Midnight Musings....and munchies

Why is it that at this time of night (morning actually 1.21am) that my brain cant switch off and my tummy grumbles??  Brain has NO problem switching off in the middle of the day.


I have many things on my mind, least of all can i make toast without waking the entire household? probably not.


The upcoming trip to Sydney this Sunday has me a bit excited. Just like a kid. We will be exploring the Sydney Aquarium. I know to some its just a bunch of fish type creatures, but i think some of them are beautiful and some ugly or scary, just like us humans i suppose. Sharks fascinate me up close, but only because of the knowledge that there is a pretty huge, thick chunk of glass between those sharp fangs and my delicate self.




I am also pretty excited that we are staying at the home of Mrs S. I used to babysit her kids when i was about 11. Same age as Christie. I couldn't imagine her babysitting anyone and cant believe that i was actually considered responsible enough to care for these 2 kids!  The home of Mrs S is located very close to the private catholic girls school where i spent the first 4 years of high school, learning how to be a good catholic girl. (fat lot of good THAT did considering i ended up preggers at 16). However, many fond memories of that institution and its long brown socks.
I hated those long brown socks. If we didnt wear those we had to wear brown tights. yuk.     




Might even do a drive by of our old house in Cambridge Park.

So of course on my mind is the hospital visit. Going under general for 3 procedures (which i should prob google so i know what to tell Miss C)  I think i am freaking out slightly more than she is - how will she cope with the general mainly. Thank goodness for google, again i am sure it has a heap of info on this kinda stuff.  She wanted to know what would happen if she didn't wake up. Told her that if she didn't wake up she wont be worrying about not waking up.  But i worry about it, after all it can happen. But i will go with my usual 'she'll be right'.



Made some progress with all the medical thingos (for lack of a better word at this time of morn). Appoint with the pain management clinic at westmead, gastro dudette appointment, the Connective Tissue displaysia clinic accepted Miss C (most important news). Just have to find a decent paediatrician up there seeing as they are scarcer than hens teeth down here in countryside Canberra. Ridiculous.

Sooo now that the brain cells are starting to snooze its off to dreamland for this old Mama Bear
