My thoughts about being up at 04.55 to get ready for a 09.00 meeting in Kenora today. I'm seven-and-a-half months pregnant. This is a crime against humanity.Labels: Bitching About Nothing

Sharing the journey that has taken me from being a single girl in the advertising agency world to a married mommy running my own freelance writing and consulting business (and every random adventure in between).
About Me
- Name: Lindsay
- Location: Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
THINGS I LOVE: Thunderstorms, power ballads, princess camping, exploring new cities, Jon Stewart, greatest hits CDs, clever ads, packing for a trip, George Clooney, impractical footwear, movies about spies, Starbucks, reading an entire book in one sitting, a house full of friends, movies about spies, buying presents, a perfect French manicure, warm modernist architecture, getting flowers for no reason, being faux brunette, Mary Poppins, making lists on Post-It notes, decorating for Christmas, having a brilliant middle-of-the-night 'aha!' idea and then actually remembering it in the morning / THINGS I HATE: People who whine, wearing sweats in public, 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner, birds, American tourists in foreign countries, taking down the Christmas tree, poems that rhyme, the misuse of semicolons, being lied to, unpacking after a trip, being closed-minded, naming your kid something common but then spelling it stupidly, cowboys, overly cautious drivers, fake curse words, ridiculously long surnames, strangers who start awkward conversations with you in places you can't readily escape
Keeping Track

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Hoping you find your groove despite the way-too-early start for a woman in your "condition" - that sounds so 1950s, sorry about that.
LOL!
You are 6 weeks from delivery and you are not making it easy on yourself.You are entitled to say you can't go.That is your privilege ,isn't it?pregnancy is not an excuse---its a condition.You're correct-----it did happen in the 50's,where we stayed home .We were so blest ,weren't we.?It was a valid condition to stay home.Prayers go with you!!Love you!
Well, I survived, in case anyone cared. I don't know what the worst part was: the early start, the late return, the two long drives, the sitting in a board room for 7.5 hours... And to think, I worked *so* hard to be 'senior' so that I'd be considered mandatory at these meetings - hehe.
It was a good meeting. So it was totally worth it. But we got back so late that I missed yoga. And I need to be out the door before 07.30 tomorrow for my second glucose test. Blech.
PS - Aww, Grandma... You're so sweet. But I am still a little more than two months from my due date. And I love my job. I'd be bored to tears sitting at home right now - and probably driving all the people I love absolutely crazy :)
*gasp* how dare they?
Praying this AM for the nasty test. Some things are actually worse than this:) Glad you survived the trip.
