Life Continues

The random day-to-day rantings and journalings of a modern woman (I wish) who is trying to juggle wifehood, the wish for motherhood and a career.

What a day

Ok, today has got to be the worst day ever - for a least the last month anyway. Did the preg test, turned out negative. Found a new way to make AF (aunt flow) arrive - take a pregnancy test that will be negative - AF is definatly on her way. Man - whoever thought up the aunt prefix to that should seriously reconsider. My opinion of an aunt was someone indulgent. This is anything but. Cramps, sore @@, moodiness and don't forget the tendancy of some to burst into tears at the worst moment. Oh, that would be me.

Had a meltdown in the staffroom at morning tea - got told i looked upset about something. No, I'm fine - said I the salwart warrior. Yeah right. Tui ad. Felt the onslaught of tears and got out of there as quick as possible, running across the road to a friends place and bawling for twenty minutes straight on her shoulder. Hm, good thing I wasn't meant to be teaching next period.

But, all clouds are meant to have a silver lining, and my meltdown meant that I missed the earthquake scenario drill in the first aid course that I've been doing over the last two days. Pity they didn't teach us how to deal with emotional women. I could have used that one, or my DH could have at least. I feel sorry for him, he was getting so excited about the possibility of a baby. I wonder how the guys cope sometimes. I can get away with a crying meltdown, he doesn't really do that.

Another silver lining - I can make sushi for dinner. I can continue to buy lunches for the next wee while. Ok, I've run out of silver lining and am just making myself annoyed now.

Anyways, all good things must end, like this day - and I'm off to go and do some scrapbooking and make sure the fire is going in the lounge. Tonight is bubble bath, TV and pure indulgence.
