Today's adventure...

So, we went to Red Lobster to celebrate T getting his permit and after that, I came home to survey the progress on the room.

It's gonna need a second coat. I can tell I got tired on the last two walls. Lol. It's okay though, I got *some* sleep, so I feel *refreshed* today and ready to get it done.

I say some, but mean I tossed and turned all night long, because Baby K kept lying on my sciatica when I was on my right side, which made my right leg and butt hurt and fall asleep. Then is turn on my left side, but my shoulder would end up hurting from painting and being a bad shoulder I'm general, so I had to flip back over to my right, only to begin the cycle again. This morning, I ended up getting on my knees, with pillows propped under my chest so I could be comfortable for a little while.

So really, I'm not refreshed...however, I am determined and that makes up for it. I want it done so I can get it organized...I want to sew and I can't because everything is cluttered. I have a couple of new project ideas I want to get underway! :-)

Plus, I want all of the work done so I can rest the last couple of weeks before the baby comes, rather than being so exhausted from her arrival, and not being able to relax due to all the clutter. This way, I'm tired, but I can rest...and when the baby is here, I can nap when she does without a horrible to-do list in my head.

I might go ahead and pick the paint color for the guest room as well. K said if I do, he can start on it this weekend. That would be nice. We can work on that and I can make curtains for it. :-)

Progress makes me so happy. I have to admit.

My hands hurt pretty bad though....gotta say. Hopefully I can hold the brush. Oh, gotta love old factory-induced carpal tunnel. Ugh.

So anyway, here's a pic of my handsome young man with his permit and one of me at 8 months prego chilling on the couch with Izzy....who has become very clingy lately. Not sure why. She's not normally like this, but I'll take it. :-)

  1. The last weeks are so hard and uncomfortable. Maybe you could look up some yoga poses for pregnancy. I know my studio has yoga for expecting moms. Shopping and going to send something girly! Sorry I didn't send a wedding gift or at least a card. I wasn't sure what you needed. I'm so happy for you!!! Much love,

  2. Oh no worries about a gift! We don't need anything.

    Yeah, I've been telling myself that I'm actually really lucky...this pregnancy hasn't been that bad. I've read horror stories from other women that make me realize this. Sure, I've been uncomfortable and anxious, but nothing at all serious...and I still have energy! I should be thanking my lucky stars!

    lol
