That title just about sums it up.
YS actually does have a mild case of restless legs. She needs to take Melatonin every night, once the drugstore gets her special kiddie dosage, which should happen today. Who knew? She’s very pleased, and has already upped her bedtime drama in response. The truth is I’m not surprised, [...]
Today’s developments thus far:
I have put in TWO loads of laundry. That’s right, count them, one, two. I even — wait for it — transferred the first one into the dryer before loading up the second one. That’s been especially impossible since the pregnancy symptoms started, see; don’t ask, I can’t explain, except to say [...]
I didn’t go to the parade. Last year, not being pregnant or anything, I went to the parade; today I didn’t go to the parade, though G and the kids did. I made the right decision, but I’m sad. Anyway, they had a good time, and thank heavens the Boy didn’t go berserk [...]
Don’t ask me that right now.
“You taught me what love is,” I often say to RS, my firstborn. “I thought I knew what love was, but when you were born I realized I never really knew.”
What would you do if your child came home from school with one of these on each forearm (note: in [...]
Hanes. Hanes.com. Buy everything Hanes. Do all of your shopping at Hanes. Never buy undergarments or socks or sweatpants or t-shirts or anything else anywhere else ever again.
I took a gamble and ordered about 8 of these for RS. It was a flat shipping rate that day, so I figured if the sleeves were good, [...]
The good news is, I have the vast majority of my pregnancy ahead of me!!
(um, the other good news is the actual baby, I suppose)
Sigh.
Time to complain about my symptoms!
I’m tired of nausea. Tired of heartburn (so, SO tired of heartburn). Tired of insomnia that manages to make itself heard even through the anvils I [...]
Well this is different. As you might have seen in several places throughout this blog, I tend to gaze at and/or purchase items sold through The Hunger Site, and the other sites in the click-to-give network. I’ve seen a number of pieces of Israeli jewelry, with “chai” (still haven’t bothered setting up this laptop to [...]
Actually, come to think of it, it isn’t that different. This is not the first Mother’s Day I’ve spent feeling sick and weak and groaning from discomfort; in fact, it’s the third, or at least the third that’s due to this particular cause. This particular cause, of course, being my giant uterine parasite. You must [...]

[This post was written on Friday. The sleep study was Thursday night.]
Yeah, neither could I. But YS, apparently, can, and did, during her sleep study last night. This is especially strange when you consider how much trouble she has falling asleep at home. Perhaps we should stick all that stuff on her every night.
Whither the [...]
This hot weather is ticking me off. For one thing, the second floor of my house is always like twice as hot as the first floor. I realize heat rises, but I don’t understand why the difference is so pronounced. We do have an attic, so it’s not as if this floor is the one [...]
