ONE.
I had a good time at a hockey game with my friends and Jerry last weekend! I pretty much didn’t watch any of the game or know what was going on, but it’s always a good time with them!
TWO.
My aunt and I saw Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat on Thursday. We’ve had season passes to our local theater for the past few years and get to see around five touring musicals a year. I didn’t really think I would like this one but I thought it was pretty good… definitely not a favorite though. My absolute favorite musical of all time is Rent. I’ve seen it live about five times now including once in NYC for my 16th birthday. Wicked is probably my second favorite, but my heart really belongs to Rent. Prior to the show, I was feeling weird and thought I was having Braxton Hicks contractions… got a little scared there!
THREE.
Now that we finally have cable, I’ve started to get into a few new shows. So far, I’m really liking Selfie on ABC and House Hunters Renovations on HGTV. Once I catch up on Selfie, I’m going to move on to another show. I’m going to catch up on one at a time for the shows that are available on demand. As for House Hunters, Jerry and I are loving seeing these houses transform because we’re working on our own house. Of course, our renovations are much simpler and WAY less expensive, but it’s still fun to dream, right? We saw a split level episode the other day with a layout similar to our own house. They spent 80 thousand bucks on renovations ALONE. Um… yeah… we’re lucky to do just $800 worth of work, but we still got some pretty good ideas.
FOUR.
Speaking of renovations, our latest house update was replacing the dining room light and the kitchen light. I now have these mason jar style lights in each of those rooms as well as in our front foyer. I love them! Check out the before and afters (kitchen on top and dining room below). So excited to be bringing our house from the 70s to modern times. Woohoo!
FIVE.
Really, really excited for my baby shower on Sunday! I’m even more excited to actually meet the little guy in January and finally see what he looks like. Actually, I thought I was going into early labor last night after having the most excruciating back pain ever along with a stomach ache, nausea, and heartburn. When Jerry finally got home from work right before 2, I started to feel a bit better. He found me sitting on the couch in pain, almost crying, because I couldn’t lay down any longer. I took some Tylenol and Tums, drank some ice water, and he rubbed my back. I slept with a pillow up against my back since my huge pregnancy pillow is nice to lounge on, but too big to sleep on, although I think I’m going to try sleeping on it again soon. I was finally able to fall asleep and am feeling okay today. I think it’s just a sign I need to listen to my body and rest more. Caleb sure knows how to scare his mama!
That’s five for now — see you in the next chapter.
