emotional - 08:29 PM
(filed under 'baby')
i've been rather emotional today. although really, i'm doing pretty well, from what i hear of the intense emotional states of some other pregnant women. today would be only my fourth emotional outburst.
this morning i chucked a bit of a spack at poor shroom because i was running around trying to clean up a bit before we had some people over for a barbecue & i felt sort of rushed. he wasn't doing anything wrong at all. when i finally got into the shower after doing this & that, i realised that i was frustrated at myself for not being able to do as much as i'd like, for getting tired so easily, for falling behind in the housework & not having done the things i had to do earlier in the week (which would have meant i didn't have to do them this morning), for having elephant legs & for feeling kind of fat & ugly.
tonight i'm getting all teary over the pics of britt, trauma teddies & even just reading other people's blogs & the nice things going on with them.
lucky shroom loves me anyway, emotional outbursts & all.
now though, i think i'll turn my brain off & watch the sunday night movie. i hope you've all had a good weekend. despite my hormones, i've had a pretty good one.

britt's birthday in hospital - 09:02 AM
(filed under 'site stuff')
it was britt's fourth birthday yesterday. she celebrated it in hospital, of course. in this morning's email, there was one from greg (by brother-in-law, britt's daddy) with a link to some pictures of her birthday party. it's lovely to see her smiling, but i can't help looking at them & being sad that she can't have a 'normal' birthday because of the leukaemia.
still, i'm thinking positively. the latest news is that she's responding well to treatment, so all is well so far.
please continue to keep my darling little britt in your thoughts.
i'll probably talk to mon today to find out more news & then possibly post a pic or two of her birthday with mon & greg's permission, then you can all see who is in our thoughts lately.
