Nonsense

It's supposed to be down into the 80s and even 70s next week, so Paige figured it was time to start dressing in sweaters. Even if TODAY it's still in the 90s. Which is starting to make me truly angry now, by the way. But next week's forecast has given me enough hope to go on.
She was mad because I wanted a picture of her WITHOUT the dragon poster behind her, so I finally relented, but by then she wouldn't smile for the picture. She picked the ensemble herself, including the whole "no pants" thing, and the headband. :)

Anyway, since it's getting SOOOO chilly I figured it's about time Jess buys me this coat.
No big deal, it's just from Anthropologie, not expensive at all. But since I don't think I can go on living without it, and have been hunting for a coat I like for about 10 years, it's WELL worth it. I'll just put a link here for you all to donate. Haha. I love when I see people really do stuff like that. A girl I know put one on facebook so we could all donate for her to travel to another country. Haha. People are funny. Anyway, don't worry Jess, it'll probably go on sale at some point and then you'll only have to max out TWO credit cards to get it for me.

Don't mind me, I'm just posting nonsense in the middle of the day as an excuse not to clean my house. It needs it, and I mean BAD. But it's getting so tiring to do anything more than sit or lie down somewhere. Not to mention I've apparently broken a rib just by being too large in the belly region. Please pray said rib doesn't snap and puncture an organ when I'm in labor. Bye now.

You're pregnant! You don't need to worry about trivial things like cleaning your house! In fact, after the "I'm about to pop" stage you can go right into the "I'm postpartum" stage and still not clean it.

By the way, I still consider myself postpartum (hey, it's anything 'after' I give birth, right?). So I figure I never need to clean again!

I have been soooo unmotivated this week too. I think it is the weather. I am just on strike until it cools off. I also think there is a rule that you are no longer expected to clean after week 34, because eventually you will do the pre-labor-crazy-cleaning phase anyway, and you can just take care of it then.

P.S. I have decided that a clean playroom is just an invitation for everything to be dumped on the floor, so I think your strategy actually makes more sense. :) I hope your ribs feel better!

Wow, you both have really opened my eyes. Changed my life in fact! Cleaning days are over. Not that they ever really began.

I love the coat! Our house needs to be cleaned also. I am trying to convince Chris we need to shampoo the carpet this weekend!! I just don't know how long my energy will last through such a big event!

yes seriously what's with the weather? i feel like it's making me and everyone else in the world cranky....good thing there is a slight break in sight.
remember when i get super rich overnight i'm going to buy you that coat.
you'll have to tell me more about this rib thing tomorrow!

Brandi said...

Yeah Sarah, I felt the need to shampoo the carpets a while ago, and I already want to do it again(or want Jess to do it, since like I said, I don't have the energy). Ha. Nesting, it's funny.

Thanks Skye! Even if you were rich I'd feel really guilty if you ever spent that much on me. Haha. I'll tell you about my rib tomorrow when we make the trade! :)

Your rib is broken?! Now you've scared me and I don't want you to go into labor.
I love Paige's picture! The outfit, the face, the background. ha

Brandi said...

Ha, no Tyra, I was just being a whiner. It's not REALLY broken. As far as I know. It just feels raw all the time like they're being smashed together, and now the last several days if I sneeze or cough I get a sharp pain for a few seconds. I was just exaggerating.
