Random News

I haven't felt much like posting lately, so this should be quite the assortment of thoughts!

-- Yesterday I had my 28 week checkup. Everything is going really well; nothing to indicate that it's not. Anthony's heart rate was at 140. I got to drink the orange glucose stuff and they are testing my blood to make sure I don't have gestational diabetes, and make sure my iron is still doing okay. No news is good news! Unfortunately, my blood pressure was a little high, especially since I'm usually perfect and have even been a little low during pregnancy, but I'm just chalking it up to an "off" day.
-- Saturday I had a 6x6 album scrapbook class - I love these! This is the 3rd Christmas album I've put together (all different) and they are so fun. Now I just have to insert the pictures!
-- Snow! Monday morning's commute was just fabulous! What normally takes me 25 minutes to get to work took 1 1/2 hours! Wrecks everywhere. It was pretty bad, and we didn't even get that much!
-- I finally sent out Christmas cards this week. I got home yesterday and checked my mail; 4 of them had been sent back to ME and not the addressee! I'm really irritated with the post office right now... don't they know which address is the TO: ?? Hello!?
-- It's Party weekend! Tomorrow night I have 2! First, I'll go to my admin Christmas dinner with all of the girls. Luckily, they agreed to do the ornament exchange first so I can rush off to Jason's work party, where I'll have dinner with him and try to be the good wife. :) Guess that means I should get lots of sleep tonight since I'm not one to stay awake very long right now!
-- Saturday night we plan on driving around, looking at Christmas lights. I love this tradition. I wanted to go to the Winter-Garden-Aglow this year, too, but walking around in the 25 degree cold, 7 months pregnant, just doesn't appeal to me right now. Definitely next year, though!
-- I'm so excited... only 8 days until we fly out to CA! I'm praying for good weather all around... the last thing I want is to stress about that!

Can I just say "Wow"? That's a lot of crazy stuff going on there. I couldn't imagine driving to work. I think if it snowed in the Bay Area, people would stop commuting so far.

Hope you have a safe trip, sounds like things are moving right along with Anthony. Are they checking your blood pressure again soon? What was the reading? Hope you have a good time at your parties take it easy.
