Is it the weekend yet??

Today sucks. I feel yucky. Not enough sleep last night (Addy is lucky she's so cute), the drive home from Camrose this morning and some bug are ruining my day. Fortunately Jamie thinks he might be home as early as 6:30pm so that won't be so bad. Better than 8:30 or 9:00 anyways.

I almost had a heart attack this afternoon. I had gotten my glucose screening done earlier in the week (you know, the test that indicates whether or not I have gestational diabetes) and today the doctor's office phoned. Thankfully they just wanted to know if I had had any prenatal bloodwork done this time around (which I have not, so I imagine I'll be getting another lab req at my next appointment...Yay me...Bleagh) but as soon as I saw the number on the call display I thought "Oh crap!" But false alarm. I've dodged that bullet for the time being. I could handle the whole diabetes thing if it were diet and exercise controlled, but if I had to take insulin...That I could not deal with. And I was already told that if anything goes "wrong" this pregnancy (ie high blood pressure, baby gets to big, gestational diabetes, etc) then I have to have a c-section and I don't want a c-section so I will not be happy if my results come back abnormal. I so badly do not want one a section that I will cry if they tell me I have to have one. Those women who schedule c-sections because they are afraid of the pain of labor are nuts. I had 12 hours of labor and a c-section, the c-section is way worse.

Anyways, I'm babbling again.

I wish it would snow this afternoon. Then I would be happy. I want some snow already! And not just a little bit, I want lots. It's ugly and grey and everything looks dead outside. Maybe I'll go dig out the Christmas decorations and start decorating the house...That would make me feel better. Is it too early to turn the outdoor lights on?

It's too early to be nesting sweetie! LOL

A bunch of my neighbour have put up thier lights but only one has turned them on. One other has a light display in their front window and that is on 24/7. Too early for me. Although, I'm thinking about changing my cell phone ringer to Christmas carols. ~hanging my head in shame~

Have a good weekend!
