New House. No Internet. Knackered. Knocked Up.

In Which I Will Know the Truth

Am hoping I am able to sleep a bit better tonight as a lot of of last night, especially between 3.30 and 6.30, was spent wide awake with a tummy full of flittering butterflies. Normal? Apparently so.

And just as I was a bout to nod off at around 5.30 Boyfriend starts moving about and pulls off his boxershorts* and lies there totally nekkid!! As if anything would happen at that time....

Oh, who am I kidding? Let's try again: As if anything would happen no matter what time if there'd been almost no sleep! Naughty boy. But he did it in his sleep so I'm planning to interrogate and find out exactly what/who he was dreaming about. And trust me(!) I'm not above using waterboarding or electrical cables attached to nipples/testicles.

So sweet dreams ;)

*in an impressively smooth and quick move, I might add...

Oh oh

A new week today and as for many many people, a workday. Yes, it was dull as shit but not as bad as I thought it'd be so that's nice!

As far as the house goes... Meh! I only get stressed/depressed when I think about it so I've decided to skip that part (mentally) and am skipping ahead to Christmas! This year I am actually really excited as I'll be staying in Sheffield with Boyfriend and hopefully in the house with a proper Christmas tree.

The only thing is that Boyfriend and I have to agree on a date when to put the tree inside the house. I'm used to us (my family and cousins) going into our forest on the 4th of Advent (or 3rd if 4th is too close to Christmas Eve) to pick out a tree, cut it down, bring it home. Then it stays outside for a few days before we take it in and decorate it on the 23rd.

Boyfriend says trees come inside early December here. I'm not so keen on that as it will have died before Christmas itself... I can see some "discussions" coming up about this.

I won't give in though... Our Christmas is going to be MY way - or at least most of it.

Keeping It Up

"It's a new day,
It's a new dawn
It's a new life
For me
and I'm feeling good"


I think...
Yeah, I do.

Ka Pow!

And just as you think you can see light at the end of the tunnel of stress...

WHAM!

Something else hits you and you're pulled back and
you have to start all over again...

.

When will the stress and worry end?!

Goodness

I just watched Ice Dreams - one of those sappy, feel good tv-movies and I loved it. Got a bit tearyeyed as well. And how can you not like it? The main girl is played by Jessica Cauffiel, who played Margot in both Legally Blonde movies (love her!).

Yep, just what I needed.

In Which It Is Up & Down

This stress I'm feeling at the moment is starting to stress me out.
How's that for ironic?!
Yesterday it almost got me but I managed to fend it off.
I didn't exactly "hit the wall"
but
I think I ran into the doorpost
and it scared me.
I had a little cry in the Ladies and then I felt better.
Sad? Yes!
Needed? Absolutely!

All I can do is try and laugh.
Ha ha ha.

Be Still My Heart*

I am not sure if it is my heart that is beating so fast or if it is an Alien trying to break out of my chest cavity...

I don't know what's worse - a pulse of 84/minute (I have been stretched out on the sofa for the past hour) or housing one of those nasties...

Oh Why oh why did the Predators not kill them all? I was sorta cheering for them...



* But NOT too still...

November

Second day of November is almost over and it was quite clear from the start of yesterday that the lovely weather October had is not to be November's "song". It's a lot colder and a lot wetter. Oh well, it is after all ... November.

Our move has been postponed another couple of days. Our buyer's solicitors couldn't get done in time so another 5 days has been allocated. Stupid cow - the stuff she hasn't got is stuff she should have sorted out 2 months ago. So hopefully we'll get our house next week instead.

I can't wait!!
