Just so everybody knows what's going on: We're now scheduled to check into the hospital late tomorrow (Sunday) night. Baby arrival will, if all goes well, happen sometime on Monday -- whether she likes the idea or not!

I'm not exactly thrilled at this turn of events, but knowing there's an end in sight is a huge relief.

Still no downloading, as kevinarcher puts it. He and the FolkBabe took zgwortz and redshinma down the shore but not me, because I thought something might happen, and then nothing happened! Boooooo.

We had a small incident yesterday. Everything is fine now. However ( Read more... )

I have tons of stuff to write about, but allergies and the resulting lack of sleep have made me goofy. Bear with me.
