Mumble .. mumble ...
So now there are three in my mother's group who are officially pregnant. All safely passed the first trimester. Bated breath for those waiting to announce. It seems 1st birthday's were the signal to have another.
The other day in the park, the conversation strayed into the now oh-so-boring mandatory mutterings about the global financial crisis or the GFC as its become [sarcastically] known in our home.
Several people murmering about job losses, budget cuts, bleak futures. One who works for the so-called 'millionaires club' (pregnant) bemoaning what a crap outlook there was for the coming year.
'I think you can pretty much write off the whole of this year'
'Yeah 2009 is going to be pretty miserable' agreed the other
'Well its not going to be that miserable' I said 'you're having a baby!'
'Yeah!' said someone else ...
'Well that's not going to be that great ... the first six months are going to be awful'
What can you say?
Some people have only ever known what its like to have ALL their dreams come true.

The poor dears with the having children whenever and however they want. I don't know how they can manage all that luck and joy?
Some people, indeed.
yes, some people indeed. Where have you got to with your decision-making?
