stellar_muddleWe seem to have hit an inflationary epoch in the expanding universe...
Of the 3 bras purchased last weekend, the $10 underwire one was established to actually be slightly too small early in the week. :( Unclear if this was expansion since the weekend or just not ok by the end of the day. At least the others are ok, but that is due to no underwires and they are on the last hook out. Next size up will probably be required by about mid Dec.
People (at work) are also finally noticing (or actually commenting now) on the fact I am looking pregnant (it is about 21 weeks...). Curiously, I have been feeling huge for a couple weeks now (though especially this week) but apparently not obviously. There may have been a slight clothing shift in the past week though. And see initial point about inflation...
20 week scan was this week. All the organs and limbs were apparently there and limbs were waving around in the appropriate fashion, so all good. No boy bits were observed, so most likely a girl, but this is not 100% guaranteed. Z got a chance to see directly this time. We have a cd with images, but have only been inflicting baby slice photos on family members who can't run fast (they aren't particularly photogenic and generally consist of specific baby slices eg 4.85cm across the skull or appropriate number of chambers to the heart - feet and fingers still look cool though).
In non-pregnancy news (generally costuming, cats and weekend doings...):
Linen undertunic has at least been started. I had forgotten how nice and relaxing it is to be curled up on the sofa, with a cat on my lap, sewing while watching tv. Current series are alternating between Castle and True Blood. it is good to be in the middle of a project again.
Babbage is currently migrating through a different snoozing cubbyhole roughly each week. Tonight was on the shelf of Z's desk, by the TV. Other locations have included the shelf beside the pantry, on top of a tent in the fabric room, and in a box beside the garage door.
Lovelace is now a year old. Babbage will join her in about 2 weeks.
In terms of the weekend:
Sat filled with voting (general election etc and SCANZ AGM), a very nice medieval dinner and the chance to catch up with people. I can thoroughly recommend spending election night ignoring the election results at a medieval feast.
Sun was yum char, a long nap in the afternoon and some blobbing in front of True Blood. Not productive, but the mental health benefits of a comfortable sofa with entertaining TV, a purring cat and a hot chocolate should not be underestimated. At one point Lovelace was curled up against my leg and I was curled up against Z's leg...
Running out of November...
