Finishing work at 37 weeks and counting down the minutes.... have no fears really about being bored! On my list is:
- getting excessive amounts of (broken by needing a wee of course!) sleep
- cooking nice meals that I never have time for (also from my Jamie Oliver cookbook!)
- have a lovely clean house (rather than one that gets a sparkle at the weekend and quickly falls into disrepair until the next!)
- take cats to the vet
- get car serviced and MOTd
- possibly buying an older version of Photoshop Elements and learning some superior photo editing skills
- sorting out all the photos on the computer - bcking them all up and actually getting some developed to put in frames around the house (we have none, not even of our wedding
)
- Continuing that theme, have loads of pictures/paintings etc we've never got round to hanging - may get my retired dad around and direct him about with his hammer!
- buying some cheesy boxsets like Glee and indulgently spending hours watching episodes back to back and eating whatever I want (for the last time for a long time!)
- if I get round to it would really like before LO is born to write up a load of my thoughts/ideas on the sort of parent i'd like to be on all sorts of silly topics (teenage drinking / boyfriends etc etc) before I lose all perspective and decide I can never let them out of my sight
- make a big early dent in my xmas shopping (even if mostly via the sofa/online)
- just curl up and read a load of easy-reading girly books as haven't had the chance in ages
Starting to think I'm going to need to start my maternity leave before 37 weeks. Knowing my luck baby will arrive at 37+1 and that will be that!
