It is somewhat of a nail-biting situation!

I managed to sleep about 3 hours, during which there were two minor interruptions due to phone calls.  Funnily enough, during the second phone call, the person calling me told me to "rest as much as possible today as tomorrow is likely to be a very long day."


I know a bunch of people are anxious to get updates.  It is currently 1:10pm here.  My appointment isn't until 4:30pm. Meaning - updates won' tbe available until this evening.  Nerve-wrecking, right?

SUSPENCE!

What's going on?

As you might have noticed, my blogging has slowed down over the past few days.  This is due to 2 main factors.  The first being that the space key on my keyboard has been pissing me off by only working when it wants to.The second reason is a sudden increase in exhaustion and aches.


Being more tired and achy that usual means I can't concentrate as much on what I write, nor on doing research. Sucks, but I have to deal with it.

So, for now I just wanted to share that little update, and also say that being so close to giving birth is scary.I don't know if it is just me or not - but I feel like running away from it all. No matter how much research I do, I still feel unprepared.

I've been crafting some more over the past couple of days.  I would normally have finished this doll already had I not been having worse back problems than what I grew accustomed to.  So, I figure it will be completed in a couple of days' time. Here's what I'm working on:

 

Guessed what it is yet?

Tomorrow I have my doctor's appointment, so I should be having more updates then.

Off-topic: Stats update

Wow. Yesterday was one hell of a busy day for the blog! New records were set-which I'd like to share with you.  I started the blog for my own satisfaction- to help me unclutter my thoughts- but seeing these kind of stats motivates me to keep on writing. Thanks to each and every one of you for showing such a keen interest and for being so supportive!

 Highest amount of hits in an hour!

Previous highest amount of hits in a day - 283. Yesterday - 472!

THANK YOU!

Ground control to Major Ros

As a goodnight post, I'll just give you a few updates from my end, for a change.


It is now officially less than a month left to go.  Creature is due in the week commencing 5th of February.  Having said that, I might pop anytime now.  The house is still not babyproofed 100%, but it is getting there.  Thanks to my future sister-in law, I got quite a bit done today, including moving around some furniture to make sure I'll be able to wheel in and out the pram.

I'm more tired than ever with really bad bouts of insomnia, as you could've guessed by my frequent middle-of-the-night entries.  My back is killing me, and it is suddenly becoming more and more real.  Soon enough, even running a simple errand will need to be planned for in advance.  Stress levels are higher than ever, obviously.  I try to juggle everything, and hope for the best.

What else can I tell you? Hmmm... I don't know really. Every day is pretty much the same as the previous one.  If there is anything you'd like to ask, feel free to post your questions - or comments as desired.

I do wish to thank everyone for their support.  Yesterday was one hell of a busy day for the blog!  It has had the highest number of hits so far - 283 visits - from quite a variety of countries including Russia, Malta, UK, USA, France, Germany, Netherlands, Australia, Ukraine, Italy and a handful more!  I keep getting people commenting not just on here, but also via Facebook and Bodymod as well.  Everyone is being rather encouraging and supportive!  Even seeing visits, day after day, coming from the same countries - it makes me happy to think that you lot take the time to read my inane ramblings.  So thankies!!

I'll get back on track with the blog later - for tonight, that is about it.


Toodles! <3
