Just because I'm pregnant doesn't mean I can't have a bad week

I'm having to type this from my blackberry as to cap off a very long week at work, my computer has decided to croak. This rather puts paid to my plans of a leisurely cruise through your blogs, a couple of long posts, and a bit of research on line, not to mention the work I am supposed to do.

H is away this weekend, which I'm a bit sad about but it had its upsides. Until the computer croaked and H forgot his promise to fill the fridge for me so I returned late last night to find just the elderly broccoli and courgettes which have been there for over a week, some apples I put in there a couple of weeks ago with the aim of making stewed apples from them as they were somewhat past their best, and the usual assortment of condiments etc. He also left the sink full of washing-up, and the washing machine loaded with sweaty gym kit. Can you tell I'm a bit irritated?

So instead of my original plans I'm about to go and drop my computer off at work, and then find somewhere exciting to buy something enticing for lunches and dinners this weekend. If you have a blogger blog please forgive me for lack of comments recently, I can't comment on blogger or wordpress from the blackberry and that's currently my only way to read blogs as I'm travelling so much. The doctor is going to ground me from mid-july, so hopefully things will get a bit easier then. I've started to get swollen ankles even on short plane journeys, so it's really time to slow down.

I'm tempted to really indulge and go and buy the mac H and I have both been hankering after for some time, in which case you might get more this weekend. We'll see.

Oohh - the Apple store on Regent Street isn't too far from Villandry - that would definitely do a mac and then food quite nicely! Hope the irritation goes soon.

Very important to treat yourself to all sorts of wonderful food that H hates this weekend. And watch all the movies he hates too. ENJOY!

I vote for the Mac! Hope the rest of your weekend is peaceful, sweetie. xx

All I can say is that you might be down, but boy do you have some Blackberry skills! It would have probably taken me an hour to type a message that long on mine - take care and we'll hopefully hear from you soon!

Yes, ease up on the travel please and try to find some more downtime. Otherwise, we'll have to worry about you...

And bad H. I know he's usually a pretty good guy, but dirty dishes in the sink, no food in the house, and laundry in the washer for his pregnant wife to deal with. Hope he makes it up to you when he gets home.

Dear Thalia, what a bother! I hope you get a bit of relaxation in this weekend, even if it is forced (if you disregard the computer frustration, the work pressure, the cleaning pressure and the grocery pressure...) I hope things ease up for you soon. And if you are hankering after a Mac anyway, hey, now's as good a time as any!

Huh. H has some 'splainin' to do - if not to you, then to US! He, he.
