As fall progresses so does project baby. The last few weeks have been pretty busy both at work and at home. At work we are down five positions in my department. My coordinator, just turned in her resignation letter this past week, which stressed me out because now I have to find a replacement for her and train them and find my temporary replacement and train them. In addition to those two positions we have three other positions we have to fill. Now I was doing extremely well in not stressing these past months but I couldn't help it this past week. My coordinator is so good and helps me out so much it feels like I can't possibly find another person so good. Anyhoo, works just crazy. I think my boss may be worried I won't return after the baby as he has been showing me weird flow charts where I am promoted. But alas I can't really believe them because the reason we are down so many people is because no one feels appreciated aka the company refuses to promote anyone. I won't get into it but alas I think corporate America doesn't value loyalty like they did back in our parents days. People can be easily replaced because there are so many people out of work. If u complain or ask for a raise the big wigs don't care, they just get another body and it doesn't matter if that body is only half as good. They would rather pay the new body more han give the old body a decent raise. I don't get it. Alas, it is what it is, the economy sucks.
Anyhow I try not to think about work when I am not there because there is just too much work I can't get done when I am already doing too many people's jobs so why worry about it. Someday someone will figure it out. Meanwhile the ceonof my company just took home a record bonus and we just reported a record summer on wall streetl.....anyhow, I don't get it? What I do get is that my daughter likes to kick and punch me. She certainly likes to give my insides a work out. She even kicked me in the vagina. Hope that isn't too TMI for yah but it is the weirdest feeling in the world to be kicked in the vagina! I am getting pretty excited to meet her!
The fall seems to be progressing, just yesterday it was August and now we are closing out September. This Wednesday hubby and I take our hospital tour and visit the maternity ward. I have no idea what questions to ask and I am relying on my forum ladies to help with questions. So far they have some good questions like private room vs shared room? Can u eat while in labor? Can hubby stay with the baby the entire time? What to pack and when to have ur bag ready? Do u prerigister? So much to remember on Wednesday.
Also on Wednesday is my 1 hour glucose test to test for diabetes. I guess a ton of people fail it and have to take a 3 hour fasting test. I hope I pass andi am trying to eat no sugar this weekend but that is hard. I think I will fast the night before. Eat dinner early and then not eat till 9am. I hope that works.
Besides these events we finished garage sale number 2 and took the remaining stuff to goodwill. Baby girls room is ready for big items like a rug, bookcase, daybed and other decorations. We even got the bonus room fixed up for the onslaught of guests we are expecting. I hired a monthly cleaning service and OMG it's the best money I have spent! I cant get over how clean my house is!
Next weekend, the first of October, we plan to take a break from project baby and go to Palm Springs with some friends of ours. My friend is loaning us his house for the weekend. I am soooooo excited to get out of town for the weekend and hang with friends!!! Super sweet! We also have tickets to a hawaiian concert so that should be cool.
Later in the month, we have a shower to look forward to in Sanger with family. So that should be pretty cool too. October is looking to be a fun month. All of our preparing is starting to pay off! Only 12 more weeks till meet my baby girl!
