If you could only see us now

…you would see:

  • an expectant mama who can’t bend over her pregnant belly without doing something resembling the squats with a hookie-pokie-and-ya-turn-yourself-around.
  • a face that is raw and tired from incessant nose blowing for 3 days (and not sleeping because her and her Hubby sneeze/blow/cough all night long)
  • hair that has not come out of it’s rubber band pony tail in 4-5 days (I swear, there’s a female under this mess SOMEWHERE)
  • house that is full of scattered packing projects and chaos, dishes in sink, leftovers on stove, oversoaked soaked beans on counter, etc
  • laptop that has visited craigslist in the last few days WAY more times than should ever be considered normal
  • a mother who has no idea what happened to her normally sweet, energetic boy who has become an attention starved, out of control child a few hours each day to blow off steam
  • a wife who makes her Hubby pack boxes and make trips back and forth to new place, despite that he is sick and couldn’t even work these last two days (hey, love is sacrificial! — and I LOVE you too, baby!)
  • a cat who wonders why the heck he keeps getting put in the crate while the big wide open door taunts him to come out and play

in a nutshell: an exhausted – yet truly content – slightly ill – pleasantly pooped family!!!
We spend our first night at the new place tomorrow, if all goes well. Finish up moving on Sunday after church, come back next week to clean and paint (back to work for both of us too). Will write again when we get our head above water!

In 2 weeks from now, this we’ll be able to laugh about all of this! Hopefully….. I feel your pain though. Minus the super sick and pregnant part. And the kid part… because, well he isn’t here, otherwise he’d be the same way! Instead I’m the one having occasional melt downs and temper tantrums. Oh, I so hope we wont be moving again for… a VERY long time. Okay, well get some sleep, Super woman.

LOL You’d see something similar around here too. A too big to bend over pregnant women who hasn’t brushed her hair in days and can’t stop coughing and sneezing. Luckily we’re not moving too. LOL Hope it goes smoothly!
