all of the sudden … I’m publicly pregnant

So it appears that I am SO MUCH past the “is she pregnant? or just fat?” stage, that I appear so pregnant that people in public acknowledge my pregnancy.  And it really just started over the weekend (happy birthday to me, I guess).    My friend and I went to a movie on Saturday night, and […]

thirty-nine

I turned thirty nine today.  It was a pretty good year, and I think the next year is going to get better.   Thirty-nine is a fairly good number - not like the number 36, that was a good number, but thirty-nine will do.   Thirty-nine is probably more pleasant if you like the number three.  I’m […]

back to the dark ages

The Mr. and I subscribed to Netflix recently, and one of the nice things about it is that you can watch a movie instantly from their website. I’ve hooked up the laptop to our HD tv (it has a PC monitor input) so it’s like watching it on DVD.

March: get married
End of […]

I don’t write about Zimbabwe much, although I do follow it with much interest. Just after the fake re-vote at the end of June, Mugabe went to visit the other African countries’ leaders. He said […]

I thought I looked pregnant before

So, I was so worried that people thought I didn’t look pregnant … and now I don’t have to worry any more.

And I’m not really close to being due yet. I made the Mr. take that picture of me so that we’d have proof that I was really pregnant once. And this is […]

living the frugal life

The Mr. and I are about to embark on an expensive endeavor - raising a child.  So, being the budgeter that I am, I’ve started to incorporate the word “frugal” into my mental mantra.
The Mr. is generally ok with this, he’s not the kind of guy who likes a lot of stuff around anyway.  He […]
