A Pep Talk for Me

Getting back into the non-holiday routine is rough, so I need a little pep talk from myself. First here's how I'm feeling and then the correlating happy thoughts:
  • Annoyed that I couldn't wake up earlier than 6:15 AM, which meant that I didn't get to work out this morning.
  • My hips hurt today, as I'm PMS. I've been spotting for three days. My temp dropped today, so I'm sure it'll be here full force tomorrow.
  • Frustrated that I've been working hard all day, and I still have much more to do.
  • I didn't get much personal planning done last night.
Here's the things I know I should be happy about:
  • The sun is out for the first time in three days, and I might be able to exercise tonight by walking the dog. I think I may need to make some yoga time as well.
  • I may have some of my PMS symptoms gone. No stomach/digestion issues, and I haven't been exhausted.
  • I'm employed, I like my job, and I'm working very hard to stay on track with what needs to be completed.
  • I did do my nails last night and relaxed. They look really good, so I wore my favorite emerald ring on today. Oohh! and one of my favorite funky necklaces with a moon face and hand on it. DH bought it at some "New Age" shop near his office last year. He knows I love that stuff!

We still don't have any offers on our current house!!!! Please send good house offer vibes our way.

Also, please keep my friends K&G in your thoughts and prayers. She had a blood test that confirmed she is pregant, but then at work last night she was spotting. She called the doctor and he said to stay off her feet and not go to work today if she still was spotting (she's an OR nurse and can't be off her feet at work!). I really want this to work out for her. I wish all my friends could have no issues having their babies. Especially so I can play with them and babysit! Sometimes I secretly remember how nice it is to be the "Cool Aunt."

I feel a little better so now back to work!

Bouncing Back From Depression

I've been pretty depressed lately. Monday I hit my all time low, which coincidentally was also my dad's birthday. Needless to say I'm sure I'm on his not favorite child list as I forgot to call him I was so depressed. This whole two mortgage thing with no contract in site is really frustrating. Especially when lots of other houses on our block are selling. Our house is really very lovely, just no pool. It has a really flat backyard perfect for putting a pool in though. Anyway, on Monday, Mom called to make sure I didn't forget to call Dad and tell me she read my blog over the weekend and sent me an email about it. Sorry, Mom, I still have yet to check my emails to see what you had to say. Mom told me I needed to bury a statue of St. Joseph in the yard to get it to sell quicker. Wish I knew that sooner. I was going to wait for her to mail me hers, but yesterday I got really mad at myself and wanted to do something to improve my situation, so I found the nea...

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

The Boys Are Here!!!

I'm trying to post this from the hospital Internet access, but I will be able to do this announcement better justice from home, but it is a very odd, but short birth story. They came so fast and furious there was nothing anyone could do. But the boys are in the NICU and doing well. They were born at 31 weeks 5 days gestation on 5/29/2009. I will post their names and information (no comments on names unless you like them, LOL): Baby A: Thomas Michael III born at 2:09 AM Weight - 3 lbs, 15 1/2 oz Length - 18 inches Baby B: Liam Jonathan born at 2:20 AM Weight - 4 lbs, 1.4 oz Length - 17 1/4 inches long Just a word on their health, Thomas's breathing is doing well and he did not need any help in that area so far. I had two steroid shots from when I was admitted until before they were born, so I think that helped. Liam was intubated and given surfactant when he arrived in the NICU and is now on CPAP, although he can't stand having the tubes in his nose. Both are under t...
