New Developments
Where has Krista been?? What has she been up to this week??
Monday:
Busy. Stressful. Hot outside. We finally turned the A/C on for the 1st time this summer. Thanks, Emily.
Tuesday:
I didn't drink enough water on Monday. I got dehydrated. Lots of folks decided to come to work with the flu this past week. I get sick and that's when the contractions start. I get to go to Triage at the hospital to have them hook me up to all kinds of monitors just to make sure all is well. I got force-fed water and got to take a short nap. The nurses were very nice and I was told that I had a "happy baby". That alone was worth the trip. I pretty much fixed myself after an hour - except for the fever - so I went home and straight to bed. I asked Rick to pick up dinner. Mr. Creative came up with Taco Bell. At least it was grilled chicken tacos. Good gravy.
Tuesday Night:
I woke up at 1:30 in the morning and didn't sleep again.
Wednesday:
I was completely useless at work. I left early and went to bed. I stopped at the grocery store on the way home so I wouldn't have to eat Taco Bell again.
Thursday:
Feeling better. Nearly back to normal. I get the phone call... "I just got approved for a home loan at a great rate. We're going house shopping this weekend!" Gulp. Holy shit. This is great and all, but Rick will be out of town for 20 days when we could potentially be moving. And... if not then... ummmm... the first two weeks of October. There is something that is happening in those first two weeks of October... Ummmm... LIKE A BABY BEING BORN????? I'm sure all will work out, though. I have somebody to pack me up and move me for a low price and a couple of cases of beer. Then I have another somebody to unpack me. Could life be any sweeter?? Well... that's debatable, but hey... you gotta take 'em as the come.
Friday:
Feeling well. I actually negotiated my maternity leave with the Bossman. I got what I wanted. Whew.

Good Gravy? Taco Bell sounds okay.
But moving then having a baby all in one month? I guess it would be best to be moved before it comes though. and you don't need to be lifting ANYTHING! so get the husband to negotiate and orchestrate that one.
Can't wait to meet you next week. ;-)
Moving sucks no matter what you have in tow - a brewing baby or one on the ground.
But I think you should make sure you just get to sit back and direct, with the merest wave of your finger, everything that needs to be done. Yeah. That's it!
