Feeling very very sick and very very tired at the moment - I guess at almost 8 weeks my symptoms have really started to kick in. Hence a quick resume type post is about all I can manage this morning.
My Weekend:
Friday night: first night out since December 2006 (yes I can't believe it either) - dinner with my three closest girlfriends. Lovely. Got home at 11.30 pm and almost keeled over with tiredness.
Saturday morning: a walk around Hatfield Forest and Alex fed the ducks and ate an ice cream.
Saturday afternoon: an afternoon nap.
Saturday evening: I watched Amelie again. I had forgotten just how much I love this film. I love the music, the oddball characters, the tiny details, the colours, the romance, the narrator - just everything about it. It is a perfectly crafted jewel. I have a Very Long Engagement on DVD on loan which is made by the same team but I still haven't manage to stay awake long enough to watch it. (I am going to bed ridiculously early these days)
Sunday morning: breakfast and the papers and playing village building with Alex.
Sunday afternoon: visiting my parents house and meeting up with my brother over from Boston for the week and my darling nephews Tom and Hamish. Telling the family our good news. Even though it's early days it seems I would rather they knew after all.
Sunday evening: early to bed with Sebastien Faulks new novel Human Traces. Lights out by 9pm!

About Me
- Ruth
- United Kingdom
- Hello I'm Ruth. I am a mother of two (who recently turned 40!) living in beautiful Suffolk, England. My interests include gardening, exploring, hiking, camping, photography, crafting, thrifting and learning to be a better parent. I dream of living in a ramshackle cottage with roses round the door, an orchard in the garden and chickens in the grass but I live in a 1970s brick box! My children - a boy aged 5 and a girl aged 2 - are the centre of my universe and I adore being a mum at long last. Welcome to my blog - my place to chatter away about all the things that interest me. I hope some of it will interest you too.

You don't need me to tell you that you're tired because such monumental things are happening inside your body - just go with the flow and take the chance to sleep while you can - the mundane things will always wait :o)
