It’s Not You, It’s Me
I haven’t been here lately because I have been in an utterly foul mood, and I didn’t want to say something I might later regret! I’d like to go ahead and blame it all on the hormones, if I may 
I don’t remember being so pissy when I was pregnant with Finn, but for the last two weeks, I have felt like I’ve had permanent PMT. Not good. Pity the fools who cut me off on the road! (Ummm, before you go ahead and flame me, I am actually doing my very best not to taint my child with bad language, so I just let my road rage simmer). But that guy - that one in the shopping centre the other day who stood in front of my shopping trolley (which was, at 5pm, being pushed by an equally irritable 3 year old) to ask if I’d participate in somesurveyorother - after he had just seen me decline the offer (politely) from his colleague, not 3 metres away… don’t pity him 
He deserved far more than the black scowl he got. I mean - looking like I did that day, in my daggiest tracksuit and unwashed hair, with my enormous belly weighing me down… did he really think I was just hankering to get my teeth into some marketing research? Yeah. Right.
You get the idea. So I’m staying away until I have something slightly better to report. Hopefully that will include a couple of exchange happy dances - once they arrive at their destinations, anyway.
Later edit: I just realised. It just hit me right out of the blue - the reason I was probably not so cranky last pregnancy was because I was allowed to eat sugar! I was no doubt getting cranky, but bingeing it away with good stuff like Tim Tams! Damn!

(((Hugs))) to you Melanie! I can’t imagine it’s easy to be in your last month of pregnancy, especially with the no-sugar rule being applied. I hope you feel better soon and I’m always around if you want to talk.
