What's on my mind

1:21 PM Posted In , , , , , , , Edit This 0 Comments »
A. Last night I woke up around 3 am with the WORST pain in my left hip.  At first I thought I just laid on one side too long or laid on it wrong.  So I tried to turn over and oh my… ouchie momma!  Then I decided to get up and holy moses.  I’m assuming it was a Charlie horse in my hip but I have no idea.  It seemed to last forever but probably only lasted like 5 minutes.  Poor Phil was woken up by it.  I sure hope that doesn’t happen again.  It was worse than the Charlie horses in my calf and lasted longer too. 

B. 7 more work days and then I have 5 days off in a row.  Amen to that!  I’m in need of a vacation from this joint!  Everyone needs to get away from time to time and I definitely do.  Phil and I were going to do something fun together but his stupid new boss denied his vacation request.  I mean seriously… there was no reason for her to deny his request.  So I don’t have any fun plans but there is a lot I need to get done so I’m sure I’ll use the time to get stuff done in Baby K’s room and around the house.  I also need to make an Ikea trip (again) so I’ll have plenty of stuff to do.  It will be a nice break from work before the baby comes. 

C. I have less than 3 months until I get to meet Baby K.  Crazy!  This pregnancy is seriously flying by the seat of my pants.  I am pretty sure that he won’t be coming early but in case he does I’ll meet him in roughly 2 ½-3 months.  :)  I can’t wait!!!!!! 

D. I want to give this baby a name.  I'm set on a name that we both really like and we will most likely be using.  However, my hubby thinks we need to wait and see if anything better comes along.  That's not how I roll.  I'm a planner.  I like to get shit done well before it's due.  I would like this baby to have a name so I can start calling him by his name now and there's one project in his nursery that I can't do until we decide on a name.  So, to be fair I told the hubby that I'll wait until the baby shower and by then I want us to decide on his name.  That gives him another month and a half to come up with anything different and gives me at least a month before he's here to have his name set.  I think that's a decent compromise.  Seriously... it's driving me nuts knowing we have an awesome name and just haven't 100% decided on it. 

E. I miss my husband.  He was gone all weekend at his mom’s house helping her put on a new roof so I barely saw him.  But he came home a little early last night, around 7-7:30ish so we could spend a wee bit of time together before I went to bed.  That was a nice surprise.  I was feeling rather lonely yesterday.  He's been working rather hard this whole summer.  It's always one project after the other and we barely do anything together.  Lots of important projects to go...  :(


F. I have heartburn.  The pills the doc prescribed to me worked really good at first and I didn't get any heartburn.  Lately it's been creeping back up on me and seems to be getting worse and worse.  The pills do help because it's still not as bad as it was but it's getting worse again.  Poo...  Makes me wonder if my body is getting use to the pills and now they aren't working?  Who knows...  That's just my mind wondering off.


That is all for now.

I have lots of thoughts today, many of which I cannot write about because they would just get me in trouble. So, let’s just write about the safe topics.

- It’s 70 degrees outside right now and all I want to do is be outside. 70 degrees for March is awesome and I wish I could fully enjoy it. Instead I’m working until 5. At least I’ll have a little bit of time before the sun goes down and I can drive home with the moon roof open.

- I have decided to color my hair again (see last post). Even after talking about it with friends (since none of them know how to comment on a blog ;)) I still wasn’t sure which way to go. But this morning it hit me. I looked into the mirror and said “ugh, gross”. My hair looks like crap because it is in desperate need of a haircut and I just really want to love my hair again and I’m not going to be happy with this “going natural” color. It just looks gross and dingy. So I’ll be forking over the money and dying it. I feel more comfortable waiting to dye it until after my first trimester is over and I’ll be 14 weeks on the 25th. So, end of March comes my new hairdo! I can’t wait.

- The Hunger Games comes out next Friday and I’m very very excited to go see it. I’m even more excited because we are making a girls night out of it and going out for dinner before the movie. It’s so nice to get out of the house and do something fun! Maybe I’ll read the first book again before the movie to tide me over until then.

- My mom is coming to visit this weekend and is staying at my house. I’m excited to see her but I wish I had more stuff I needed help with. She is very excited to start helping me with the baby’s room, etc. but I can’t do anything at this point since I don’t know the sex yet. So, hopefully I can find other projects that I need her help on. She is very crafty.

- I would like a new phone. Somehow I scratched the so called “scratch resistant” surface and now it bugs me. It’s just a little tiny scratch but I can’t stop staring at it each time I use my phone. Annoying. And I can’t get a new phone until October. Boo… that’s just some of my complaining.

- Phil and I slowly (very slowly) started the name game for Baby K. I have listed probably 10-15 names (3 of which I’m in love with) and he says yuck to each and every one of them. So, I told him I’m sick of him saying yuck to my names so he needs to look at the book and come up with a list. I’m prepared for a very boring list with names like Steve or Bob. That’s not going to happen.

That is all I have for you at this moment. I wish I could talk to you all about something else but I shouldn’t. Someday maybe I’ll be able to vent.
