I don't like you at all, you smell.
Ok. In my alternate reality where I have a day off, I'm going to clean the house, practise my flute, do some knitting and sewing and SLEEP. Hmm almost as good as being able to do that!
Bitca.
Have just finished making batches of food for torby - fusilli with beef, chicken, eggplant, mushroom, capsicum, asstd herbs and spices in a tomatoey sauce and salmon with cous-cous, lightly steamed and mashed pumpkin, carrot and sweet potato with a side order of green vegetables. sounds better than 'stuff what was in the fridge'.
have also had a nap, checked work emails and done some work. sitting here rewarding myself by making myself sick on rockmelon.
Sweety, you DO know that today is Tuesday, don't you?
I've cleaned out half of the kitchen cupboards, and spray painted their insides. So far. There needs to be some time spent in the sewing room too. And plans for dinner - I should cook G a banquet. Just for fun.
should I not do work on tuesday??
come 'round here and have some wine, I mean coffee.
It's so very beverage o'clock.
smell smell you all SMELL.
that's not very nice young lady, just because you're trapped at work on this slightly overcast day while the rest of us are doing exciting things like cleaning doesn't mean you have to be nasty about it : )
3 and a half days and I'll be unemployed!!!
I shall have days of slugging about without a baby...or at least not one on the outside.
I'd like to think I'll be productive and clean the house to within an inch of its life and create a lovely garden, but the parasite... I mean proto-baby, P2, will have other ideas about my energy levels.
you forget.. I'm not at all nice ;)
Don't count your days off yet Mouse. Baby might decide to surprise you and come early. I recommend sleeping as much as possible. Just because you can.
sleep is a very fine thing.
Sleep is good. Bizarrely, I've recently lost the knack for it. It must be something to do with the combination of bladder, hips and cats all complaining at me to get up and see to their needs.
I realise that my sans-baby slugging time might be cut short at any moment... but that's not necessarily a bad thing either, I think. Any time now is good with me.
Last day of work today!!!
the thing with sleep at that point is that you have to wake up every time you want to move a centimetre... that's the bit I hated the most.
that bit really did suck. That and I would get shooting pains in my legs and hips if I lay on one side for longer than ooh 3 seconds, so I was constantly rolling. Euch!!
It really does seem unnescassary and cruel that in those last few months when you should be resting and getting as much sleep as possible, your body conspires against you.
