On the weekeknd...

So this past weekend I was getting ready to celebrate Mr. C's birthday. I decided that since the people around me have been giving me all kinds of faboo kitchen toys I should probably bake the cake from scratch. So on Thursday night after work I went to the store and bought everything I needed (except the lemon extract, which for some reason was sold out!!!) and took it home. On Friday night when I got home from work I started working on the cake. It involved all kinds of fun steps like separating eggs and sifting flour. And at some point in the middle of the whole thing I realized something... I was barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen. Not only that but I was also baking my man a cake when he was out with his buddies. And after ten min of laughing, I went right back to baking.

And that was Friday night. I hope everyone appreciated how silly that really was.

Cheers!

Hey look...

It's the end of Aug and I haven't posted anything. Sorry about that. Everything is really busy right now. Unfortunately it's busy in that not exciting to post about way.

My new job is pretty cool. I finally have stuff to do all the time. (I think this might be a first.) And I am getting used to the people I am working with. (As we all know there is always a transition time.) I have managed to switch my schedule once again so that getting up in the early morning is normal... And strangely enough I don't really have a problem getting up at 6. It will probably get harder for me as the weather gets colder and it gets darker... But I can deal. I really like being off work at 5. It's like a little present.

Melody is getting bigger and more active. And well she should be at 7 months. She enjoys kicking me when I am trying to concentrate on things (How does she know?) We went tot he doctor yesterday who said I finally looked pregnant. Well good, I would hate to think I just looked fat. *grin* I am still very healthy, just in case you were wondering. I refuse to admit how much I weigh right now and truly believe I will be having a 40 pound baby. The first of the major baby presents arrived this week. We now have a beautiful stroller/car seat. It's all green and pretty. We put it together and I showed it to Melody... but she apparently has no opinions about it yet.

Anything else? Well it's faire season so I am in the middle of costumes, practice, and drama. Yes, that's right as a new guild mistress I apparently get to fill up on drama before the season starts. I am sure I will be ranting and raving about the whole situation soon, but first I need to get it under control. Oh, and before you start freaking out and thinking this is my drama, no. I am only involved because it involves some of the girls I am working with. *Sigh* And I am expected to clean it up. Great. Why did I agree to this?


Mr. C's birthday is on Saturday. So that should be fun. We're going out to dinner and I am making him a cake. I'm pulling out the new mixer and making it from scratch. I hope it turns out as well as I want it to.

Well, it's getting to that time when I have to actually get ready for work and can no longer pretend that I have all day to goof off... No matter how tempting that is. I'll catch everyone later.

Tah.
