Readers, the main reason I was offline was because of this new game I downloaded to my iPhone. It’s called Little Things and I think this clip form YouTube explains is far better than I can.
Basically, Little Things is Where’s Wally on steroids. Hundreds of images of random objects are arranged within the likeness of one main thing such as a domino.
I started off with these healthy baked potatoes filled with tomato, corn and tuna for lunch.
And then I gave in to this tub of KFC’s potato and gravy for dinner. It’s the ultimate comfort food really. Smooth faux potato and that viscous KFC gravy that’s in a class of its own in the fake goodness stakes. I actually had some for lunch today. I walked the entire length of the Pitt Street Mall looking for a KFC (and found it in the Myer Food Court) to satisfy my craving. All around me, city workers were lunching on ‘real’ KFC meals, noodles, burgers and fish’n’chips. And there I was reverently spooning red plastic teaspoons of mash into my mouth.

Whilst dressed Fisherman’s Friend via Melbourne style in chunky grey cable knit. I am loving this Witchery woolly jumper dress whatsit. It’s so warm I didn’t need to wear a coat over the top. I accessorised with my House of Harlow 1960 bangles and a large cup of orange juice.

That’s right, orange juice. It might look like a large Coke Zero but it was definitely orange juice.

I didn’t think it through properly because clutching a large Maccas cup when walking into a waiting room full of pregnant women is a bit bad arse in a Cameron Diaz / ‘Bad Teacher’ kind of way. But hey, for a moment there, I was living on the edge.
It was cold, wet and miserable looking out on the city from where I was but inside it was wonderful news for Mr SSG and I. We saw Baby SSG and he/she is beginning to look like a baby. There were quite a few obliging summersaults and burps for the camera and then some energetic arm and leg waving. Our NT results were the best that they could possibly be for my age and this pregnancy is now feeling both right and real for me.
Suddenly the thought of getting drenched in the rain on the way home didn’t seem so bad. Especially when there was a hot cup of tea and a warm blueberry muffin waiting for me at the end the journey home.
With a bonus smile at the bottom of the cup.
My head’s still somewhere in those grey, rain soaked clouds at the moment. As I sipped my tea and ate my muffin, I began the joyful task of getting in touch with just a few of the people who’ve been hoping for this news almost as much as I have been. There are so many of you, I hope I get to you all soon. If I don’t then please accept my thanks here on this post. For everything.
I’m going to leave things there. Dinner’s on the table and ……
