Shock Horror…

The painters turned up last night at 5.30pm and actually finished the job. Mind you I had to say a few times “What about here…. and here…..”, but it is all done now and looks great. Because of the smell of the paint the girls had to camp out with Justin in the upstairs spare room and I had Jessie in bed with me. Far out, it was like sleeping with a log!

I had to giggle yesterday when I overheard Holly saying the “Hail Mary” which she learnt at school. Her version went like this…

Holly Mary, Mother of God, pray for us and gypsies. Amen.
Holly Mary, Mother of God, we have the same name so we can be friends.

Justin and I are off to a Masquerade 21st Birthday Party on the weekend. Can’t remember the last 21st I went too. They all seem a lifetime ago. This one is for my cousin, so lots of family will be there and then on Sunday we’ll have some of them back here for a lunch so my sister can see the house at last. I wish the new blinds were up, but fingers crossed that will happen next week.

Only 8 weeks till baby due. I’m having those Braxton Hicks fakies right underneath my belly. It goes so hard and tight. I’m starting to prepare myself mentally for the labour cause I really don’t want to do it! It actually freaks me out if I think about it too much. At least the sciatica has stopped. I think the baby has moved into a new position taking some pressure off that nerve.

Kids are fighting (what is new!!!) better intervene 🙂 Happy Wednesday.
