Abba costumes and never take your eyes off a multi!

Filed under: Daily life

Today I have been busy sewing and painting Abba costumes for Starstruck. I’m unsure as to how I got roped in, with mum, to sew 9 Abba outfits and 8 skirts and ties but I have done two so far with another six items to go. They have to be ready by this Friday and while Mum is surging ahead, I have only just dipped my toe. Actually, I think I made quite a splash!!! I am quite proud of the pussycat dresses that I made today and Immy is having a tough time choosing which one she wants to claim as her own. That makes me feel great. I’m not so hot at the sewing but I LOVE the painting.

It was very good therapy for a midwife recovering from her first catch in three years!

Yep, this little midwife went to work on Wednesday night and at about 5am found herself with a 4th time mum in birthing suite. I wasn’t rostered on to be in delivery. I thought she had a while to go when she presented at our door. She was very quiet. I started doing the regular observations that we do when a lady comes in. Blood pressure, urine, foetal heart sounds… but before I could palpate two contractions, she started to push!!! I hit the buzzer for help and before I knew it I had my gloves on and a beautiful baby boy had come into the world!

Oh, I can’t tell you how amazing it is to be the first person to place your hands on new life! I was shaking and crying - so much so that the father of the baby thought it was my first time at a birth!!

It had been a while. So, so wonderfully amazing.

When I was a student a very wise midwife once told me ‘never take your eyes off a multi’ ( a lady who has had more than one baby). I have learnt my lesson well over the years. I was so excited, exillerated, honoured. I sent David a message but got no response ( he was bust with his own kind of night duty dramas at home) so when I left work I phoned my friend Carolyn. I knew she would be happy for me and would share in my excitement. That adrenalin got me through most of the day without feeling tired.

 

Just wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS to my dear friend Carolyn on receiving the honour of Midwife of the Year! Very much deserved!

  1. Hi there! I’ve been wanting to get myself one of those ABBA catsuits for a long time. You did a good work, your cat only needs the beads to be perfect. I just wanted to ask… Do you know where can I get the pattern for the dress? I would like to make one (or maybe the two of them) for myself.

  13. The “dogs” are dead:::”Elite” who ruined Planet Earth and others who entered clone hosting and were eventually reincarnated.
    And they’re still incurring evil from their prior life(ves).
    Junior Seau is a good example::The real, a 20-something in her next life, making progress and the gods allow the fake to committ suicide.
    AND close the restaurant.
    Anyone the gods use or role play telepathically they have a legacy of hurting others, the more they hurt the more eggregious in history their legacy.

    The god’s goal is to create the freedom necessary to justify employing their strategy. German 5th century invasion enabled WWII, Moorish invasion of Italy justified black misery.
    They them have the freedom to employ this strategy.

    There was a very real perception that bi-racial was much worse for the white than it was for the person of color. The liberal culture, which was designed and promoted with the god’s tools to achieve their Apocalyptic goals, screamed racism when there was a very reasonable explanation for this reality::::
    In this white punishment known as the United States the person of color has already adopted the disfavors/temptations intended for another race. But by associating/mating with a person of color the white is newly adopting the disfavors of another culture.
    And this is the reason why people of color are not welcome in the United States. The gods control everything:::The perception they want to create, the thoughts they want you to have.
    People of color can’t recover from absorbing the temptations from two cultures. And why they become more and more like so many blacks in America:::Veterans at absorbing the temptations of two cultures.
    To further illustrate this is why California’s educational system/funding was ranked #1 when California was white:::Education being the basis of the affluent economic system. Now even public higher education has become unaffordable.

    The gods placed us all into our own corners of the globe. As such for thousands of years we spent time and reproduced with out own kind.
    This is why mobilty/travel, biracial unions/offspring and partaking of other cultures is a sin::::
    Each has it’s own elements of disfavor, and by experiencing other cultures you are being exposed to these disfavors, which if people may adopt will make their state even worse than prior.
    The United States has been considered a “melting pot” where rejects from around the world were sent when kicked out of their motherland.
    Remember, this concept of cultural diversity is an element of the liberal platform the gods used to promote societal decay, revealed on the map with the “beast” that is the SanFranciscoBayArea and the spread of social deterioration that spread to the rest of the country and eventually to the entire globe.

    As with so many things in this life “less is more”. Sex is one of those things. They used the liberal age to promote casual “free” sex intentionally::Combined with “women’s lib” and their initiation into the “trenches” of the workplace as well as other issues like alcohol consumption the people experienced a mass masculinization of the females.
    The gods use sex as temptation. This is why the most disfavored among us are preoccupied with it. While some may feel being well-endowed is a sign of favor the truth is just the opposite. And often the result is misogyny, a belittling of the favored gender, and stagnation of the people as a whole.
    Less is more. When young women experience passing thoughts which say you’re doing something wrong instead of fighting or dismissing the thought you should heed the warning. Sadly in today’s world too many experience prolonged periods of promiscuity in their lives, whereas if married by 15 like throughout human history this disfavor was avoided.
    Don’t forget:::It is children who ascend into heaven, and the absence of sexual activity is one reason. Their general innocence is another, which should help you see the destructive nature of adult life in today’s society.

    Ronald Reagan spent the communist block into submission with defense buildup, and in the process increased the National debt from $1 trillion in 1980 to $6 trillion when he left office.
    W charged both the Iraq and Afghanistan wars to the national debt, honest numbers to come.
    The gods used W to initiate the “Great Recession” with deliberate legislation/regulation changes, allowing the sub-prime fiasco and corporate irresponsibility/criminal behavior which led to the multi-trillion dollar stimulous package, pocketted by Republican friends and donors::::$5 trillion charged to the National credit card.
    This corruption is one element of evil in the party of good. War mongering is another.
    Damned if you do, Damned if you don’t::::With the Democrats you subscribe to social decay via liberlism, which WILL lead to the Apocalypse. Republicans are being used by the gods to bankrupt the United States, ultimately motivating people to the point of “desperation prayer” once anarchy presides::::Punishment designed to correct your behavior.

    The gods behave monsterously in the course of managing Planet Earth but they demand people be good if you are to have a chance to ascend in a future life.
    Not only is doing the right things important (praying, attoning for your sins, thinking the right way:::accepting humility, modesty, vulnerability), so is avoiding the wrong things important as well:::”Go and sin no more”.
