I am cool about it whichever way it goes. I only really get stressed at Andy's on/off behaviour and sometimes missing my kids birthdays and such upsets me.
But anything else life throws at me I am pretty calm about.
WOW, Jo!!!! Hope you're planning on starting another book about your life. A baby is always reason for congratulations. You already know that you're a wonderful mom and this new baby will be very blessed.
It was that one time I ML with him on 5 September and he was really directive and rough and then we decided not to until he'd told EX-OW2. We did use a condom and afterwards he told me he was booked for a V this month.
I haven't tested yet but I'm 80% sure.
Today the glass man came round and put a new window in. That was interesting to watch. Then Andy brought DD4 back, but he had an enrollment thing at the college for his reflexology course so he had to go. I knew this in advance and wasn't bothered.
Andy's Celtic Cross that he asked for for his birthday (on the 9th) came today. It's silver like he asked for, and I engraved it with 'Love Jo' on the back.
The Celtic Cross came from pre-Christianity times and the straight bit down the middle symbolises the male and the circle part of the cross symbolises the female and the merging of masculine/feminine energies (so Andy tells me) - that's why he wanted one.
He said he liked it and thanked me, and then he bear hugged me really tightly. I was thinking, if there is fruit of my womb, he will not be so huggy then.
He started apologising for having to leave because of this enrollment and I said I knew and it didn't matter (which it really didn't).
Then he went.
Alicia didn't want to go to dance class this morning. She asked to watch TV, so we're going to veg out for a bit before I take her to nursery school.
Hey, Gabe, your 'How' question just made me laugh.
I'll write an explanation for you if you haven't done it before
What happens is, two people of the opposite sex rip each other's clothes off and merge while the man whispers sweet nothings into the woman's ear in a pathatic attempt to disguise his carnal urges as being 'in love' while the woman wonders what colour scheme to have for the bedroom.
The man's seed swims up the river of her fertility and joins with her egg who was just sitting there patiently when she was bombarded by millions of brawling seeds josling for position.
She then divides into lots of cells and keeps dividing and growing until they form into what is called a fetus, which is the Latin word for 'Little One.'
Little One keeps growing until the woman's belly has blown up like a balloon and the man no longer wants to merge in case he bashes little one on the head.
Woman's Timer comes on and says little one is 'done' to perfection so they rush to the hospital, James Bond style.
With pain only a woman can know, the woman has expansions to move little one into the world, all while the doctors shout 'push' at her and she curses the day she ever met the man.
The man paces up and down the corridor outside, and since his woman was expanding for 24 hours, he paces the entire length of the hospital and back and manages to lose 2lbs.
Woman also loses weight rapidly, and baby arrives. A new human being.
The woman vows never to have sex again and the man goes to the pub to 'wet the baby's head'.
