good morning everyone
well, i can feel my mini mic kicking me. not only that i can see my tummy moving, which was amazing, yet slightly disturbing at the same time... it's rather early for this but the midwife confirmed it, so yay
went to visit my dad this weekend. had a nice time with him and his wife and exchanged some pressies. and went out for my friend's 30th yesterday afternoon and ended up staying from 2 - 8.30 in the same restaurant, ha. we met some of his other friends and me and thomas, him and his friends we hadn't met stayed after the others left for another 2.5 hours nattering. they were lovely

always nice when that happens.
unfortunately this means that we lost quite a lot of our 'manic tidying and cleaning of the house before mum arrives on wednesday evening' time. the house is a tip and we've only got tonight and tomorrow night left. and i'm probably working until 11pm tomorrow night :S so an awful lot to do tonight. and i didn't sleep well last night. so i'm hoping i'll be able to get on with it when i get home without going to sleep :S
speaking of fog, we were driving up to dad's on friday night and couldn't see more than about 4-5 metres in front of the car in places. they shut part of the m1 due to an accident involving 9 cars and we only just managed to get off before getting stuck in the traffic jams. and there was another accident going southbound too, and the traffic jams we saw that way were incredible. and when we got up into the hills near dad at times we were going 10-15mph because you just couldn't see. it was rather scary. but we could hardly turn around and go home by that point, ha.
did everyone have a good weekend?
