nest nest nest nest
I am doing some very serious nesting. I’ve been mopping floors, washing towels (even ones that don’t need it), even cleaning windows. And I’ve not just been telling other people (i.e. my children) to do these things, I’ve actually been doing them myself. Now this is peculiar for several reasons:
1. I am much better at administration than work. In other words, I’m better at telling people what to do than I am at doing it myself.
2. I have never nested in any of my previous pregnancies. Never. Not so much as a bit of light dusting. And here I am cleaning windows? What the heck?
3. I am only 40+4. Yes, I know that pregnancy is supposed to last 40 weeks, but that’s normal people, not me. I reckon I’ve at least a week to go, possibly two.
4. We have only lived in this house a few weeks, so it’s not even like it needs any major cleaning. And yet, somehow, that’s what I’m doing…
So.
Our new Argos cards finally arrived this morning, so I’ve ordered Barney’s bed. The poor child has been sleeping on a pile of two mattresses since we moved in here. The double bed he previously used is in the spare bedroom, but he wanted to sleep in his own room, so mattresses it was. I’ve ordered him a mid-sleeper bed with drawers and shelves and a pull-out desk- the plan was to order it along with a few other things once we got the Argos card, so that we could put it on one of those don’t-pay-for-six-month deals - unfortunately all the other things we needed were out of stock, so it wasn’t possible (unless I bought a bunch of things we didn’t need, and I wasn’t about to do that). So I might as well have ordered it a month ago and stuck it on the Visa card. Ah well. Maybe it will be here before the baby arrives, maybe not. At least Barney will have a proper bed to sleep on
