(no subject)
So for something different, 2 whole months has zipped by unnoticed as I forget on a daily basis to write some things down. My communication with the world online has been via 1 line status updates on FB... something I swore I would never even join, but now use like I used to use DD and LJ. Seems a lot of people have the same problem.
Work has been going along fine, I struggle to find enough to do a lot of the time, makes the days go by oh so slowly. I have found a person to be sort of friends with, but am not sure it is such a good idea... time will tell.
Maddy has settled down somewhat,s he is a pretty good dog now. She's still as dumb as ever, and as sweet. She still eats everything she can get her little mouth around and a few of Amelia's toys have gone "missing".
Speaking of Amelia, the little darling is growing up incredibly fast, and Ash has started talking about making her a brother or sister to play with, but no timeline has been discussed. We really are extraordinarily lucky with how good she is!! She has started sleeping in a "bed" now as opposed to a cot, although it is just her cot with the side taken down. Most nights when we check on her before going to bed ourselves we find her asleep curled up on the floor, or on a cushion we have next to the bed in case she falls out. We're not sure if she is falling out or climbing out specifically to sleep on the floor. Mum said she used to often find me on the floor though, and I'm okay!
She's worked out how to open a DVD cover, get the disc out and load it in the player. She'd have the play function down pat too if we didn't have such a crap remote that only works on a very specific angle.
Christmas was lovely, as was our pre-Christmas-Christmas in November. This year was no presents, just food, family and fun and I think we'll keep it that way for a long time to come! Amelia still gets presents, and the only drawback of the no presents rule is that she likes to hand out presents to other people so we might need to consider getting everyone chocolates or something so she can hand them out next year.
Kitty is coming over soon and we're going to take Amelia swimming, at least that's the plan. It's 25 degrees here, and a chance of thunderstorms. I should go get the washing in.
I should also be finishing off a website I but have no motivation to complete it today. It's too hot, it feels like 40, not 25. Maybe I'm not well. I slept for 11 hours last night, and am still tired. I wish Ash didn't have to work. It sucks having no time together. Bring on Jan 18th which sees us get 8 days straight together down at the Island while the house is being painted.
Oh yeah, renovations! We've redone the floors in most of the house as floating floors instead of carpet and it looks fabulous. We're still got the skirtings to finish, but we're getting there. We're supposed to have everything completed in time for painting, but it's starting to look unlikely. I'm worried. We just have no time between now and then, Ash's work is making him do Sundays, so we are not home together at all during the day ever. It's crap crap crap.
Ahhhhhhh well. I'm going to go see a washing line about some washing. Yeah.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
