Day to day

Just a few things have excited me the last couple days.

First, Stake Women's Day tomorrow. Apart from enjoying the day for what it is, I'm looking forward to going pregnant this year. That's because it was at 2 separate Stake Women's Days where I was asked if I was pregnant when I wasn't. One of the women had the audacity to say she thought I was because my cheeks were puffy (note: I had gained about 25 lb's...) although she's from a completely different culture and can't be held as accountable for saying culturally inappropriate things. I kinda got off easy actually; at another time she said to one of my friends that she (my friend) must be having a girl, because girls steal all your beauty (!!!)

Another thing that was pretty exciting was getting an oil change today. I know, how boring is my life? The oil change itself was nothing special, but the sticker they put on the inside window said that we were due for another oil change on January 23rd, and I almost jumped out of the seat when I realized that is after the baby is due. Hurray!

Then there was the discovery that Time Out for Women is coming to my area again in May. I'm SO looking forward to it, it was great the last time I went, and I loved seeing people I hardly ever get to see. I'm hoping and hoping and hoping that the team that John Bytheway is on is assigned to Toronto. He's my hero.

Going out for lunch today with Lily and catching up with her Kelsey's style, and then going out for dinner with Matthew meant I didn't have to make any food today! It also probably meant I ate at least twice the amount of calories I should eat in a day. Sorry baby! I'm curious to know if he'll be a chunker because of my liking for fatty foods. Don't worry though, I had chicken instead of steak, vegetables instead of fries (at dinner...I still had fries at lunch!) and I had a salad with my lunch. I'm not totally going off the deep end. Actually, my face looks thinner now being pregnant than it looked prepregnancy. Go figure (get it? Hahaha...okay, not very funny, I know.)

Anyway, that's all! Not that nothing else has excited me, but those things stick out.

I'm looking forward to this weekend, mainly because it'll mean the primary presentation will be done until next year. ***huge sigh of relief*** It's really not that bad, and everything went really well last Sunday for rehearsing, but I just stress about things, you know? Life feels weird when there's nothing to stress about. Happy and free, but weird.

I'm going to wrap this up now and relax a bit, in hopes that this sinus headache goes away before bedtime tonight. Sleep has been...awkward lately. Sometimes I'll wake up in the night and will be falling back asleep when I'll jolt myself awake and think, "was I just breathing or not???" because my nose is so stuffed and I sleep with my nouth closed normally. Then I have to consciously work my mouth open so that I can breathe, give my nose a rest, and actually fall asleep! It's a strange sensation to say the least.

Anyway, so long for now!
