I am DONE with my holiday shopping!!!DONE!
DONE I SAY! *laughs maniacally* OK, perhaps that's not the right attitude to have...
but I'm still DONE!!!  Oh, TWAFD b/c I'm done with the above, and because I'm now going to make a Christmas Tree out of paper and oil pastels...because real ones are derned expensive, even more so than silly pumpkins. Silly expensive holidays. Silly, silly, silly. What an odd word, "silly,". It's one of those words that doesn't sound like one if you say it enough times. *tangent girl prances off* IP: Logged |

It was also a Fantabulous Day b/c I wrote Jase a poem of sorts while at Caribou Coffee (my present to myself for getting all of my shopping done) for our lil' anniversary about the first time that he said that he loved me.Don't worry - it's much better than the Stinky Cat poem. IP: Logged |

My son and I thank you both, Prox and Aph, for the sweet regards and happy birthday. I was talking to one of my cling-ons at work the other day.....a sweet girl who adores me, whenever she comes in when I'm working, she LOVES me and talks to me as long as she can ( It's so sweet!) Well, turns out she's ten. That puts it in an objective perspective for me. I could conceiveably be this girls mother!!! She's ten after all, but that is so big to me.... like a real 'tween'. Now my boy is joining the ranks... he's being recruited for 'grown-up' status soon. My beautiful sweet blond little man. My questioning archer, relentless firey Aries rising, moody deep Scorpio moon.*SIGH* IP: Logged |

Well, I'm glad that he had a good b-day  *grumbles*
Sooo upset.
I woke-up at 3 AM this morning.
3 AM.
And couldn't get back to sleep.
About half an hour ago I finally gave up, turned my lights on, and started watching the news. Sooo. Upset. BUT today is the day of the ultrasound that'll show the kiddo's sex IP: Logged |

pixie~ you have a Saggi son who has a Scorp moon? Cool beans. I must say that is a GREAT combination. prox~ weeeeird. This morning I woke up during the wee early, dark hours of the morning and tossed and turned for atleast and hour and a half hour too! I forced myself to fall back asleep eventually but I wish I hadn't cause when I woke up a couple hours later I felt crummy.
You're gonna find out if it's a boy munchkin or a girl muchkin TODAY?! ohboyohboyohboy that is verry exciting indeed. 
So this is my last chance to guess??
ummm......I think.......GIRL. But then...my first thought was boy...jeez..I'm bad at this guessing thing.. I'm a habitual second guesser..lol. TWAFD because my picky little Virgo rising munchkin ate his breakfast of creamy brown rice without a fuss! YAY! I get soooo happy when he eats what I make for him on the first try..especially when it isn't his usual peanut butter n jelly sandwich.
oh where would I be if it weren't for life's simpler pleasures? IP: Logged |

Happy belated birthday wishes to pixelpixie's boy!  And here's to many many more happy birthdays...
Proxie...Can't wait to hear your news!
And...TWAFDB....I sent in my RSVP to attend some friends' wedding in IRELAND! So I'm having a long holiday weekend in Ireland with a very special Gem...and it's a beautiful estate near the west coast where we're staying, in a villa, our suite (!) has its own jacuzzi and I am so eager!! Harpyr, I gotta say...I'd prefer the PBJ myself, so what a great little one you have!

Awesome, Aph!TWAFD fer me because I think that I may have helped someone on a pregnancy MB I've started posting on. She's at about the same place as me (about a week or so less), and said that she was feeling really down about her pregnancy, so I posted this: I had a few problems early on, including an early threatened miscarriage.
It was apparently pretty severe, and the doctors told me, "In a week or two, the miscarriage should complete itself," so my then-finance-now-husband and I resigned ourselves to that. There were even a few following cases of moderate bleeding to back that up.
We had an ultrasound at the end of those 2 weeks and saw what looked like a little sac with a strong, regular heartbeat in the middle of it. As soon as the doctor left the room, I jumped up from the table half-naked, my husband jumped towards me, and we cried and hugged. Since then we've had another ultrasound at 13 weeks and the 20-week one (actually at 19 for us), and there's a healthy, apparently very active little person in there. There have been no other signs of miscarriage, so if you'd had early complications don't necessarily loose heart.
Re: newbie's post: I can relate.
I'm at 19 1/2 weeks and am *constantly* exhausted and mentally foggy, and have frequent dizzy spells which get so bad as to make me sit for a bit. In some ways it's disappointing to not be as active and vibrant as I used to be (and hope to be again  ), but I figure that it's a small price to pay for feeling the (now) little nudges, bumps, and hiccups of my growing daughter and for knowing that there's life inside me building. If she needs my energy more than I do right now, I say to her, "Go for it."
That's the way that my Mom recommended that I look at it, anyway...but, then again, she did say that she's waited for 23-years to see me tired (I was myself a...precocious...baby and child). *wonders about own mother's motives* Besides, there're so many *interesting* things happening right now.
For instance, I don't know if this is too crude for this forum, but I never in a million years imagined that my nipples could get this big or be this sensitive (my husband's away in military training right now, but I'll imagine that we'll have fun with that when he returns in two weeks); every day I find that I've outgrown a new pair of something or other that fit perfectly well last week; I'm having loads of fun discovering my constantly changing center of gravity; I get to place bets on when my belly button will give-in and pop-out; and my hair and nails look great
And if you haven't started to feel your kiddo's jostlings, don't worry - it'll all seem worth it when you do. ESPECIALLY when you're at the stage I'm in now, when they're tentative first jabs. You may want to start hitting back as the pregnancy progresses, who knows? But for now they're great
As a side note, my child kept punching me yesterday throughout the sonogram.
I have the feeling that my ribcage'll never be the same.

Well, If you insist, I can think of one or two things... This at first explanation will sound kinda' bad, but then it's good. ( foreshadow) My grandfather, the meticulous jeweller and lover of all things unusual and sparkly and miniature, with a laugh that reaches the ceiling and a yell voice that does too, but luckily we don't hear it often....years....., and a fixed nature that belies his Sagittarius sun, has had cancer of the bladder for years. He has had ongoing, quite painful and taxing treatment, and it was quite successful for a long time. This year, however, the prognosis has gotten bad. The treatments are no longer working, and it appears as though he won't be with us for very much longer, as it has travelled to his lymph nodes.*sigh*
The last time I saw him a few weeks ago, he appeared haggard and tired and sunken, and it was really quite sad to see this vibrant strong man, who clears brush and shears trees when he has a cold, reduced to a sunken man who has a hard time leaving his chair. It is his birthday tomorrow, and we went today to celebrate. The entire family, in their small wartime home, that they've lived in throughout their 58? year marriage. He had energy tonight. His face appeared fuller and the smile on his face, when my daughter did something cute, or my son chattered his ear off, was bright and in his eyes. This is a good thing. I fully expected the same man I saw weeks ago, and the sight tonight made me pleased as pie. I don't have any doubt that this man will take the joy he can squeeze from this world, and run with it. I know he will fight until he feels it's not worth fighting for. In his 86th year, he is fighting for some precious moments that are deserved. That makes my day fantabulous. I hope you have a wonderful time with your man!!!! How exciting! IP: Logged |

That is really, truly Fantabulous.
It sounds like he's lived a full life, and now he's taking every measure to squeeze the marrow from what he has left. 
I will! (re: Jase )
I leave tomorrow!
Aaaaah!

 To day was a Today Was a Fantabulous Day Because....I joined Lindaland. Linda, my role model & my guide. I finally found a place where I can chat to other beautiful people in mind and spirit, with whom I can share passions with. I remember the day I found her book LINDA GOODMAN'S STAR SIGNS
The Secret Codes of the Universe in strange circumstances that I would not have normally been in, I was never spiritual or had any awarness then, until I started exploring astrology then by (accident) fate I found Lindas Book. Some force led me to her. And from then on I have read most of her books and study astrology, numerology, lexigrams (their fun), mythology, ghosts and the paranormal. And now Im here to recieve more enlightening experiences. IP: Logged |
