Like a bad penny, I go away, but always seem to get back sooner or later...
Well, had a bit of a break from the net, as some people may have noticed..
Basically we lost our Internet connection for a while, and at the time were not in any particular rush to get a new one set up.
(long story about BT messing things up a bit)
Anyway, we now have a shiny new wireless hub, and a 8mb connection.
Sooo much better than that crappy 2mb connection we used to have!
Work is going ok, busy off and on, frustrating at times, with all the procedure changes they are making, it seems we have to fill in paperwork for everything we do these days..
They keep giving me more responsibilities, so that is a good sign. I get on well with the managers, I work hard and am always willing to help out, so i guess they do notice ;)
We had a scan a few weeks ago, and will have another in a few weeks. We have one scan pic, but a bit small to really see anything. I did hear the heartbeat which was an odd thing for me, but a nice experience.
einochi is still feeling the effects of morning sickness (And afternoon, evening, night etc). Hopefully she will start feeling better soon, so far it's not been much fun for her, but it will all be worth it in the end :)
Still crazy in love :)
Kids are great as always, and a handful at the same time.
Car died recently. It had an MOT to go through (for the non uk people out there, every year here you have to have your car tested if it is over 3 years old. Safety checks, emissions etc.)
Basically the car failed the test. Well I say failed, but after seeing 2 pages listing the problems, I kinda knew it was a lost cause. As the garage said 'uneconomical to repair'.
So we had to get a newer car.
We now have a rather wonderful people carrier, which is great for long journeys. It has 7 seats, all of which can be taken out or moved for storage. Very comfortable and good to drive. Lots more features than the last car, electric windows, 2 sunroofs, air con, central remote locking etc..
cant fault it really, it is just the car we needed :)
Our eldest recently entered a writing competition and had a poem published!!!!
As you can imagine we are very proud of her and naturally got a copy of the book for every family member we could :)
On another note, right after finding out we are expecting, I heard that my brother is also expecting a baby, and typically they are a few weeks ahead of us, odd coincidence really that both of us end up having children at the same time!
Started to finally learn Japanese, and am really enjoying it. We have a cd set so have copied a few over to my mp3 player to listen to in the car when i drive to and from work :)
