Hmmmmm.....

Well, not sure what to write about, so I will start, and then usually when I start, I can get myself going on one rant or another so we will see where this goes. I find these blogs interesting, but also a bit fake, because you still have to be politically correct because it's public domain, and anybody could supposedly stumble upon it, so you can't write scathing paragraphs on people's character flaws. Sometimes those can be fun. I'm not sure what I would do if I stumbled upon one written about me though...probably wouldn't be as fun. We all tend to think we're mainly perfect...a few minor flaws here or there, but pretty darn close to angelic...OTHER people though, MAN do they have things to work on...:) Jesse is not that great to gossip with...yes people, I will admit I do enjoy a little gossip session every once and awhile. And anyone who says they don't is LYING. YOU ARE LYING!! So anyway, when I get around another female companion who I know well, it is such a treat to be able to talk GIRL TALK! Trying to talk girl talk to Jesse is like beating your head against a brick wall. It is literally that hard. He got off the phone with his parents the other night, and they probably talked for 45 minutes, and so I wanted to know all the news and what they had talked about and he couldn't think of a single thing. That is a man for you. :) I think God made us so different on purpose because we must balance each other out. If Jesse was as emotional as me we would have a problem.

Hmmm, well I could write out all my latest pregnancy aches and pains, but that might get boring, so I'll just say the main one....MY BACK HURTS!! GRRRRRR. Irritating to say the least. Sometimes it gets so bad it dosen't matter if I'm standing, sitting, laying, whatever. It just hurts!! *Sigh* And right when I thought pregnancy was going to be a breeze finally after hating food for 3 months, now it's a whole nother round of icky things. I'm still amazed though, that God has given me this opportunity and ability to have a baby. It is pretty cool!! But man, the symptoms are not always so cool. Someday when she complains about putting the dishes away, I'll say, COOL IT HONEY, you owe me BIG time for all the pains you caused me!! Haha. I watched a birthing story today on TV, which everyone tells me not to watch, but I still do anyway, and then I always cry at the end. I'm such a suck. :) I'm excited to see my baby for the first time.

Well, anyhoo, I made perogies for supper, and my kitchen is still a mess, so I guess I could go attempt to clean it all up. My cat is such a goober. She comes in here, crouches on the floor, and stares at the wall. HAHA!! Till next time.....

Odds and Ends

It is Friday...my day off before working the weekend, so I had some time to paint my baby room again. I had originally painted it yellow, which turned into this horrible shade of green, so I redid it in purple. I love it!! It's so girly and feminine. My cat kept me company most of the afternoon. She sprawled out on the floor and then swiped at me with her paw every time I walked past. I had to laugh. It was pretty cute. I feel like the baby stuff is all coming together finally....what with the room painted, the crib on the way, and all my little clothes hung up in the closet. We were in Calgary for the week, and while Jesse's Mom was out for her run in the morning, she ran past a garage sale selling all baby stuff. So she said she ran home as FAST as she could, and came and woke us up...it was before 9, and we raced over there, and I got a swing, high chair, bouncy chair, and exersaucer all for the grand total of 90 dollers. YUP!!! Pretty excited about that. And the kicker is, it all looks brand new. And I'm not just saying that. I saw the exact same exersaucer the next day at The Bay, and it was retailing for 99.99, so once again, I reiterate my point...why buy things like that new!!!! There is such an advantage though, when you garage sale in huge cities....so many more people selling things, and also a lot more well off people. Believe me, not a lot of people living in Jesse's parents community would be buying things at garage sales!! So that is good for me, because I get the cast offs for super cheap! So I was very happy that Jesse's Mom went running that morning!

It is very hot here today. I have all the lights off, and the blinds closed, and am trying to avoid going outside at least until the evening. The baby was pretty active this morning....turning and kicking, and who knows what all in there, but now I guess it is sleepy time. I have 15 weeks left, which still sounds like quite a bit, but I guess not, considering I started at 40! I know it will go by fast. I have a flight booked home for September 25th, so I will get to spend a couple of weeks with my family. Then Jesse will drive down, and spend some time as well, and then take me home. I alm looking forward to that. Well, I am thirsty, and hot, so I am going to go get myself a drink, and try to think of something to keep myself occupied the rest of the afternoon......:)
