I love today. I was Jonesin' for a good rain day I think! I feel so cozy and comfy and like being slow at everything I do today :) I wish I were at home to bake and cook and read and watch tv, but I'll make the most of being here! lol
I also got a nice surprise this morning --the service man came to change the light covers to parabolic lenses in my office :) No more headaches from the awful lights! wahoo!
Just finished enjoying my toast and PB and water and about to cut into my grapefruit! mmmm..I will slowly enjoy that until my meeting at 11! lol
Last night when I got home, Ty had already eaten some leftover shephard's pie so I just cooked up some grilled cheese (mmm) and had that and settled in to watch my season finale of Keeping up with the Kardashians...I heard a doorbell go off but thought it was in the show...then it started dinging incessantly and banging ensued...I finally realised it was MY door lol...I ran upstairs and my parents were at the door LOL oops :) My aunt and uncle were with them so they came in and visited for a while and picked up some papers they needed and I showed them the freshly painted nursery and fed them some cheesecake and chocolate cake and they went on their way! Nice unexpected visit :)
After they left, I finished my episode and then put all the light switch and plug covers back on in the baby's room and hung the curtains and hung up all the little baby clothes and organized a bit of the closet :) I can't wait for the furniture to be in! And the rug I ordered to to hang the stuff on the wall and sit in there and imagine what it will be like to have my little family!! I think it's unnatural, even for an expectant mother, to be this excited lolol.
67 more workdays :) LOL (excited about that too haha)
I think tonight feels like a pork chop, scalloped potato and green bean night :) mmm. It's incredible how much money I have been saving by not getting breakfast and lunch out everyday! I was averaging about $15 a day in food (sometimes more depending what I had for lunch!)..Think about it! That's at least $150 every pay that was going towards eating out (not including if we ever ate out for dinner)..that's ALOT of groceries (or baby stuff hehe). Plus, this way is better for me--being able to control everything that goes into my food, so I know more how clean things were when prepared/how fresh they were/who touched it, etc :) Makes me feel much healthier and better!
Still haven't gained any weight yet--and almost 22 weeks in! The doctor isn't concerned, so neither am I...the longer I can put off the weight gain, the better :) Just makes it easier to get back on track with losing weight after the baby comes! Dr. Grainger seems to think I'll be one of the lucky ones that ends up makign this a crazy diet plan lol---apparently some people that have babies end up being skinnier than when they got pregnant! I'll keep my fingers crossed :) lol
I started slowly getting all my files in order at work here already and sorting through stuff I can get rid of and shred. I am in the middle of writing up what we call SOP's (Standard of Procedure) for all the stuff I do, just in case they replace me (which it doesn't look like they are while I'm gone).
Anyways, I am being incredibly boring today (sorry:)) Hope you all enjoy your rainy Tuesday and use it as a lazy day like I am! hehe
