Last week at work

I have been very quiet the last month... I think it's just baby prep and nerves that have sent me into a hiding hole. This is my last week at work. Excited to be finishing work and too have next week to myself to rest and mentally prepare for my little girls arrival!!! 

This week at work I just want to finialise small things. Also I'm seriously considering silencing all my work related email, group chat etc while I'm on maternity!!! Seriously don't want my work  bothering me with crap while on taking care of a newborn!! :( And of course I've been pinning to my hearts content :D So many cute ideas for my little girl! 


This is the hospital photo I plan on introducing her to the world with! (Of course, mamas going to take her red lipstick with!)


I'd love this in her nursery wall, if I could just find the decal!


Beside the niceties of being a new mommy, I'm also dealing with the admin... Claiming UIF is effort. The queues are ridiculous so I'm seriously considering using a UIF claim service. I hope it's legit and that I'm not going to be ripped off but at this point I'm willing to try anything so that I don't have to stand in those queues.... I'll let you know how it goes :D At least everything with my medical aid is in order so I can relax about that.

Now just the wait.....

:'(

Not been a great day today. For the 2nd time in a month and a half i was in a fender bender... While in a traffic circle a guy T-boned me. Im starting to think i shouldnt be driving red cars.... This is my 3rd accident in a red car. My excess is R4000. Yet another expense i didnt plan on spending. My husabnd said he would gladly pay it so we can get my car fixed and i am very grateful for that and him, but im still not feeling better. Im almost 31 and i feel like i have achieved nothing in life. I dont own any property, i earn a pathetic salary, i have a failed enagagment behind me that almost crippled me, all i have is debt, i have a failed buisness that is still costing me R2800 pm for the next 3 yrs, i have no savings.

My husband owns the house we live in, he has 2 flats, earns a excellent salary, is a engineer with a Masters degree... He pays for everything... I feel incredibly pathetic and under-achieving now... I know it will pass but this is not a great moment for me. Could also be pregnancy hormones and the fact that i am very unhappy with my body right now that is making this worse. Hopefully tomorrow will be better....

:((((

Tonight is tough.... My husband had some issues at his work on major project he is working on. Unfortunately the issues that arised where his fault... :(
It was a genuine mistake on his part and it can be rectified but obviously his bosses are not happy with him. He is so down and upset, I don't know what to do to cheer him up! It's not the end of the world but he feels like it is for him.

That's one thing people can't prepare you for when you get married, is how your spouses career affects you. Yes, maybe it's obvious that it will but so intensely??? I feel that his issues affect me more than my work issues. He's the bread winner so if something happens to his work, we'll be in trouble... 

But also, I am over reacting. This is one mistake that can be rectified. I just need to learn to relax! I really wish I would worry less. It's not good for me, my baby or my family. Maybe I should try yoga? It meditation? Need to figure this out...
