Essie, they are being so mean! But as you say, good confirmation of the move. I love it when the universe gives clear messages like that

April, sorry I wasn't around earlier. The rash could be viral but it looks more allergic to me. Hope you feel better soon

Addie, you're waaaaaaay more organised than me. I was thinking I should start washing the bedding and clothes this week...or next

It took me a while but I realised that it's a leap year. I SO don't want Tori to arrive on the 29th

I'm hosting the provincial Birth Associates meeting tomorrow morning and I'm talking at it Then patients all afternoon and then hopefully after 3:30 getting the things I don't have on my home birth requirements list

Our volunteer for the market fundraiser phoned me. She is in her late 60's or early 70's and she wanted to borrow R200 ($20) from the charity because she has no money. I felt awful that she had to ask. It must have been so embarrassing. I told her we have to pay the cattery maid R500 and we have an R8000 electricity bill which we have to pay off before we get cut off. But that she can borrow it if we have after the wages. Such a shitty situation that someone of that age who works is so short of money

Poor soul....that must have been really uncomfortable for her. At least she was asking someone with compassion who didn't make her feel even worse.

April, sorry you've got so much sickness going around!!

Happily chatting away to Trin about wellies and Felicity Kendal this morning and we get a power cut- turns out our whole electrical system just burnt out and died. It's just been fixed and cost an absolutely frighteningly enormous sum that rather puts pay to all our little pleasures for this year

Hope you're all well Going to go and make the house spotless and get the dinner in the oven since I'm going to have one very pissed off dh this evening!

xxxxx Laters lovelies xxxxx

I know I was joking on BBM, but honestly that does sound like a complete nightmare. Especially being so out of the blue like that. A real poofuck situation. I've a feeling the same thing is going to happen to us only with our central heating. It's on its last legs so we'll need £4000 to replace the boiler. It's just a matter of when Please not before I return to work

Yes it's a shocker when it's out the blue and you just have to get your cheque book out for monster money Ouch it hurt, though we can pay in 2 goes which softens it a little bit. And we had no heating all day, or cooking facilities so huddled round the fire and had salad for lunch Holly loved it and thought the day was most jolly- we were like girl guides boiling my water for tea on the embers And dh is quite cheery about it, glad it at least happened when I was at home to sort it out, and is phoning one of our running club friends who's a lawyer to ask some questions about revising his ridiculous maintenance for the boys, so some good may come of the broken electrics!!

I hope you get some heartburn now so you can try them out, I'm curious to know if they work

Only joking There's an English translation for the blurb, as you can see they're preggo safe and I was given that packet at the hospital the other day when I had my scan and monitoring for my backache so they're nice and fresh

Lyra has clearly been considering career options this week. She tried photography, beauty therapy and is now exploring her potential as a chef, looking through Nigel Slaters cookbook.

I think they're the leggings that match the woodland dress but I may be mistaken!! They've cropped up before on Lyra!!

 

[kit_cat]

i must remember to save in a separate account when i get a mortgage!

Defo a good idea!! I do this usually but at the moment that account has been gobbled up

They are they're only 3-6 size but are still fitting okay. I don't want her to grow out of them.
