Argh,
I haven't updated in a wee while sorry! Very busy. Where shall I start?
I went to my cousin's 21st Birthday party last Friday - I had a really good night; not much drinking for me, but good to catch up with the relatives. The Buffet was amazing. Perhaps the best Buffet ever. Yum Yum.
I have spent the rest of the week playing catch up in the house. I have seriously lacked any motivation this week - I am a bit down about Frenchie leaving so I think that's a part of it. Also, the old period came on Sunday so it always takes me a day or two to get back to normal. To top it off, I have three woman I have supposed to have phoned for the breastfeeding thing weeks ago, and now I am getting totally worked up about it. I keep reminding myself that it is peer support, and extra support, but I'm feeling guilty in case the woman have had a problem. Argh! I have kept myself wake in bed every night for the past week or so, worrying about it. I should really do it now, but instead I am on here! I am silly moo!!!!!!! I have promised myself that I will do it tomorrow, but then again, I have been doing that for weeks now!! Every time the day comes I just say, tomorrow, or it isn't convenient. What to do? Ok, will phone tomorrow, and like I say, it's just an extra ear for the women.
The dentist just phoned, to say that it was time for our 6 month check. They normally send out a letter; quite impressed as I have made the appointment for Phoenix and I for 11th May.
On the decluttering front; I did the cupboard in the spare room - I have 4 bin bags for the charity shop, and organised it a bit better. I managed to declutter underneath our bed, and filled 1 bin bag of rubbish! Just need to the drawers and wardrobe now, and our room should be pretty organised. Keith needs to get rid of some clothes. He has more than me, and he hardly wears most of them. Once I have finished our room, it'll be onto Phoenix's room of toys! I'm thinking I will box some of them and put them up the loft, or just give them away. The thing is, once you start taking them out to put in the bin, even though he hasn't played with them in ages, he starts playing with it again! Nightmare.
To top it all off, I am desperate to be pregnant again! Only on cycle day 4; last month I ovulated on day 11; so it would mean I ovulate next Wednesday.. Just did a ovulation predictor. If I did get pregnant this month the baby would be due Jan 18th. I really don't want a baby born in January, it's the worst month of the year, for me anyways. To top it off, it's Nicola's birthday on Jan 14th and my mum's would've been Jan 5th. Ideally I want to get pregnant in May, as if I get pregnant in June baby would be due March 10th; which is too close to both Leanne's and Craig's birthdays and my mum's anniversary. Both images are from Ivillage a website I really love, and log onto to everyday.
Also, found something else on ivillage. It's called a Chinese gender predictor. It says if I got pregnant this month it would be a girl; where as next month is a boy. I would rather have a boy again. The next third child (Touch wood!!) I would like a girl. But ultimately, of course, it wouldn't matter just wistful dreams, a girl has to use measures to keep within the agreed May 1st promise!
We're having 'Traffic Light Risotto' for dinner tonight. Started off as butternut squash risotto but I added spinach and red pepper; I'll add recipe after this, but may have to be later as the boy is due to wake from nap.
Signing off,
Natalie
