4monthaversary

Today's my grandfather's birthday, the 4th anniversary of my marriage to Dan and a glucose test at 3pm. Jake is going to the movies with Emma, the heat outside is killer, Trev and Kendallpops are at camp suffering in it. It seems like there's so much going on right now I can't keep up. Dan's dad has surgery coming up, mom's coworker's grandbaby was delivered and died 3 hours later (it was due when our baby is...sucks). The basement renovation has started but is going slowly. Harry Potter is still alive but I'm only 200 pages into the book so don't tell me who dies! I get to hang out w/ Tree tomorrow afternoon which is great since I haven't seen her, Jaybird or the new rooms in their house in eons and I hate that. Manda's getting married and I get to go help her party away her bacheloretteness next weekend. (read: designated driver). Work is slow, home is messy. Life is good. I promise to come up with better content and format for the next entry I write.

3rd trimester

I'm sitting here at my work desk with my makeup spread out all around. I haven't yet found the energy to put it on and it's only 1:51pm, so why the rush, right? I'll get to it eventually. It seems like lately no matter what I do, no matter how fast I work or how much I complain to the family to help...nothing's done and I need stuff done. My work work is done, but the house stuff is so not. It's put a huge damper on my mood and I'm sure there's a trickle down affect on the kids and Dan. I just want stuff to look nice, is that too much to ask? We're tripping over each other...the basement being finished will remedy that, so why am I being such a bitch while I wait?

We have 10 more weeks til the baby comes. She's still kicking like a field goal kicker and I can't wait to see her. Being pregnant has been really fun, I can't believe it's almost over. I know I'll miss it, but I'll miss it with a beer in my hand and hopefully wearing size 12 jeans instead of size humongous. She's got tons of clothes now. I've even gotten them washed and stored, just waiting for her to have her own room instead of my womb. (har!).

This weekend Trev and Kendall leave for camp. It's Kendall's first time going to Westview and I'm just positive she'll love it. I still feel weird letting her go though...she's just so tiny. What if I miss her too much? I wonder if they let homesick parents come get their kids?

We got a new kitten from Alex's mom. Her name used to be Houdini but you know this family. We can't let things have a normal name. The kitten's name is now Kooky Corndog. That's right. Kooky for short? I don't know because so far I just call her "kitty". I'm afraid kooky corndog just doesn't seem like a fitting name for the little sweetheart.

OK time to wrap this up and get my makeup on. Actually, I just have one more hour to work, so why bother, right? Perfect.
