Day 18: Pokey

I feel very productive today.  I didn't leave the house and I haven't showered... yet, but I changed the virtual tour of the house and put it up on youtube; I cooked dinner -- turkey burger; I swam laps for 30 minutes; I watered the grass a bit by hand.

It doesn't sound like much, but it feels like a lot.  I'm trying to resuscitate some of the grass in the back yard.  I'm trying to eat a bit healthier -- it's difficult as I refuse to go to the grocery store and am running out of food.  I'm trying to exercise more so my "BMs" (as my aunt Sue calls 'em) stay "regular" -- or as regular as they can be while preggers.  And I really want our house to sell asap.  I'd lower the price to the lowest we'd accept, but then we have no negotiating room, you know?!

This baby is really running out of room in my body.  Her kicks and jabs hurt more and more each day.

I will have to clean the house tomorrow, as Thursday my folks get home.  Boooo for cleaning.  The one thing I will not clean is the bug in the living room.  I trapped it under a glass bowl (so I could make sure he didn't escape) and it's just gonna wait there until my dad gets home to pick it up and throw it away.   I've been keeping things mildly clean... I do the dishes by hand daily, but I don't put them away.

I think I'll also need to check the tablets for the pool again tomorrow and put in more shock.  I have to be more careful this time cause last time I accidentally got a lung-full of chlorine vapors -- oops.  I'll bet that's not good for the baby :(

Oh oh oh. I also sent an email out about the FRG information system we have and how it sucks, but how we could make it better.  Of course I said it in nicer terms, but the point remains the same.  I really feel like we turn people off from the FRG and it's not being used appropriately.

I did get to talk to Tyler today.  We could even video chat for a few minutes.  Skype is working faster than iChat, so we went with that.  He wants me to mail his stetson, which I'll try to do on Thursday... after my doctor's appointment.  He looked exhausted and sunned in the video... or sad... I couldn't really tell.  He was talking quietly because people around him were sleeping.  Luckily, he had a slow day today, but the TOA is coming up (tomorrow? or real soon) and things may change.  I would hope they'd change from the insanity that was, to the slower pace of today, but who knows for what they hope?!

Well, I've been in this kitchen chair for entirely too many hours and my body is a bit achey, so I think I'll go shower now.

If you're interested in seeing my house, here 'tis.
