Oh boy--I keep thinking it's Friday. I am wishing this week away! I am excited for next week because even though it's my turn to work 9-5 next week (except for weds), I am excited because I am going to see Dr. Grainger for the last time for my 26 week appointment and to get my referral papers to Dr. McCarthy. I am more excited to just get that ball rolling then I thought I would be, but I really just want to get in there, get comfortable with him and to see the hospital and for him to tell me what to expect, and so on and so forth :) lol. I like to be prepared and with 15 weeks to go now, I feel ready to absorb all this information now before I get too caught up in everything else!
Yesterday my Cornwall baby shower invites were shipped out to me (I ordered them in the morning and they were shipped by 4pm--this place came highly recommended to me by a lady at work that's really into that stuff. It was a bit expensive for what I ordered but they are SO cute and I'm excited to get them! lol (How sad to get this excited over paper, I know lol).
With the invites, I also ordered my thank you cards, registry cards, and address labels..so lots of fun stuff coming! (lol).
Now, I just need to order the little party favours--which I think are the cutest things ever! lol...a good thing about smaller showers like my Cornwall one--you can get away with doing more little things like this and not going broke because of it :)
Last night, we ate such a random dinner! I was craving bad food all day so I decided I deserved it! lol I had some cheese sticks and Mr. Noodles (mmmm lol) After that, we went upstairs and got ready for bed and ate swedish berries and sour watermelon candy! I didn't even feel sick after, which is a rarity lol---usually when I eat bad foods like that I feel sick very shortly after and pay heavy for eating stuff like that. Someone "up there" must have known I needed to indulge after a day like yesterday haha.
We decided to go against our better judgement and continue on watching episodes of Breaking Bad....sad to say we're on episode 6 now and are just as upset with how boring it is now as it was after episode 1. A few people have assured us it does get better so I guess we'll keep on keeping on! I can see that the main character is on the edge of snapping so I guess when he finally does, that's when it gets good...here's hoping it's in the next episode or two or I won't be able to keep Tyler's attention on it for much longer lol.
This weekend, I'm going to start CANNING! :) lol...my aunt taught me how to can chili and spaghetti sauce when I was over there on the weekend, so I will likely just start with that since it seems a bit easier than starting with jams and stuff I won't use as much right off the bat. I also have a new recipe for these chocolate cookies with peanut butter centers I want to try in the worst way lol..more just because they sound SO fun to make! I love recipes that have dough you need to roll out and play with :)
I also need to go out this weekend and buy a new winter coat..mine just barely does up right now, and by the time I actually realllllyyyy need it, I won't be able to anymore, so off to the stores to get some more fall/winter clothes and a coat I think!
I called the other day to switch my phone plan---now I'm getting twice as much as I was before for the same price (yes, that's how outdated my plan was LOL). I was thinking of switching over to Telus (actually, my mind was made up) but the cost of buying out my contract and paying for the new iphone was just ridiculous, so I decided...all phone companies are evil and want to take your money, so I'll just stay with Rogers and get my new iphone in December when I'm due for my upgrade :D Now the big question--white or black?! lol Guess it won't matter too much once I have the case on it..but still...it's a hard choice! lol
This morning the $10,000 hot hit played...and I tried calling over and over and over again--busy,busy,busy. Too bad--would have been a nice way to start the day winning a chunk of change like that! lol Oh well...some other person won..can't say I'm surprised--I've never been that kind of lucky to win things lol.
I'm thinking of planning a "babymoon" for Tyler and myself..this is apparently a big thing for people to do...go away on a nice little trip for a weekend before baby comes as one last hurrah before you have to worry about babysitters and stuff when you take off--though we will be blessed in that department with lots of loving grandparents that will watch him when we decide to get away to our next tropical location :) lol I don't want to go too far though--Thinking of a little bed and breakfast in Merrickville or something like that--has anyone else done one of these or heard of people that have? I need ideas..I want to go before it gets TOO cold...though I think that maybe a cabin and doing some snow shoes would be fun! ..we'll see :)
This morning I saw a guy I work with (who is SUPER shy and goes for courses on how to public speak and talk to people) get bullied at Tim Horton's. I almost burst into tears. He's just a little short balding guy---think of the dad in Honey I Shrunk the Kids...anyways..there are three lines at Tims you can get into..and you pick the line when you walk in...he walked to the far line but the guy in the line beside it saw him go over and realised he will likely be served first and grabbed my coworkers arm and spun him around and he said "WAIT YOUR TURN, I'm first, I was here before you" (Neither of them were anywhere close to the front of their lines at this point. My coworker just apologized and stepped back to let the other guy go ahead of him and the guy yells at him "Well you may as well go ahead now!" and my coworker insisted this jerk goes in front of him and his face was just beatttttt red because everyone and their dogs were staring right at him :( I just kind of hid behind the guy in front of me because I didn't want my coworker to know anyone he knew was there and saw or I know he would think abotu it ALL day...poor guy. I want to go give him a big hug...not really sure what peoples problems are but come on...it's a line at tim hortons. If you're running late, you can do without your precious coffee or 2 people being served before you won't be the end of the world..give me a break. so pathetic.
Anyways--this blog is SO random hahah...sorry :)
Enjoy your Thursdays! Hope you're all better prepared for the possible flurries tonight more than I am!!! lol

the thing with your co-worker, actually makes me sad...i would have done the same thing, hid so that he wouldnt be more embarrassed knowing that someone he knew saw that!
ReplyDeletewhere are the belly pics?
you talk about the clothes, the room and stuff but any ideas on names?
I know! Poor guy :( A part of me wanted to yell and scream at the other guy but that just would have made it worse :(
ReplyDeleteBelly pics are coming :) We're having out photos done at the end of October/early November, so stay tuned! :)
We have a few ideas on names but we've learned to keep them to ourselves lol..lots of people have LOTS of opinions on names and I don't really care to hear "oh no, don't name him that. My friend once dated a guy who knew a guy with that name and he was a real jerk" kind of conversation...So we have a short list picked that we really like, but we're waiting to hold him and see his little face before we decide for sure :)
