Frustrations

I blogged at least twice more last week but neither post seems to have appeared. How annoying!

What wonderful weather at teh weekend. I did a 5 mile walk around Virginia Water lake for those of you that know it with my friend Debbie. I had stayed over with her on Friday night and we had had a lovely time just the two of us. It is necessary to spend a bit more than just an evening with close friends every now and then.

We also went to an NCT sale. For the unitiated (which I was)- it was a cross between a next sale (you had to get there v early to get a chance of any of the real bargains- i thought turning up at the time the sale started was early but clearly not!) and a jumble sale. Some of the stuff was fantastic quality but some was total rubbish. I might go to another- we'll see- but you clearly need a strategy to ensure you get what you are looking for! a general 'let's see what there is' just is not good enough!

Also had church, a swim, a clean of the house, our house group, helped simon with a job application form and had time to go to the pub a couple of times! it made the weekend seem really long!

I am in maternity clothes for the first time today. My trousers keep on falling down though (and i am told this wont get better as my bump gets bigger which is what i was hoping for!). I didnt put a mat top on though and I really should have- this is now too short!

Got fitted up for mat bras at M&S on friday. Far too depressing for words! And that isnt going to get any better either!

People are now staring at me. They really just stare. It is quite unbelievable. Debbie said she had spotted people staring too! I'm not that interestign or even that big at the moment! Gets worse I think! (Do I mind- I think i did at first but it is quite nice really!)

And london underground is producing these badges saying 'baby on board' for pregnant women to wear so people dont feel embarrassed asking if you would like a seat- that is she/ isnt she pregnant thing will be taken away! i have applied for one! i must just add though that i wotn have one of those on my car under any circumstances- this is just a ploy to get a seat when travelling to / from work!

Had another successful auction on ebay at the weekend. this is going much bettter now. i think i have worked out how to do it!
