I just wanted to quickly post to wish you all a merry christmas 2009, may it be full of fun, frivolity and fat stuffed turkey. Unless you’re a vegetarian of course. I hope Santa brings you all what you asked for. On that note, I’ll end with… Twas the blog post before christmas, And throughout… read full entry »
I’ve had the majority of my antenatal care through the local midwife-led unit. It’s a very relaxed atmosphere, a great team of midwives who’re all there for you and make you feel like you’re the only woman in the world currently having a baby. Clearly that’s not the case, but it’s nice to be made… read full entry »
Er, not really, it’s only me. Hi. Jem. You may vaguely remember me… I have a lot I could waffle on about. I won’t, though, because if I start now I’ll go on and on and before you know it, it’ll be November and I’ll be going into labour (although I doubt that’d stop me… read full entry »
An appropriate title in more than one way… Firstly, we had confirmation this week that our applications for a different local property had gone through. We get the keys Friday 9th, and I’m hoping to be fully moved over that weekend. We’ll then have until November to get the flat shiny ‘n new, but given… read full entry »
I am trying to clear some space pre-move/pre-baby, as well as making a bit of extra money to put aside for emergencies and so was hoping to sell a few books on Amazon. Unfortunately they require you to have a UK credit card, which I don’t have, and as I’m ebay-aphobic I don’t want to… read full entry »
I bet you all wish you were leading a life as exciting as mine… tidying, vomiting and coping with damp. Seriously though, as if it wasn’t the weirdest phase of my life ever these past few months (if you’ve never been pregnant, wait until you have a sprog growing inside you and then try and… read full entry »
Pretty much every Friday, Karl’s mum pops in to see us on her way back from work. Because Karl and I both work all week, we tend to ‘save up’ housework for the weekend. This means that when she gets here, it’s normally an absolute tip… unwashed cups and plates stacked on the side, cat… read full entry »
I am 24 weeks tomorrow. That means that sproglet (aka lentil) is now legally and medically “viable”. Although, I do hope s/he hangs on for another few months at the very least. (Are you listening down there?) Probably should start thinking about buying some baby stuff soon, I guess. Bah, I don’t do this planning… read full entry »
Didn’t manage to spend any of my week off clearing my inbox. Oops. Did however manage to see my niece and nephew, as well as tidying up around the flat. BellaBook4 and BellaBlocks (1) very nearly ready for release. Now that my Internet connection has stopped dicking about I may be able to get everything… read full entry »
Have this week off — my first since Christmas — and guess what I did? Nothing. Nothing at all. I played a couple hours of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, and read Equal Rites (Pratchett) again but otherwise did nothing to tackle my backlog of e-mail, the many items on my todo list or the piles of… read full entry »
