Fall behind
April 19th, 2007
I’m all worn out from a grocery shopping trip! I haven’t had a very productive week; I’ve done some dishes, some laundry, showered, and now, shopped. I’ve read a lot– reread some Discworld and the Chrestomanci Quartet and read Sabriel by Garth Nix finally. I started Lirael last night but I decided to put off any more reading until this evening.
The last prenatal appointment was also my monthly deadline for writing. I got a little over 1/10th of the way to the amount Kevin requested. 
At least that means it would be almost impossible to do WORSE this month. But you can see by my progressbar that I’m having a lazy start again.
To be honest, I’ve spent way too much time refreshing the blogs of various people I know, especially (but not exclusively) the people with babies. Why aren’t you people telling me more about your babies? I’ve got one, growing inside me right now!
When I was a kid, I somehow developed the idea that an unborn baby was hooked into its mother’s nervous system: that it would see and feel what the mom saw and felt. Legacies of that idea still follow me; I have to remind myself that if I want the baby to have any chance of hearing me, I have to say words out loud. The baby mostly lives in a little cave inside of me, connected to me mainly via circulatory stuff. Well, a soft cave. Okay, a sack.

HI just wanted you to know that someone does read your blog.
Maybe you should just go with the flow and not try to analyze eveything that happens to you. Remember this is a beautiful experience and the most amazing expeience that you will ever go through. So enjoy - also the work begins after the baby is born so rest up now because it does get very hard after the baby is born. But that is the way it is suppose to be. Take care love you Aunt Patty
