I came home and there was a mess that I had totally forgotten about. It's called my entire house except for my bathroom and (somewhat) master bedroom. Pregnant brain or selective memory?

Not much to update. Decided (probably) to work the rest of the week of the 8th. Have another appointment on Monday. 2 cms down, 8 to go. Wow that seems like a lot. Been picking things up super cheap. There is a HUGE selection of Goodwills and Salvation Army's in this area believe it or not. And Austin isn't a cheap town, so you know they have good stuff.

The Salvation Army I stop in every once in a while I found out last week has a 50% off day every Wednesday on EVERYTHING in the store. Including furniture and the like. Most of the time you see the musty smelling couch there, but today I managed to get a snap side t-shirt, a receiving blanket, two onesie type outfits a baby bathtub and....? Something else for $9.00 Oh. A cover for the Futon we have because Annie keeps getting crumbs and what not on it.

Then I went to Goodwill and got some curtains for the girls' room for four bucks which normally would have been, like, well over twenty for one panel because they were Liz Claiborne. Super cute pink stripe. Along with the three onesies, two pillowcases, two crib sheets, chocoloate velvet grommet curtains and whatever the heck else I got LAST week, I'm not doing so bad. I think I'll make it a point to go there every week to see what they got. I've gotten some useful things so far, Cath would be super proud :D

By the way, people, the top ten list of things to say to a pregnant woman (at ANY time during her pregnancy) does NOT, believe it or not, have the phrase, "Wow, you're HUGE" on it. Just thought I'd throw you a bone. I have no where to grow but out and that would be the main reason I don't have any other new pictures of me.

I have some of Annie, I swear. The ones of her from Easter in TX City consist of her mainluy looking like a homeless hand-me-down child which I'm not proud of, but MAN she is white!! I will have something up as soon as I can get Fe to reconnect the wire for the camera.

Been gradually packing "the bag" even though there is nothing in there for me yet. I washed my robe, but tell me... if I should bring it if I don't have anything to wear but the hospital gown so far? I haven't found anything I like. I did find a pair of slipper socks, which hopefully will fit my insanely enflamed rhino feet at the point of delivery. I have had to resort to flip flops at work, which I don't know what I'm going to do when the DM comes next week, that won't look good.

Well, Belly and I are going to bed. It's almost one and I should have gone to bed a long time ago. Thankfully Fe is finding a ride home so I won't have to wake up in two hours to get him. Night.
