Our Indian summer ended just according to the calendar: after the 23th it was over with the light jackets and summer-shoes. But you still got to love autumn for it's riches. 

Life here is quite calm at the moment. Still sewing something, here and there putting stuff away or getting it out. It's calm. Tries to be.

But an advice for all the pregnant ladies : lie about your due date, lie about it early on. Then you won't get calls form people (who might call you otherwise twice a year) asking questions as "are you're done yet", or "when will you".  Lie to your friends and family (not the dad, of course :)). Just push the date with a satisfied heart two-three weeks ahead. I dearly regret not doing it this time.

Curiosity killed the cat, as the saying goes, but i can say, that it can taint a friendship for a while. Or at least, the person involved will be stressed and annoyed and usually friends don't have that as a goal, right?

However, when you're like suffering form not knowing and can't live otherwise at all, may there be whatever reason, then don't call the pregnant lady, but some other friend, who might be closer (and if they don't know, then it hasn't happened yet) or the spouse.

For the sake of vanilla- ice-cream, it'll happen, when it happens!
