What a day...and it's only 11:20!

Gee Wilikers Batman, I haven't written in a while!
11:12am.
Had to wake-up early to drive Chris to work, that sucked, because I was so tozy in bed!
Stayed up after that and chatted with Katie on MSN...found out she's moving back to Ottawa. :(
I'm so sad.
It was said that they would be here for at least a year. They would meet Fig! Ohwell...she'll just have to come on MSN more often, so we can chat!
I had a doctors appointment at 9:30 so I decided to leave early and drop off my library books at the Library and pay my late dues. So I get there, and I remember that they don't have Interac, so I decided to go to the bank right near by, but couldn't get into the right lane, so ended up on a round about route, got to the bank, and was mad 'cause I had to pay a $1.50 fee to use their bank, but whatever, I did it, then I realized I should get going to my appointment, so I get there, and I'm early, but they see me right away. Figs doing great. Heartbeats good, blood pressure stable, weight...we don't talk about anymore. :S
So I see her again in 2 weeks...35 weeks!!
So after my appointment I decide I'll drop my books off at the Library here, I can't find parking near, so I drive around until i find a spot, then get out, trudge my way up to the library...and it's closed. ACK! I was so mad. I was 5 mins early, so I walked across the street to the mall to get something to eat 'cause I'm starving, and I realize that the little food stand is no longer there, and I do NOT feel like walking to the end of the mall to the grocery store, so THEN I go into the Hallmark store to pick up two cards, then go back to the library, to pay the stupid dues and renew my Baby books.
THEN I go back into town go to Walmart to buy some Detergent because we want all our clothes washed before we move, and I got "Gain" I'm excited to use it. I think it's Gain that has those stupid commericals on tv, where the guy is smelling the girls clothes and her dress gets sucked up from his nose? I think. Ya, well i'm excited to see what it smells like. I love yummy clean smelling things!
Anyway so ya, I'm starving so I grab a box of King Dongs and an Orange Juice and now I'm here.
I gotta do some cleaning, and a bit more packing, and then go get Chris for lunch.
That is my day so far.
I will write more in a bit.
*sigh*

Ebony...Ivory. Living in Perfect Harmony.

10:16am.
Blah.
I feel crappy.
It was so cold waking up this morning, I woke-up again this morning tho at like 9ish and my kat Kizzers was snuggled into me on the side, Fluffy was snuggled in on the other side, and Jackers was snuggled as close to me at the foot of the bed by my foot.
haha. My fuzzy Children.
So yesterday worked 10-6:30 forgot that the trainee was going to be there at the same time, so I could show her how to open, and I was a few minutes late, so she was already counting tills. Which is good that she knows to ask a Manager what she could be doing, instead of just sitting around waiting.
Yesterday was not a busy day, it was me, Kelsea, and Sonia at CSS and Alyna on tills.
Kelsea and I were excited because we totally thought we'd get out early.
But of course, were not busy all day, and as soon as there's about 10 minutes left before we close, people pack in, and take forever long to do their purchases.
So that sucked.
Finally everyone was gone, and we could do our paperwork, and there was an order left in the system that Kelsea and I had ended for some Insurance Claim, and it wouldn't let us void the Gift Card Transactions.
So I didn't get to show Sonia how to do the computer stuff to get to the report printing.
And in the end IT got a call to run POS.
So yesterday was a bust training wise. I could tell that Sonia was also getting overwhelmed, because she thought she messed up to many times, and she didn't balance. But in the end, the mistakes were fixed, and we found her money, so no biggie.
I got Bring it On!!!! I started watching it last night, in bed but started to fall asleep. I can repeat most of the movie from heart anyway...but I still love it!
We watched "Guess Who" which was a really funny movie and ate Pizza from Bills. It is the best pizza in the world. You get full after two pieces!
Chris also bought a baby exersaucer and a leapfrog vibrating bouncy chair for Fig!
It's almost time!
Speaking of almost time, my time at Future Shop is almost up...pretty much just a week left, depending on whether I work the last chunk of August (since that schedules not up yet)
I am scared and excited all at the same time! :D
Alrighty these are getting tre long, so I shall go.
I gotta get ready for work, and then go sign up for Prenatal courses!

Ooh Baby I Love Your Way

8:49am.
I woke-up to the sound of my alarm, so I turned it off, and remembered the dream I was having...it was Christmas time, and I was sitting on the floor waiting paitently to unwrap my Christmas gifts.
My Nan and Aunt were on their way, and my mom (who wasn't really my mom in real life but a lady at work Myra) was on the phone trying to see whom she could get to put the animals in the barn.
Then I had a sock puppet named Hushpuppy on my stomache, and I was laying on my back doing his impression...ever see Lambchops Play Along!? End of Dream. That's all I remember...weird.
So I went downstairs and grabbed a bowl of my non-creamy, very dry, and curddled Macaroni and Cheese, three Bite Sized Halloween Chocolate Bars, and a glass of Chocolate Milk and went upstairs to read up on all my favorite things on the Information Super Highway.
So that's today, thus far.
Yesterday was my 2nd day off. I felt crappy, slept in, woke-up cleaned up the kitchen, took Spaghetti Sauce out to defrost, made Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies, then read some of my book Nora Roberts "Dance Upon the Air" I can't put it down! It is soooo good!
I had just finished reading a book that I started yesterday called "Suzannes Diary for Nicholas" By James Patterson. It was a really good book too, and I later realized it had already been a TV Movie, because I was like I already know this!
It's not his usual style tho, usually James Patterson's books are scary and about criminals and such...you may know his books, based on two movies called "Along Came a Spider" and " Kiss the Girls."
Anyway so ya, I have been doing alot of reading lately.
Umm...oh ya, yesterday we went to a bbq at Chris' friend Cotty's house, it was sooo yummy!
Ferg and Rhett came and one of Chris' old Jr. High buddy's whom he hadn't seen in quite sometime.
They all had to move this heavy sucker of a Slate Pool Table into a building container.
After the BBQ Chris and I went to Superstore so I could show him the tv stand/book shelf I want for our new place, but it was no longer there, so we got some Milk, 12$ box of Halloween Chocolate Bars (BARF) Bread, and...Hotdiggity Buns.
Then we went and looked at our dream truck at Finnerons, and we drooled. It will be ours..oh yes...it will be ours. It's a sexy black four door GMC Canyon.
Then we went over to the Chevy dealership to look at their version the Colarado they had a white one...it didn't look as nice as the black one, but White is the color we'd go with this time, becuase Black Vehicles, tho they look better in the shade, they are friggin' dirt magnets, and are super hot inside. Always.
The Chevy also has annoying black plastic around the wheelwell? whereas the Canyon is painted the same color as the vehicle...it's not plastic. So I like Canyon.
Then we came home, I started my mac n cheese, then I read some, and watched a bit of Grease.
Then went to bed.
The day before, which was my first day off, I had a dr. appointment, found out I don't have blood clots! YAY...got to hear Figs heartbeat, then went home and slept.
Chris and I went for dinner at Chelseys she bought Little Ceasars Pizzas. Mine was really undercooked, but I did'nt want to be impolite, and have Chris say I was being fussy, so I ate it, and instantly felt sick the rest of the night. Chris later went to steal a piece of my 'Za, and was like did you know it's totally undercooked? I was like...TRUCCCK.
We watched Rockstar: INXS..I LOVE that show. It's wayyy better then American Idol, 'cause they sing good songs, like Nirvana and such!
So there. Your all caught up.
I am gonna go lie down in bed and read some more before I have to go to work.
Which is, the suck.

I See Starz

11:15pm.
So just finished cleaning a paper pile that was in our bedroom. All of it old bills. I had to rip each one up individually. Quite tedious.
I am so friggin' hot right now, I want so much to have a shower but I'm lazy...
Chris went to a pre-Grad Reunion thingy at a Pub, because he doesn't want to go to the Grad dinner tomorrow, because it's expensive, and he's just not into it.
My legs are in such rough shape right now. My left one is really sore, and I don't know if it's from the Charlie Horse I got yesterday morning, or if it's something else.
Yesterday really sucked, having a day off, and then having to go to the hospital to get an Ultrasound done on each leg to see if I have blood Clots. :S
I still haven't heard anything...which I think is a good sign...'cause they'd call you right away to let you know..so fingers crossed that I won't have any clots, and won't be put on bed rest with blood thinners...
I keep seeing little twinkle stars...just the odd one here and there for no apparent reason...when I bend down and get up really fast I see stars...but that's because all the blood rushed to my head...but while I'm upright....kinda scares me...
I'm totally messed up...I can't wait to go back to my normal self...with the baby on the outside!
Chris and I have a lot of work to do! We only have like 2 weeks and a bit to pack our crap up and get the truck out! :S
Anyway it's 11:20 and I'm semi tired, and I just saw some more stars, and I have to work at 8:30 and I am yucky and in need of a shower, so I am gonna go.
Ciaoz.

I smell like Chip Truck

9:30pm.
Just got back from my parents, my moms cousin Jinny was visiting, so I went to say hi, and ate some of their dinner hehe.
Worked 9-5:30 it sucked. It was the first day I have driven since my feet have been sunburnt....Chris drove all weekend in Vic and whatnot...so I had to drive him to work, and then myself to work, it hurt 'cause you have to have your foot bent most of the time.
I got to work, and my fan was gone. I was so sad. I was sweatin' la la la long long le long long long.
There was quite a few of us there today, which was strange. Didn't need that many peeps, but whatevs.
My sister had apparently told my mom about my swollen feet, so my mom came down to work, and called the doctor and made an appointment for me to go in at 2:40pm. THEN she waited, and made me talk to Jason the Mgr. and make sure he let me go. haha.
So at 2:30ish Chris came and got me, and I dropped him back off at work, and I drove to the drs. The Doctor said that my feet were definetly more swollen then the usual swollen. She asked how many days a week I work, and I said 40 hrs. 5 days a week, and she was like Do you have to? And I was like uhh...ya! So she said ok, well I think you should probably cut your hours back, OR I can write you a doctors note for your work that you need to be off your feet more, to sit down any chance you can get so I opted for the doctors note.
I so can't NOT work right now. And plus that would screw up stuff at work. I shall suck it up!
Chris thought that since I went to my doctors that I wasn't going to go back to work, so he thought in his head that I would pick him up after work when he got off at 4:30 but I didn't get off until 5:30 so he started to walk home in the blistering heat, and ended up having to get Fergy to pick him up.
I got home, and got dressed and went to my dads for dinner, he changed the potatos at work, so they were soooo cripsy french fries. Delicious!
Chris and Ferg rode their bikes to the river to cool off.
I came home and he was watching Old School.
Oh before I went to my dads for dinner, I stopped at the Library and got some books, and some pregnancy help books, and I had an overdue charge of 7 dollars! Can you believe that! And it sucks, 'cause I was totally done the books wayyyy before the due date!
Ok, ciao!

Mom Where's That MeatLoaf!?

9:31am.
I. Am. Friggin'. Sore.
I thought it would be nice to spend some time at the Lake letting my poor white skin get some Vitamin D...well....it got more then that....It got boynt.
I am in pure pain and agony. It is the suck!
Who thinks to put suntan lotion on the tops of their feet!?!? (Well any SMART person would put suntan lotion on period. But not me, I told Chris I don't burn) Ha.
Ya so my feet are sooooooooooo burnt, and sooooooooooo swollen, I can't even walk properly, since my feet don't bend anymore. :(
I am a mess.
So ya, we went to the Lake, Ferg and Suzanne and Johnny met up with us there. I hope they crispified too.
After the Lake Chris and I were both starving, so we stopped at the Gas Station and got THE BEST ICE-CREAM CONES EVER! They were HUGE!
We went for dinner at Chris' parents, and he filled up a rubbermaid bucket of cold water for me, to soak my feet in, and when we got home, he popped in "Clueless" and filled up my foot bath with ice-cubes and water...it felt so good!
I was all settled in just watching my movie, when Chris asked if I'd like to go see Wedding Crashers...I was like...uhh...ya....so we went.
I sat through the feet throbbing for some good laughs!
I love Owen Wilson.
Ya so that was yesterday.
On Friday we went to Victoria and did some shopping Chris got some Prefab shorts from Costco and I got a pair of Mat Capris from Old Navy for 12$ and two Mat shirts from Thyme Mat.
We went for lunch at the Cactus Club restaurant, then booked it to the concert stadium, but we missed our meeting time so my sister/niece, Brother/Sis-in-law/kids all got in early, and got to sit in the front row on the floor....they tried to hold them off as long as they could until we go there, but we couldn't find parking. But it's just as well...I wouldn't have been able to sit on the floor, since everyone was crammed in like Sardines, and couldn't leave to go to the bathroom.
I had to leave about 10 times.
It was a good concert. I felt a little uncomfortable just with the loud bass echoeing through my stomache, and I was sore, and tired, and there were tons of screaming girls....
but it was a good time.
We drove home that night.
And that was Fri/Sat.
Now it's Sunday. Our one year anniversary.
I am gonna spend it relaxing, since I can't walk.
later.

bucket

8:30am.
Mmm just ate two Banana Bread Muffins...DEEEEEEEE....Liiiiiii...CCCCCCIOUS!
If I do say so myself.
Chris and I made them last night.
It's such a nice day today. Which is good, 'cause this weekends been pretty much a bust weather wise...I'm so happy I booked it off! Yay it won't rain for the fireworks maybe!??
Anyway, worked 10-6:30 yesterday.
It was THE worst. day. EVER! Seriously. April and I felt like walking out. It sucked sooo much!
We were soooooo busy ALL day, and one of the girls on till (who's first day back at work was yesterday) worked for 2 hrs then went home. She wasn't sick, she just didn't feel like working, and her mom was in town. I was like...wtf...why is she even here. I bet she asks to leave early, or DOES go home early because she's sick. If she does, that is going to be so irratating.
Maybe I should start playing up the pregnancy bit, so I can go home when I don't feel like working...not saying that she's faking it. I just don't want to be at work either, but I suck it up for my 8 hours a day, come home with my big swollen feet and put them up just like anybody else does.
That's just me tho.
Whatevs.
Anyway, ya so yesterday was the uttmost of suck. So much so, that I changed my Leave date from September 17th to the 1st.
Yup. I can't take it anymore, I don't want to suffer anymore then I have to. And I feel really sick about it, because we need the money, and I don't like having to leave everybody with a crop of newbies...but it's for the best interest of me and Figz.
After work, Chris and I went to his parents house to visit with his G-Ma, and Aunt.
His aunt always brings us a bounty of T.P and Paper Towel products because her boyfriend works at the Scott Paper Towel place in Vancouver, so yesterday we got a huge surplus of Toilet Paper to take us well into the next century. ;)
Just talking to a friend Bill, he's in Prague right now!!!! it's 5:45 where he is.
Must be nice!
anyway gonna go and enjoy this beautiful day!
ciao.
