Weekend (so far)

Been a slow couple of days. We've signed and returned our new tenancy agreement. Woo.

I was so bored last night I reorganised a bunch of my books. I now have 46 books on top of the bedroom bookcase... nearly as many as I do IN the bookcase!

Have now finished 3 1/4 of the books I bought. Keep in mind that I also read 2 newspapers a day and read the New Yorker on Thursday and the Economist yesterday...

I've just had spaghetti and meatballs, eaten only half but I know I will be hungry again in 2 hours :/ Last night I had dinner at 20:00, pudding at 22:30, and was hungry enough for a bowl of Rice Krispies at 01:00. Then I was hungry again at 03:30, had an apple, went to bed, woke up at 05:00 feeling hungry and told my stomach to sod off. Guess this is the hungry part of pregnancy....

Ah, the NHS!

Neil's colleague's wife is pregnant; she's due end of March.

She's already seen a midwife. Hmm. (they live in Bedfordshire) So maybe it's just Barnet that's royally incompetent!

I showed Neil the timetable on the inside of my maternity records. He laughed. It was almost as good a work of fiction as a London Bus timetable.

(First midwife appointment Monday, I shall be 21 weeks)
