I keep on catching glimpses of myself in eg shop windows and it takes me by surprise every time! No wonder people have been so kind to me today in terms of helping me with my shopping etc. People are now being v v friendly to me! Our next door neighbours even gave us some fresh fruit from their garden! Unfortunately now the ice has been broken they keep on stopping to chat for ages- and i dont like to stand up for too long at a time !
Took 2 hours nearly on the phone today to do a re-mortgage application. Would have been far easier and quicker for me just to fill out a form but this is apparently the way it is done these days. At least it is done before baby arrives i guess! (although one more re-mortgage and a tax return still to go!)...
Freezer is gradually getting filled- decided on a realistic strategy of just making extra of whatever i/we are eating on a particular day and freezing that. it is working gradually i think!
carpet man came round today to measure up so we will (i hope) have a new carpet for stairs and landing fitted before baby- gripper rods down at the moment which i dont fancy much when bringing a baby up and down the stairs!
and getting through all the baby washing and catching up on our ironing. so quite pleased with progress. though i guess not doing so well on having feet up with a book which i keep being told i'll regret if i dont get round to....
