The Weekend!

I had a great weekend. 
It as fantastic to see my sister again!!!  We spent the whole day Saturday together which was great!  I then “let” her spend Saturday evening with our brother, seeing as he is off on Honeymoon tomorrow so she will not really get to see much of him.  Mr OL and I [...]

Spoke to soon???

Trust me to jinx myself by saying that I am having an easy pregnancy and enjoying it!!! 
The past few days have not been fun but at least nothing serious, just rather unpleasant. 
I woke up on Saturday morning at 3am with a pounding headache.  I was worried that perhaps I was just a bit dehydrated so [...]

4 DAYS!!

Till my sister gets here!! Can’t wait to see her.
 
I have however told her if she laughs at my tummy she can get straight back on that plane……..

You can’t choose your family – pity!

I am very lucky – most of my direct family is great.  We get on very well and are pretty close.  
However, my parents moved here from Scotland just before I was born and besides my Granny (my mom’s mom) we have not seen much of the overseas relatives.  In fact I have only really met [...]

Papa don’t preach!

I went to another dress up party this weekend!! This time it was an 80’s theme but I did not take any photos. 
I went all Cindy Lauper’ish – looking more 80’s than I did in the 80’s when pretty much all I wore was jeans and a t-shirt (something have not changed that much). 
When we [...]

I’ve got worms!

And not the kind I like – worms have attacked my veggie garden.  The annoying thing is that I can’t actually find them so don’t know what exactly has eaten all my lettuce and peas.  All I know is that they are quite ferocious little critters!  Hmph, I was really looking forward to fresh peas [...]

When did this happen?

This weekend flew by!!! 
It might be because now that I am not getting up with the sparrows at about 4 I actually have less weekend hours, who knows. 
But all in all it was pretty good.  On Friday night I just relaxed and watched TV.  Saturday I worked in the garden a bit then snoozed – [...]

Please don’t tell…..

Please, please, please don’t tell Mr OL about this post!!!! 
I forgot about my scan this morning…….  Yip, after giving him so much grief about forgetting the 20 week scan a few weeks ago I did the same thing today.  I am going to blame porridge brain or hormones or something if he finds out, but [...]

Neighbourhood Watch

This morning our neighbour’s car was parked in my work parking lot.  The mother-in-law who lives with them was sitting in the car so I went over to say hello.  15 Minutes later (late for work) I was freaked out!!!  That woman knows everything about us. 
A few things that came up in the conversation. 

Our maid was [...]

In just over 5 Weeks!

In just over 5 weeks my sister comes home – only for a week, but at least it is something. That also means that… 
In just over 5 weeks my brother is getting married.  The 2nd one of us siblings to take the leap! Yikes….  That also means that …
In just 5 weeks I need to have [...]
