Hmmm, I'm having ambivalence, too! I've been putting my two cents worth in here and there, but I feel that if I start to post in here it will be a big whine, and I'm not in the mood to do that. Things are better, though, I just feel it wouldn't take much to descend to whininess! Been lurking in here, though
I hope the time away from the computer has helped, Bath I have missed you and was going to call you (famous last words) and it never happened
Mel - I DID get to the pool! I even got DP to come with us, so we went at about 5.40 - good time to bypass the 'normal' families who have dinner at about 6. DP didn't get too antsy about me teaching him stuff from classes and was happy to practice it there, too. We stayed for ages and got home with not enough time to get dinner ready before I had to take off for a committee meeting and a shoe party (had to drop in on that afterwards). No matter, I got to eat when I got home. Weekend school was really, really good. Graeme, our lecturer, was really engaging and I'm looking forward to more interactions with him. I used the sleep labs there at Caulfield but only realised as I was being let in by security that, along with everywhere else in that building, it's under constant video surveillance...hmm...
Actually, I have felt strange since Sunday, and today it's become apparent - I have a throaty sort of thing that is making me feel very drained. Oscar wouldn't stay in bed for me! I'm going to miss Booby Club, too.
DP has the car cos I told him this morning that I'm not well enough to head out further than the walk to the shops. But he didn't leave the buggy, so I may have to get this kid up on my back. I need my favourite cheesy bread, I don't care that dairy is contraindicated for throaty coldy things!
Oscar is being clingy today - might have a shower with him and then let him loose in the backyard (shower is for my benefit but it gives him something to do in that time!).
Oh, also, my sister and niece are coming over for the school holidays!
Julie - great to read from you again!!
Better go, the kid is going nuts...
Rory - glad to hear my child is not the only whingy one lately (you too Maya!!!). I don't know whether its teething or she is just having a crappy week. Its good that he is still sleeping. Marley's sleep pattern hasn't been affected, neither has her appetite - she is just in a bad mood. I am a bit like Flynn, hate sitting in the car, would rather be out stretching my legs. I'm sure you'll manage to get your work done and redeem yourself.
Maya - glad you got to the pool, I am suprised they are open that late. Would have been very quiet and DP sounds like he doing well coming with you. Wonder if the sleep labs are monitored on weekends? Knowing security, they probably don't pay much attention to them anyway lol! Hope you aren't getting a cold, just as the good weather is starting. How great is it today - I love the sunshine!!
Bath - don't stay away for too long! Its not the same without you in here.
Well Marley hasn't been too bad today, she has her moments. Still doesn't like being left alone anywhere, even if Chelsea is with her. She use to be so happy to play on her own with anything she could find, know she would rather just find me instead! Went out in the backgarden this morning to do some weeding and DH did the weed and feed of the lawn yesterday. We need to get some mulch in the next couple of weeks but having such a big backyard it gets expensive. It was lovely being out in the sunshine, spring is really here!! YEAH
