Oh Lisa, you can include me on your healing list! There is a similar sort of thing with the vipassana meditation that I've done - you meditate and send out energy from your heart centre.

How are your healing words going, Laura. Hey, we can move from study buddies to 'new agey buddies'...

We have had a good couple of days going for some nice walks and just hanging around home a lot. Clarrie has finally got the hang of the rolling. No waving yet! But he has been doing the pushing of the arms through the clothes (whether it is in response to my 'push it through' or not, I have no idea!) for a while now. so they are certainly all different developmentally, aren't they.

I've made up my 'crawl proofing the house' list and hope to get started on a lot of this the weekend after next. There's not as much as I thought actually. This weekend we are off to Adelaide to meet up with some friends who are coming up from the south. They have a 3 year old girl, Lily. Lily is so excited to see Clarrie again. She's wrapped up some of her old jigsaws to give to him (her idea! so gorgeous).

Lisa, I got my reply about the HECS query. I thought there was only one deferment option? That you take out the loan and pay back when you are earning enough. Or you can make the voluntary repayments if you like. ??

The person who replied was extremely helpful and also mentioned that the course I was doing will be changed in 2007 and be shorter and called something else. After contacting the uni about the course a couple of times already, I thought they might have mentioned this!!! But at least it is shorter and not longer!

Jillian, glad to hear the blocked duct has righted itself. Mine is much better too. How did the night out go.

Sal, thanks for the comments about your mum. I find all this quite fascinating. I'd love to do psychology.. maybe in my next life...hehehe

BTW, has anyone gone out with their partner and left bub alone with someone else at night?

Okay, better go. I'm bushed after making 2 curries to take this weekend. Love that curry! I think it's my favourite food.

PS Lisa, you are going to make such a great midwife.
