Bits and Pieces

Just saw the new Twilight movie, was pretty good.
Have been painting the cot and change table, turns out I'm not a very good painter but they are looking alright if not a bit rustic, but god does it hurt! I'm so stiff and bruised and pulled a damn muscle in my shoulder again, will be good to get it finished, which is taking much longer than I expected.
I am in love with my tummy, and also a little freaked out by it. I mean when you think about it it's a pretty weird thing, something living and growing inside you and morphing your body to accomodate it, but it's also pretty cool, I keep getting shocked when it grows some more.
Weekend away went well, E and Mum got along, think they are both so set in their ways of not talking to each other that not much has changed in terms of not calling each other or anything but at least sticking them together for a weekend finally broke through the akwardness and got them civil again.
Missing Melbourne, mostly the freedom I think. It has finally hit me that here I can't just get up at 6am 7 days a week and walk to get somewhere, to go shopping, jump on a tram or train and go somewhere. Here I am not within walking distance of anything except parks to walk in, I have no sign of public transport, and really there isn't much to do here anyway. I am seeing myself turning into one of those women who "lunch" and shop to fill in the days,  but for now I have to get lifts into town to do that too, which is immensly frustrating, looking forward to getting through this whole L plates thing at last.
That may be about it for now.
