HELP WANTED: THE IDEAL MOTHER
Easygoing, relaxed, loving type to care for infant. Should enjoy rocking, cuddling, be able to hold baby patiently for 20-minute feedings every three or four hours without fidgeting. Light sleeper, early riser. No degree necessary. Must take all shifts, seven-day week. No vacation unless can arrange to have own mother as temporary substitute. No opportunity to advance.
If I have a degree does that mean I get a paycheck????? 🙂
Yesterday BJ and I went to buy our graduation gear…cap and gown. Scary thing is , I hope everything works out so we can wear them 🙂 J/K, I don’t want to jinx us while we are this close.
Man, that dumb ticker…4weeks and one day????? What is that…that is like a month and a day, hello!!! Yesterday it said a month. Today it should say 3 weeks and 6 days. UGH!!!!!!!!!! This ticker will be the end of me!
Anyway, yesterday was fun to not have to go to school. I got a few things done that I wanted to and just hung out with my hubby and my Hoobie the rest of the day. The sad thing about today was that we were supposed to be closing on our house today, and we aren’t. They other realtor is taking forever pushing through the paperwork and so they delayed us. THat is horrible. We have a contract that says to close TODAY and Fund today!! But noooooo…….we will just close whenever they feel like it. UGH!!! Don’t they know that we have alot of decisions weighing on this closing. Grrr….I just want to be done with it already. This stinks.
Today is work 😦 but I only have two weeks left and I’m off for good!! Yippee!! I hope you all have a wonderfully splendiforous day!!!
This is so fun!!! Everyone can have as many as 5 guesses, so go to http://www.expectnet.com and login to our game: Munsonbabycoming. You can enter your guesses.
Let’s have some good family/friendly fun 🙂 I know you are all competitive. The winner will get a prize, but I don’t know what the prize is going to be yet… For you sports fans, there is a very statistical method of figuring the winner–when I enter in the birth statistics, the computer tells me who won. :o)
Have fun and thanks for playing–BTW, it’s FREE and very fun!
Whahoo, today is Dia del Oso…The day of the bear. we get the day off of school and its basically a big collegiate field day. they have festivities, games, food, Battle of the Bands, etc. Great way to get your mind off of all of the overwhelming ness going on. Have we ever actually gone…NO. I usually sleep in, and get stuff done that I don’t normally have time to do.
I really want to go this year because they are having the Battle of the Bands and it is actual bands not just people that think they are a band. They had to send in demo’s and be picked to even be in the battle. SO! We’ll see if we get a chance to go.
I’m getting my carpet cleaned in about 20 minutes…and very excited about that. Nothing like good clean carpets in your house!! Its been a great day. No school, got some big MK orders, bj finished the taxes, my MIL is giving me her Motorolla 35mm camera with all the lenses, talked to my best pal, felt the babe move AGAIN!!! Whohoo…its a great day in my books 🙂
Hope you all have one as well!
Ok…so yeah…I’m bored 🙂

I was sitting in my class just now and I finally felt the baby move!!! Whoo hoo. I have been waiting and waiting. It fluttered twice and I know it was a flutter because I have never felt one like that before. YEAH!!!! I ‘m so thrilled. I’ve been overanalyzing every sensation that I feel but this one was finally not a hunger pain or a gas bubble 🙂
Hello in there!!!
Another 8 a.m. class down, 5 more to go. I hate 8 o’clock’s. They are so hard to go to and so many people come in at like 8:30…8:40…what’s the point of that…by then the class is already to the boring part and you might as well stay home.
Well I came home with the thought of going back to sleep for an hour…but I doubt that will happen. By the time I get my email checked and responded to, map out my day, read my friend’s blogs 😉 , and make sure I have everything together for me next class…I must go…so forget the wonderful idea of a morning nap.
Today my ticker says the same thing it did yesterday. 1 month and 1 day until graduation…that stinks. I was so looking forward to it being less than a month, and now it is still more than a month by one whole lousy day. WHY MUST YOU TORTURE ME, TICKER!!!
Yesterday I did a bunch of nothing. I had all these plans for using my day off to do, and all of the sudden I look at the clock and it is 7pm…I can’t even remember how in the world I wasted all that time. I’m not even a good time waster. Normally I am multitasking like a professional. I guess I just needed a brain break. It was nice I just am in amazement that I actually accomplished doing NOTHING.
Bj took me out to dinner last night to Olive Garden. It was really fun and nice to just hang out, both of us were in stress relief mode so it was nice. BUT we saw this lady and a little boy, maybe 8 years old, eating beside us. And apparently the lady wasn’t his mom, maybe his aunt or something…because we hear her say “its ok, it’ll be our little secret.” so, Bj, with his fatherly insticts already kicking in, glances over and realizes that the woman is giving the 8 YEAR OLD BOY a glass of WINE!!!!!!!!! WHAT IS SHE THINKING!!! It is proven that the younger you start drinking the more prone to becoming an alchoholic you are. Now given, she wasn’t giving him whiskey or vodka or something, but still !!!! He’s 8 or so years old. Not even close to the drinking age. UGH!!! People these days are amazing.
Well, I will go eat some breakfast now so that I can tame the growling coming from my stomach. Have a wonderful day everyone…this is my last class of the week!!! No school tomorrow or Friday!!!!! WHOO HOO!!!!!
“The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not flunk; He keepeth me from lying down when I should be studying. He leadeth me beside the water fountain for a study break; He restoreth my faith in study guides. He leads me to better study habits for my grade’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of borderline grades, I will not have a nervous breakdown; For thou art with me. My prayers and my friends, they comfort me. Thou givest me answers in moments of blankness; Thou anointest my head with understanding. My test paper runneth over with questions I recognize. Surely passing grades and flying colors shall follow me All the days of my examinations, And I shall not have to dwell in this university forever, Amen! “
well monday has come again and finally gone. I just don’t enjoy Monday’s….here I am again at the fun fun photolab waiting for my pictures to process. then i have to digitally enhance them and burn them to a disk to turn in tomorrow. why do I always wait until the night before to do my pictures….oh yeah, cuz I don’t have any other time to do them earlier. Sigh….this is my second to last project to turn in and I will be finished forever. now don’t get me wrong, I have really enjoyed this class…i just wish I could do it more like a hobby instead of a “have-to” sort of thing. soon enough soon enough!!! Only 1 month and one day until graduation….praise the Lord…I have waited for this day forever. i can’t believe I am actually going to walk across that stage to never return to school again!!!!!!!! whooo hoooo!!!!!!!!
Today i walked outside and it was COLD!!! i was shivering….wow. what a change. Then i went to my dreaded 8 a.m. class and had the hardest time staying awake…my eyes were shaking side to side it seemed fighting off the sleep…only 5 more of those to go!!! Double praise the Lord. Then I took a killer test….hopefully that went well…we’ll see ??!! Then by the time I finished school it was burning hot again…..only in Texas!
went to work…same ole same ole…came home , ate dinner, now i’m back at my favorite place ever!!! THE PHOTOLAB 😦
My shower was so fun!! I got some cute little baby things….blankets, bottles, clothes, booties, toys…oh so many fun things!!! I will try to post some pictures soon. It was a little wierd to think these things are for a little person just living inside of me! Wow!! How wierd. How cool though!! So many exciting things awaiting us.
It was fun to hang out with my mom. I’m so glad she got to come. We have a great time together. Now the weekend is over and the dreaded week is here again 😦 Tests and assignments are looming once again. YUCK!!! At least this week is Diadeloso, which is ‘the day of the bear’ at Baylor and we get the whole day off. Its like a giant field day. Pretty fun. So that will be a nice break to have.
Well I must study. I have a big test tomorrow that I am not looking forward to. Pray for me to do good.
This is my norm
