I'm not used to being so unselfish.

I'm probably the worst pregnant mother because I took a z-pack antibiotic to get me through this funk and haven't even really thought about "unsafe" food that may or may not be contaminated. Free food - since when do we question!?

Excuse #1: After a horrible work week last week and a bad weekend, I didn't want to risk missing any work or contaminating my whole department this week. Okay okay, I was also so fed up with the coughing fits, the on and off sleep, the sinus pressure & headaches, and my tired body

I hate not knowing what's going on in my body. It's all a guess, because do we know what's normal anymore? No, not really. Do I have allergies? Do I have sinus issues? Is it winter and colds are an epidemic? I'm getting my flu shot on Monday.

Baby, I just hope you're a fighter. I'm sorry if I'm already making your life difficult.

I'm not used to being so unselfish.

it's cute and yummy

I didn't mean to sound so negative...
any way, I love Mr Smith. I'm going to bed and I'm just ready to kiss him again with my non-germy lips. I would be so upset if I made him sick with any of my germs floating around this place.

3 things I realized I loved this week:
z-pack
gatorade
Mr Smith kisses on the lips

And whoops, I just remembered I forgot to put the wets in the dryer.
night night!

And so it begins, again

At what point do you ... 1. Keep holding on waiting for inspiration to come 2. Try something different 3. Let go & walk away I'd say most of us are usually somewhere in between #1 & #2, but there are occasional moments where I find myself locked into another Jane Austin film with some oreos & milk ignoring reality all together. Today, I'm trying to rise above some level of complacency & clear my mind at your expense. Mr Smith & I had a good run of it, but since blogs became obsolete in 2017 while Instragram chained us all to algorithms, I had no audience nor desire to write in this world. But times change, after it murders our souls, and alas we are famished for an authentic keyboard with less distractions again. So, let's catch up. They say it comes in threes... Since our job change in 2017, we experienced three more moves, three additional job changes (that don't necessarily align with the moves), and three additional children. 2018-2022 were ver...

Breaking Silence for Religion

I've never been good at being concise. I like words too much. I think outloud. And I haven't had time to blog all these conversations & posts & mental thoughts and it's eating at me to write it all down, to get it out there. These are some words that no one understands anymore: love, tolerance, faith, forgiveness, covenants, judgment, respect, moderation, self-worth, humility, equality...at least if they say they do, I wouldn't believe them. In truth, I think we should be forever understanding what these words mean. Yet I hear people affirming over & over again in their actions & with their voice that they want to be right and they want you to know it & accept the choices they're making. So much for democracy & freedom. They might say "to each his own" but I'm not idealistic anymore, people don't really believe that. I reference "the world" a lot. Let's clarify what I mean. We can start with Holly...

We're patiently waiting

Picture Mr Smith putting together the pack-n-play. He was so cute. Mostly when he had to read the directions. Do we have a child? Don't ask such silly questions. Hopefully it won't collect too much dust in 5.5 months. We're ready now . . . (but not really) It has a changing thing and a removable bassinet that vibrates. I'm okay with not needing a changing table. It will probably mean we won't get a crib for awhile too. Next we need to hear from our baby/exercise friends a good car seat & jogging stroller (maybe ones that work together)... Any favorites? Then a blanket . . . Then a breast pump . . . Then a diaper bag. . . Then lots of diapers, toys & cute clothes. And even a mobile. Then they get older and there's even more things. Mr Smith is just so thrilled. I'd love to hear about any products that you recommend/absolutely love having. Here is one thing you can do to annoy Mr Smith: go ...
