Well, in my last entry about a week ago, I was stressing over schools for Ruby etc for next year... it has been a headache and caused some friction between my husband and I.. anyway, in a nutshell, we weighed all the pros and cons and decided to send her to the local public school, which has a really good rep and offers lots that either of the other schools we were looking at doesn't....anyhow, one less thing to worry about for the moment. With three children we can't afford to send them all to the Grammar School for all of their school yeras. so we have decided to wait and see what abilities our children show and then gently nurture those talents when the time comes. We have locally a selective school for high school for Academic Kids, as well as a local Performing Arts school as well as a Sports High. .. There are lots of options for us, and if at the very end, we decide in eight years time that the local schools are not suitable, we still have the option of sending them to the private CHristian schools, of which we have two fairly local also.
SO have put that baby to rest so to speak... aaah.
The other piece of news i have is that I am finishing up at the salon in two weeks!!
I had a shocker on Friday, a massive day and long, and I ended up in tears that night because my back was giving me absolute hell!! My leg kept going on me from the Sciatica...so my body has made the decision for me really!
I am so nervous about not working.... I don't know why I have some issues about myself staying at home, because the idea appeals to me and I feel a yearning when other stay at home mums mention it, but for me it feels like ... I don't know.... not sure. I think I just have grown up since I was fourteen and have always worked...
Anyway, it gives me more time to focus in myself and get organised for this lil baby... whom I am thinking might come early if my cervix has any say in the matter! I feel like it is starting to drag on the ground when I go for my walk now
Not only that my old walk used to be for 55 mins, now I walk for like.. 25, and I do a circuit with five corners and by the first corner I am ready for a wee!! After my walk I feel so good that I overdo it and then end up crippled again...It is a little annoying..
Anyhow, my two new girls at the salon are working out so well, I thought about it today at work, and just made a snap decision, that I am finishing up on the 18th of this month. That gives me six weeks off until my due date... I hope I don't go stir crazy!!
I am such a control freak, and the whole letting go of the salon is like putting my kids in daycare or something... it is freaking me out slightly.
Hey Diana, what did you end up getting at your Intimo party??? The new catalogue comes out in two weeks and some beautiful stuff will be available!! I can't wait, it is like my wardrobe constant esp since being pregnant, it stretches and is oh so comfy!! I love it, esp the fact that you don't have to iron it!!!! 
I measured my waist a minute ago. I am 129cm now....I think I am huge but when I compare it to my intial measurements when I first started Betalife last Year in Jan, I guess it isn't so bad!
I decided to cut Peppers' hair the other day, then the next day I had to cut it again, to even it up and then the next day a bit more... today I took them both to the hair dresser to have it fixed... Poor Pepsi has the shortest fringe and the cutest bob. Ruby just had some ends chopped from her curls to stop it getting so tangled!
Anyhooo.... had a rotten sleep last night so am off to sleep very soon!!
Good luck with the challenge, Nick your latest pic is great, you are doing so.. well!! Should be so proud of yourself!
Anyway,
Night All,
Love Sez x

Hi Sez,
Well I bought the miracle bra at my friend's party and a sports one. The party is tomorrow, so I'm thinking the "Everyday Sculpt" camisole in the nude. I really would also like something from the "seduction range" , prob the nightie...very sexy....I work as a high school teacher in a christian school and I highly recommend them. Very caring and supportive environments to be in. Having said that I have friends in all sectors, private, public, cath ed etc...all have good and bad experiences...
Take Care

The decision to send your daughter to the local public school sounds well researched and looked into....be at peace with your choice....

Hi Sez
Take it easy. Relax. Your six weeks will go by pretty quickly. You can always pop into the salon (for coffee). There will be so many little jobs that have not been done that you will now be able to do. I am sure you will fill in your time, constructively.
Intimo!

I wondered just what "Intimo" was, so went to Google.
WOW! some very nice things, and ideas. You really do have a wonderful life.

your lucky you live in an area where there is a lot of choice for schooling, some schools suit one child perfectly but others struggle or get left behind so having options means you can make the right choice. I am sure she will love her new school
When I was pregnant the thought of not working actually made me stress, I loved my job and worked my butt off (unfortunatly not litterally lol). I intended on going on leave 2 weeks before my due date but there was just too much to do- being end of financial year and all, so I stayed and took it one day at a time and finished up the day I was due. I was supposed to go back to work but with all the problems that did not happen, eventually I started to love being a full time stay at home mum and dont miss work... well maybe some days when eric is in a particually bad mood lol.
I guess 6 weeks in a good time, nothing wrong with resting.
Thanks for the comment by the way

Hi Sez, it does sound like your body is trying to tell you something. I imagine it would be hard for you stopping work especially as it's your own business but hopefully you'll find plenty of things to occupy your time with.
I bet your pleased to have made a decision on your daughters school for next year, I'm going through that whole dilema at the moment too, wish me luck!
