Sunday night

Anna has engaged in a competitive deal with her sister and brother-in-law about who can lose most in weight untill the summer, starting tomorrow. Hence tonight is the last time for a while she can allow herself sweets.... She almost cleared the shelfs of the store..
So now we're both bunked up in Anna's bed, pjs on, eating sweets and watching Narnia... lovely!

by tomorrow at the latest

got a text from Fio today saying there's still no news... We're all still waiting for anything to happen.
Although she did say that - at the latest - by tomorrow her, Klara and me, we'll be aunts..

No updates yet

Still pacing around at home with the phone in my hand.. Am counting the hours, and yes - of course minutes as well.. Woke up every other hour tonight to look at my phone, just in case I'd missed something.. So just for today, please don't call me untill I heard more updates, I jump as soon as my phone makes a noice..

Got the text

At 16:23 today all three of the aunts-to-be recived a text from Nettan saying that she was in labour. So my phone is now constantly within reach in case of further updates. I've already been speaking to Klara who were basically doing the same.. As do Fio aswell I presume..
Hope for Nettans sake that it won't take too many hours.. But giving birth isn't really known to be a pleasant - or short - experience. It'll be worth it in the end though, soon we'll have a new baby with us! As always in female social groups, all young ones are instantly adopted by the whole group... hence;... Girls, we're having a baby!!!
Thinking about my dear friend constantly now, can't wait for the text saying the worst is over and both mother and child is well...
Sweden have never been further away than now...

First morning off since we got here and me and Anna celebrated that in orderly fashion - by being hungover.. Went out with Anna's workmates yesterday after work for a drink, then a fancy dinner then some more drinks... Staggered out from a cab sometime in the early morning..
Now we're off to asda to do some foodshopping - and maybe buy some eastersweeties... :)

happy easter everyone..

Sunday

We've arrived safe and sound in Manchester and today we have moved in to our new home for the coming 10 weeks. In Hulme, just 15 mins walk from central Manchester.
I'll update more later on.
