Today I tried to finish up at work, with Dr.Cook telling me last Friday that I was done. There was no way that was to happen, as I left my job thinking I would be back again at least this week and hadn't wrapped anything up officially, or unofficially for that matter. It was quite chaotic trying to get everything organized, and I'm trying not to worry about leaving things undone. I find that I am quite a control freak about certain things, and with work it is especially so. I don't like the thought of leaving my stuff or missing anything important, or just not being there. At the same time, what in the world am I saying? Not want to leave? Did someone spike my morning coffee?!!! I hope that sometime this week, after finishing up at work, I am able to just leave it all behind and focus on the other stuff, which is what Cook wants. He wants me home as much as possible, on the couch and bed as much as possible, at the same time acknowledging that having a toddler at home is not a lot of rest. Just this afternoon, in order to try keep Thomas awake, we went out for a treat, hiked through the "jungles" of Fairhaven Park, checked out the fish at Whatcom Falls Park and ate donuts and gumballs at Lafeens. Of course, no trip through the neighborhood is complete without a stop at the school to swing. Now if that ain't work I don't know what is! My hope is that we'll just set a date and complete this amazing adventure sooner than later. This week I have two non stress tests at the hospital and a doctor's appointment. Next week will be the same, plus two days of preschool. We'll see how it all plays out, considering I'm as big as a barn and feeling the affects of a big weight gain. Baby Whip is doing fine, so that is great. He's just making a lot of noise!
