Week 2 of school, so far so good. Meggie started her full days yesterday and loved it. She is so adaptable and eager. Hope the wheels don’t fall off at the end of the week!

I’ve registered for the Shri Chimnoy 4km race on 10th March and in training now. I’m trying not to eat wheat and am feeling so much better without the bread, pasta and cakes that used to make up most of my diet! I’m also off the grog as I believe that was not doing me any good – my hands would swell and get really itchy after a glass of wine. Not a good look!

Let me tell you about Amy. Nearly 17 months now and what an imp! She loves to steal. If there is a drawer at her height (my desk, bathroom and kitchen drawers) she opens them up, takes stuff out then runs away. If you catch her in the act, she runs faster. I’ve had to empty out all the drawers, especially the bathroom ones. All my makeup, creams and brushes were going missing. justin’s shave sticks and aftershaves end up all over the house. She is onto copying too. Last night I was leaning against the bench talking to Jusitn and she came up and leaned up next to me, just like I was doing. She mimics lots of sounds and can say ‘Thankyou” and ‘apple’. She is really just a beautiful poppett.

I had a job interview yesterday for some more work, but I’m not sure if anything will come of it. It didn’t sound too promising, but he was able to offer me a desk job! I said “Thanks but no thanks” and this is mainly because having a job requires a huge logistics program and thus the actual job has to be what I actually want to do. I’m not that desperate!

I’m going to be an aunty again! Justin’s sister is due in August and we thought she would never have another child so it is all very exciting for us.

Sorry not much else to report. I’ll do better next time!!

Edited to add: Just picked the girls up from school and Holly told me that her class had voted her SRC rep. I’m so very proud!!! SRC = Student Representative Council
