Hi World,
Why have I fallen off the face of the earth? Two reasons... 1)it's something I do at times in my life and 2) I'm pregnant and didn't know what to put in the blog-- to tell, not to tell, to obsess, not to obsess too much... the excuses go on and on... so, here is a status style listing of what life has been like since April or so... I promise to try to do this better in the future! :) Best if read from the bottom if a stickler for chronology...
September 2009:
- I don't know about the other mom's whose kids have gone off to school, but I have not layed on the couch and eaten ONE bon bon yet! What's up with that???
- so far so good...
- any other moms out there following the bus to school tomorrow? Am I excited and concerned or neurotic and micromanaging things? The truth... even if it hurts :l
August 2009:
- What did I do this weekend? Aaliyah's room is "big-girl-ified" and baby's room is still a catastrophic mess... getting anxious.
- Gross gestational diabetes test at Marshfield Clinic today-- take two! And a re-check on my travel restriction... only 9 weeks left!
- Aaliyah was a ROCK star at the dentist and the doctor today-- even through the 4 shots she received... and is now the proud owner of a Glow-Doodle. Yay for my big girl!!!!
- Aaliyah and Alicia have colds... but not of the swine persuasion... guess it's best to get it over with before school starts.
- Ramadan Mubarak everyone!
- Let the "nesting" begin!
- is almost back from vacation-- almost back to real life... sigh
- is vacationing!
- can't wait to EAT her way through the State Fair on Thursday! Cream Puffs, Corn on the Cob, baked potato and flavored milk, here I come...
July 2009:
- ahhh... camp is behind me. vacation is looming-- let the summer begin!
- hi ho, hi ho... its off to work I go! Meetings and budgets today--almost like a real working girl, how'd that happen?
- Baby looked great! Yay and alhamdullilah! Glucose test will have to be re-done, Marshfield "lost track" of me and let too much time elapse before I could get poked... oh well, guess I can look forward to the grody orange drink again next mo
- duas, prayers, crossed fingers... whatever you've got... our 3rd of 4 ultrasounds and diabetes test is tomorrow noon.
- belly is just a kickin' away-- never a dull moment with this little one! I finally get the whole, "there's the foot, there's the butt" thing..
- Camp is half over! Cheer or sigh?-- I know which one I'm doing.... but the kids, counselors and teachers may be feeling differently.
- just got back from the most enjoyable family reunion I've ever been to... Shabbar had a great time too! SO glad I went-- what a fun weekend!
- Thanks for all the birthday wishes everyone! 32 is pretty great so far-- GASP, am I really that old?
- two people told me to take a nap today... think I'm looking tired? I took the hint-- went to be at 7 pm tonight!
- One more day-- can you handle the excitement??? Camp WILL happen, can't stop a train :)
- 4 days and counting...and still SO much to do
- is home and working her tail off...
- is enjoying the Chicago wedding and the visit with her Razvi relation. These folks know how to have fun!
- shouldn't be wasting time on facebook today-- or any day for the next weeks for that matter... darn you facebook and all your fun status updates, quizzes, chats....
June 2009:
- It's 4:13, been up since 3:11... dum de dumde dumb hormones!
- Ahhh.....heat you've finally come back to wisconsin. Just in time to turn on the air conditioner :)
- Are pigs flying? Has Hell frozen over? My brother has joined facebook... will wonders never cease?
- wonders if two goof ball quizzes a day is too much? I'm not so hot on the "how well do you know..." ones though.
- AHHH..... I love early bed times! For Aaliyah and for me!
- three days of rain on the horizon? Say it ain't so!
- Had a really nice long weekend!! and doesn't want to get back into the swing just yet. Sigh.

- loves Loves LOVES this weather! And thinks.... hmmmm. Maybe a walk to Politos for dinner...
May 2009:
- probably looked like one of those cheesey granny cut-outs in the garden today, bent at the waist, digging in plant after plant...charming!
- got to dig in the dirt today-- yay spring!
- have you ever had one of those days where nothing you eat is actually what you were craving? Argghh.

April 2009:

- is trivia-ing with Captain in an Ice Crisis.... and anxiously awaiting the return of her baby-girl.
- loves peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and mi goreng-indonesian noodles
- conqured the 7th and 8th graders at John Muir today and it was awesome! Makes me miss teaching very much...
