Link's Surgery & My Grouchiness

Today Link went to the vet for his neutering surgery. I felt HORRIBLE walking away as I left him there, but thankfully it all went well and he is doing okay so far. We have to call later to make sure he is good to get picked up today. My poor puppy! Oh well. We are trying to be responsible dog owners and prevent unwanted puppies from occurring in the future. I must remind myself of that.

So apparently if I don't eat when I first feel hungry I get really super grouchy! This has been an interesting realization over the past few days. Like right now, as I munch my PB&J, I am starting to feel better, whereas two minutes ago I was ready to rip this person's face off after reading the email they sent me. So weird. Normally I'm pretty calm and not violent at all.

Time is gone away

It seems like whenever I try to have a nice open week with nothing going on that stuff magically appears or reappears on my calendar.

Either I forgot it was happening (i.e., my hair appointment, book club), or we add things to our schedule because of family (i.e., Mom's potential knee surgery tomorrow, watching the nephews on Saturday).

Regardless, my nice open weekend is now full of things to do! :(

What the heck was I doing?

This is what I find myself wondering a lot lately... it appears that my brain is, for the most part, gone. If I don't write something down it won't get done, because I'll forget about it. I left my keys in the atrium of another building today. I have notes everywhere and I feel so disorganized, but this is how I have to be right now!

That, plus getting out of breath easily and stretch marks, are daily reminders that I'm pregnant. Plus, our little boy kicking me every so often is a good reminder too! (Yes, it's a boy! Hooray!)

I will be 22 weeks tomorrow. Next week I have another ultrasound to try to look at baby's spine - last time he wouldn't uncurl enough for them to see everything. It will be nice to be able to check in again. Sometimes I wish I had a window into my tummy so I could see him and make sure he was okay. However, it would be really weird to see him developing, especially in the early stages when the ears and eyes aren't in the right places. I guess God did know what He was doing when He set this whole thing up. ;)
