So I didn't need coffee. I was just in a bad mood all day. I'm hoping it's a new batch of hormones that will inspire this child to come out and join the rest of us.
Remember how I was hoping the full moon would help? Well someone I know online, who was due on Valentines, stole my full moon. An hour after we spoke of 'hoping the full moon would help' she went into labor and is now holding her son.
It's all coming back to me now. The days past the due date. People having babies early, me having nothing to do but mope. People asking "No baby?". OF COURSE THERE'S NO BABY, YOU'D KNOW IF THERE WAS A BABY!!!!!
To make matters worse Mr. Sloth caught a cold this weekend and is now feeling really crappy; achy everywhere, sore throat... Lovely. He told me if I went into labor he'd be completely useless.
Greaaaaat.
Luckily Demand was decently laid back today. She didn't nap though and she wanted to go sledding all day but there's no snow on the hill anymore. She'd also convinced herself that we were going to chiropractors this afternoon so she was obviously upset when we didn't go to the chiropractors but went down for a nap instead.
We made it through though. We danced, we painted, we both bathed, we made a fort and played with a flashlight, and walked to the mail box. I finally got the package we'd been waiting for so now I'm trying to figure out a new baby carrier while I'm still pregnant, which is rather tricky.
Tomorrow is the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes and it is the year of St. Bernadette. Having a baby tomorrow would be delightful, but I should probably just make plans to fill the day. Perhaps after our 9am chiropractor appointment Demand and I can head to the mall. Our options are endless there, although being frustrated about still being pregnant might entice me to spend money. Then if I'm still pregnant by dinner time I guess I'll be heading to CCD and back home for some recorded television. (Whoopie!)
Maybe I should do my Bible Study for Thursday in hopes that Murphy's Law will prevent me from going? Now that I think of it, I should probably plan a class for CCD tomorrow in case I have to show up there, too.
Well if you hear from me tomorrow I'm only going to be more angry and moody. So I don't know if you're going to want to read.

You're reminding me of Rachel on Friends, when she was in labor and all the other women were coming into her room and then leaving to have their babies before her. :)
I'm sorry!! It must be frustrating.
Sorry girl :( IF it makes you feel better, or at least lifts your mood, I was in pre-term labor for 9 weeks which resulted in bedrest, drugs, monitors on my belly, and 5-8 contractions an hour. It was HORRIBLE! So.... thank goodness you can still go sledding? Ok, you probably just want to slap me for trying to cheer you up, and that's ok, I won't feel it through the computer. Love ya!
