So today I am working from home (well, my parent's house as my home is not quite ready) due to some wintery weather we had come through last night and into this morning. A mixture of sleet and snow graced my eyes this morning as I rolled out of bed. And of course, me being the wonderful employee I am, decided to try and make the trek into work. Well I only got as far as the gas station in Quakertown before my boss called me and said to get my butt back home. So since she signs my paycheck, I obliged. So I've been back and forth from the kitchen to the computer to the laundry room trying to keeping busy. I'm extremely restless these days. I believe it's for a couple of reasons:
A. My house is just about done so I can't stop thinking about all the decorating in the bedrooms I want to do before the baby arrives.
B. I've only got about 5 weeks left and feel as big as a house so I don't want to just sit around because that makes me feel bigger.
C. I've done everything I can possibly do to prepare for the baby beside decorating the nursery! (washed all the clothes, went thru my checklist to make sure I have all the necessary "equipment" for his/her arrival, put together my "binder" of important information for the hospital (thanks Carey), packed my suitcase, picked out a color for the nursery, did my hospital pre-check in, scheduled my appointment with the pediatrician, etc.)
So when you add all of these together, you get one bored and restless individual. :(
Plus, we're trying to save money so I can't just go out shopping every time I'm bored!! Ugghhh...
So on a better note, the drywall is all hung and it looks like the spackeling will be complete by Friday!!!! And if that's the case, on Saturday, my parents, Brandon and Adelina are coming over to help prime and paint the upstairs. And with the help of everyone, we could possibly be done by the end of the weekend! Which of course means that I can at least start hanging things on the walls and schedule the carpet installation! Ahhh...if by some miracle we are ready to move in all the furniture for the bedrooms and nursery by next weekend....well I just think I might cry. So please do me a favor....keep your fingers crossed and say a little prayer that all will go according to schedule and February 7th will mark the day that we officially move into our new home.
I'll be sure to keep you posted....
