ok, I lied....I can blog more often than I think I can.

So, I am tired this week.
He's moving more and maybe this makes me more tired.
Who knows?!

Anyway, the big things that are going on with me are getting organized....
Or attempting to get organized (I know it's difficult for me).
I have been looking into thank you cards, shower invitations and announcements.
It would be nice if they all sort of matched (I never thought of myself as a "matchy-matchy" type) but I do have a certain idea/style in mind - somewhat plain-ish on recycled thick paper, with same font or whatever. I don't know. I would like to add a picture to the announcements.
And realize that not everyone who gets an announcement will get a shower invitation...And yes, I am rolling my eyes here. There are some fancy stationary stores here and I think I need to just go and see what they offer and check out pricing. (I am considering paperzone and ecru)
With that said, please send me your mailing address so I don't have try to get it together later. I might just go crazy if I have to get it together after this child is actually born so the more I can get finished beforehand seems better. Oh, and if there are people you want me to send announcements to, please get me their correct spelling of their name(s) and addresses now instead of waiting until later, please!

I am also wanting to get the book, "My mother wears combat boots" by Jessica Mills - from the band Citizen Fish (Christyl sent me via email a cool Hip Mama article of China Marten interviewing Jessica http://www.hipmama.com/node/37394
(thank you Christyl!). This is a book review that you should check it out about her parenting book called, "My Mother Wears Combat Boots: A Parenting Guide For the Rest of Us".

Ok, I have been steadily eating a little all day but want to eat my smoked oysters on saltines so I think I need to go to the social services office - it's only a million miles away from the ED (emergency department) - you know, since I have to get down there for paperwork pick up and drop off and just to be polite about the smell. Although if you smelled the smells I smell at work sometimes....you'd just laugh at me trying to hide to eat my yummy smoked oysters but...
