Rach had a go, so did Moi, so I guess I should ‘fess up to the things that make me qualify as Weird!

1. I can’t touch cotton wool balls – the sensation of them makes my spine tingle, similar to that of nails being run down a blackboard. Ok that one was probably too weird to start off with. Are you worried!!!

2. Watching people brush their teeth makes me want to vomit – it seriously does. I don’t know why, but if I have to witness it, I have to cover my mouth and breathe deeply to avoid being sick. Ask Justin – he loves to tease me about it.

3. I’m a dishwasher stacker neat freak. If it doesn’t stack nicely, I’ll do it all over again. In fact, I’d rather just do it all myself, cause when Justin does it, it is all WRONG.

4. I have to use my left ear when on the phone. Even though my hearing is exactly the same in both ears, I can’t hear with the right on the phone. Well I can, but it doesn’t sound as good. I’m sure there is a thesis topic in that somewhere.

5. I have to have the toilet roll rolling from the top too. Rach is right – it just doesn’t work well if it rolls from underneath. Why don’t people get that?? LOL 🙂

So that is me and my “weirdness”. Have I totally freaked you out?

I’m micro-analysing every twinge and flutter – you would think by now that I would have figured out that when it really happens I’ll really know about it! I’m just impatient.

Saw the midwife on Tuesday who said that my pains are just normal, and that it is an indication that things are moving along. She felt the baby, and it’s back was a little too posterior for her liking, so she suggested that I get on all fours, shake my Touche and try to get the baby to roll over a bit to make it more central. Well, I have been doing that and what a difference. No pain any more. The little bugger must have been sitting right on a nerve or something, causing me all that pain. I now feel a million dollars and not quite so desperate to have it out.

We have Holly’s first school Concert tonight. She is excited about being at school when it is night time, but also that we’ll be there watching her. Grandparents x 4 will be there and Meg and Jess are ready to do the actions along with the Kindergarten kids. We are totally overdone hearing the tune “Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot bikini“, but Meg adores it. When can she go to preschool – she’ll be in her element!

My sister Lisa is off to Melbourne for the weekend to see Jamie Oliver live on Stage. My dream!! Oh well, maybe next time for me. She is 32 weeks pregnant, so borrowed some of my glamourous maternity clothes, in order to look fab in case she gets chosen to go up on stage with him. My dream!!

Rach has found a great website for a girl in the US that makes the most delectible bags. Check out the site if you want to have a peek. I’m ordering one as a nappy bag.

Ok well that is it for now. Thanks to everyone who keeps checking in here to see how I’m doing, and for all the phone calls to monitor my sanity levels. It means a lot to me. Hopefully soon I’ll have some news. 🙂
