girl22 - yeah, I guess if you know what you're talking about, it's not hard to guess! I'm hoping to get DS along to an arabic-speaking playgroup when he's older. I'm also wanting to learn the language, but I have to get better at French first, because although Yasser was born in Lebanon, he left when the war started and was raised speaking French and technically that's his first language, and he only re-learned arabic when he was 21 but can't read or write it! Considering he's also fluent in English and Spanish, it's no big deal... but I'd like DS to have the language skills also. inshallah...
Jess - girl22 and I just started our own little egg-mayonnaise forum. Wanna join?? Hope your cut's healing! No need to sacrifice yourself for the sake of well-filleted chicken!! lol! And yeah, the neighbours here are bogans, but it's a million times better than the apartment I was in before. We shared a dividing wall (bedroom, no less!) with the garbage chute for the entire building of 100 apartments. The noise was atrocious, and the smell was worse. Seriously unfit for habitation. We could hear the neighbours farting! Anyway... DS just lights up when DP gets home too, and the squeals of joy are so wonderful. It's great, and I make sure I meet him at the door so if he's had a hard day at work, everything just disappears when he sees that super-gorgeous smile. And I can forget about how atrocious my day has been because they're happy. It doesn't make the mountains of laundry disappear, but it makes me feel less grumpy about it!
Abb - We posted at the same time! We got new furniture on the weekend too! I'm still assembling it... started with the farex yesterday too, but Aadi's sleeping now, so I'll give it to him again later maybe. Vegies soon! Yay! Good luck for your big night on Friday - go easy on the alcohol, I reckon it'll hit us twice as hard now seeing as it's been so long between drinks, IYKWIM! Even coffee would spin me out, I reckon.
OK, I have 2 mothers groups to go to today. A new one since I moved (even tho it's only a km away!) so that will be interesting. Aadi will be a monster compared to any newborns, he looks like he's about 6-7 months old. But it's a good opportunity to meet up with some new people in my area. Hope everyone's well and having a great day.
