I really wish my maternity leave was that long. I only get 6 weeks which means I go back Monday. :\ Im going to miss her like crazy.

That sucks so much.Hope you cope ok with it.

Sounds like although things are hard you totally have them under control..I am sorry that I have not posted to your journals in a while..I have not been on here to much...I probably missed the journal that was all about the babe...so, Congrats!!! I am so excited for you. Just remember that although things are tough now you are all in the middle of a transition period..things are in constant change as you get used to each other and how your lives are now. As time goes on things will get easier for you...but, again..many congrats!

Hey Sarah, good to hear from you.

Bubbys sleeping paterns are getting better & I am happy about that.

She does seem to change every few weeks, at the moment she is sleeping 7 hours at night which is fabulous.

I have to admit I have had very lite time for live journal myself.
hope things are well with you.

I'm glad you get to extend your maternity leave...:) I know it makes things harder financially but it's all worth it. I'm so going to dread going back too. But money wise we can't survive on one income forever either.

With your job though, could you work form home a bit?

toasted_kitten July 11 2003, 21:10:58 UTC

It's dam tought financially but we are scraping through.

I could possibly work from home with my job but that us really up to my boss, he did say I could go part-time & I thought mabey 4 days a week one of thoes days from home but we will see...I really want to be able to afford a two bedroom place fairly clos to where I am now so for that I need my full salary.....we'll see

Also I am looking forward to the next picnic on August 16th, Matt is so good to organise it all.

azriel_72 July 12 2003, 14:36:58 UTC

I can tell you now that if I didn't live where I live...ie. in the Western Suburbs, there is no way in hell I could afford to take a year off work.

Yeah..Matt is great to organise the picnics. What a champ :) It'll be great to finally see you again....:)

Also, when tresillian help you out...can you please let me know what they tell you as Arielle sounds very similar to your Charlotte. She sleeps at night and is up pretty much all day every day (ecept for a morning sleep). It's only because she does sleep thru the night and I get sleep there than I'm able to cope with it most times.

I have been thinking about moving a bit further out.Though we are stuck with my unit for 4 more years as I fixed my interest rate & you can't seel unless you exchange contracts on exactly the same day, though idealy I would like to keep the unit as an investment property & get a bigger place.It won't be easy though ( ... )
