Does anyone else love the feeling you get when you can be completely and utterly happy for someone else? I’ve been crossing my fingers and wishing on eye lashes for the past two months that my friend would get the news she deserved and on Tuesday she had her twelve week scan and saw her babies heartbeat. I know exactly how she was feeling and when I received the message to say everything was okay I had the biggest smile on my face for the rest of the day. Honestly I am overjoyed for her. It’s such an exciting time, and I love that I can share it with her.
I find too often these days that people can’t be genuinely happy for someone else, not unless they are benefiting from it in some way and I hate this. Why does the world have to work like this?
My new year; new me is going fairly well...caved and had a small piece of chocolate today. Other than that though we’ve been eating nice healthy food and I’m enjoying it. Making me feel less tired and happier in myself. I know it will be a while before I notice the affects but I’m still motivated – usually I get s far as day 2! Had my hair cut yesterday as another step – I have a little side fringe now and I really like it. Have a look for yourself and let me know what you think!
Next weekend Ant is going to take me out for a treat.... the healthy eating will go out of the window that night. We’ve only had one night out alone in the past seven months so we both feel that it is due. I’ve been dropping hints for a few weeks and last night he turned to Joshua and said ‘Joshua I think Mummy is trying to tell me something, new clothes, new makeup new hair’ Then he told me he would take me out, so to arrange a baby sitter.
Will be lovely to get a night out alone as a couple but will also be strange as it’s only the second time Joshua will have been with someone other than the two of us. I know he will be fine, he’ll most likely be in bed before we go and my neice is more than capable of taking care of it. Just strange though!
Anyway I think that’s enough randomness for today!
Thanks to everyone who has left comments I really appreciate and love reading them

Lovely random blog :D And you know I really like your new haircut :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad Ant managed two days without you with Joshua and that your time back at work was better than you thought.
Loved to have you back for random emails during work :P

The new hair looks fab!
ReplyDeleteAnd the all happy blog made me all happy for you! :) Good stuff that work wasn't all that bad and go you at succeeding at being the new healthy you! ;) And don't fret over the bit of chocolate, you're a girl and girls are made for eating chocolate :o :p
Love the new hair do Lu. HAHA that if funny that Ant talked to Joshua saying that I think Mommy wants a night out. LOL But that is very sweet of Ant to say lets go out. I think he missed the alone time like you.
ReplyDeleteThat is also great that you did well at work this week. I'm sure they won't mind when you ask question since you have been off for a while now and it will take time to get use to things again especially if it might have changed since you were on maternity level.
