Thoughts for a Thursday...


I kinda feel like I should always have some sort of picture when I post...so there you go-
here are my thoughts today..albeit disconnected.
-if you are on my Facebook my status reads today "Suzanne Greer has waved the white flag and is glad aide is on it's way" or something like that...so what's going on? A massive headcold..THAT is what. I've discussed with my coworkers (mostly cops and attorneys) that being severely pregnant AND having a headcold should be a new form of corporal punishment. It seems my body is too concerned with growing this parasite (yes, I'm still referring to him in the first trimester true terminology) and forgets I have a head and that IT needs to stay clear and functioning.
-when said head is NOT clear and functioning, and failing to operate on just a few hours of open mouth sleep-try NOT to pass out on the couch while your toddler is watching Clifford b/c it will surely result in your being smacked in the face by the mason jar you were previously drinking milk from.
-when drainage exists (ew) know that even in your obnoxiously large pregnant state you are still prone to dashing to the nearest and tallest area (sinks generally) to throw up.
-when drainage exists (ew 2) know that the food you are eating now will try to appear in the sink 20 minutes later, yet you will simultaneously be hungry at the same time..and that is disturbing.
-the cats you hated last week, you'll miss today when you realize you really DID give them away, to a stranger who although visually male sounded very female. But you'll resist the urge to be completely psycho and email she-male for a cat update. You did the right thing, you just don't feel like it.
-you are most definately sick when even a hot shower doesn't feel good. 9 times out of 10 a hot shower can fix my problems. Bad day? Argument with husband/family/person in general? Dinner sucked? Cranky toddler? etc...it usually fixes things...not with the cold.
-when your potty training toddler tells you "Rella panties" and you can't find Rella panties..said toddler will refuse to wear Snow White, Aurora, Tinkerbelle, Elmo, Abby, stripes, solids, dots, or even a diaper and run around the house bare-tailed.
-you have good friends out there who will give you a hand me down couch...for the cats you have left.
-whilst you try to blog, got to the bathroom, call the OB's office (and try not to freak out too much that you had Alka Seltzer yesterday when it CLEARLY says not to in the last 3mo of pregnancy) your toddler (the only wanting Rella panties one...) will attempt her hand at fridge cleanout and a)eat red pepper flakes straight, b)bring you the ricotta cheese, c)both, over and over and over again.
-your friends that are reading this will probably laugh/and or excuse any sort of spelling/grammatical errors....your mother, will not.

Ah, come on! Your mother is not THAT bad! {Sniff!} This headcold shall pass and so shall the little one who is helping make you so miserable at the moment and it will all soon be a faded memory. Chin up Wilbur! Love you too much!
