Things the last few days:
- I had my second interview at the montessori. Owner is a little weird and she couldn't really tell me what they would be hiring me to do if they hired me, or give me any guarantee of hours/schedule. They are calling people back on Friday, but I'm a bit skeptical now if I even want to work there.
- Yesterday I received a call from a church I applied 3 weeks ago for an administrative assistant position. I figured I wasn't going to hear from them, but I have an interview with them in an hour today! Crazy, all these interviews! Hope it goes well - its 30 hours a week and nearly twice as much pay as I'm making right now.
- Had my first midwife appointment - finally! I really liked her, and my official due date is July 5th (one day later than I estimated). We heard baby's heartbeat, and Shea emptied a water cooler onto the floor (leave it to my son). I got my blood drawn and nearly passed out, too. haha. She asked me if I get queasy or anything, and I said no, because I've had my blood drawn and needles definitely don't bother me and I've always been fine. Yeah, after the second vial was filled I started going lightheaded, then my legs went numb and I my ears rang. I started blacking out a little but managed to keep it together by putting my head down between my legs. She finished up and I stumbled to the couch and felt better. So weird. I've NEVER experienced that before, never even been close to passing out.
- Christmas was exhausting and I'm glad its over! I mean, it was fun, but three days of Christmas and 4 locations to open presents at is just a little above my limit. Oh, and getting up at 5:30 two days straight with late nights wasn't fun either. Still trying to catch up from that! Jeremy's parents got us a convection/toaster oven and a dutch oven, so I'm excited to be doing some cooking here! I love toasting things in the oven, its so insanely quick, and now I can make nummy roasts and large pots of chili and soup in my dutch oven.
Fake Christmas tree got taken down yesterday, and I almost have the house back to normal. There is some relief for me in it not being all holiday looking in here. Like I can finally just stop and rest and not worry about all the things I have to do. There are still lots of half-opened presents I have to deal with and my sewing room is the biggest mess I've ever seen. At least now I can start focusing on those things in stead of just adding to the mess. My next midwife appointment is in two weeks, and then we get to schedule our ultrasound to try and find out the gender (and if baby has all body parts, of course) within a couple of weeks of that!
Can't wait to hear about your Christmas!
We took our tree down on the 26th, the cat's were making a disaster of it so I decided it was gonzo. The rest of the stuff should be coming down tomorrow. I hope your interview went well, I am praying for you!
ReplyDeleteI often get faint with shots...not fun at all. :( I know the feeling of wanting the holidays to be over, its kind of nice to get back to normal. I hope you get caught up on your rest and have the energy to get everything in order. I'll be praying the job prospects work out!
