Too Hot, Too Pregnant

It is far too hot to be pregnant.  Most people around Perth at the moment are complaining about the heat (it is currently 41C ... farking HOT) and they're not about to give birth to a baby the size of an elephant.  I had to go to the bank to do a simple transfer of money today and I waited til I had a babysitter at home, then went out on my own in the heat to the bank.  When I got there, the bastards told me that the transfer I wanted to do had to be done before 2PM (it was 3.30)!  I said, so there is no way I can do this transfer before Monday?  Oh yes, she said ... if you come back tomorrow before 2PM.  I mean seriously!!  How can they not do the transfer NOW and send it or whatever tomorrow??  Are we not in the age of electronics??  So angry!  So damn hot and too farking pregnant!

OKAY .. that's my rant, and I do feel better now :)

Onto more exciting things.  On Monday we take possession of our new house.  How absolutely exciting!  The only downer is that it is in Victoria and I am in WA.  Which means that I have to have someone else collect my keys for me and walk around my new house without me there.  Bummer.  Oh well, hopefully the renovations we do won't take too long to be completed and we can move in .. and start a totally different life!!  Scary.

We plan to move mid year, which means winter.  We will be moving from the warm climes of Perth to the freezing cold of central Victoria ... so I am sure I will be complaining about that when the time comes!  But right now I can promise you, I would give a LOT to be experiencing a big chill!  

Also is fantastically apparent that Germany does NOT experience the Summers that Perth does!  This is evident in the R32's air conditioning.  Seriously .. not efficient enough for here!  Although, again, I am sure come winter I will be very appreciative of the HEATED seats!!  Meanwhile the Toyota Prado we have (yes, my 'family' car) is obviously manufactured in a hot climate, as it's air conditioning will freeze you in a matter of seconds!  Deluxe!

Ah the weather.  It is so true that you could spend hours discussing it!!

Also today, the girls in my mums group starting placing bets on date, weight and sex of the new bub, Smirnoff.  Such a laugh!  So far there is someone who has correctly identified both the sex AND the date ... the weight of course will remain to be seen.  I have informed the punters that the prize is a period of no less than 4 hours straight babysitting all THREE of my children!!  Strangely, no one is keen to win the competition .........

Okay, I have used far too many big words for my hot baby-placenta brain to cope with!  Til next time .... :D
