Bimbos unite!

[Susanne]

We were asked to minimize personal chatter in the discussion threads.....

That's why they are so quiet. But I love how we all care about Winnie in the Warm & Cozy thread!!

[LMD84]

yes it was her appointment today so i hope it went ok for her. *i wish there was a 'fingers crossed smiley!*

the colour collection threads ahve been so quiet recently... maybe it's because people just don't have as much cash to spend (i'm not buying as much this yr) or maybe it's because so many of our big personality members seem to have faded away? makes me sad. i'll be chatting away though when i actually get my hands on the holiday stuff! darn the uk and it's late releases!

im finding that the collections just arent grabbing me,and ive been avoiding mac like nothing!

good luck with you car stuff allison

I am enjoying a glass of wine right now before I will go to bed.
But before I will read a few more pages of Henning Mankell's "The return of the dancing master"

[pdtb050606]

I love Sunswept
So I hope that everyone has had a good day so far!
I had a great day, my Mom and I went to lunch, did a little shopping and I got my H1N1 shot..made me a little nervous but I figured the benefits out-weight the risk-I sure do hope so

[LMD84]

back at work today and i have a video conference thing at 9.30 - i hate those! i'm not bothered about phone conference calls but when people can see me i get all flustered!

Good morning everyone!

The transdesign order arrived yesterday.. but because I wasn't home I picked it up at the post office today. The mail was unusual early yesterday and I thought it would be an other package but when I picked it up I saw that it was from transdesign.

Wow.. that was quick. They shipped it on the 29th and today I could unwrapp the gorgeous nailpolishes.

Susanne yours should arrive tomorrow. I directly went back to the post office.

Emerald Sparkle is beyond gorgeous.. though I am wondering if it is the original or the other one. I just purchased it as a single and not with this years holidays set which includes the original formula.

The three Essie nailpolishes I've purchased are Mint Candy Apple , Mink Muffs and Angora Cardi. My fifth bottle in this haul was Essie's Matte About You topcoat and I already applied it on one nail. The finish looks great and it dries quickly.

[Miss QQ]

^^ Enjoy your nail polishes!

Hi everyone! It's mid-week and a busy week for me at work. I'm looking forward to the weekend.

I miss the fun at the old colour collection threads. Frankly, I was unaware that we were informed to minimise chatter until someone (I forgot who) mentioned it in one of the threads. Was there an annoucement? Maybe I missed.

Hello my lovely Bimbos Chatter!

@ Jeanette + Susanne: Enjoy your Nailpolish Hauls. I can't wait to see your Swatches

I had a really rough Day at work today. I'm glad I'm back at Home now!
The Swineflu arrived at my Kindergarden. We have one ill child, I hope it we won't get more! And I'm still unsure about the Injection.
Susanne + Jeanette did you get an Injection?!

Hope everyone is having a great Day/Evening, wherever you are

No not yet. I am still unsure about it. One reason is that then I to visit the doctor in the flu season to get my shot. Plus the doc of my mum today didn't recommended it yet to her.
Hasn't our health minister recommended to rather get the regular annual flu shot because the regular flu season is more dangerous now?
I am so unsure about the swine flu shot.

Same here! My Doctor & Pharmacist didn't recommended it to me. On the one hand I don't want to get the Injection, but on the other hand I do get in contact with the Swine Flu because of my work

Really?! I didn't hear anything about that! Is it really better to get the regular flu shot?! I've got the regular flu injection one time and I didn't liked it. After that I was sick for 2 weeks!

Sally you're in the medicine. What do you think about the injection?!

[Face2Mac]

In America, there are two injections for swine flu. One that has mercury in it, and one that does not for pregnant women. In the the past two weeks, 200 people have reported complications but 1,000 have died from the actual flu.

So I am definitely getting the shot, better safe and minor complication than the full-out flu. But I am scared of the injection but more scared of flu.

Also, there is a shortage of shots. So the only people who are getting the shot are small children and pregnant women.

[LMD84]

Yagmur i do hope you'll be ok try not to worry about it or you'll make yourself ill that way!

and i never knew that there were 2 types of emerald sparkle!! i bought it in my last haul (a single bottle rather than in the set). what are the differences in formula? i hope my transdesign order arrives as quick as yours does!!

and Miss QQ i think the minimising chatter was a knock on effect form the 'talk to me thread'.

[banana1234]

i wish tish would come back, i miss her, she used to make me laugh

[pdtb050606]

The H1N1 shot I got yesterday was not preservative free..the nurse said that was not available to them yet and it was still safe for pregnant women.

[Face2Mac]

^^yeah, I heard both were safe.

it could be good if you know that you are going to be around it alot. i personally choose not to get both the H1N1 shot, or the flu injection (even though it is free for me), as i prefer not to put it into my body. just my thing. if i get it, my body will take the natural cause and fight.
but i think its a good idea for pregnant women - we had a few nasty cases in my hospital where some ladies caught it, and they had to have a c-section, even though they were 25-30 weeks along. keep safe pamela!

how is everyone! good to see everyone back! i went and checked out the holiday collection today - i only picked up devil may care (spelling) MES, the purple is gorgeous! have put superdupernatural MB and midnight madness MES on hold for me to think about. have resisted the cremesheen glasses! but its a great collection, i just wish i had the money to splash.

have also started up a happy aquarium on facebook - soooo addictive!!

[Miss QQ]

I'm wondering how strong the impact of H1N1 will be on us in tropical Asia this winter. The first round in May was shocking but relatively copeable. I work in the healthcare industry but am not located in a healthcare institution. We have been "encouraged" to take seasonal flu jabs all the time, but I'm hoping I don't have to take the H1N1 jab since it is quite limited in supply and should be reserved for people who are more in need. Anyway, we never had much casulty for the seasonal flu because we are in the tropics so I don't want to take the seasonal flu jab.

Sorry Lou, what is the 'talk to me thread'?

[Camnagem]

All the H1N1 injection talk freaks me out a bit. I'm not sure what to do about it! My doctor is pushing the decision back onto me and doesn't even have an opinion on it...what's up with that?

Speaking of healthcare stuff, are any of you in nursing by chance? I'm considering making a huge life change and going back to school to become a nurse. It's something I've always wanted to do, and my life is searching for purpose lately. I feel this overwhelming desire to do something positive/helpful for other people on a day to day basis...I need to do something!

Anyway, I have millions of questions and there's almost too much information to take in on the internet. If any of you are in the field, I'd love to talk your ear off a bit in PM's (if you don't mind of course!).

I hope everyone is doing well, all of the nail polish sounds wonderful!!

I am really not sure!! My opinion about the injection changes every day at the moment. I want to talk to my boss if we teachers have to get the injection - I am afraid of possible side effects to be honest.


Yagmur, I hope you can manage it at your kindergarden!

Long story short told:

There were members on specktra who complained about private chatter, a rude tone and product enabling in the discussion threads. It was a long and heated discussion, not everything said was nice.

I am so glad things have been calmed down right now - and some of us have decided to have the private chatter here in the bimbo thread!

[Miss QQ]

^^ Thank you. I'm glad I can chat at the bimbo thread.
