Since my parents moved in life has been hectic to say the least and I have really, really missed my alone time and my time with jd. Every room in this house is full and it's driving me insane arrgggghhh..... the only time I get to myself is if I go to the toilet lol! I've managed a couple of hours to myself today as mum, dad and jd are all at work..... ahhh the silence is blissful. I feel so much more relaxed knowing that no one is about to come bounding in the door! I do have to pick up miss g soon for the much anticipated hosptial appointment. Unfortunately, the last 24 hours has been nothing but rain grrrr!!! For me that means driving down a pretty busy and often dangerous stretch of highway to get there. Will be taking it easy that's for sure!!!

Now I love my mum I really do but it's hit home again just how much I can't live with her!! She has been driving me insane and really they are all minor things, I know but it's still driving me up the wall. Small things like, she has to wash her towels everyday... Look I do mine every couple of days. I know it sounds feral but that's just what I do. No dirty dishes!!! Apparently she can't handle having even one plate left on the bench.... arrrggghhhhhh!!! Us, we rinse the breaky dishes off and wash them up after tea but not my mum... has to be done as soon as everyone has finished. Same goes for the tea time dishes. As soon as the last person has finished eating that's it.... dishes must be done then and there. Bathroom must be cleaned everyday.... look the list goes on. I know it gets down to the fact we just do things differently but this really is my house at the end of the day... ok wow I sound like a whining toddler!!! G has turned into a spoilt brat and it's making me so mad!!! Mum lets her get away things that I would never and if I say anything I get told "Oh she's alright let her be...." NO THANKS!!! I'm the one left to do all the cooking as Mum hates it. It's not an easy task cooking for 5 people especially when two of them (Dad and jd) eat so much!!! Oh and I've been paying for all the food.... ummm hello, I only get centrelink benefit and my rents $320 a week... you do the maths. Jd is working but the pay is not much and we have bills to pay. The t.v is her's and she must watch what she wants.... ok.... not everyone likes the same tv shows but surely you can miss one episode of something so jd and I can watch what we want.... ummm apparently not. She seems to have this whole thinking that cos I'm home that I have nothing better to do..... well, rest is something I'd like to do and something the doctor has told me to do. This pregnancy hasn't been the easiest one and I'm currently not sleeping that well at night. Lucky to get three hours decent sleep a night so I'm usually knackered in the day. Oh, my favourite is I'll get up and start doing something and I'll get "You could of left that  I would of done it".... pity I'm halfway through it!! Sorry guys, I'm just feeling very used and almost worthless. Jd's getting the shits big time with her. He's sick of watching me do it all..... Ok I should stop now.

RIght, time to enjoy the last of the peace and quiet, get myself ready to go and get g then it's off to hospital. I hope that wormy is ok.... I've been having some weird pains and I'll be glad to be able to talk to the midwives and doc's about it. Take care all.

lots of love,

fi, miss g, jd and wormy (she really does love to kick.... OUCH!!!!)
