for all.......... wishing you peace and happiness in your days. Holiday/vacation time thus far has been rather busy.......my Husband and Sons have been painting our Conservatory as it was worrying him......and that means me playing the supportive role and of course Number One tea maker! It is nice though to have us all together, and it should be finished today, then we can start going out and about. As for Mother-in-laws.........we took mine for lunch this week as it was her first Wedding Anniversary without her Husband......we thought flowers and some nice company was in order, so we gathered up those members of the family that were able and suprised her. I think it went well. I am learning all the time how not to be a wicked Mother-in- law............but it must be so very hard to give up ones children to the care of another...... Mind you they do say, let something go and if it loves you then it will return........ and I have a few years yet before my eldest will fly the nest! All the talk of babies and such.........brings back so many fond memories......the years go by so very quickly........so I shall say to Eva, enjoy them and take each new day as it is given, no babies are the same, and yours will be who he or she is meant to be.......with love and affection it will be happy and content.....and before you know it, talking of marriage *L* Oooh, lots of waffle this morning.........now I best get breakfast........ I think my Husband deserves his in bed this morning ;D to all................ and a special to Letha for being such a special lady!

Out of reach: just today I discovered that our phonelines are dead, as is our internet. I am just leaving a little message here so you all don't think I have gone in labour yet. The baby seems too happy where he is. Unfortunately this also means that I won't be on further today. I am using my moms wireless network for just a moment. Hope to be back tomorrow.

Hang in there Eva....... baby is too comfy but will get curious soon enough. I need a holiday to recover form this 'holiday'! Change of routine, out and about....fitting in all those extra jobs my Husbands is so keen on doing...... it is hard to watch him work so hard when I want him to rest.......but the Conservatory is nearly finished and has been done in stages so as not to become too much of a chore. I have supervised well and given constant support with good food and endless supplies of beers and tea/coffee! Most important job of all hmmm. ;D We had a super day out on Monday to celebrate 30 years of marriage, and hope to visit the beach tommorow. I am reminded so often that it is those simple little things in life that have always and still do give me so much pleasure. to all, with well wishes as always. Hoping to read more of you all??

Happy Anniversary to the Dreams!! *hugs you both* It sounds like you are making great use of his time off, and building more than a conservatory with the memories. Don't get me wrong, but whenever I log in and don't see word from the Queen, nurturing hope she's holding her newborn already. Soon, I'm sure . . (I really shouldn't say anything about my "Warrior" going 3 1/2 weeks overdue!) Woke to a carpet of crunchy white coating much of the ground this morning. While it's nice to have the cooler weather, frost is just a bit much quite yet . . (I swear it wasn't fake!) It's been a rather hard few days of late . . my aformentioned "warrior" finally confirmed that he is actually in Iraq. Even though I knew this was coming for months and months . . to think of him there, at last, is just . . surreal . . Radiating good thoughts for Beren, Eva's Mom, Repsol's poor Mother-in-law *g* and dear Sinny . .

*laughs* You guys made me laugh! And I can really use it. I'm in the doldrums at the moment, and I knwo I shouldn't be, but I'm getting so impatient to see him and hold him and yes... just have him OUT. *LOL* I try to keep fit by going to the gym nearly every day and walk a mile to two miles on the tredmill and work out with weights, but some days, like yesterday I just can't anymore. I managed today though, which makes me feel a lot better about myself. My mother is here and knitting a beautiful shawl for me as well as helping in the household. It's fun having her here, but I wish the baby would have been here too so she could cuddle him.

Stina........ how lovely to see you, so grateful for alien computers! Stay safe and well......look forward to seeing you as time allows. Yesterday was a glorious day spent at the beach, the added bonus of watching the Air Show was tragically marred by one of the WW2 planes crashing. Nobody else was injured as the pilot crashed outside the area into a field......it was so awful to watch the smoke and know he had probably not survived.........it was confirmed on the radio and also TV news later........ how sad, but it was wonderful to see all the old aeroplanes again. Makes us remember all those original pilots who did so much for our freedom in the War.......in every War. Stay safe and well all...........and as Sonya said in another thread....... tell your loved ones how you feel about them......let your heart speak, for we simply do not ever know what the day holds for us.

*Big hugs to everyone* I am so sorry, I feel so bad about not being around, but I can hardly sit for more than half an hour anymore, without having to get up and walk around a bit. Plus I sleep more than a groundhog. *L* Still no baby, but since the doctor has decided to make him come out on wednesday (so he will probably arrive very early on thursday) it won't be long now. So sorry to not be around. Baby is being stuborn.
