As I’m in to my 11th week I decided to tell the girls at work the other day. I really couldn’t wait any longer. They were all so excited! One of the girls is also trying to get pregnant at the moment (which we all knew) so I was a little worried about how she would react. She was very happy for me but admitted to being a little jealous. She had a few questions and said she would try not to bug me too much but I was really happy just to be able to talk about it. The next people I have to tell are the State HR manager and State Ops manager. I’ll probably tell them during the week.
Today is Easter Saturday and both Daniel and I have 4 days off. It was also Daniel’s brother Adrian’s birthday yesterday so we went down the coast Thursday night to celebrate. There was a whole group of us that went out for a great Chinese dinner and then Daniel and I crashed back at Adrian and Mickey’s. A lot of the food was deep fried and some dishes were a bit fatty, but overall I enjoyed the meal. Unfortunately later in the evening when we were the only ones left they all started smoking inside as well as outside. This made me feel a bit ill and I had to drag Daniel outside and away from everyone else to avoid the smoke. I didn’t want to make a fuss so I hope they didn’t think I was rude.
Yesterday we had a lovely Good Friday lunch with fresh breads, cheeses, dips and smoked salmon. I didn’t think I liked salmon but I gave it a go and it wasn’t any where near as bad as I remembered. We just had a quiet afternoon and Daniel and I head home about 3pm.
Today has been a boring cleaning day but our friends Matt and Kirsten are coming over for dinner soon so it will liven up shortly. Better get into the kitchen and get busy.
