Work was at a two hour delay.
I was going to try to sleep an extra hour, but Kid woke up all bright and chipper. So I used the time to be productive. And play trains.
I left my house early to give myself plenty of time to get to work and ended up 15 minutes late. I stopped to push two people out of heavy snow. I should have put on more deodorant.
Yikes partiallysunny! I hope the drive home is better than that.
doglove congrats! I'm so excited for you and Buddy.
I got a decent night's sleep after doing an awesome yoga class, so I feel pretty good today. Plus I stopped at the grocery store last night and bought a good amount of food. Not all of it is the healthiest stuff, but I'm still looking forward to it.
My mom finally guilt-tripped me about not accepting her FB friend request. She said it would be the only way to see baby pictures, like I'm incapable of using email or Photobucket. I shut her down and said I didn't want to mix family with my friend activity. I've seen way too many over-involved moms/grandmas on my friends' FB. She wasn't happy. I don't care.
We visited another daycare last night and I felt a lot better. There were lots of similarities to the first one (because, really, how many ways can you take care of an infant?) but the environment felt warmer. I really liked the director and how diverse the classes were. I know that's not really a concern at infant stage, but it was still nice to see. We have one more to visit on Friday and then we'll need to make a decision.
I'm actually feeling really good! A little hip pain this morning, but I walked it out. The fatigue seems to be making a comeback lately - I'm assuming a growth spurt is underway (hence why I went from flab to bump status last weekend). Bowies Junior has been kicking/jabbing a lot since then too.

I have a coffee date tonight, very informal and probably only about an hour since I have to pick up DS. I know it's not a REAL date, but guys, I'm a little nervous.

I think I'm having the same growth-spurt fatigue! Last night I totally crashed on the couch before 9pm for the first time since back in 1st tri, and my bump is also looking noticeably bigger.
Today I'm just trying to stay awake long enough to get some work done.
starrieskies, is coffee with dirty dream guy?!? I'm excited for you! I don't think you should be nervous though, you're gorgeous and funny and awesome and if he doesn't see that then he is dumb.

Yep, that's the one. I figured it would be a good way to ease into the idea of actually dating since we used to know each other. Plus he's incredibly attractive to me and I think he digs me too.
Yay for good daycares, adopting adorable doggies and first date butterflies. Yuck to pregnancy fatigue, not enough deoderant (but awesome for being a renegade car rescuer) and sick guts. I think I got everyone covered there.
I had the best night's sleep in a long time last night. The stupid ass secretary at the lawyer sent stuff to my house instead of my work. STBXH got the mail before I got home. He's definitely way out of denial now.
He asked me about it, I told him what's up (again), he asked if I was sure (oh hell yes), reacted as I thought he would (got sad, tried bargaining, then got angry and said some nasty stuff) and then he left for a few hours. He came back right at DS' bedtime and had cooled off. We didn't talk at all last night. This morning we both had a delay at work. So we took DS down to my mom's and went back home and had it out. He got nasty and I fired right back. And now it's all good. I mean, we're still getting divorced (breathe people, I'm not that crazy), but we're going to stay friends and make DS the priority. H is starting to come around... he was saying how this will open up some time for him to get back in his band, go hunting and all that stuff.
Chirp, your attitude about everything has been so impressive. You're calm and taking everything in stride with a hefty dose of humor.
Humor is my thing. If nothing else, I can make people laugh. I don't tell jokes or anything. I'm just goofy, quirky and find the strangest things to be funny.
That buffalo pic is still cracking me up. Mostly because I hear the "mmhmm I heard that" in Morgan Freeman's voice.
