We have so far had 3 lots of trick or treaters and it is now 20 to 8, so I dont expect that we will get many more. Which is nice as the dog, Harry, goes mad with barking everytime somebody comes to the door, at least he works well as an alarm system I suppose.
And as an added bonus we are left with several 'treat' size packets of malteasters, yummy. Might have to keep some for when the baby kicks and can be felt outside and get him to kick them off like the old advert.
Matt has been finishing work early recently, mostly because there is little to no work for him to be doing where he is, hence the very real posibility that he will be made redundant in as little as 2 weeks. On the plus side, he cooked dinner tonight, a lovely roast beef dinner and there is toffee cheesecake in the fridge for pudding later on, sometimes he does nice things and is lovely, and this is the Matt I fell in love with, I am hoping the balance of nice and irritating starts to balance out.
I am so glad today is Friday, I am desperately in need of a lie in, recently pregnancy is making me more and more tired, earlier and earlier in the day, which is to be expected but doesnt make life easier and by the time friday rolls around I am just ready for sleep.
I think me and Matt are going to watch a film tonight, I contemplated Saw III but i've decided against it, that will have to be a Saturday morning film so I have the rest of the day to recover before bed time. I am a wuss.
Right now though my pj's are calling me, they are currently my most comfy clothes!

Bugger i pushed something and the below post posted before I wanted it to, grr.
I'm very excited about having this baby now, he's my little man! And been something for me to focus on this week. The baby I lost earlier this year was due to be born this week, and I know that that pregnancy wasnt meant to be, it doesnt make it easier to get over. That said it isnt something I dwell on constantly, just with the due date having just passed, its brought it back to my mind this week.
But, Oliver is who I think about mostly, and he has his own song that we play to him. Matt puts his phone on my tummy and plays the song to him, which I think is lovely and usually gets a few kicks out of him too.
The song we play to him is this:

"Godspeed (Sweet Dreams)"Dragon tales and the "water is wide"
Pirate's sail and lost boys fly
Fish bite moonbeams every night
And I love you
Godspeed, little man Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
GodspeedSweet dreams
The rocket racer's all tuckered out
Superman's in pajamas on the couch
Goodnight moon, will find the mouse
And I love you
Godspeed, little man Sweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
GodspeedSweet dreams
God bless mommy and match box cars
God bless dad and thanks for the stars
God hears "Amen," wherever we are
And I love you
Godspeed, little manSweet dreams, little man
Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings
Godspeed Godspeed Godspeed Sweet dreams
It's by the Dixie Chicks, and its lovely. I must dash now though, Silent Witness part 2 has just started.
Matt is either brave or stupid. Why would you constantly call a 5 month pregnant woman that she is stupid and useless unless you were clinically insane. Espcially when I am neither of those things. Is it a crime to ask him to move the cds that have been temporarily placed in the hall blocking the bathroom back into the baby's room so I can have a shower? No, I thought not, yet apparently in doing so I have become inpatient and useless and been told to wait. Grr.
I am so glad that tomorrow is Friday, there have been things this week which have just got to me and I cannot wait for the weekend. Not that I think we are up to much, seeing some friends and going to Matt's dads which is always nice, free dinner too!
Back to the subject of the baby's room, the painting is now complete, the wallpaper border is up, the curtains are back up and if we are going to Matt's dads this weekend we will probably collect the cot. We are having Matt's sisters old cot, his youngest sisters are only 4 so its reasonably new and it saves us money which we are desperately trying to save. Can't wait to get all the stuff set up in there though so its all ready for baby to arrive. I should probably stop referring to him as baby as we have decided on a name now, our little boy is going to be named, Oliver Maximillian S

Well first off i'll start with an ouch! About a week ago Matt dropped a glass in the kitchen and it smashed, we thought we'd got it all up but it turns out there is some lurking in the carpet, which found its self in my toe this evening.
Cue me trying to put a plaster on my toe, no easy task when bending over is becoming increasingly difficult due to a certain mr baby living in my abdomen. Having managed eventually to get one stuck to my foot I then notice that there is a lovely bright red trail across the carpet from the kitchen to the living room and Matt having a go at me for getting blood on the carpet and promptly getting my the carpet cleaner to tidy up. Cheers honey, its nice to know you care!
I quite like Wednesday evenings, Matt buggers off to the pub leaving me with quality puppy time and the freedom to choose what's on the tv, which for the last few weeks I have chosen to watch Silent Witness. I've always liked things like that, maybe its my wierd fascination with the morbid side of life. Maybe its still a part of me that wants to be a foresnic pathologist, either way it means I get to watch Dr Harry Cunningham for an hour and he is yummy to look at!
I am really bad at ending blog entries, just as I am at coming up with entry titles. So maybe I should just have titleless entries that just end on nothing, like a cliff hanger?

A real update
Maybe now is a better time to try and write something in here than on my lunch break in the middle of an office?
First off I would like to appologise for what may be a somewhat misleading blog title/description as it is unlikey, although not impossible, that I will be involved in any adventures with Mooses.
Mooses, Moosi, just Moose? I like mooses so we shall stick with that. Having said that though I am hoping that I will have plenty of lovely things to write about.
I've got plenty of things I will probably need a place to rant about if nothing else, im sure having a baby and planning a wedding isnt without its stresses on top of the everyday things that get to me.
It is sooo cold right now, which im not sure I understand why, the heating has been on for 2 and a half hours, and it seems to have made little to know difference to the temperature in the house. Maybe that is just because it is so much colder outside tonight than it has been. I mean I know its October, and therefore Autumn is well established and getting ready for winter, but for there to be snow in some parts of the UK today is just insane, SNOW I TELL YOU, IN OCTOBER! Bizzareness!
So, with that in mind I think its time for jimmy jams and a curl up on the sofa.

So after being somewhat coerced into starting a new blog by some colleagues due to my refusal to share the details of my existing one, I find myself here at blogspot which as a site is entirely new to me, the concept however is not.
Having said that the contents of this new blog is likely to be somewhat different to my normal blogging, maybe, I dont think I can not write like me really so maybe this is just going to be a second edition, one with less spelling errors perhaps, or maybe not.
And that concludes this lunch times updates, mostly due to what seems to be the entirity of the office now standing within easy viewing access of my monitor.
