Where Have I Been?

Oh around.

We got the rooms all rearranged and whew! A lot of work. But all is done now. Except, the stairwell and the room we are in now need to be painted. The baby's room is on it's way. The always on top of things and over the top in things Kiki, is coming by Friday to put her special touch on the room. Which happens to be the entire bedding collection. I was going to wait and just use a blanket for the baby
but Kiki? Um no, that will not do for her future niece, as she believes it is, or nephew. She choose the most beautiful bedding......how lucky am I? A sister who has great taste and is willing to come over and do that? Oh yea, I scored in the sibling department. Once it is done, I will take some pictures.

The awesome Kiki also insisted on another shower to which I asked that she keep it low key. My sister is all the utmost in party planning. And she did keep it low key..............for her. But to the lay person, it was still magnificent and oh so lovely. Know anyone who would spend hours making their own chocolate molds of pea pods? That would be my sister. It was a wonderful afternoon and I really appreciated all her work. Not to mention that gobs of baby stuff she gathered up for this baby, along with the gift of the bedding. Truly a blessing.

Lastly, my camera has come home to momma! They fixed it and it was under warranty! Yippeee!!!!!! It works and I even took a picture of the kids in the car yesterday after we retrieved it from the FedEx people. Hallelujah.

The pregnancy is wrapping up. A little over three weeks to go. I am at weekly appointments now. Swelling like a flipping sponge. I already have fat feet and now? Just downright scary. No dilation (why did the doctor have to check me? I have a c-section scheduled for goodness sakes.) I will get Emma to take a picture this week (with my camera!!!!!!!!) If I do not post it on here, you will be able to find it on my Tabblo deal. I am afraid I am just scary looking now.

And now........some pictures!!!

YEA, we got the camera and it WORKS! And it was under warranty.

Our room looks.........interesting. So until it is painted, no pictures. Lime green and hot pink walls with neutral bedding.......is beyond eclectic.

So there you go. A big long, picture filled update.

No, of course not. You are just not the Kiki. ; ) And isn't chopped liver patee? See that is all you have to do Fid - find the upswing.

Can anyone ever be anywhere near the Kiki? My guess is no.

Patee is good if made right....

I'll Do It Better In My Next Thirty years

Today is doomsday. At 9:05 a.m on this very day thirty years ago my mother gave birth to me. I have done the "Holy crap, where did the years go?" I have done the "When did *I* get so freaking old?" I have cried and been mad and upset. I have looked at my life and realized it was NOT what I thought it would be at thirty. In both good and bad ways. I have run the gamut, so to speak and frankly now I am worn completely out. I am done. I went through getting old sucks . I spent time reminiscing about Swatch watches from back in the day. I have shed tears over my babies not being babies anymore . I tired to stop thirty from coming and realized that it was inevitable. I even got my friends to realize that we are indeed getting old. So today, as I move on in life and have to start checking a new box on forms, I still stand by my very first post on getting older. I think Tim McGraw has it right. My Next Thirty Years I think I'll take a moment, celebrate my age The en...

It Is Official...

I am now officially a participant in the NaBloPoMo . What is this you ask? It is an alternative to National Novel Writing Month, otherwise known as, NaNoWriMo . The goal of NaNoWriMo is to write a 50,000 word novel during the month of November. Since I lack focus, which some like to call adult ADD, there is no way I could do that. So, enter NaBloPoMo. Besides sounding funnier, it is a much more doable thing for me. The goal of this? Post an entry to my blog every day for the entire month of November. You heard it folks. You will be blessed with some random something from me EVERY DAY for the ENTIRE month of November. I am even on the Official List. I am, really. You can go look. Now you may be asking yourself how you got so lucky. And I can not give you the answer to that. All I can say is that you can look forward to me rambling about basically nothing for the whole month. So sit back and enjoy the ride. Now, if I could only figure out how the hell to put up my button and get it to hy...
