Whoops!? I missed yesterday.? It was a wild and crazy day anyhow.
I didn’t feel so hot, yet again.? So in turn, I didn’t get much cleaning done.? Oh well.
We had lunch with K, of course.? All I wanted to do after that was lay down and read so I pretty much just did that. :lol
The P’s came at around 3pm.? When K came home, we decided pizza sounded good so we went to Round Table and demolished an extra large pizza.? Yummy!
We rented The In Laws at Blockbuster and watched that at home with some ice cream.
Today we got up early for Apple Hill and packed a picnic lunch. I really felt pretty awful, was developing a cold.
We went to Mimi’s for breakfast, which we’d never done before.? It was *so* good.? I got Eggs Benedict and I swear the english muffins were homemade.? Absolutely wonderful.
We drove through Carson City and got gas before heading up 50.? We had fun when we got there, H got to feed the farm animals at Plubell’s Orchard and they all got caramel apples.? We had a picnic lunch at Larsen’s and bought apples up at Mother Lode.? All in all, a good day for everyone.? We drove back and everyone had to take a nap. :lol
We went to Chili’s for dinner and now we’re vegging out.? I’m feeling pretty awful.? This cold is getting worse and worse.? I expect to feel even worse tomorrow.

I’m so dragging today.? This mornng I just had to go back to bed. I could barely keep my eyes open.? Luckily, H was still sleeping in our bed so I just snuggled in with him.? We slept like that until nearly 10!? Wow.
And ever since, I just haven’t felt up to par.? Really draggy and vaguely icky.? Just wonderful, considering we have to clean.? K’s parents come tomorrow afternoon.? I picked up some and did the dishes.? But there still is a lot to do.
He’s bringing home McDonald’s so that’ll be a quick and easy dinner.? And hopefully, afterwards I’ll feel better.
To complicate matters, tonight is TV Night.? So we’re kinda SOL.
However, the bathroom and bedroom are ready.? And it looks as though the Weekender’s Party may have to be cancelled.? We haven’t had one RSVP since Monday.? :(? So perhaps the living room and kitchen won’t be as important as I’d thought.? Though we still need to buff things up.? Run the swiffer and vacuum.? A little dusting too.
LORD I’m hungry.
I dreamed last night that I felt the baby move.? It was family, so it was like, “Oh yeah!? that’s what it’s like!”? I think it’s only a matter of time before I start feeling the baby.? May take a little while, since I think the placenta is on top, so to speak.? But I’ll start feeling it soon.

I’m so slacking on writing in here lately.? I don’t know what my problem is, honestly. (I’m still getting in an entry every day so you can’t really complain here.)
So today went almost as expected. 
H didn’t come in to our room until K was already up and he didn’t get up until 7!? So that was nice.? Man, what’d we do right last night??
I got to start my kitchen set before going down to Carson City.? Yes, I actually did it.? The drive was pretty uneventful, thank God.? A little road construction was all but no real traffic to speak of.
When I got there, he said it would take up the rest of the day to fix!? K had told me it’d be an hour.? Here it was 11 o’clock and all I had was some drinks and some cheese nips.? I knew that wasn’t going to cut it.? But the guy did note down that I was waiting (what else could I do??) and probably noticed I had H with me.? The waiting room wasn’t so bad.? We had it pretty much to ourselves and the TV had cable so there was plenty to watch.? I called K a few times.? Imagine my surprise when they finished barely two hours later!? Not bad at all. 
I drove us home and got some McDonald’s on the way.? I was starved!? I spent the rest of the day on the update so I’d finish it on time.? And I did, just barely!
And now, it is time for SLEEP.? It’s been a long day and I’m pretty pooped!

Okay.? Maybe not.
I didn’t go to Carson today.? At 8:30 this morning, the FedEx tracking page said the phones were on the truck, ready for delivery.? So I wasn’t even sure if I should take a shower.? For sure they’d want a signature or something.? I didn’t want to miss the phones.? Well, noon came and no phone and no shower.? Our appointment was between 11 and 1 so it wasn’t going to happen.? So K rescheduled it for today.? Duh, I mean tomorrow.? So I *have* to go tomorrow.
The phones finally got here.? Lots of fun to lay with!? This is going to be a lot of fun.? I love the games and the ringtones are cool too.? It’s such a tiny phone!? I feel so sleek. :lol
I had a *bunch* of subscriptions today.? Like 4 and two were 2 month subs.? Awesome!? I’m not sure where the attention came from but it sure is nice.? That will be nice to have this weekend.? Gosh, the month is coming to a close pretty quickly.? Pretty soon it’ll be November.
So today mostly revolved around these phones.? Tomorrow, after the Carson trip, I’ll have to work on another update.? I’ll need to do a kitchen.? I haven’t done one in a while and I enjoy them so much.? Depending, I may try some new things.? We’ll see how time and patience shakes down.
I hear that damned mouse out there.? Where is our good-for-nothing cat?? I swear, he’s ignoring this mouse on purpose.? He’s a bold little creep too.? Comes out of the stove alot.? He’ll get his, eventually.? The cat will be in while we’re in Elko in a few weeks.? That’ll do it.

Just another manic monday.? But I’m sure you’ve realized by now that my mondays are far from manic. 
K went ahead and stayed home today.? Why mess with a good thing?? He slept half the night in H’s bed, since H came in with us and it’s jus so hard to sleep with three of us in there.
I figured today was as good a day to start on my next update.? :lol Well, I had to!? But I got it done.? I made a chrome living room and I think it turned out pretty well.? Now, hopefully I’ll get a subscription or two out of it.? I haven’t gotten any in a while.
K did go in for a class but he got home not too long ago.? He’s doing his email right now.? He’s so one track minded about? thinks like this.? It’s pretty funny.
Our new cell phones could have been delivered today but *no*.? It wasn’t due to deliver until tomorrow so they’re going to hold onto it until tomorrow.? Figures. :P? They had it here in town at 9:00 am according to the tracking page.? Grr.? Oh well.
Tomorrow, I’m going to bravely drive down to Carson City.? We need to get that seat level fixed, plain and simple.? It would have been great to get it done while K was off work.? But they had no openings today when he called.? So it has to be done.? I just have to try not to be nervous about it.? I’m sure I’ll be fine.? But I worry anyhow.
And today draws to a close.? Another day to tick off the list.? Another day closer to that elusive ultrasound!
