Hi ... Icons, Work ... & A Meme
Sunday, April 25th, 2010 09:40 pmYay - I managed to get the extra icons ... yes, I may be going to be unemployed by next week, but I can't resist an icon! So I have re-loaded some of my old ones that I had to delete, and still ahve some spaces left ... so all in all, it's great to play.
Now I start the final week of being an osteopath, as my insurance finishes on the 1st .... but can start the week (and end the weekend) in style with a MEME that I snagged from

Date: 2010-04-27 12:55 pm (UTC)We really tried, didn't we! Hard to believe it was a year ago this weekend!
Eloise Caitlin Barbara --> she was going to be Sara or Caitlin and then late in my pregnancy I was reading a Mills & Boon and in it there was a 2yo girl called Eloise. Flashed on the name. We kept Caitlin as middle name and Barbara is the name of her father's adoptive mother.
Chloe Isobel Rebecca --> I was pregnant and in France in 2006 and met a woman named Chloe and just fell in love with the name. Isobel is a name I've like for a while, the girl in Roswell was called Isabel but the way they say it sounds like Isobel. And Rebecca is my mother.
Aidan James Henri --> my ex decided that since I'd chosen the girls' names it was his turn so he came up with Aidan. Do I really need to explain the James bit? ;) Henri was my mum's father.
I promise to do my best to update more often!

Date: 2010-04-27 01:27 pm (UTC)I'm Lauriel Emmanuelle (after one of my cousins) Marie (cos my dad's family is catholic, my dad is Christian Louis Marie, strangely I'm the only one of his children who got the Marie).
Re James, I know, right! I had to fight with the father of my children to get the James. He wasn't happy where I found it. But then again he wasn't happy with me still being into BtVS because at my age, I should be over it. Or something. *rolls her eyes*

Date: 2010-04-27 04:48 pm (UTC)Yes, James is a nice name!! And Aiden has the great eyes to go with it!

Date: 2010-04-29 04:13 pm (UTC)But since you asked...
My best friend [since 1st grade] had a cousin. He visited her on a school holiday when I [and he] were 14 years old. I liked his eyes and we talked. That was the first time I met my husband. He was my 'date' for school dances [once a year]. We saw each other occasionally at family functions and began dating six years after we met. His cousin was my maid of honor and is still my best friend. And we have been married a lo-o-ng time.

Date: 2010-04-26 01:47 pm (UTC)But I am close to two of my big sisters, (Had by Mam, I dont bother with any of the kids Dad made & to be fair they dont bother with me LOL), by close I mean we speak on the phone. LOL Sue, the one I've posted about takes the kids away every year on holiday and is a great Auntie to them. Amethyst and James both have a job with her on a Saturday and The Chadders stays with her every Friday night until Saturday night and has done since he was a baby.
But no, alas, I know not what hassing a full sibling is like :) Never mind, I've got LJ and Gina's family.
