Things are going to start happening to me now
at least I hope. I had contractions again throughout the day, but they stopped around 3ish or so. Oh well. Xander will show up when he wants to, right? Anyways, my mom is flying in tomorrow - I'm so excited! She has only been up here once, right after we got the house, almost two years ago. So much as changed since then. She hasn't met Shelby or Honey or Scully I think she is going to be so delighted to be here with us and the baby.
In not so great news, yesterday a firetruck was parked in front of our neighbor's house. The lights were on but they didn't use the siren - I told Jamers that isn't a good sign. Eventually they took off, and we kept our eyes open but didn't see any indication of a coroner coming to pick up a body. Our neighbor to the south is an older gent whose daughter lives with him. I was worried he had passed. Well early this afternoon we left to go get the one last piece of furniture for Alexander's room (at Goodwill because we are that cheap) and when we got back there was a mobile health care van delivering a mattress (and I assume a sick bed but we didn't see one). They were there for awhile than took off. Then about an hour or two ago, Jamers noticed there was an ambulance parked in their driveway, once again without the sirens or lights. The good news is James saw them take the old man out on a stretcher back into the house. Jamers has speculated that perhaps he was at the hospital and they had the medical delivery today so that the man could come home. Given my experience with granny, I would say that isn't necessarily a good sign. We don't really know them too well, Jamers has gone over when we lost Mulder to check their backyard and the lady was real nice. What do you say to someone who you barely know when they lose someone close to them? Not to mention, I'm on the brink of popping out a new life. I'm just all sorts of confused I guess.
Today has been another day of wait and see. I'm very bored, at least if I were at work I would be passing the time being productive, but then again I would be so stressed that it wouldn't be worth it. I had somebody from work call today to check in. Apparently she texted me but alas, we don't have texting on our phones, so I didn't respond. Why, when somebody texts a number that does not have texting, does it not bounce back to reply as such? My aunt apparently had tried texting me several times earlier this year before I talked to her to tell her no we don't have texting. To me a phone is a phone. If you have it in your hands, just call the person if you want to speak to them. Anyways, so I spoke to Mel and I told her that I was just too stressed to come back after Monday. She said, "I think things are going well. (Temp) has been quiet. I see her in Tina's office quite a bit." "Oh. So 5 solid weeks of training and two and a half notepads of notes aren't enough to help her out. Why am I not surprised?" "Seems like everytime I turn around she is in Tina's office." "And that would be why I haven't been back since Monday."
So yeah. I guess things aren't going to swell since I left. Oh well. I'm not going to sweat it whatever mess I come back to I come back to.
Now I'll toodle off as din-dins should be ready soon. We are about halfway through B5 Season 4 but I have no hope of finishing it off again before Xander arrives. Plus my mom, not the biggest sci-fi fan so oh well!
