being a couch potato: week one

Well, besides the phone ringing off the hook, I’m getting a lot of rest.  Seriously, isn’t this the American dream?  Lounging around like a couch potato? Ugh. It is driving me crazy. My fingers are twitching to clean the messy house and get things done. I hate that “What did you do today?” consists of “one load of laundry that I never folded and heated up leftovers for dinner.” That is totally not me.

Oh well. Its only three weeks…  Only three weeks… Only three weeks… I’m feeling okay, but antsy. Labor has stopped with this medicine I’m on, I’m only having the occasional contraction. This medicine makes me dizzy, nauseous, shaky and bit flaky. (Um, more than usual, I mean. Ahem.) The medicine actually makes me want to lay down, so I guess that’s good.

I’m convinced that daytime tv has reached an all-time low. Oh, to have Tivo!! I need to attack our Netflix queue and get some new movies out here! Any movie or book recommendations?

Anyway, we are overwhelmed with help being offered everywhere we turn, which is just so encouraging. Even though we’re in good shape right now, it is so nice to know there is help waiting in the wings!

    Do you Tivo? You can keep me updated on what is on Rachel Ray in the morning if you want…or what is on TLC and HGTV. I just finished Eat, Pray, Love and loved it. I would be happy to send you my copy if you want something to read!! Hang in there and just think how happy bump is that they just have to rest and float all day. This too shall pass!!!
