Maybe it's because I slept all damn day. I really did. Went to bed this morning between 3:30am and 4am ...sometime in there. Got up about 12 hours later...
Okay, so I got up a few times... to go to the bathroom mostly, but Gabe woke me up with a great breakfast. He went grocery shopping after work, and came home and made me a fresh fruit bowl - bananas, oranges & kiwis. *drool* I'm not one who can eat right after crawling out of bed... but Gabe was right there with me, laying next to me - feeding me. I HAD to munch on the fruit... and it tasted so freakin' good. He said it was to thank me for working on his legs last night before he went to work... that they felt so much better. I just like making him feel good - he takes such good care of me, that it's only fair that I take good care of him, too.
((TMI WARNING)) Today, I've had loose stools all day... and from what I hear, that's a precursor to labor. Maybe... but damn, does it happen a week ahead of time?? I've kinda had my heart set on my baby girl being a Gemini ... I'm starting to accept that she'll be a Cancer. I'm gonna love and spoil her all to pieces anyway... I just understand Geminis more. Me, my best friend, my b-day twin (Sabrina), among several others. I don't have much experience with Cancers - my cousin, Eva, is the Cancer I grew up with...always kinda quiet and sweet. It doesn't matter to me WHEN she's born - as long as it's soon... Mommy's uncomfortable and achy. I just want her healthy and happy.
So, I guess I'm just trying to figure out in my head when labor's going to start... sleeping all day, loose stool, general discomfort... I sleep fine - which is good. I just get comfy for a couple hours then have to get up and pee, so I have to reconfigure and reposition my body when I go back to bed... hip pain is a biatch!!
Not just the hips that are falling apart though... I'm whining about my knees, my hips, my lower back ... not just my hips but my ENTIRE PELVIC GIRDLE - it feels like it's about to come apart. I've also got a knot in my back right between my left shoulder blade and my spine - ouchie!
Aside from feeling weird today...
Gabe and I are going to try and go fishing in the morning for a couple hours... we haven't been to Galveston since before Ike landed, and I really just want to get in the water before Val is born. Tomorrow will be like a mini-babymoon ... so today, I'm in partial-nesting mode. ALL of the dishes are clean, save for 1 pan and a couple plastic containers that wouldn't fit in the dishwasher. I'm continuing to wash clothes - started last night - but I want them all clean and hung up tonight. The only problem is the POS washer/dryer in my apartment. The washer doesn't spin properly, so I have to spin heavy stuff twice... the dryer isn't drying completely. I usually have to dry heavy stuff on 2 cycles... seems like 3 is what's being called for now. I don't have a small vacuum to clean out the lint thingy... the trap that comes out? Yeah, that gets cleaned between every cycle and every load. The part that holds it? Well, it seems to need more extensive cleaning... I'll be calling maintenance first thing Monday morning... no sense in calling them now - since they don't work weekends unless it's an emergency.
blahhhhh
