It's been far too long!

Comment Published at 07:2907:298 comments8 comments42 Visits42 VisitsReport
Wow, I'm having a really hard time getting on Minti.  It makes me sad.  I miss all of you!  Life has just gotten busier and my computer time is cut in half.  There are so many things clambering for my attention and it's just going to get worse when the new baby comes.  I feel bad about missing out on so many things here.  I hope all my dear friends are doing okay.
I'm dealing with a little heat wave here, might even have to turn on the air conditioner today.  The heat really affects me, more than I thought it would.  I'm so big with baby!  I look like I'm 7 months and I'm only 5 and a half.  I'll try to post a photo, if I can find it.  We've had trouble with our computer lately and everything has to be set up again.  At our last appointment we found out that part of one of baby's kidneys is enlarged a bit.  Apparently, not a big deal, but we need to keep an eye on it, so I'll be getting another ultrasound in my 3rd trimester.  The funny thing is, my sister-in-law, who is also expecting, found out the same thing about her baby just a month before we did.  We heard all about it and when our doctor told us about our baby, I was thinking, oh yah, no big deal.  We already know it's nothing to worry about.
Arianna turned two years old yesterday!  She's so adorable, I love her to bits.  I can't believe she's two already.  Wow.  She opened her gifts from Mommy and Daddy yesterday.  We only actually bought her one gift, but the others were free.  I was excited to give her a doll, clothing and a bed that I used to play with.  Almost made me cry.  We're having a party for her on Saturday with just family and yet there'll still be 15 people here.  So I'm busy cleaning up and getting things ready.
Well, that's the low down on how things are going here.  Hope all is well with everyone!
Hugs!

Thanks for the birthday wishes.  She's had fun so far.  I can certainly take the rain.  Bring it on.  I much prefer the warmth, just not the humidity.

Well pregnacy and the hot weather kinda suck,I remember how uncomfortable it was. Are you feeling healthy other wise? How are the plays coming? Is that wrapping up? A few more weeks and schools out! My daughter has her first teaching position!!!

I feel great other than the heat, which is so nice because I'm able to do more around the house.  The play is over!  Yay.  I did enjoy it, just a lot of work.  I told them I won't be directing anymore, so although sad it's a good thing.  Your daughter is going to teach?  That's wonderful!  It is definitely a rewarding career. Wish her luck for me.

Re: It's been far too long!

But you'll go back to it ,right? Seems you should as you have a passion for drama so you're probably good at it. My daughter has always wanted to make a difference. She loves the drama class,she's very innovative,loves teaching grade 12 english,but the problem grade 9 class is giving her heartbreak! Several behavioural students are making each class tough. Ruining it for all others of course. Her career is on its way,this girl has an Honours BA from Queens in English and Phyic.,Honours BA in Illustration from OCAD, and Honours BA Teaching Degree. So she's loving it except for the students that in all honesty should be elsewhere or under supervision.

So so very good to hear you are healthy and enjoying yourself. An other hot one today so hope you got the air con cranked up! Take care.

I think I remember the students who gave me a hard time more than those who didn't.  In fact, I feel more concern and love for two students in particular who were an immense challenge.  Now I see them and they're doing so well.  Although those kids are so hard to deal with, they somehow get a special spot in your heart.  And if not, it really only lasts 10 months of your life.
