Tomorrow is Only a Day Away

We've been happy all day today :) The guy from the movers came out to estimate the number of boxes they would need. He was only here for about 20 minutes and said my house was in way better order than most he's seen. That made me feel good and a lot less stressed about "preparing" everything.

I made an appointment to get my hair cut tomorrow! I'm nervous because some stylists just don't listen to their customers and end up butchering them, sending them home crying. My stylist will be Michael. I am hoping he's one of those fun gay guys who knows what he's doing. I'm bringing in my picture and I am praying real hard that my hair comes out resembling it or I might have to pitch a fit.

Noah's new thing is telling me secrets. It tickles! His secret today has been "Daddy's coming home tomorrow" every time. He was telling me a secret and sorta smooshed poor Tristan's head and made him cry so I gave him the "mom" look. He didn't hurt him, it was just naptime and Tris was a little edgy.

I found someone to ship the car since it's just not sensible to drive it all over the place with us while we visit family. It's gonna cost about $600 :P I took pictures of all our high-value items and their serial numbers. I logged all the DVD's. Now all I need to do is call a stinkin' realtor and get this house on the market! I don't want to let it go, but I don't want to have to worry about it. I planned our roadtrip all out. We're going to pass through Saint Louis, Nashville, and Atlanta. Many fun things to do in all those places. I've got maps, visitors guides, coupons, event calendars, and phones numbers galore. I'm ready! I'm actually excited about getting out of this house for once, even if I'm never coming back.

I am so ridiculously excited about tomorrow!!!!! I am going to have this house so clean by time I have to head out to the airport. I am contemplating bringing my camera and asking a random bystander to snap a few shots of us. I'm usually too excited about the blessed event to be willing to take a camera out. That would be wasting valuable hugging/kissing/crying time, after all ;) I just hope I can sleep tonight. I think I'll call Josh again. He's probably going out of his mind with boredom. They took all his stuff. I think all he has left are a few books and whatever he needs for the airport tomorrow. Holy crap... did you hear that?! TOMORROW! :D

Allie Update

Though I have been depressed, life is trudging on. I had my 7mo baby appointment and everything is right on track. I'm 28wks and 5 days along. My belly is a whopping 29cm. I didn't get any guff about losing a little weight. My blood pressure wasn't high this time. My sugar test came back normal. I've got a little sciatica so the doc gave me some stretches to try out. She also suggested I finally cash in those 2 prenatal massage certificates I got for my birthday. Other than that, everything looks good. Noah got to press the button to find the baby's heartbeat. He loves this doctor, she always includes him. My friend Brandon, kind soul that he is, showed up yesterday to mow my lawn. He didn't just mow, though. He brought all his own equipment, including gas... he edged and weed whacked and blew all the clippings away. He went over the lawn twice so that everything would be mulched up pretty well. I couldn't believe how nice my yard looked. I

Victim Triangle

Image
Thought I would share this on here since I've shared it with at least 3 people individually at this point.  I've been working on  establishing and maintaining healthy personal boundaries  so any instance in my life where I have unhealthy boundaries have been really obvious.  Still not great at dealing with those instances, but I'm getting better all the time.  While I'm working, this keeps popping up at different times to illustrate my inter/intra-personal communication cycles that need to be broken. https://www.karpmandramatriangle.com/ The hardest part for me has been recovering from taking responsibility for everyone's emotional state.  I would feel immense pressure to involve myself in other peoples' triangles, thinking I had to play the mediator role.  I would get intense feelings of anxiety, thinking about their expectations of me to fix their relationship... or feel it was my duty to point out if I saw an issue (without ever being asked or expected

Enough Planning, More Doing

I've been researching, reading about, diving into, writing about, and thinking about building confidence and self-trust for about 8 years now. It's time to get more intentional and active about it. I think I'm ready to move into that phase finally. I have a tendency to take in information and keep mulling it over, writing and expounding upon this that and the other, but now it's time for an actual plan. An action plan. I understand the problem as much as I can from the outside looking in. Now it's time to create learning opportunities: to make mistakes and deal with the consequences or to achieve something and deal with the praise. That's the next phase of learning... doing . So today I am creating a specific list of tasks that I have to do in the months ahead that specifically target insecurities and seek to force me to deal with the reality of those insecurities. The goal is to be able to build resilience  by proving my old voices wrong with a stack of accompl
