Hey Donna darling!
If you need a rousing chorus of "Gonna Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair", you just let me know.
In my current state of "squirrel on speed" energy levels, I'll stage it for you with a kick line of preggos 100 girls strong!
So, my husband started back at work today after his vacation (we were supposed to be in Africa for the last few weeks, but got pregs instead, so he had some time on his hands. We did spend a week in the mountains, visiting my parents, then he had a boy vacation of playing his favourite playstation stuff and not having to do too many chores! Men can be dumb, but sometimes they are also just very cute and easy to please!). This back to work thing is significant because he is a paramedic and works awful shift hours, and as we share a car, I have to be up with him to drive, so that I can get to work, too. This might just be the factor that breaks the demonic energy spell that I am still under. I was up at 5:30 am, and I'll be working all day, then heading to dress rehearsal at the Zoo and working there until 10pm, only to return home and do the whole thing again tomorrow. This would make me pretty tired if I wasn't pregnant, so I am nervously examining myself for signs of collapse. So far, ridiculously good health and buoyant energy. I'm getting spooked.
Btw, I had blood tests come back showing that I had low platelet levels. My clinic said that it could just be a one-off, as we can get weird random readings of stuff when preg, but I have to go in for further testing every 4 weeks until delivery (huge pain in ass - yesterday, I sat in the clinic for an hour and a half). Has anyone ever heard of this low platelet thing? Other than affecting clotting, what could it signify? My instinct is to google, but I am heeding the warnings from everyone not to do that.
Anyway, that's the squirrelly report from Calgary today.
I have to find time to post nursery and stroller deal of the year pics, soon.
