still no baby come a'peeking yet. :0)
i spent yesterday in the hospital because this polyp i apparently have on my cervix started bleeding again. those of you who follow me on twitter know this already. it was fine, baby is fine, just a bit of blood again, but because they are very cautious, they wanted to keep me overnight for observation.
i think hospitals are sort of weird in the sense that; they're meant to be a place of healing, yet the 2 things that really help the healing process, ie: sleep and nutrition are not come by easily in a hospital. sleep is impossible on a ward because ALL the other people on the ward snore like big heavy giants, and the food is omg, the food is so so so bad and SO non-nutritious! (toast with strawberry jam that has no strawberries in it in the mornings!). but hey, i am not complaining because, i have to say that the medical care is superb! i just don't see how, let's say, someone who's had a c-section can actually recover on the ward there if you can't sleep properly for 2 weeks! i was EXHAUSTED after just 1 night of not sleeping or being interrupted by snores and beeping machines and night staff shuffling around!
crazy that.
anyhoo, i'm back home now, patiently awaiting little new one. i know it's mostly and the only thing i seem to be able to talk about now, but obviously; having a baby is a bit of a hugely mammoth sort of experience, ha ha. you can't quite ignore the huge bulging stomach and the thought of a new person in your life pretty soon! :0)
but, i shall talk about other stuff too! yes, i shall.
1. those who entered the prize draw, here be the video with the winners!! (and also; the making of 'wood girl').

3. i enjoy enjoy enjoy my iphooooone! :) everyone, if you haven't already; download doodle jump!
4. i'm rewatching all of grey's anatomy again, it's so bad, i dream about the cast almost every night, it's ridiculous!

big hugs. x
I think you do great! Considering how much stuff you have going on just now, you sure do make a lot of time for a hell of a lot of people! Tam, you're ace! Jemma xx
ReplyDeleteCan't believe 9 months has gone so fast. Hope everything goes OK next week (assuming he's on time of course)
ReplyDeleteTam--that's a lot of NeoColors you use so I have a question. What do you use to seal a piece like this? I've tried using matte varnish but the instant I do, it re-activates the NeoColors and they get all muddied! It's very frustrating. Help?
ReplyDeletethanks jemma! :))) xoox
ReplyDeletethanks rho!!!
ReplyDelete@artiste nouveau; i don't tend to seal them, because i often mix my neocolours with acrylics they're sort of sealed within the acyrlics paint! :)
