Dontcha just love the weather?

No, not really. I had to drive through torrential rain for approximately an HOUR each way to do what normally takes 25 mins to drive just to get to the hospital for my OB appointment on Wednesday. Had I not had DH with me I would have packed it in and rung the hospital and said see you next week! We persevered though (even trudging up several flights of stairs in the carpark because the bloody lifts were flooded) We were hoping that because of bub's size that the OB would say, you're here to stay and have your baby today. Of course he didn't agree with me (he's not the one who's going to push it out) but he did say that because of my age (39) and bub's size that I would not be going past my due date (19th June) I, on the other hand would be as happy as the proverbial if she made her way into the world just a little bit earlier than that. Not being able to bend over without nearly passing out and being breathless all the time is starting to take it's toll on me.

But anyway, haven't really done much in the past couple of weeks. I finished work last Wednesday (13th) so am now officially on Maternity Leave till May next year. I went to the Scrapbook City Retreat on the Anzac Day Weekend and had a ball with the ladies. Maybe next time I'll get to spend all 3 nights away from home. Oh what bliss!! I still haven't finished all of what I started that weekend but I'm sure I'll find time somewhere in the next 12 months (maybe) I have grand plans of what I would like to do but we all know that they come undone by very small demanding people. I don't care, I can't wait!!

I hope everyone is safe and well during this bizarre weather pattern that we are experiencing. The sound of rushing water in the tiny little creek that runs behind my place is not the most welcoming of sounds late at night, especially when it's the only way out of the street. My old workplace at Herston was flooded half way up the walls the other day. I don't know if they've been able to get in and take stock of the place yet. I know of several people that have lost cars etc. But then I hear from my Great Aunty in Winton that she's had no rain in God knows how long.

Cross your fingers that it doesn't get worse.

Bye for now, please leave a comment.
