We went to the Ultra Sound place the other day and found out that we are having a baby boy. The Ultra Sound was amazing, we could see the baby from all different angles and even the skeletal structure. I enjoyed watching the child kick and move about. We have been informed that it is in the 90th percentile for size however its early days. I wanted to know what sex it was to assist in naming and to be prepared as possible.
I have been looking for extra work in the area and my preference has been to work in the Community Services sector. There doesn't seem to be many vacancies at the moment though one organization who recruits internally has offered the possibility for me to do some volunteer work to get a foot in the door. I am of the impression that they recruit from those that they know fit their organizational culture, this will give me an opportunity to see if I do fit and to make the most of the contacts.
Justene has been quite active since arriving, she has been participating in womens groups which have done belly dancing, tai chi, and included women's rights speakers, she has also been going to yoga and participating in an art group.
In my last post I mentioned going over to a property for meditation and getting to know people, well that evening went really well. We arrived a bit late, due to not having a definite starting time and found a number of people lying on the art gallery floor whilst other people played obscure musical instruments. We joined them and I enjoyed the experience. I am not one for such passive meditation nor do I get off on the weirdness of just lying around however the music was amazing it, was like listening to an album in 3D made up of alien instruments. After the meditation time we had dinner with about 8 others. The meal and company was enjoyable and I plan on getting to know them more.
Last night we went to a local restaurant with Bob and Vivian to celebrate their 62 wedding anniversary.
The weather has been quite rainy lately as we had a cyclone off the coast and the edges of the cyclone have been lingering around.
