And then there were two (more)

My sister in law had her baby today! It's weird to think we were all sitting around the table on Monday translating Wagner and Wednesday she has a little baby boy. I was so used to her being pregnant, it seemed to go on forever. My friend K had her baby on Friday too - I am the last lonely pregnant person here. However, I am experiencing vicariously that amazing happiness you feel just after having a baby. I might have a stab at putting the feeling into words after my next little baby comes, if that's possible.

Tonight I experience the creepy joy of having my entire house to myself - my daughter is with her granny and my husband is (as per usual) away doing his consulting job. He is away a lot, but I'm used to it. Besides, as he points out, the money is a lot better than if he had a regular local 9 to 5 job. He configures operational systems. A while back he printed a few business cards that said "We'll configure your ass if the money's right."
