Popped in real quick to update my journal for yesterday Day One OP!!!! Thought I'd take a peek at what's up here. Sounds like everyone (except LA ) is doing great .
I have the day off, so I'm catching up on stuff. We have an appraiser coming this am, and then I've got to go shopping, plus I'm helping at the church this pm. Hmm...doesn't sound like much of a day off....
I bought the other items I needed for the party & then dh took me shopping for my birthday and out to dinner (he will be gone on the actual day so we celebrated early). I've got tons of work to do today for the painter since I will be gone all weekend.
Lauren - when I looked at swatches with the painter I decided against green. I have a taupe headboard made of fabric, like ultrasuede and the green looked bad with it. So I picked a taupe color, a shade lighter than I'm doing in the rest of the house. We needed to change it yesterday because she started putting it on the walls and it is too light. It looked so close to what I already have. So I picked a new shade yesterday - cinnamon ash - maybe a little bit of a rosy taupe.
Liz - what is the new journal like? I will have to check it out when I have time. ~ sorry about the gain, probably just tom.
Tech - I am having so much fun doing the stuff for this party that I don't want to do anything else! ~ good luck with ww. Yeah op!
RR - hope you are doing okay in the stormy weather.
La - sorry about your accident. ~ hooray on the 3 pounds!
Karen - the dreaming and preparing stage is so fun!
Hi all. I had to go to the doctor for the history and physical portion of the exams. Why they can't do it all at once I can't figure out. It's a good thing though 'cause I started bleeding this morning. Everything is still OK. I have a much cuter picture now. You can actually see Peanuts head and bottom in this one!! At least I picked a day when I already had an appointment. Now I'm banned from baths, heavy lifting and FEEP for a whole month. I told the doctor that hopefully I was getting all the problems over in one week!!
Karen--U take care of yourself!!How many weeks are U now???
Speaking of the crib--the one I got was $649 but on sale for $429.00..I couldnt pass it up....I justify it because my friend is giving me a swing, carseat, clothes, breast pump etc etc!!!!Keep us posted on what is happening with U....
The storm has gone but now it is just clean up!!!We lucked out on this one!!!!
RR- I think the storm is making it's way up here. We're supposed to get up to 4" of rain tomorrow and lots of wind.
Karen- Hope everything's OK. Don't forget, I spotted through most of my 1st tri. It was just an irritated cervix. Are you gonna scan the pic and post it?!
Hi again. I'm at school. I'm supposed to be programming. I still haven't figured out where to start. DH helped me with the problem I was having on Tues, thank goodness. I am supposed to be writing a shopping chart module. I haven't the faintest idea where to start .
RR: I am now officially nine weeks pg. I have a LONG way to go yet. Hope you didn't have too much damage from the storm.
Lauren: I didn't remember about you and spotting. I'm just glad that it happened today. DH hasn't seen this picture yet, I can't wait to get home and show it to him. I have to leave for class before he gets home. I was going to get him to scan it to send to my parents so I will see if I can figure out how to post it. Is yours posted here somewhere? Did I miss it?
OK, guess I better go do a better job of pretending to work!! Hope everyone is having a good evening.
Just a quick post to tell everyone to have a good weekend. Do something nice for yourself.
I'm hoping to get lots of exercise by helping a good friend move to his new house on Saturday (he's in a wheelchair so everyone's joining in to help him out). Sunday I want to go rollerblading -- even if it's just for a half hour. Besides that, no other plans.
Hi all. Having a lazy evening at home watching tv and playing on the 'puter. DH caught me trying to look at a prego website and I got in trouble. I'm still banned .
Lauren: Petey looks good to me!! DH scanned Peanut's picture but I haven't gotten it posted anywhere yet. Soon hopefully.
Yesterday was not so good OP, but not as bad as previous weeks, so I'll take it and move on. It's the trend that's important as my WW leader says and mines going in the right direction.
I worked the hand car (old railroad piece) at work yesterday and man am I sore today . I knew when I was doing it yeasterday that I would be but the reality bites.
We're going on a hayride tonight w/church. It should be a lot of fun and our pastor is dieting and she's doing a main dish so it shouldn't be too bad pts wise. Hopefully. Then tomorrow we're going to K's sisters so hopefully I'll do OK there to.
Karen - why are you banned from PG sights? I must have missed it.
RR - hope you're drying out OK. We got rain yesterday from the storm but nothing like you .
LBH - Hope you didn't get drowned yesterday.
LA - Good luck with this move .
Rabbit - You probably won't see this until you get back, but, good luck with the party .
Liz - have fun helping your friend move and rollerblading.
Hello!!! Hope everyone is doing ok!!The weather is beautiful!!Cool and nice!!!I have been trying to get the nursery up to par since I will be full term in 9 weeks..U just never know when Ms Priss wants to come visit with us!!!
Tech--It is a good soreness!!!Hope it is better today!!!Have fun on the hayride!!!
Well, it's gorgeous today here too!! Right now it's 70, going up to 77 and windy. DH has a firemen's parade today, and I'm going to hit some garage sales with my friend...what a perfect day for it!
Karen- What is DH being soo paranoid about?? Just tell him you're trying to get as educated as possible! If you sign up at Babycenter.com, they'll send you an email every week telling you what your body and the baby are doing each week! About.com has something similar.
RR- Wow, 9 weeks!! Are you going every 2 wks. now? You'll have to take pics of the nursery and post them for us!
Tech- The hayride sounds like fun! I would love to go on one, but DH says we'll wait til next year and bring Petey. Maybe get some mineral ice for the sore muscles.
Hi all. We had a productive day today. Got some shopping done at Cosco and worked in the yard this afternoon. Took advantage of the soft ground from all the rain and weeded two of the flower beds. Boy, did they need it. I was very lazy this summer. There were also these big things growing that I didn't know if they were flowers or not (from prev owners). They try to come up every year so I let them this year. Turns out they were just humongous weeds. They grew over 5'!
Lauren: DH and the Doctor both banned me from the web sites 'cause last weekend I had convinced myself that I was having an ectopic pregnancy from the pain. If it hadn't lasted so long, so consistently I wouldn't have, but they didn't get that part!! Hope you had fun at the garage sales.
RR: Wow, what fun! Getting the nursery ready. MIL doesn't want me to bring anything for the baby into the house until it's here! I don't think I can do that. I will wait a good while, but I want the room ready BEFORE I have the baby. I want to come home with nothing to worry about.
I think I'm going to stretch out on the couch and rest my aching back!! Hope ya'll are having a great weekend.
