Umm...ya. Sorry. I've really just got nothing here....
Random
Something unexpected and irrelevant, but often amusing. A very over-used word now, please people, use it when something really is random. See example below for a true example of random.
Holly: Sorry to hear your hamster died Bob...
Bob: Window cleaners for British rail should watch out for flying man-eating deckchairs today, swimming in from the south along with the flea-ridden coathangers. The calf needs the blinds shut due to his purple parrot problem, and the pet washing line needs a slap round the face for dropping the flying monkey on the "queen of the night" tulips. The muffin man is responsible for the sudden outburst of rain yesterday as he forgot to pay the rent on his blue strawberries. I'm sorry, did you say you wanted a biscuit?
Holly: Random! Custard cream please.
- I just can't stop thinking about this baby. Stellan's story is... beautiful and ... heart wrenching and ...
- It made me cry more than the end of Prince Caspian.
- I was boohoo'in just watching that clip.
- I know. But it's sad!
- That movie absolutely rocks.
- Just so you know... the girls and I totally karoakied that song when I was looking up that link.
- Aaaaand... we rocked!
- We're thinking of putting that up on You Tube.
- Hahahahaha.
- There is a reason that I sing in the car.
- So Stellan's story reminded me of this one time...
- Okay. I cannot think the phrase "this one time" without immediately ending it with *at band camp.
- Idk why.
- As I was saying, reading the posts about Stellan took my mind back to when I was pregnant with Thing3.
- I was on COMPLETE bed rest for the.entire.pregnancy.
- She was born at 27 weeks and spent about 2 months in the NICU.
- That was... excruciating. To say the least.
- I seriously thought I was going to die from *the Mommy Guilt.
- That's a real thing. Ask any mom.
- You feel guilty for leaving the ones at home to be at the hospital.
- You feel guilty for leaving the one at the hospital to be at home.
- You feel guilty cause you're SO tired from running back and forth that all you really want to do is take a loooong nap and just kinda... wakeupwhenit'sallover.
- And you feel completely useless because really... there is nothing you can do to change it.
- Until you remember that you can get on your knees.
- In prayer people! Bring it up from the gutter ;)
- Thing3 is 7 years old now.
- And perfect!
She is the physical essence of my faith. - And the hope that other people need to cling to.
- I am so rockin Alanis right.now.
- I thought you might like to know that.
- Aaaaand I am just all outta random for today...
I bet she never runs out
I'm gonna get a bff.
I'm not really up on that whole thing anymore so...
Is there like a store or something that you can get one of those at?
Hit me up if you have one you don't need any more. K?
My son was born 3 months early (at 28 wks - 2lbs, 5oz - and is now a healthy 11 year old!).
I'm not sure about a store that sells bff's but if you can get your own show you can have people compete over the position. ;)
Aw hon, you're Thing3 story just about made me cry! The Mommy Guilt is POWERFUL but I do love your way of changing things! She IS beautiful, you've done a GREAT job :) I hope you find that BFF store, BFFs R Us, and find a GREAT one cause you SO deserve one!
I can't think the phrase "this one time" and not end it with "at band camp" too!! LOL :D
bed rest for the entire pregnancy? OMG, that must have been awesome! :D I mean except for the part where your baby's life is in danger, but the not doing anything part I would so totally love.. forgive me, I'm just lazy like that.. :D
She's fine now right? and that's the most important thing.. :)
No more guilt trip for you, you do what you have to do, although I totally understand what you were feeling..
She is VERY cute! :D
Hahaha I want a bff too! :D
BTW, I am ignoring my laundry because I am blog hopping, but that's okay, cause I rock! :D LOL :D
I love these "flows" or "streams" you blog! I did not know about your premie~WOW I can't imagine. You are SO STRONG!
My BFF moved states away. We still talk often on the phone, but I am really missing some IRL companionship. (((((HUGS))))) sandi
@ EvilTwin'sWife i love love love hearing those kinds of stories :)
@ Becca really??? hmmmmm... i could totally make a you tube series... ;)
@ Christine awwww. ur the bestest. but ur already taken. hahaha. you would prolly like the whole *Jayna's Story :)
lol @ Ane thnx at least I'm not the only one! & bedrest for an entire pregnancy is SO not as fun as it sounds. lol. & YAY u. U rock!
@ sandi i don't know what it's called either but that seems to be the way i'm most comfortable writing. probably cause it's like making a list of my thoughts. rofl. i have list issues. awwww. poor u. i'm going to come and live next door to you and we'll be bff's forever ;)
I love that movie too.
Mommy Guilt (patent pending) is very real. I felt that with my son and he was only in NICU for 5 days. 2 months would be exhausting.
Ahhhh, you and my wife would get along...she loves the Alanis too... her favorite...hehehe
