Morning ladies.
Amber, I can't even imagine what you're going through. That sounds terrible. Soon your baby will be born and this will all be a thing of the past. That's what I try to keep telling myself. Easier said than done, I know. I'll be thinking of you and sending you positive thoughts.
Krissy, hey! I got hot flashes and couldn't sleep worth a damn with this pregnancy. All good signs if you ask me! Although it may not seem like it at the moment... Sucks you have to go back to work.
Nicole, Awesome news on the garage sales. There are usually a lot in our neighborhood. I've never actually stopped and got out and looked though. A couple of weekends ago there was one yard sale and they have just about every piece of play ground equipment you could think of. I was tempted to stop and see what they were asking for some pieces, but my red flag went up saying Samuel would want to play on it all and not leave, so I would HAVE to buy it. Needless to say, we kept driving.
Libby, that's good you guys are tag teaming. Seems only logical now that you're nearing the end. Some good news... Samuel went through the same exact thing! The only thing that seriously worked for us, was to cut out his naps. I don't put him down for one anymore. If he wants to take one, I like him fall asleep on his own on the couch, floor, car, what not. But I never let him sleep more than an hour. If when I wake him up and he's still tired, then I will let him sleep, but since doing that he now sleeps through the night and if he wakes up, he goes back to sleep on his own. LOL he's really started talking in his sleep, it cracks me up because he REALLY rambles and sounds so serious, whoever he is talking to.
Hi to all the other ladies!!!
AFM, I had a pretty boring weekend. Meaning I didn't do much of anything "fun". Saturday, I spent the entire day cleaning. I mean REALLY cleaning. I sat on my bathroom floor and organized my entire sink cabinet. I got rid of a bunch of crap that some how always migrates to the bathroom. I reorganized our hall closet. Got my laundry room cleaned and organized. Then I sat down and my hip started killing me. I've noticed if I keep moving it doesn't bother me as much, but when I sit down oh man, it's killer. So, while doing all of that, Dan got half his paper written, took a break and mowed the lawns. And that was Saturday. Sunday, Dan finished his paper. I was able to talk Dan into going to lowes and buying flowers and mulch for the front planter. I wish I had taken a before picture. It was covered in about 75 daffodil plants. No flowers, just the left over green crap. Our original plan was to dig up the bulbs and move them, well... They are like 3 feet in the ground!!! So, we just hacked down the greens and went to town. We'll tackle the bulbs next year.
Next project is that planter box under the bay window. That thing is a freakin' mess! We've got some flag stone brick looking stuff though. So, we're going to build a small wall with that, rip out all the dumb flowers that are in there now and put in flowering bushes/shrubs. When I say "we're" I really mean Dan. I'm just going to stand there and "suggest" what to do.
Today, I am super sore and stiff though. It was so worth it all though to get our yard looking nice before Sara gets here. I kinda want to get the back done before she gets here too! Only because once she's here I wont have any motivation or drive to do a damn thing!
