Where to start on the weekend? Well, Friday I took the day off, thought I would get some stuff done before we left - or not. Basically all I got done was can the carrots. 20 pints of carrots. DH is going to try and figure out how to build (I say buy some

I’m tired of my “memory foam” feet (as the girl in class called them last night). It’s just a symptom of the 3rd trimester and the summer weather, but they are exceptionally fat this week. My toes are even starting to swell. The right one is always worse,

Funny story: yesterday I found some tops on sale at Old Navy and knew I'd forget which ones if I didn't send myself the links. So I sent myself an email at my home address with the links. This morning, I had a read receipt from my boss (a man) on the

Okay, so I mentioned red, black, and white fabric for a baby girl's quilt. I originally found the red fabric and am making a sundress out of it for me, but then I thought the fabric was so great, and babies see red, black, and white first, that it would

I have nothing interesting to report. Last night was our first choir rehearsal of the season. The concert is the day before my due date, so I’m just going to practice but sit out the concert. I’ll decide later if I want to do the holiday concert or if

Well, my weekend was eventful for the fact that I got a lot done! My ankles went down some Saturday, and Sunday I had ankle bones again! I think the rain and cooler air helped a lot. I really think the swelling is caused by sitting at work and stress.

It’s finally Friday! I feel good this morning. Last night I hated to start using the body pillow again because I like to snuggle against DH when I sleep, but he said if it helps me sleep to use it because I’d been keeping him up. So I did – I actually

"That's the lump that's 3ft above your a**!" Had to post a quick rant. I called to see if we could cancel the tour tonight, and the lady said we still needed to go because the one at the end of class isn't as extensive. So I called DH, and he got huffy

First off, I resisted the DP yesterday. I figure I’ll be smarter about not eating a chocolate treat with lunch next time I have an appointment scheduled. Class last night was dumb. We went through the whole overview of what parts there are and how we

You don't realize how important the internet is until you don't have it. I can access most stuff at work, but FB is frowned upon, and not having it at home left me unable to load pics. But hubby fixed it, and we are back in business. So here are photos!

Back from the doctor. Ugh. First off, supposedly I’ve gained 8lbs in 2 weeks – I think this is a crock of sh*t. Usually I go first thing in the morning, but today was at 2:30 in the afternoon, that could account for some poundage, as could my swollen

Well, last night didn’t go at all as planned, but I can definitely go with the flow. I picked the rest of the tomatoes when I got home from work, then put my swollen feet up. I was on the couch, and the baby decided to go crazy, with my belly twitching

I am tired and in a freaking out funk, and I hate it. What happened to my sunshine and roses? What to Expect says this is normal, but I don’t like it. Once again last night DH sat on the couch all night (he did help make supper) while I peeled and canned

On the one hand, I feel like we had a productive weekend. On the other, I feel like we didn’t get anything done. Friday night we set up the dehumidifier (I got it at lunch Friday), and it made a huge difference. When we were putting it together, we found

. . . since I've been thinking about this all morning and half of what I wrote probably came out the wrong way. I'm glad ppl want to have a baby shower. I'm glad people care enough to get us stuff. If we had to buy everything ourselves we could get by

I just wrote my mom an email about how I’m worried we won’t get what we need for the baby – that people just keep buying us clothes and not stuff off the registry, which is what we really need. I’m about to lose my freaking mind when I start thinking

While DH and were running all over campus trying to get my new gym pass (really, they could make the whole process so much more efficient if they just tried), my mom called to tell me my dad is in bed with the flu. They don't know yet if it's regular

Yay for a good night’s sleep! I don’t understand what factors have been different between my bad nights and my good nights, but I love good sleep! I actually got some things done last night. We made hamburgers, squash, and fresh sliced tomato for supper.

Once again, I didn’t sleep well last night. The room just felt muggy, the sheets felt sticky and yucky, and I couldn’t get comfortable. It was raining, so it should have helped cool down the nice breeze coming in with the fan, but it didn’t do much for

I feel much better this morning. Somehow I slept great last night and am now able to function like a human being. Basically all we did last night was go eat at the local Mexican restaurant and go grocery shopping. DH thought the sweat suit was too small,

Of course, I'm sure my hubby would disagree. I felt so yucky at lunch, but made myself go to Kmart to get the travel wipes case for $1.09 plus tax (I'm going to try and embellish one like I've seen on Amazon and Etsy for sale), and I ended up spending

I am so tired my brain is not working. I have lots to do but haven't done much of anything this morning at work. It was a fun weekend, but very draining for me, and I am wishing I could just spend the day on the couch watching bad daytime TV to recoup.

We’re leaving this afternoon to visit our friends! I’m excited. For some reason I keep thinking I’ve forgotten to pack something important, but I can’t think what. It’s just going to be so hard to concentrate until 3pm. DH told me last night he wanted

Well, I just got back from my doctor’s appointment. The orange drink wasn’t that bad, and I didn’t feel nauseous or anything. And the nurse was able to get me to bleed on the first stick, so that was good (I can be a hard bleeder). The baby’s heartbeat

More random conglomerations of thoughts . . . Lately people have been talking about how I’m just glowing and am so cute (I do admit I feel fairly cute in clothes, just fugly when I’m checking myself out in the bathroom mirror before showering). What they

Something exciting! I got promoted! You know I have been wondering about this for a while and couldn't figure out why I hadn't been, well it's finally my turn! My supervisor told me this morning. This will move me up a pay grade, so my paychecks will

It’s already August! I can’t believe how the time is flying. We had a good weekend. Saturday I cleaned the living room – vacuumed, dusted, cleaned out the magazine rack, cleaned out my work bag, put away the shoes by the door, cleaned off the coffee table.
