Blurbing again
I am so ready for bed tonight. I had a rough day today. Not sure why, but I did. We had a church picnic today and it rained a lot at the beginning. The kids were hard to keep track of, I was feeling unpleasantly pregnant, Eric kept "disappearing" on me (meaning, he'd get into a conversation and I would lose track of him AND the kids), I had to repeat my status about fifteen times (when are you due, are you ready to have this baby, how do you feel, do you know what you're having, etc. repeat repeat repeat...)--finally, I just got super cranky and tired. We got home, Eric bathed our sandy children (haha), I talked to my mom on the phone for like ten minutes (unheard of--usually it's three times that long at least), Eric got me to take a nap. I slept for about an hour and a half. I woke up feeling so much better. **Please note. My husband is AWESOME.**
I made recycled dinner (we had last night's dinner over again) and we got our 1-and-a-half year old to eat SALAD for the first time! That is called a Parental Triumph, right there. Woot!
There was a pleasant breeze all evening and I remembered how much I love where I live.
And the very best best part of my night was that I miraculously have all my major house areas CLEAN before the week starts. AND I VACUUMED. Not everything, but the living room and our room. Our room is once again a haven... (Abby, Pennie--aren't you proud?!
)
I discovered while cleaning that I really love having a clean playroom. I love having all the little toys in their categorized spaces. Surprising, considering my usual laid-back attitude about my home, but very encouraging! I actually enjoy having things organized in the playroom! I feel like I've made a giant step in a recovery program, haha.Speaking of cleaning, I need to keep up with that series I started pre-Daddy about self-discipline. I shall ruminate upon it.
Ruminate is a great word.
I love words... Shiver... Lugubrious... Bleak... Ripple... Sanctamonious... Felicity... Ubiquitous... Rumble... Wisp... Zephyr... There's not enough opportunities to use a word like "zephyr".
As I said, I am reconciled with my pregnant self and my pretty house. I am so totally ready for bed. *muah*~Easily Victoria

mmmmm... i love words too... blissfully... ludicrous... enchanting... defenestrate...
@anna_rie - I love defenestrate, too!
I *am* proud of you, Victoria! Way to go! Pour yourself some pink lemonade; you deserve it!
i guess i'm into more legal terminology. ahaha.
You want long words? I can give you long words!
Idiosyncrasy, flagellate, duodenum, appendectomy, ketoacidosis, esomeprazole. Okay... so that last one is a drug name. I cheat, I admit it.
You, my dear, appear to be nesting. I am very happy to report that my friend who was due July 2 had a healthy baby girl yesterday morning. In my inexperienced mind, this means you should be having your baby any second now. I'll be waiting for news on the edge of my seat!
I am proud of you! My room is NOT a haven right now, and it really does affect your mood when you don't really have a cozy place to retreat to. Pat yourself on the back!
(((HUGS)))
@anna_rie - @Abibigail - Serious Lol over here; I had no idea what defenestrate meant (although I think I have heard my mom use it) and I looked it up. Awesome, haha! I love having friends who make me use a dictionary.
@Abibigail - Can I make it like chocolate milk or something? Haha, pink lemonade is not my favorite... I'll drink it if I'm at a picnic and the only alternative is pop, but usually I take water over lemonade.
@christianchemist - Oh how I hope I have this baby soon!!!! I just want to feel like myself again and most of the time I don't. :p
@TheMarriedFreshman - Do you feel like yourself post partum? I don't... Or are you talking about post post partum?
i <3 your xanga card!
@Abibigail - Haha, yeah I thought about that... I think I'm thinking of post post partum. Like, three months later. But I'd be a lot closer to feeling like myself if I didn't resemble some sort of roundish fruit. :p
@elelkewljay - Thank you! I was going to give it a bunch of fanfare, but didn't. Maybe I still will. :) Stewie deserves linkage.
Awww hope you're feeling better! When you wake up and it's raining you almost know it's going to be a hard day.
