Annnnd the news is....

So this post has been a bit delayed. I am so tired all the time, I can hardly find any time to eat, let alone update the ol' blog.

Work has been crazy busy. I have been writing a 48 page Fiji brochure practically solo, and that has been a huge learning curve.

Samoa has had a huge hit on all of us at work. These are people we work with, people who we know, and in my bosses case very close friends. Most of these people have lost their jobs and homes, as the tourist part of Samoa was hit hardest by the tsunami.

There have been so many horror stories, and my heart goes out to all the people who have lost friends and family. One family owned resort lost 14 members of their family, and are now faced with the HUGE task of trying to rebuild their home and livelihood.

The Samoans are the nicest group of people you will ever find, and it is such a shame it happened to them! We were also on the lookout after the earthquake of Santo (Vanuatu) but luckily nothing happened.

I also read in the NZ online newspapers that people (dumbasses) went to the beach to WATCH the tsunami as there were current warnings. Jeez.. lets take the family, kids, dog and a picnic to the beach to be potentially washed away by a tsunami. Sounds fun!

Anyway... the reason I have been away, is because a few weeks ago Peter and I found out that we are expecting a baby. The news scared us shitless, but thankfully we are both now really excited. I am 8 weeks along, so a new edition in May.

I don't want this space to become ramblings from a mum-to-be so instead of moaning about my pregnancy I have decided to not say anything. Bad idea.. as I have been eager to share the news! Luckily I have not had any morning sickness, so the whole thing doesn't feel real. However I have 5 pregnancy tests and a blood test to confirm it!

I hope everyone had great weekends, and I will be back soon with better blog posts! (well anything is better than nothing :)
