I Heart Big Fat Gawdy RIngs

Don't know if you know this fact about me... but I ADORE big fat gawdy rings. The hospital gift shop where I get shots every week, actually has a pretty decent selection of costume jewelry. (I know right?!)

I take it upon myself, to reward myself every two weeks with a new ring. It is the least I can do for myself after getting those damn shots every. single. week. Needless to say, I now have QUITE the collection. Here are a few.

Baby Shower Goodness

Yesterday, Rod found our Houdini bat in the sink. This is the bat that's been reeking havoc in our house after dark for the past week or so. The poor thing finally keeled over. As bad as I feel about his death..I am overjoyed that he is no longer in the house. (shivering dance)

As if that weren't enough Goodness for the day, my sister and boyfriends sister threw a surprise baby shower for us. It was a surprise, so I have no pictures! boo hiss! I will steal some from Jen soon and will definitely share! I am so thankful for everybody that came and for all the goodies everyone gave us for Liam.

Toward the end, Rod and Cierra gave me a Zales bag. For a second, I thought...certainly he's not proposing (perplexed sigh because, I feel that will never happen). As I opened it, there was a beautiful link bracelet. Turns out, people thought I didn't react properly. (though if they new the things I was thinking, they may understand) I was a little disoriented, and very surprised!

I definitely wasn't expecting anything for me and thought it was absolute sweet, thoughtful goodness! Cierra was so proud of herself for helping Rod pick it out! When I gave her a hug, I whispered just how lucky I am to be her mom! Rod was all smiles and one look at him just made me want to cry...it was just so thoughtful! It was a nice end to a rough week, a really nice end!

Lately, I've been missing Valency and Wendy; whom are always good for nice long talks, but are both a bazillion miles away! They are both people with the ability to bring me back down to Earth! SO if you two are reading this... I miss you very much!

You'd think with all this bedrest, I'd blog more! I still blog every day on the bedrest blog, but even IT is a bit boring-tagious!

Agro Preggo

A couple of days ago, I bit my boyfriend's head off for something. (Is it sad, that I don't even remember what?) He's not the confrontation type, which is NOT GOOD for me. I come from a loud family that operates under the rule, "If you love somebody, you talk/yell it out" Seriously...there are a lot of us and we are ALL loud! ha ha.

My boyfriend prefers to just ignore me completely, which does NOT work for me, clearly. I can be a bit high maintenance at times: don't hate! Ignoring me doesn't work in a normal setting and is just Goddamn mean now, since I spend all day at home with no-one to talk to. Ignoring me is like ASKING me to blow shit out of proportion...it's the boyfriend equivalent of putting a target on your back. Today is the second day of silence and now I'm just MAD! Boys are so clueless!

On a bright note; I may be able to go back to work in October...I CAN'T WAIT! My next appointment is in exactly one week, I will be begging /asking at that time! I work at ULTA, there are 25 to 30 girls there and ALWAYS someone to friggin talk to!

Bedrest is officially making me a crazy woman!
