The title pretty much sums it up. I always freak out, think it out, fester a bit- and then I'm all better. I can be such a drama queen sometimes. I'm glad Greg keeps me around. We're gonna try to move in as soon as we can, I guess, and just sleep on the ground! Hooray!!!
I love doing hair. I wish I could do it more (y'know, more than 2-4 hours a week!). It makes me feel good. I actually wanna work 6 hours a week after the baby, if I can. I never thought I'd say that. I used to really think badly on working mothers- but I love doing hair! To me, it'd be no different than setting a weekly hour to play with my friends! I always feel so elated and accomplished when I'm done. I think it would be good to get me out of the house, on a regular basis too. But, we're not really sure how Greg's schedule's gonna be yet- so it might not happen. It all depends on time, and how much we'll have. So we'll see.
Greg and I just SCORED on these big building blocks for the baby! I know it will be awhile 'till he or she can actually play with them, but still! They were FREE on craigslist and we're so excited! And we got a laundry basket out of it too. We need one. And then I stopped by 2 garage sales on the way home, all by chance, and got Catch Phrase, some vinegar bottles and shower curtain rings (which we also need) for a whopping $2.50. All small things but it made me really happy! Greg and I are gonna go thrift store shopping now to look for shelves and things. We'll see how it goes!

I am so sorry Megan that you have been feeling low. It is hard when things don't fall into place like we want them to. I wish I could help you with things, and come down there. I just don't have the energy I used to have. I hope you get the keys on Mon. and I think it is a good idea for you to work a few hours after the baby gets really started, when she is able to stay with her dad or granmma so she could be with someone who loves her. I wish I were there I could do that. I loved watching Ruby when she was little and I have a great bond with her. I love her so much, course I love them all as they are so special. As I know I will love your little one. I can see why you love to do hair as it is an art form and so you can create beautiful hair and that is so special and it makes others feel really good about themselves. It is wonderful when we can lift others by the things we do and create. If you need a place to crash on Tue, let us know as we will be here. I love you very much and think happy thoughts.
wow- didn't know you had blogged so much the past few days! - you will soon be hooked to thrifting- and you will learn what is and isn't a good deal, and what to bother looking for at thrift stores and what to bother buying at a real store- and you will learn all the stores around you- you WILL LOVE IT! I just wish I lived by you so I could do it with you!
I love that it is now garage sale season! My sister's and I keep talking about how excited we are for it. Great job on the good deals!
Aaah! Garage sales and thrift stores. Love them. Just keep a little list or mental list of what you are looking for and soon it will come your way at an awesome price. Just remember, anything can be painted and redone. I wish you lived closer, i would have you do my hair every time.
cool about the finds!!!
