Well, I am finally online again (I was using my phone the last two days). I don't know if any of my other East Coast girls got hit with that storm yesterday, but we got slammed. We just got power back an hour ago (it was out for almost 30 hours). Last night was rough - I got home at 4, dodging the falling tree branches and power lines, DH didn't get home until after midnight (mandatory overtime). He ate Wendy's by candlelight while I was snuggled under a bunch of covers with the dog (it was about 50 degrees in the house). Unfortunately when the power goes out, we're screwed in all ways. No water, no heat, nothing. They were saying we weren't getting anything back until Wednesday, which had me freaked out since that's the day we leave for vacation. There was so much I hadn't done yet because I was PLANNING on doing it this weekend. :growl:
We also had the water heater go on us Friday night - so we have no hot water anyway. Once DH gets that fixed (replacement one is in the basement, ready to go, just have to switch it over), I can start CLEANING.
I have dishes to do, the bathroom to clean, the kitchen to mop. I cleaned out the fridge Thursday (thank goodness, since all the food pretty much is bad now anyway - less to get rid of). Still have to pack (won't take me long). Tuesday I took off of work, so I have the whole day, but I want to get a very overdue haircut and a pedicure, so I'll see what kind of time I can make for myself. I haven't had a pedicure in MONTHS, and am dying for one. Especially since we're going to SoCal, I know I'll be wearing sandals.
Otherwise, feeling pretty good. DH and I are getting back into finally. Was a once every couple week occurrence since we got PG. Now that second tri is halfway gone, the libido is crazy.
Still haven't gained any weight. Been steady since the MD put me on the Zofran. No more nausea (knock wood) for the last couple weeks. Don't know if it's kicks I'm feeling, or what...nothing that jumps out at me and says "Ooh, she's moving." I guess we'll see in next few weeks. DEFINITELY showing. Can't hide anything. Broke down and went to Motherhood on Monday and bought two pairs of jeans, a pair of khaki pants for work, and four tshirts. Once we get back from vacation, I'll hit them for sweaters (especially if our winter is going to be this crazy).
Hope you all had a good weekend. I won't be around much till after the 8th or so, since I'll be on vacation.
