Dear PT Friends,
Things have been pretty bleak lately, since Binx, and I just haven't felt the same...about life, PT, everything, really. And, I have 'put off' telling you all of some positive things going on in my life. While I can't say for sure the cloud has lifted, I do find myself preparing for the next stage in my life- mommyhood. In September, I will be welcoming a little hooman into the world. At 38, this will be quite a shock for my house/life/world, but, one that I am excited about. I am about 4 months along, right now, and already feeling awkward. The sickness and sheer exhaustion part seem mainly out of the way, but, I still feel pretty tired much of the time. I am not quite ready for maternity clothes, but, my normal clothes are very, very tight.
The best news is Lillycat is retiring at the end of this year, and will be a stay at home Grammy! Since she raised 8 of us, I have no doubt she will do wonders with my child. This should free her up to do more posting on PT, right?
While I do NOT anticipate posting pics of my ever expanding tum-tum (lest some of you type *rub*rub*rub*), I will keep you updated as to the cool stuff (namely the gender!!!). I have had one ultrasound done already, due to my age and size, thank God, it was determined there was just one in this litter. I am not doing any additional testing, my choice, but, want to know the gender at the first available opportunity! I think that is still 5 weeks off.
So, my quietness has been two fold, and will probably continue for awhile, but, I wanted you all to know what is going on with me.
Johanna
