the maid quits

friday started out great with a trip to the gym, then the grocery store to prep the cupboards for the flood. After coming home and unpacking it all, making a great dinner and cleaning the house for a nice weekend at home with chris's days off, all hell breaks loose at 4:30. By this time I am just exhausted, a little from overdoing it at the gym and having braxton hicks all day. The kids and i were starving after smelling it for an hour and dediced to eat early cause it smelled so good. I asked for a little help after dinner and got complaints all the way around. I up and quit being the mom, caretaker, chef and the maid. needless to say I am a little embarressed at the state of our home and had to cancel the service tech for the internet today. I really thought after 1 day they would pull it together, but as of yesterday and this morning it is just adding up. I doubled my meds to keep from just getting up and doing it and trying to find something to do today. I wish all I did all day was watch tv and eat snacks(okay so it would drive me crazy as I don't watch tv and it drives me crazy that they can sit for days watching it) is it too much to ask to put things away when done, close cupboards after opening and throw away your own garbage? so here goes some pictures...

Wow what a whirl wind it has been these last couple of months. If you have been following, My mom is doing good, trying things on her own. my dad is okay dealing with round 2 of chemo and third ultrasound has shown our little girl it doing just great. We are now hoping to coast till spring. Wish us luck.


Per request hear are some of the details. After a trip to minneapolis the ultrsound showed a slightly thicker nuchal fold(1 in 15 chance for down) We opted for blood test and scheduled the amnio. When all the all blood results came back negative for chromosomal defects(chances went to 1 in 1700) and they found the bladder we cancelled the amnio and . YEAH what a huge relief. It was neat to see her in 3D and loved the time they spent with us. Check out her biceps...hehehehe
