So there is a heat wave hitting my area which doesn't boad well when 8 1/2 months pregnant. Today was a hot day and at work the power went out! So for an hour I was doing fine but after the AC went out completely at 1:30ish I was drinking the last of the water I had and melting. Around 1:50 the HR lady came and asked me if I was ok. My responce was yes but she scooted me to a part of the building that ran on generator power and sat me close to a fan. That brought my body temp down a lot and my bosses were very helpful in trying to find places after work I could go and wait for hubby. Luckly the power came on about 2:30 and I stayed on the clock till 3:30 and didn't actually leave till 5. Now I am at Chilis and eating some food and waiting for hubby to get home.

Another HOT day! I know it's summer time but it's just a melty day. I can not wait till winter in a few months. I have noticed when I am hot Bump does not move as much untill I get a little cooler. I took a shower to see if that would help but it only helped for about 5 mins. I have a fan blowing on my feet and it's sort of blowing the air around my face too. Tomorrow startsthe single digit count down to May!!

I am HOT. Its a hot day and its not helping that if the next weekend the weather people stating that there is a chance of rain. Wish there was rain this weekend and the next. But can't control the weather and the apartment is a lot cooler than the old one. We actually lined dried a few items of clothing and they are dry at the moment.

Went through boxes again and found the Baby box, the toaster and the Crock Pot and a few other items. We didn't find the wedding planer that is housing the receipt for the wedding cake but we have a little time left and there are only a few more boxes to go through.

Visited SIL and had a good visit. She was amazed at how big I am, the last time she saw me was when we were packing and cleaning the old apartment, it was the end of March but I have expanded since then. Now just waiting for food so I will end here.

So today was another productive "nest" day. I got a few new maternity clothes and new bras! We also got the stroller and Bassinet! In the morning we went for a late breakfast and ran in to my Boss and his dad in B-Game. Thought it was funny but I guess living around the peninsula, you can run into any one. Then after a good recommendation for a breakfast spot from my boss, we left and I went to what is now Pea-in-the-Pod which took over Mimi's Maternity. (YEAH!) The rep was very nice and had me try on a few things, like a Medium work shirt (which at this stage doesn't fit around my belly), so I went larges with most shirts. I got two new Nursing bras (I am a whopping 40C now! Up from a 36B) and I tried one one at the store and I could breath again! Then we went to get the stroller because of the 20% off the bassinet deal and now its in our living room mostly put together (by me). Since Hubby got more from the landlord from the old place then either of us thought he stated that he was going to put those funds into the stroller. I had to argue the money down to a more reasonable amount because hubby needs jeans and I have some funds that I can use to help with payment as well. Also bought Hubby his Birthday gift finally! Its a Stainless Steal wallet that he has been drooling over since he bought them for his grooms men and usher for the wedding.

We also went to the Bread outlet near SIL home and got some bread. Hubby states its from the expencive side of the store. A whopping 2.50 for Whole grain and Flax bread for me and Country French Bread from him. then we went to Bakers square for Dunch (lunch/dinner).

Today I went to physical therapy and it wasn't a happy drive to and from there. I kept getting lost because the GPS told me to go different directions and turning left on no left turn streets, a crazy old guy that had a flat kept pulling over to the right, but staying in front of me at all the time and when I thought he was stopping to check his car he would pull a head cutting me off at the intersection. In the parking structure I couldn't see past the hood so I had to guess and go very slow making it difficult to park and to get out. Also no matter how I put the mirrors I couldn't see the cars behind me. So the Rav4 is as big as I will go for a car unless its a Mini Van and I need the room for extra Bumpies.

During my physical therapy Bumpy was moving and kicking while the MD was helping my shoulder feel better. And I can't believe how big I am getting. A shirt that fit me last week with little showing now flashes my belly to any one. Luckily I have the bella band but that rides up when I sit down to do anything at work. I'm debating where it would be worth it to get a few more pregnant shirts just for the month I have left. It would be 2-5 shirts that would be work shirts only. I would probably go to Mimi's which the staff isn't that nice on Saturday. I am going to talk with hubby about it.

April sucks. I was happy yesterday because I did a really good job on a special project at work, got to eat at Red Lobster for the first time (cocktail sauce is mehh) and got hubby's tax return off by 8pm, went to bed, woke up and went to work. While driving the rental to work I was cleaning off the windshield with the wipers and saw that there was something different about the windshield. Some how during the night it got hit and I called hubby right away. He confirmed it was cracked and BAM! There goes my good day. Now I have to go back to the rental place and try to get them to help me. Me and Bumpy are fine. Just wish this would have happened some time other than this month or to me.

-Update- Went to the car rental place after work and they were like "It happens all the time" especially with the high winds that were blowing for the last two days, still kind of windy now. So I paid $140 for the windshield and have a new rental car for the next day and a half. Its a Ford Escape. Not really liking this car but it will get me from Point A-B and back so can't pick and choose. At least they knocked off the GPS rental fee (its around the same price for the 6 days $130-ish for GPS that I didn't need in the first place). But the guy was nice and when he saw the car, he thought the same thing that maybe a tree branch or random junk from some where hit the car.

Yes this entry is back dated but wasn't much going on with Bumpy and I felt very tired after trying to get Hubby to a center for his taxes. Only having one egg roll isn't much food when you are pregnant unless its followed up with more food.
