Well.... hmmmm got the usual text from jd this morning. I do beleive he said to me "hi hun. things came to blows last nite. im fine. love u, miss u". Ummmmm ok. Tried to call him but they have moved further away from York Island which means bad reception... you get the picture. Anyway, text's were still getting through so all I could find out is that jd had a fat lip and a sore shoulder..... otherwise fine. I kept trying to call him then finally success. It was a pretty bad connection but this is the story ( well what I could make out anyway).

The other decky and him were sorting prawns on the deck. The other guy turned around and said something along the lines of "you're such a big kid....." didn't quite catch the rest. Anyway, jd turned around and said "what did you say?" the guy repeated it and that was is it!! Jd ran across the deck and well pretty muched decked him!!!! He apparently sent him flying across the deck. Well, considering jd is nearly 6 ft tall and the other bloke is about 5'4 and skinny... you do the math. Well jd then decided to get this bloke in a head lock, thats when the skipper came down from the bridge and broke them up. As jd was stood there listening to the skipper the other bloke decided to smack him one, hence the fat lip!!! So after all of that jd has pretty much guaranteed himself a trip home. Now while I'm getting pretty excited at the thought of him being home next week.... I just wish it was done a little differently. I can understand why he did what he did though. This guy has been driving him insane for the last month or so and they did the last trip together also. When I have spoken to jd, I have heard this bloke in the background..... not my cup of tea. Apparently this is the third or fourth time this bloke has been smacked out by someone this year!!! The skipper really likes this bloke though so you pretty much cant win. Really, if it was me out there, I probably would of punched him out weeks ago. Jd is not a violent person at all and really is one of the most patient people I have met. I guess this guy just pushed and pushed him. Also not being able to escape and have some of your own time doesnt help. These two have to share a cabin together as well. So I could (fingers crossed) have my man home by next week sometime. That would be so fantastic.

I've been battling pretty bad nausea today..... I wish it would just leave me alone now. A friend of mine dropped around earlier today. I haven't seen her for a few weeks, so it was high time for us to catch up. Anyway, I opened the front door, she took one look at me and just started hugging me. I knew I looked bad but surely not that bad. Now my friend is not one to lie but she is usually very gentle with the words she uses... not this time!!! She sat me down and told me I look like hell basically. She hugged me again and that's when the tears just flowed. I do feel terrible, there's no denying it and apparently my outwards apperance reflects just how bad I feel on the inside. I know I've lost my usual spark and I am so desperately trying to get it back. Maybe it's just a bad day.... although I seem to have many of those strung together. I want to enjoy this pregnancy but when I'm so ill all the time, it is really hard. I have no energy for anything.....maybe I should go to the doctor. I've made it this far on my own though. I don't think there's much he'd be able to do anyway. Guess I'll just have to keep battling on with the hope and prayer that the nausea ends sometime soon....

Well, hope everyone is having a great Friday! Oh, has anyone heard from Arna??? I haven't seen her online and I really hope that everything is ok with her and puggle..... Thinking of you Arna.

love to all,
