I'm not dead.... yet.

Ahhh... I'm baaaaaccckkkk! Can't guarantee for how long... I will try to update more regularly than 2 months... it's a start.

What I'm doing:
  • work, full time now, permanent, with benefits (that was big for me, 1 less thing to be anxious a bout)
  • love above new job
  • hang with Mr. Man
  • recently went to Las Vegas for Easter to hang with the parents. Had fun.
  • went and got me-self knocked up. New person is due October 15th or so.
What I'm not doing:
  • running or walking on a regular basis. Yes, I walk to the refrigerator or run to the bathroom, but no "long" walks every Saturday like I used to. I should really get back into that.
  • any crafting, whatsoever. Who's got the time?
  • stressing over this pregnancy like I did with the first one. I mean, I take care of myself and all... but I'm taking it all in stride, no worrying about every little thing.
  • breathing through my nose. Freaking pregnancy induced congestion has hit me hard!
What I'm watching:
  • New Adventures of Old Christine
  • Modern Family
  • The Middle - strictly for the whispering kid
  • Army Wives
  • Grey's
  • Private Practice
  • Desperate Housewives
  • Tori & Dean- Home Sweet Hollywood
  • Housewives of New York
What the future holds:
  • I turn 40 soon. OMG. 40. When I was young, 40 was almost dead!
  • I hope to compete in the Nike 1/2 Marathon for the 7th straight year this year. The race is on October 17th. New person is due October 15th. You do the math.
  • When new person arrives, the whole kit and kaboodle will be handled differently this time. I will IMMEDIATELY start taking my drugs again. I mean the second that baby pops out, my outreached hand will be demanding Prozac and Ativan. My mother will be living here for at least 3 months. And I vow to get more sleep right off the bat.
  • How in the hell will I be able to take care of a new born AND a toddler? OMG.
So, that's the update. Hope it holds us over for a little bit.

If I can figure it out with two, you can too! Don't stress about it- you don't have to have all the answers now- you'll just figure it out as you go and have some laughs doing it. Sorry you had to give up on crafting- time is in even shorter supply with two little people running around! :)
Didn't realize you'd gone back to full time recently- hope it's working out well. Let's talk soon so we can properly catch up.
Congrats again on your awesome news!
