Me and the fin bean go walkies

awol blogger

thats me, sorry, i just dont seem to get round to turning the computer on much! god, life is odd, fin is fab and coming on in leaps and bounds but everything feels a bit uncertain at the moment. there wasnt enough hours offered to me teaching, so i cant go back to work at my old job and now i am going to have to find a new one. plus the whole phd is in limbo. i think i am going to have to be brave and try to think of a date to start it again, and maybe even a desired finish date or i can see the whole thing going down the swanny. argh! can someone give me some encouragement, i think my brain has gone to mush and no one will ever emply me, never mind give me a doctorate! dammit

weekend away

yes, david and i have just returned from our first weekend away from fin! i had to express more milk than they usually have on sale in tesco, but it was worth it. we drove to our posh hotel (room won on the net by dave, well done daddy!) and ate a lot of food, (about 100 quids worth) and i had wine. it runs out that if you dont drink for over a year, two glasses of wone is your limit if you intend to walk home! haha. then on saturday dave went and got fine and nana and grandad (daves parents) who had been baby sitting and we spent the day together, which was really nice. had a pub lunch and a mooch about. then dave took them back and i sat in the hot tub for a hr, got a bit dizy, had a shower and tarted myself up for the evening meal, where we ate another copious amount of food. then we had a walk on the worlds darkest windy beech and went to bed. up this morning and then more hot tub before breakfast, then drove home becaus ei was missing the boy. he was FINE, and is now eating baby mush! so far:

baby rice: loved it
carrot: loved it
pear: didnt touch the sides
parsnip: pulled a face to start with but then ate it all and smeared the rest all over his face and clothes.

thank you to davis mum and dad for looking after him!
