MakingLists: Lots and lots of pre-baby projects. With the changes in my job (see below), I have a lot more time on my hands. I spent yesterday making a very long list of projects (large and small) that I want to tackle before little Arthur comes in October. I've got about 30 total projects. I'm starting on them tomorrow. We'll start with the small easy ones and work into the larger ones. Hopefully, hopefully I can knock out multiple this coming week.
On the Job: Big changes this last week... resulting in a change in position. I am now a part time work at home contractor. I'm a bit confused on what exactly is happening with the project, but I guess it's not really my call. We'll see how it goes. At least this change makes my decision when it comes to maternity leave in October.
Farmer's Market Finds: J and I walked down to grab some yummy sausages for lunch. J surprised me with a slaw dog comprised of a spicy sausage, cole slaw, and barbeque sauce. Very good! I may have found a new favorite. We also grabbed some kettle corn and nectarines. Next week, I plan on having a meal plan worked out to pick up vegetables and fruit for specific recipes.
Crafting: On Saturday, I got in the mood for some scrapping and dove back in. The family album is now up to April 2013. My plan is to get completely up to date before Arthur arrives. In fact, that project is one my giant list.
Watching: We finished series 7 of Doctor Who and started in on Warehouse 13 with the boys. They love both those shows now. We'll have to watch more Warehouse during school breaks. On their last weekend here, we saw Pacific Rim in theaters. Very fun monster movie. The boys loved the fight scenes.
J and I have started catching up on our recently or currently airing shows. We're caught up with Warehouse 13. We dove back into Wilfred (US version). That show is dark and twisted, but I love it. Also, we started Continuum S2. We've heard a lot of good things. I'm waiting to see what happens. Starting on Suits next and hopefully Game of Thrones.
Pregnancy Update: Basically I am uncomfortable 100& of the time. But that's normal. I'm starting to feel the fatigue creeping back in with the onset of the third trimester. Other than that, I think everything's going well. I have another doctor's appointment and ultrasound next week. Hopefully another good update.
Shopping Scores: Randomly Amazon had a sale on a crib mattress. I snapped it up even though we don't have a crib yet. I have to jump on the deals when I see them instead of waiting and buying everything later a more expensive price. I also picked up the next volume of A Song of Fire and Ice to be ready when I want to dive back into Westeros.
Project: Organizing my life... Okay, that just sounds like a crazy plan, but I really want to get some things organized and ready before the baby comes. He could technically make an appearance at any time so it's becoming time sensitive to get some of things taken care of. And I'm feeling the urge to get the big nursery objects in place. Really I just want a rocker, crib, and stroller/car seat system in place within the next month. Then I can think about the little things.
