OK, I will try not to let 24 hours go by without a blog post until the baby's born.
I started writing one today (about writing report cards) but it's still in "draft" stage and I'm too tired to finish it now. Maybe tomorrow.
I am also planning to do a post with my reading list for our 18-week literature-based Civil War study. Now that we've finished it and I know what we can realistically accomplish.
But it's bedtime now. So. No baby yet. I continue to have labor-type contractions now and again, no more than two or three in a row. I have made my peace with them and am not discouraged at the moment. Instead I am
- Counting my blessings,
- enjoying a few last days of relative calm,
- trying to keep the house clean,
- wondering when I am going to find time to make a few rice bags as I can't find my old ones and am all out of rice,
- psyching myself up for a posterior labor,
- eating lots of iron-rich food (well, lots of food in general),
- trying to train Mary Jane to sit in a different spot in the van and sleep in a different spot in the bed,
- and counting those blessings again.
Stick around…
