I'm just sticking my head in to say hi..

And i noticed some 'congrats sheree..." so I've gone back a page to read 'what for"... and OMG !!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck sweetie!!!!!!!! I really hope everything works out for you. It's such great news. And you deserve good things.

Now... appologies to everyone for (1) being MIA, and (2) no personals again.

I had a quick MSN chat with Sara today, and realised how much I've been missing. But I barely have time to scratch myself at the moment.

* I still only have half a kitchen. I finally have a benchtop & cabinets & a sink... but some cabinets don't have doors. And I've got no flooring, and the lighting needs doing, and splashbacks around the entire room. God knows when it will get finished.

* The settlement of the salon is meant to be on Thursday 1st November... but the sales contract is still not prepared. There were hassles getting hold of my lease (which I got one 9 years ago - and the RE was meant to issue new ones everytime I exercised an option - but they didn't! So they had to prepare 2 leases for the last 6 years - idiots!!!) Both the new owner & myself are so worried that it wont get organised in time - although we've started changing names of things like utilities etc. I just hope it doesn't get dragged out to near birth time! I feel like I've got a phone permanantly stuck to my ear - between solicitor, RE, accountant, the new owner, and all the suppliers.... I'll be so glad when it's over.
* I'm living out of boxes at home... because I just don't have time or energy to unpack everything. All my clothes are still in boxes!!
* pregnancy is going well. I'm huge. I saw the ob last week and he said "another big baby". I'm open to having a VBAC if baby decides to come earlier then the scheduled c/s date of the 26/11... but not sure if I'm keen on popping out a 9+ pounder. Sara eased my fears a little today when she told me about Colby (thanks)
* I just realised today that I'll be giving birth in 4.5 weeks.... and Yariv's mum is coming from Israel in 3.5 weeks!!!!!!! Aaahhhh.... where is the time going?
* Shaun has been going through a bit of hell lately. He's cutting two molars at the same time (first molars)... and he got gastro from the day care centre last week. In fact, most of the centre (kids & staff) got it... and they closed it down for the first time in 30 years!! He's done some wonderful projectile vomits!
* my computer is still sitting on a buffet in the living room! and I'm sitting (uncomfortably) on a dining room chair. Yariv has recently wired up the house... so I've got to move the computer, printer etc into my office.. and sit on a real chair!

... Shaun has just woken up.

hope you are all well. I'm sorry that I've not been keeping up with the news...
i'm so tired, and stressed. i just want the salon sold, the house clean & to get some sleep...
But I think I'll be flat out right up until baby is born... then I'll get 3-4 days to "relax" in hospital and then have to deal with two children (no more sleep for me!).

mwa to everyone!

I'll be back... just not for a little while. Thinking about you all.
