WARNING - Not for those of a sensitive disposition.
Kinga (BB) is one of the saddest people I have ever seen on telly and Craig is not far behind for encouraging her. It was degrading but also, on a serious note, dangerous. Performing, as she did, with an open bottle, could allow a vacuum to form which would cause the focus of her performance to be sucked down, or - supposing the bottle had broken.............
Meanwhile, back in the banal world of Midwifemuse. Wallpaper is decided upon, carpets and kitchen units have been chosen and estimates dispatched, cleaners (redistributers of soot) have finished and builders start work on Monday.
Meetings have been held with Managers and colleagues, no remedies were forthcoming but having a group moan was enjoyable. I have stuck to my guns, more or less, and will be taking my holiday whilst only going in to cover once.
At the weekend one of my ladies gave birth at home, and her Husband delivered the baby with the midwife arriving 5 minutes after the baby girl was born. Everything was fine, as is generally the case with a quick labour, and he now really has something to tell his friends!
Jack is changing so quickly now. He has stopped shouting all the time and now says things with meaning. Daddy, MumMum, Grandad, NanNan, Amy, Cat and Thankyou are the most easily understandable but everyday new words are taking shape. Amy is the little girl from the rhyme 'when she is good she is really, really good, but when she is bad she is horrid'. One minute she is laughing and babbling, the next she is in full scream, clenched fists, red face and tears flowing down her cheeks. She still feeds 3 hourly plus through the day, but then sleeps 10 hours at night. We have still not managed to find a teat that she will accept easily, every try does seem to reap better results though. Being a Grandmother is the best thing yet.
Last weekend was Hubby's and mine anniversary, I was working so didn't celebrate and two days before was Sister's. This weekend is also her birthday so on Saturday we are all going out to a curryhouse that also has a dance floor, food for the men, bopping for the women, everyone is catered for, promises to be a good night.

(3.8.05 21:44) Congrats on your anniversary!! Did you get a nice, romantic present by the way? =) |

(4.8.05 11:24) MJ - Thanks! Every year I get a charm for a bracelet. When we first got married Hubby gave me a silver bracelet, and every year he bought a new charm for it. When we got to 25 years he gave me a gold bracelet, and now I have a gold charm every year. The charms are always relevant to something that happened during the year, so the bracelets are like a record of our lives together. I suppose that's romantic? |

(4.8.05 14:18) I agree that Kinga is a stupi woman. I too was shouting at the tell "stop, what if the bottle breaks". |

(5.8.05 09:17) I only looked on in horror. Like watching a car crash in slow motion. Urg! |
