Everyone Cooks Pork Chops At Four In The Morning

Hello! I'm back on "blog land"! First, I would like to say "Thank you!" to Patrick and Elise for the early Christmas present... a new digital camera! So awesome! (Needless to say, I'm psyched!). I've been snapping photos already this morning! I can now post pictures of things like the finished nursery, my finished recipe book,  and all sorts of other things!!!! Especially baby Jackson, if he ever shows up! Sometimes it feels like I will be pregnant forever...
 Darling is off to work this morning. I cooked pork chops that I had thawed yesterday, at four this morning for his lunch lol. My sidekick is curled up in 'her' chair, snoozing as usual. One morning, a few weeks ago, she was sleeping in our bedroom with us. We got up, Darling went to work and I went about my day. That dog didn't even wiggle until 9:00 a.m.! She came downstairs with a stretch and a big yawn, unrolling her large, lazy tongue lol. She cracks me up.

WOW

I have exciting posts, just waiting to be published, and now, blogger is having an issue. So, I will keep checking and as soon as problems are worked out on their end, I will publish new posts with pictures.
-"Give me a break man, really??!!"

Thought for the Day

I got to thinking:
  Since Heaven will be a "continual feast", and God isn't racist, that means I can have unlimited crab rangoons in Heaven! Lol.

Here we go again

At three thirty this morning, I was wide awake. And for an hour I laid there, looking at the clock with "baby on the brain". Thinking about everything it seemed...

• I was arranging nursery furniture in my mind
• Counting how many small baskets I want to get for little socks, mittens, etc.
• Making a mental note to throw in a roll of quarters when I pack the hospital bag for Joe's snacks
• What to put on the table next to the rocking chair
• Thinking I've got to wash the rest of the baby clothes
• What size shelving I will need for the closet
• I've got to get some Christmas gifts/cards
• I needed to finish baby shower "thank yous"
• Who will water/feed the chickens, goats, pigs?
• Who will let the dog out while we're gone and fill the stove???
• I've got to get some paper plates
• What if I'm forgetting something?

Finally, I just had to get up. I couldn't sleep, and I couldn't take the questions and to-do's hammering at my mind anymore. So I made some coffee and got dressed. Started a load of laundry, folded and put away the load from yesterday, washed the dishes, swept the floor, got the fire going, took all the tags and labels off the baby clothes and threw them in the wash. I guess I'll try to settle my mind and make a list for when I get groceries and get paper plates, baskets a few gifts, etc. I just feel like I have to be doing something! I want to wave a magic wand and have everything done right now so I don't have to worry about it! Oh well, I haven't found one yet so I guess I'll have to get things done the old fashioned way lol. 

  I think I'll make banana muffins for breakfast. Hope you have a good day!
