Queen of Rambles

I hate how technology is able to push me to the brink of a nervous breakdown. On Friday we connected up our Vonage and it worked instantly. INSTANTLY! No configuration, no nothing. It was just ready to go. We made a call on it and all was good. An hour later I tried to make [...]

*I hope we don’t get hit with a tornado tonight. I don’t know where to go. We live on the third floor. There is no basement. Where do we go for shelter? We’re under watch until midnight. *Thank you all so much for the sweet comments on the picture post. For those wondering about the [...]

If you see a woman who looks like she’s pulled out clumps of her own hair, running around screaming and biting her own arms in frustration, that would be me. I am about to go frickety-frackety INSANE! I got up really early this morning (about 5 ish) because I couldn’t sleep. Then Mike couldn’t find [...]

I just had the worst nightmare in the history of the world. Mike was in France, I was in labor, and my crazy granny was the only person available to act as my labor coach. I may never sleep again. I had a long phone conversation with Granny yesterday, and I suppose that was the [...]

I do believe Thumper has dropped. I went to bed last night with my stomach pressing up under my boobs, and today it is down low. I’ve been hoping a dropped baby would mean no more sciatica, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. I am having some pain, though it is not nearly [...]

How often is it that I post a post with zero rantiness? Not often. I’m just not a Little Mary Sunshine. I like being around happy people, but I always seem to find the irony in any situation. I don’t really think irony is the word I’m looking for, but I’m too lazy to look [...]

This is going to be short and sweet because I’m not sure how long I will have Internet access. I’m using an unsecured network that someone around here left open and they may very well turn off their modem or something. It seems like we are not the only wireless people in this place. There [...]

The movers called and they won’t be here until sometime between 8:30 and 10:30 am. That means I have enough time to run the modem down to the cable company tomorrow morning, so I was a very bad girl and didn’t return it today. When the modem is turned in they will turn off the [...]

We went to our last birthing class last night and came away with a very “official” document, declaring we are now officially certified to have a baby. For some reason I don’t think the hospital is going to demand proof of certification when we go in for labor and delivery. I guess it’s cute, but [...]

Behold, I am cranky. Watch out world. Moving always makes me cranky, and feeling helpless makes me feel even more cranky. When am I going to get everything unpacked? I’m not! Not unless I want intense pain all the way from my groin down to my toes. Instead, I have to count on Mike to [...]
