Wednesday's Rambles

* First up, can I talk about pregnancy cravings for a minute?  I'm not sure why I asked that because even if any of you said, "No", I'm going to go ahead anyways.  Cravings are a miraculous thing.  I can be drooling like a starving lion over wanting needing salt and vinegar chips NOW and by the time Mike gets back from the store with them, I've moved on from the chips and onto my next craving ("Why didn't you pick up lime jello as well?!?").  What I crave one day most often ends up repulsing me the next.  For the most part, my biggest cravings have been for chocolate milk and kraft dinner...healthy, much?

* Nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than taking Kat to her dayhome (and I don't mean because of the break it gives me).  Even though I'm off work, I still take K there every Wednesday.  It gives me a day to get caught up on all the things that I've neglected throughout the week (read: everything).  The dayhome is only five houses away from us, so it makes for a nice, little walk in the morning.  When we walk up to the door, all the kids get so excited to see Kat.  The woman who runs the home always tells me how the kids talk about Kat when she's gone and how cute they think she is.  As soon as K's boots and coat are off, the kids swarm her like moths to a flame.  It just makes me so happy to see that she is loved :)

* In other pregnancy stuff, although I'm only 14 1/2 weeks along, my back is already causing me much grief.  It's only the left side, but the pain shoots down my leg and causes me to limp.  I suppose I should Google whether that's my sciatic nerve or not, but I just haven't gotten around to it yet.  You can just add that to the huge list of shit that I've been neglecting lately :)

* Remember when I wrote about a house I fell in love with and how the woman agreed to sell it to us?  Turns out the chick was lying (or on crack).  Imagine my surprise when I saw the house not only listed without giving us a heads up, but that she's asking for $28, 000 more than what she said she'd sell it to us for!!!  Although I'm FB friends with her (and we've had coffee a few times), I have yet to bring this little issue up with her.  I imagine that email would start with three simple letters...WTF?
