Am going to write an update but not really about Andy, just my life in general.
Publisher told me that my vaccination book is now at the press so that'll be done in a few weeks, that's good news. I've made my book website 'Christmasy' for the Christmas sales and made a few large orders to osteopathy clinics. I am at the moment writing an article called 'The Diary of An Egg Donor' to try and publicise egg donation and to see if I can earn �500 to cover my kids Christmas presents and the food.
Got up this morning, got my period which shocked me as it's only been 10 days since egg retrival and they told me it would make me late. Instead I am early, but pleased because it means I won't have one on my weekend to London.
My girls walked in at around 12.30, DD1 was wearing this waistcoat I bought her and promptly pointed that out to me
All of them walked in and made themselves at home, and Andy walked in too. I moved and sat at my computer table away from him. I complimented DD2 on this blue hat she was wearing, and she said yeah, same colour as those blue knickers you've got that you let DD1 borrow (they had no clothes when they were round here).
Andy chipped in, 'yeah, I've still got them and that pink belt of yours and this orange pair of leggin's.' I asked him if he would return them to me. He said yes.
Then he asked how I was after the egg retrival. I was a little niggled that he couldn't ask that right after my surgery when I was in his home, but I bit my tongue and told him that I had pain for 4 days, but was now fine. I showed him the card from the IVF clinic.
The kids started talking about Christmas films so I showed them which new ones I'd bought for us to watch at Christmas (unopened so I don't watch them before then) and Andy asked if I was buying anymore.
Andy said, 'look, this is silly. This house is too small; why don't you come to mine for Christmas instead? You can still cook the dinner, just do it at mine instead of here, then we can eat at a table instead of off the sofa.'
I asked him what I am supposed to do with the frozen food. He said to store it at his. I said, 'no way, you'll eat it before Christmas and waste my money.'
He said he wouldn't, so I said okay. He said come over Christmas Eve. I said okay. I hope it isn't as bad as the last time I went over.
I said I'd wrap the kids presents this year. He said okay. I haven't wrapped their presents since they were 4 and 5!
I asked him to babysit from the 26th as I am going to London next day. He agreed.
I got them all some lunch and then they left and said see you on Monday.
