I am a terrible blogger, I know. I am so determined to have this updated a couple of times a week and life is just getting in my way right now. I’m still here, still reading all of your blogs and trying to comment. I’m just not managing to do the same here!

There are three reasons for this. The first, the children have been ill for nearly a month now – first with chicken pox and subsequently with complications arising from that. As a result I’m trying to keep them busier during the day so they’ll sleep deeply at night so by 8pm I’m absolutely exhausted! In addition to that, last week was a very hectic one work-wise for me but this will only be an issue for the next four weeks as I finish my job at the end of October and am taking a few months off to recover.

The third reason can also tie back into the first two, as really I’m just exhausted at the moment. Compounding this constant feeling of tiredness is a semi-constant feeling of nausea. I have not got morning sickness – I have the dreaded all-day-and-all-night sickness as Bob and I are expecting another baby. It’s news that I’ve held off on sharing after our loss earlier in the year but we’ve now had a scan to show that everything is looking good. We return on the 20th October for another scan to make sure that everything is progressing the way it should but it’s really a lot more promising than last time and the constant nausea is proving to be quite reassuring.

I will be back later this week, hopefully with an update on where I am with the PIF exchange (I have been working on this lots!) and perhaps with a cake or two. In the meantime you can catch my micro updates on the blog-affiliated Twitter.
