Bored Stiff!!

Oh and needs to be of little cost.. as i went and got one of those debit plus cards from westpac and what a stupid idea that was cos now i get bored and dont need to leave the house to go shopping!!
I got bored yesterday and bought some makeup from a place called makeupdirect (the makeup is alot cheaper that retail, i got my makeup for $29 and its $41 at farmers :) but the point of buying it?? I dunno i was bored!!

I am still working from my home office and I am having the baby tomorrow, so I have no idea what boredom feels like, lol!
I think it's a great opportunity to catch up on those things around the house that normally get neglected. Like sorting through your wardrobe and getting rid of anything you don't need. Sort your pantry. Clean windows and skirtings. Cook some 'heat n eat' meals for the freezer to have once baby is born. Sorry - all housework suggestions I'm afraid!

Watch all the grown up / girlie DVDs you have always wanted to see. As you will probably watch nothing but Spongebob and HI-5 dvds for the next 5 years.

Sort your pantry/freezer so your set for dinners for first few weeks.

Hehehe babytyme...I was the same as you for the first week as well. Now I have noidea what I do to kill time but I seem to waste it quite nicely. I avoid shopping though as I just feel guilty shopping for boredom.

I spent a lot of the first week making sure all our bills were set up with APs etc so we wouldnt miss any when baby arrives and we are preoccupied. I caught up witha few friends who are also on maternity leave. I met some of the ohbaby mums....set up a meeting, there is always some who are free for coffee and a lot are young like you.

REad books, get out DVDs, bake, lie in

U could try painting on some cheap canvas squares, something for the baby's room! Or make a mobile... I got some ribbon, some old wooden coathangers and some old soft toys and made one, it came out really cool! Or u could get some scrapbooking stuff and start working on a scrapbook for bubs, u could put scan photos, congratulations cards etc into it!

I like crafty stuff, it's fun, not demanding and makes u feel like u are achieving something!

HI thanks guys!

Well iv got a tonne of scrapbooking stuff maybe i should start her album..
i just dont want it to turn out thats its not a her eeeek..
everythings pink!

ohhh and the moble sounds fab.. its the only thing i forgot to buy!

lol italiah..

lol.. does it really help things along? Im only 1/5 engaged will it help her get down there faster?
But where do i walk? I have good intentions of walking but once i get out the gate im bored because i have noone to talk to?

hmmm its a nice day here i think i might kill two birds with one stone and walk to the library :) I walked down to the mall on monday but every few steps id walk she would move then it felt like my nerves in my thighs were pinching and it would go real tight and hurt and id have to stop untill it stopped.. hope i can make it there lol

lol.. i like it, iv got people to talk too. And im sick of cleaning because everyone messes it up!
I mean how hard is it to put something back after you use it..
Yeah i asked a question in the nappy thread too.. lol.
DF's grandma is bringing us over some fuzzis and when i asked her bout them she was like "what are nappies"
i was like what???!!! But they call them diapers...
Useless bit of info but its another minute passed :)

Oh gosh, if I was pregnant again I would do so many things that I never have enough time for! I'm so JEALOUS!!
