50 days left....wowza!

Only 50 days left to make it to the ever-important 36 week mark.

I can't believe it is almost over. Seems like a long time left to wait now that things are getting more and more difficult.
I couldn't go to the waterpark because it was too far/too long to be in the car. bummer.

I was having contractions for over an hour 2 nights ago. very very scary. thankfully that went away.

Today I had to go to the doctor for some other problem I was having...everything is okay, but now I have to have an ultrasound on my gall bladder on Monday.

Yikes! who knew having twins could be so darn freaky? I know they warned me, but I feel a bit like I'm walking on eggshells! Hopefully all these little things won't add up to anything big for me or the babies. Now we just gotta make it these last 7 weeks or so and the babies should be fine.

Thankfully my husband is a complete Nazi about taking care of me. He won't let me do ANYTHING but fold laundry. It definitely makes you feel cared for when someone is watching out for you like that.

what a nice little hubby.

6 day vacation coming up!

so today was another grueling day in retail for a super-prego. Anything over 5 hours is a form of slow and painful torture!

Thankfully, I'm still working, and it is still okay...but the strange pain in one leg and the fire-like hot pain in that same area is quickly getting old.

Sure, I know things could be worse, but it would be nice if I could figure out exactly why the burning is happening. For that matter, I would like to figure out how to make it STOP!

Sunday shifts are extra long...over 9 hours on the old feet is not so much fun. On the upside, tomorrow is the last full day I have to go to work for the ENTIRE week! I'm not going back to work until next Monday, that is, unless, one of my employees decides to kill another.

Strangely, this is not really much of a joke as I have a small group of folks in the store who seem determined to make life miserable for anyone else not in their circle. Fear not! I feel the reign of terror coming to an end! It is my hope that the folks who are not so nice to the rest of the store will eventually figure out that they do not have a place in my little lotion-heaven of a store.

Anyhow, there is a little waterpark adventure planned for this week. I am thinking I could probably go up for the day with the family and come home at night. Everyone else who is going will be staying for 3 days, but that might be a bit too much for me...not to mention, I don't really have a swimming suit that fits anymore!

well...I'm off to the couch for another night of interrupted sleep. If you're bored this week and want to come over for a visit, gimme a jingle!
