Safe and sound, and other fun things

I finally got an email yesterday!  Until I got that, I was wondering if everything was going well, but of course she's fine. She said the flight was long and uncomfortable -must be those long legs of hers- but she was able to watch two films. On arrival they were taken to the hotel and she shared a room with 3 girls. They all went out to Taco Bell at 9.30pm because they were hungry... WHAT? Are they NOT FEEDING my BABY??! (picture me clutching my heart in a dramatic manner).  That's already two things she's experienced that I haven't: a transatlantic flight and a Taco Bell.  Anyway, you can read all about it on her new blog if you feel like so inclined.
This week is particularly tough because it's the week of all the monthly Executive meetings, and it's glorious sunshine outside so I keep looking out longingly and dreaming of the evening when I'll be able to go and sit in the garden with an ice cold Diet Coke. So far, that's not happened because I got home late both nights. Damn shame!
To keep our spirits up, the girls in the office have decreed that we are going to learn to jive or lindy hop next Tuesday after work, which will be interesting.  I'm glad the joints are behaving at the moment but it could be a totally different story next Wednesday morning! I might also have to invest in a heavy-duty sports bra. Sorry for the overshare; I'm just saying.... 
So - I hope this post finds you in good spirits and full of the joys of summer. Back soon!
