Hot & Bothered

It's way too hot to be packing and moving today, especially when one is 4 months pregnant, but alas we have no choice. Taking a quick breather at the mo before we get back to it. Seriously, how do we have so much stuff?

We now have a washing machine of our very own, but the blokes who delivered it (as well as delivering well before we told them we'd be in) wouldn't install it, so there's another job for hubs. Poo.

My 16 week Ante Natal appointment wasn't anywhere near as positive as those of my preggo F-List chums. Turns out I'm A-, so we thought I'd need to have some injections (that's OK though, since Hubs is A- too I won't need them) also I can't have McFly at the Birthing Unit in Canters because my BMI is too high. I've got to go to Ashford AND see a consultant, and all because I'm a bit of a LardArse. McFly then scared the pants off me when the Midwife couldn't find his heartbeat on the handheld sound thingy - they had to send me in for an emergency Ultrasound. Stupid McFly! Plus I walked there and back in the sweltering heat, which was a big mistake. Did go for a swim in the afternoon but got very dehydrated (AGAIN!) so had to have a lie down for a few hours, so I didn't have time to do any packing last night. And then I couldn't get on to LJ last night to bitch about it.

I'm hot and tired and mightily cranky I'm afraid - If I'm not around over the next few days it'll be because we've moved the computer and haven't got our broadband in the new place yet. Once we're in, and have cleaned the old flat up and handed in the keys (and once we've got our bed and sofa, which should be next week/week after) I shall be in a far, far better mood!

Still hot, less bothered.

Well, today has been very productive. Almost all our stuff, bar telly, pooter, shelves etc is now at the house, and Mother In Law and Brother In Law are bringing a van tomorrow, as well as chests of drawers, a freezer and our dining table & chairs.

Hubs has worked very hard today, hasn't let me do any lifting except for the lightest stuff. Mainly I've been doing last minute packing and driving between flat and house. I've needed two lie-downs today and will need an early night but I think I've been fairly useful! Thanks for all your well wishes, though - it shouldn't take long to finish off tomorrow, then we can tootle over to Flo's Bratwurst party (hurrah!) and dust/hoover/mop on Sunday (hurrooh.)

So, we now have our very own Washing Machine, tomorrow we shall have our own freezer and buy our own fridge, and on Wednesday we will be getting a bed and sofa of our very own. Wanna see?



All in all I'll be happier when all this is done, but it's not as stressful as I was making out!
