Bought a house.

Have yet to sell house.

Have yet to *clean* house.

Have preschooler and I'm pregnant.

May have to watch diet due to Gestational Diabetes.

Did I mention my husband and I have to clean, organize and stage a home with a preschooler underfoot? Anyone like to move furniture? Lemme know! I pay in beer!

And my Mother is coming up to help. Which is good: she's a Military Wife. That means she can have our place in tip top shape in 1 day.

They should all be like this.

Saturday: we played... broke out the "froggy pool". I bought a new wardrobe (thank goodness... i had no shorts...). Saturday Night we watched Sherlock Holmes. I enjoyed it.. it was a good movie. Not great, but it was fun. And I am in love with RDJ. He's all addicted-y and needs me you know /sarcasm

So I did my 2 hour test yesterday... 3 vials over 2 hours. phthththt.  Already drinking coffee (decaf!) with no sugar and trying to space out meals properly. I should find out the results early next week. Then it is probably a routine of blood testing, watching diet like a hawk and walking 3x a day. But hey, what pregnancy complication can you have where the advice is "eat right and exercise"

So... I had my Gestational Diabetes (GD) test today. Drink orange crush (or something like it) , wait an hour and they draw blood. Now, last time I CRUSHED the numbers: normal is a 70, GD is a 180... I got 270 or something like that. YEAH BITCH!

So... last time I was pregnant my blood turned into tasty, tasty syrup. Basically, when you are pregnant, your body kinda, sorta goes a smidge diabetic... after all Mommy can't use up ALL the sugar... baby needs some. It's all natural and good. Expect when your body goes nutbar and becomes more like honey than blood. And that was me.
