Howdy Humble Readers!
I'm sorry for my absence, especially right at the beginning of ICLW. I can blame part of it on a two-day migraine, and part of it on sheer lethargy after the fact. I'm beginning to wonder how much of my headaches are triggered by the weather (there have been a lot of ups and downs in the temperature lately). Fun times!
*****
I hope that all my friends south of the 49th parallel (and those in Alaska too) have had a great Thanksgiving. I was seriously craving turkey today... we had pork schnitzel instead. Ginny and I watched the Macy's parade on tv (which translates to her playing and climbing all over me and trying to comb my hair until a balloon or the Sesame Street float showed up). It was fun in a demented kind of way.
*****
Plans for Ginny's birthday party are coming together. Sadly, it's going to be a very small group at her party. Just us, Gramma, an uncle, and maybe one of her little friends from church. I know that she won't notice or miss anything, but is it okay for me to be a little bummed that no one else is coming? I wish she had a few cousins her age.

I had a dream last night that freaked me out. I dreamed that I was pregnant. As in, I just found out, watched the line change colour. And I was PANICKING!!! Who'da thunk that a dream about being pregnant would ever be almost a nightmare? And in the dream, I was particularly freaked out because I had just sold a bunch of baby stuff on Kijiji (which reminded me that I had to post a bunch of stuff on Kijiji today).

Ginny is fully recovered from the roseola. No more spots, and she's eating almost normally again. I think she may be starting to develop some pickiness which makes me sad. Hopefully, it's a short lived phase.

Still haven't taken our Christmas card photo, as I've been waiting for everyone to be healthy and happy enough to take it. It also doesn't help that I want to take the pic outside, but it's dark when my Beloved leaves for work and when he comes home. Hopefully we'll be able to get it done on the weekend.

Speaking of my Beloved... still haven't heard anything about the interview, but they said they'd call by the end of the week. Keep those fingers crossed for us please.
While I might not be a hobbit genetically, I do believe that I am one culturally. A homebody at heart, with a fear of (but slight craving for) adventure, who values simple things like good food, good books, and good friends. Chronicling the journey of the unlikely pairing of a Hobbit and an Ent, who have travelled down the road through infertility & RPL, toward building our family. We've come a long way, and now with two precious wee-lings in tow, our road goes ever on and on...

Happy ICLW! I'll have to check out kijiji - never heard of it! Fingers crossed about the interview!
ReplyDeleteGlad she is feeling better! And I totally have the blahs lately. Also, so funny. I had a nightmare this week that I had previously bought a ticket for a cruise and forgotten about it... and suddenly I "had to" go, but since I bought it when I was single, I had to go alone. Talk about a panic attack. I woke up from the trauma. LOL. The stuff that scares us...
ReplyDeleteHello from ICLW! I hope you hear good news from the interview soon!
ReplyDeleteHmm... I wonder what that dream means? I wonder if it is a sign a little one is on the way and you shouldn't sell the stuff?!
ReplyDeleteReally hope your DH gets the job.
Hello from ICLW. It's ironic having a dream/almost nightmare about something like that. Always leaves you thinking about it for several days.
