April 30, 0 more days to go

So wrapping up the month of April, I have though it over and its been a mixed month for me. I would say 50% of April has been good (I give mass props to Bumpy for the better luck). I would say 25% of April was Bad (my luck) and 25% of this month has been Excellent due to Bumpy, family and all around just being able to live to see tomorrow.

I received a nice card from Hubby's East Bay relatives with a GC for Bumpy. I also want to thank Auntie to the North for the Co-Sleeper. It arrived today as I was walking to the front steps. Gurr the mail man for not helping me but I got it in the house just fine. Though I took my time and it was heavier than I though it would be (I guess seeing it in the stores put together they are lighter and less compact). We need to clear out the space in the bedroom for it as well, so it might not be till two weekends (or ASAP if Bumpy comes early) till me and hubby set it up.

I can imagine the phone call I would place to work if it was set up close to my side of the bed. "Sorry I can't come to work right now. I am trapped in bed because there is a co-sleeper next to me and I can't get up!" I would get "Yeah sure.. you just need to move it and come in, BTW its a half a point due to the fact that you are late for work". DO'H!

I am hoping that my last day will be the 15th of May (Friday) (Also me and hubby's one year anniversary) also I would be 37 weeks 3 days. I also hope that the come back to work date would be Aug. 31st (Monday), that's if money isn't tight at that time. I want to try and be back around the time the other co-worker leaves for maternity leave, some sick work-aholic in me feels the need to be kind to work like that. In a wonderful world I would take the full 7 months off and look up in Oregon for a job and have my first 2 weeks back as my last two weeks, but alas that is a wonderful world and its not this world. Also would have some education from a Community College (Billing and Coding classes) in my brain for the jobs that require it that I see up there.

PS I am going to get a Camera sometime this weekend and will have a picture of the belly!

Bumpy's First Eartquake!

Dear Bumpy,

Even though you are still in my tummy and have no clue what went on today. A magnatude 4.3 earthquake hit the South Bay this morning and I did not feel you didn't stir.

Love,
Mom

PS you are active right now at 1:02 pm!

Sleepy but can't go to sleep

Just a quick note while I am placed on hold. I am tired due to a cat banging on the metal blinds at 3 or 4 in the morning. I don't know what time I went to sleep it was right after 9:30 pm. This weekend I have OT for another department in the office so I can get a better paycheck to make up a bit and to get back above the curve a bit before Maternity Leave. Only 2 months away! :/

Sleepy even after a 3 hr nap

3rd day at work and thinking I should have signed up for 2 more months of stay at home pregnant lady (Human stay at home Cat). Then again I don't know what I would have done for 2 more months besides look through boxes and drive Hubby nuts and going to KP and finding out I had no benefits, then going to work to give them moneys to give me benefits again. Work hasn't been that bad. I got my work caught up for the first time since I left on Friday Feb. 13th and I feel a little better but I think its going to explode again once I leave for the 12 weeks.

Baby is doing just fine. Every where I go at work, people say "your so big". I feel that it's not a compliment as a statement of people being aware that I am actually pregnant. I feel like I need to put a "Wide Load" and a "Makes wide turns" statement like the trucks on my back to just feel like I give people enough warning to move out of my way in hallways and through doors. And off and on when I am talking on the phone Bumpy is kicking me so I have to take a brake from speaking for a second. I think its Bumpy saying "Shut up! I am trying to grow!" But I can't really speak for some one inside me.

Back to work for Bump and I

High Ho, high ho it's off to work for me and Bump! Today is the first day to see if my micro tears in my back have made any progress in sitting for long periods of time. So far it's been a trial but I am working and Bump has been active by punching me and some times a kick. Time for lunch though I wish I was at home with the kitties and just being lazy! :)
