeling just never goes! Hope you are all having a great Saturday night.

Clare63 Report post Posted December 1, 2007 Nic, Glad to hear you had a good time, off out again tonight...... tutt tutt ( I am only jealous ), you're having a bit of a social whirl at the moment and that's just as it should be, you work hard all week, so its great to get the opportunity to let your hair down and party. I could do with going to a "do" where I could dress up, I am out next Friday but its more of a jeans thing, maybe I could pop on a sparkly top ! Hope you have a good time tonight , look forwarding to heraing all about it tomorrow. Clare x x x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kirstie Report post Posted December 2, 2007 Hi Nic, Sorry to hear your Irish bloke wasn't more forthcoming! I love to get all dolled up for a night out, haven't done it in ages. I haven't had many nights out in Glasgow as it's difficult to get back through to Edinburgh, the trains only run til a certain time. I must do it sometime though and book a travelodge or something!! I feel a night out coming on!! Hope your social life continues, it does make all the difference to get some time out! Kirstie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nic m Report post Posted December 2, 2007 Well everyone last night was great! It's nice to go out with people you know and have a boogie. My gorgeous new dress finally got an outing, i had a ball and again did not get home 'til the wee small hours. Soxy boy (dog) was crossing his legs by the time i got home so i gave him an extra long walk today to make up for it! Pearl, after many disasters with fake tan i'm a bit of a dab hand with it now, it still does not go well with my nice white bedding though! Clare sparkly top is a good idea! Kirstie Edinburgh probably is just as good for a night out, when me and my friends go through to the theatre it looks pretty good. Mumble, i am suffering now for the late nights Shopping on a Sunday afternoon, cleaning out the rabbits! Ironing etc not fun when you have a bit of a hangover, more to do with lack of sleep than overindulgence though! Hope you all had a nice weekend. I am going to settle down tonight to watch Cranford, i'm loving it! perfect Sunday night t.v. Nic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clare63 Report post Posted December 2, 2007 Thanks Nic for the up date, I so love hearing your adventures. When's you next outing then ???? Enjoy putting for feet up tonight, sounds like one girlie could do with a night in Clare x x x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nic m Report post Posted December 3, 2007 Clare, i should have been going to hear my niece singing tonight but it was a very naughty aunty who cried off tonight! Next weekend is a candle party! (very overpriced candles at a friends house, if enough people buy the host/ess get enough sales they get percentage to spend on the product) It is another volunteer at my dd's swimming club who is having this on Friday so i shall look forward to sitting down with everyone and catching up over a wee glass of wine. And heaven help Glasgow city centre on Sunday night, it is my Christmas night out! I have just opened a shop a few months ago and a lot of the traders go out for a proper night out. This will be strange as i know a few of the people well, but have never been out socially with them and the rest i say hello to but not much else. Any excuse though to dress up and it will be glam, glam glam, there are hairdressers, beauticians, boutique owners travel agents and me can you imagine the fumes of perfume, body lotion and hairspray!

Clare63 Report post Posted December 3, 2007 Stop it Stop it Stop it.......... I am sooooo jealous, I wanna get glammed up No not really, well yes I do wanna get glammed up, but don't stop telling me all your adventures. What sort of shop have you got ? at first I read it that you "opened" a shop, ie cut the ribbon and declared the shop open like a celeb Clare x x x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nic m Report post Posted December 3, 2007 Clare, i love telling you all this, it makes my life seem far more glam than it really is! It is a baby shop, although i call it a boutique! sounds posh and people seem to prefer to shop in a boutique! I did have an opening party with champers and snacks which was a good laugh, heading off to the local deli/cafe for more drinks and food when it got too late to stay in the shop. Make sure you put on a wee bit of sparkle for friday. Nic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clare63 Report post Posted December 3, 2007 Nic, Every time I see that advert on the telly, hope you know the one, its for a H/St Chemist "Here comes the girls....." I think of you all glammed up ! Got some really lovely black knee length boots with a high heel and a silver buckle on the side, so might wear those as for the rest of my outfit, have not quite decided yet !!!! Baby boutique sounds lovely.... boutique rather than shop, well I would expect nothing less from you, are you "Posh" of the north Clare x x x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nic m Report post Posted December 4, 2007 Nope, common as muck. East end born and bred. Shop is out of necessity, my stress levels were rising in my last job so something had to give. Did some research on what was needed in local area and heh presto (well two years later) the shop was born. Knee high boots sound good, i think you just might be getting ready to sparkle. Nic.
