Ooooooh HELLO!!

scarysuejonez · 23/10/2006 23:45

At last

scarysuejonez · 23/10/2006 23:46

I hope you didn't skip anything I could have used

scarysuejonez · 23/10/2006 23:47

I think my brain has decided that the way to speed up the visa process is to eat. And by god I'm doing a damn fine job of it.

scarysuejonez · 23/10/2006 23:47

So whats the cunning plan about meeting some new friends then?

CorpseBrideOfJohnCusack · 23/10/2006 23:49

blimey the midwife has just rang and said I have scarily low iron levels. Hurrah! there's a reason for being this knackered! usually there's nothing wrong and I feel like a flabby old malingerer but for ONCE there's something actualy wrong. woo-hoo

believe me sue, what went to the tip even Steptoe and Son would have passed over. My new house will be beautiful. Expect to see it in NZ HOmes and Gardens v.soon HA HA HA HA

scarysuejonez · 23/10/2006 23:50

Excellent news about the low iron (well you know what I mean), I love it when a whinge becomes a real. Bugger, I wish I was anaemic.

CorpseBrideOfJohnCusack · 23/10/2006 23:51

hmmm friends

well I have a couple and their daughter who moved here a month before us - he is also a musician and I am relying on him to get me some playing

now I know where we're going to live, I can find some local playgroups etc. and start doing something about it. Also I have started going to threebob's music classes so I should hopefully meet people there (as well as 3bob of course). and other than that - dunno. better find some people with babies due the same time as me in an attempt to avoid the PND mire that I found myself in last time (and that was WITH lots of friends!)

CorpseBrideOfJohnCusack · 23/10/2006 23:52

I know, I'm really excited about the low iron. A reason to feel crap!

scarysuejonez · 23/10/2006 23:52

there must be a NZ version of NCT that you can join?

scarysuejonez · 23/10/2006 23:53

and you can sigh and say to your DH - "I KNEW something was wrong but didn't like to make a fuss"

CorpseBrideOfJohnCusack · 23/10/2006 23:58

I know

Anyhow, glad to catch up briefly. Good luck with it all - I will try to follow it on here, don't want you to have to repeat things - and saw you said you'd say when there's news so I Won't Ask.
Got to go and feed small angry child. Then maybe lie on the sofa in a martyish, deserved way? lovely

scarysuejonez · 24/10/2006 00:00

Well have a lovely time languishing and will post prominently when I'm off...

scarysuejonez · 24/10/2006 15:09

all my bags are packed I'm ready to go

JackieNoHeadJustABloodyStump · 24/10/2006 15:52

Oh wow. FINALLY - it's been long enough, hasn't it, and a couple of false alarms. So, so excited for you. Will be thinking of you. Keep us updated via MN or your website, won't you - you'll have loads of people checking in regularly. for you (don't really do hugs, but am sitting here all but hugging myself with excitement, so thought it might as well get passed on).

JackieNoHeadJustABloodyStump · 24/10/2006 15:59

And having just visited your website, this is actually a bit earlier than you were expecting, isn't it? About time something happened early for you rather than being delayed.

littlemisssensible · 24/10/2006 18:48

Hurrah Suejonez!

I'm so pleased for you! i wish you a safe journey and a happy ever after as well!

scarysuejonez · 24/10/2006 20:26

I'm hoping that lots of happy jiggy dancing will work off some of the gazzillion calories I have eaten this week. By tomorrow

JackieNoHeadJustABloodyStump · 24/10/2006 21:03

Frankly, sue, who gives a @% - you're on your way. That's miles more important.

JackieNoHeadJustABloodyStump · 24/10/2006 21:04

(more important than calories, I mean)

Dottydot · 24/10/2006 21:14

Sue that's wonderful news!!!!!!! Can't wait to hear from you and all about your baby (I feel like an Aunty or something - all proud and wanting to know everything!).

justamindlesszombiemum · 24/10/2006 21:37

Sue, I am doing happy jiggy dances for you too, before I get confused again, when do you fly? I got a bit excited when I saw your other thread and thought you'd already gone! I'm so pleased things are finally moving for you and that you will soon meet your new son or daughter.
Mrs "corpsebride" jc, love the name! glad your house move is sorting itself out, is moving across the world the only solution to a messy house and crap furniture, if so, see you soon. Incidentally, when is your baby due?
Jackie, I know what you mean about eating in the car, I have just had to hoover my car to hide evidence of my clandestine sausage roll eating- the one I eat in the car has no calories and doesn't count towards my lunch!

scarysuejonez · 24/10/2006 22:12

I will either be flying on Saturday or Tuesday. Its a public holiday tomorrow so the Embassy is shut and I may not be able to get the visa by Saturday, if not, the next flight is Tuesday.

justamindlesszombiemum · 24/10/2006 22:23

fingers crossed for you!

CorpseBrideOfJohnCusack · 24/10/2006 22:28

haqve posted on other thread. top news sue!

justamindlesszombiemum, also love your name. Baby is due Feb 23rd. And I"m not sure our solution has worked out yet, as survey results came through and they could be better. Off to hassle solicitor - think am going to have to ask for money off the price agreed - hate this!
