  • Good morning.  Well its been two whole days since I blogged.  The longest break I've ever taken.  hehehe


    Sunday's break was not by choice.  DH forgot to pay the internet bill....and so was disconnected until we could get ahold of them on Monday.  Trust me...I was not GRACEFUL, or FORGIVING about that.     After all he'd been asked/reminded/begged several times.  *sigh*


    Sunday;  Well that was a intresting day.  Our lovely smoke detector started going off at 3:00 am and did NOT stop going off until 6:15 am.  When it was finally light enough to go up the hill behind the shed and get our 12 foot ladder.  I drug it through our 6 inches of snow....into the house.  Climbed up it and changed the battery.  INstant silence.  AHHHHHHHHHH.  Definitely btw NOT recommended for 34 week pregnant lady.  But one can only take so much beep beep beep beep beep beep. 


    My kids were of course wide awake too...because we'd all been seranaded by this lovely sound all night long.  The day went downhill from there for the most part.


    Jamari was a stinker.  And decided during morning nursery that I was NOT allowed to hold him.  Only the nursery attendant (my friend) was.   Kaylin didn't even make it through the first song Sunday morning in the nursery by herself before she had a major leaky diaper which required a complete change of clothes....and consoling that ONLY mommy could give.  Thus I got ZERO out of church.    Jamari and I had a battle of the wills during church over who was gonna hold him.  (Me--not the nursery attendant) 


    The REASON I believe I won...is because yesterday when Rob was home.  Jamari let me comfort him off and on all day long.  Jamari NEVER lets me comfort him when Rob is home.  But he did yesterday.  MAJOR VICTORY


    Rob is still sick.  And lovely guy that he is he shared it with all of us.  Rob has the worst of it so far....and I'm close behind.  We canceled date night as it just didn't sound fun.  Instead I picked up some chicken in town and we ate that and watched Princess Diary on pay-for-view.  I had seen it...and was hoping Rob would enjoy it.  *gasp* he did...but don't tell any guys k?  we don't want to ruin his reputation


    I woke up yesterday morning (Monday) with my bed being wet.  FREAKED me out....because I've had excellent bladder control this pregnancy..and was quite concerned that my water had broke.  So had to do a ER run into the midwifes.  We did some tests...and everythings fine.....so still apparently I've either gone back to being a 4 year old and wetting my bed :-O  ORRRR.....I had a major mucus drain. (I know extremely grose sorry)


    WE WILL HAVE INSURANCE AS OF 11 OR SO TODAY.   


    I finally got through to the insurance lady and she had everything ready for me.  Its gonna be a bit $$.  But we don't honestly care at this stage of the game.


    Our new evening service with Christian Contemporary music is very enjoyable.  And attendance has gone from maybe 20 to 75 or more.  Plus people are NOT in a hurry to leave.  So we've been hanging around visiting and eating snacks that everybody brings.  Its very nice...and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.  So much so if it weren't for the fact that SS was in the morning...I'd be tempted to not even go in the morning.


    Also the parents/leaders made an executive decision and decided that toddlers/babies would just be ignored if they were noisy.  So I'm not stuck in the nursery not hearing/seeing anything   And if somebody gets offended by my babies...they can stick it in their ear    I don't let them run wild...but stuff happens kwim? 


    We got another 4 inches of snow yesterday.  Making 10 for the weekend...with probably 5 on the ground right now.   My poor daffodills....it remains to be seen whether they'll make it or not. 


    Okay...well that sums up my last two days...basically.    I hope I didn't completely confuse you all by my wanderings today.    And that everyone has a great day!


    Father God, I thank you that my water did NOT break yesterday.  And that tomorrow I will be in the "safe" zone.  I ask that you would help me to slowly work back into being able to do the chores around here again.  And that this baby would come when your timing is right.  I pray that the kids would all start getting healthier...and my cold would NOT get any worse.  I ask that Rob would be feeling much better.  In your sons name, Amen

  • Speaking of insurance, I am stark raving mad right now.  Our monthly car insurance payment went up $30 a month- and we have NEVER EVER EVER made a claim.....seems that living in Michigan- you have to pay for things you dont even need...its total crap if you ask me.....so now I am paying (and I called around and this is the lowest I could find) $558 every 6 months for a 1992 dodge and a 1995 dodge...I cant even imagine having to pay insurance on a new car....OOHHH I am so mad!

    Welcome  back!

  • You HAVE had a couple of major days haven't you?!  First of all, CONGRATS on the insurance! o/  I'm thankful that's one less thing you have to worry about. 

    Secondly, sorry to hear the fam is sick.   Praying you're all better soon.

    Third, I can't BELIEVE you went out and pulled that ladder through the snow!!!!!!  GIRL!  I guess I would have wanted to do it also, but no way I could have being 34 weeks pregnant!  You MUST be wonder woman!

    Finally, KEWL about the contemporary service!!  That sounds wonderful.  I think it's great they are including the children.

    Glad you're back.

  • YUCK at all the snow...and my fire alarm used to do that...lol.....omgosh,,the beeps  do make you go bonkerz!  Glad to see yer back!!!

  • Welcome Back! 

    ((((Hugs))))

  • It sounds like you have been really busy here lately or is it just today.

  • You always have SOOO Much going on!!!!  You must be exhausted!  But I'm very happy that your water didn't break - although my goodness, you're getting close - 34 weeks - already???
