Friday

Things are going well. Neither Miss J nor I have gotten the dreaded H/M/F disease!! And I am hopeful we won't. DH's symptoms are residing, but he could still be contagious for the next few weeks. It is just like a cold, the way that it is spread and passed around. So we aren't out of the woods completely yet (but are you really ever with a cold?), but at least DH is feeling better and is able to hug/kiss us again. And tonight, he will finally come back to bed. The doc suggested he sleep in a separate room for a couple nights so as not to risk passing it on to me...I think DH just was sick of me tossing and turning and hogging the bed all night. He actually told me last night that he slept so much better on the couch in the back room than in the bed...ugh. Well, honestly, I have enjoyed having all the pillows and the entire bed to myself too. I don't toss and turn as much, but it is nice to sprawl out and have all these pillows surrounding me. I just wish I didn't hurt, like joint wise, but that is another story!!

Kimmy asked about DH's job. It is going very, very well. Hence the reason I really haven't commented on it lately. It is a very small dealership, and since it is really only him as a service writer, and his manager, it is slow. A much slower pace than what he is used to in a BMW dealership with 7-writers. But, he gets along really well with his boss and the GM. They all have motorcycles, guns (shooting), and cars in common...so they have a lot to talk about. I think DH is happy. Happy in the sense he is not under the gun all the time and feeling like his job is on the line, nor like he is ripping people off just to make a buck. The downside, that buck is not huge. His pay is average, lower than the other places, but, I think we determined that it will be just enough for us to get by. He just got his commission pay for August and I was thinking it was going to be half of what he actually got...and that was a slow month. So as he gets used to the car line, and the people, and the economy changes for the better (hopefully sooner than later) hopefully those commission checks will be even more. That would be a godsend!!

So, things are good. Health is good. BP2 is good and kicking away. I feel pretty good today, but there are days where I just want to lay down all day. Walking is exhausting and I just hurt...but still far between the good days. 4 weeks and 2-days....gosh...time is flying. I still don't know what to do about the letters. I appreciate the feedback that really the XYZ does not mean it is final. I think it was just a hormone thing at the time...I am getting more comfortable with the idea, and may go get letters this weekend. We have some cleaning up to do in DH's bedroom/office. So hopefully we can tackle that this weekend. The baby's room is pretty much done. Have to wash some more clothes, get some diapers (forgot about that one), move the changing table in there, and get my bag packed for the hospital. Other than that...things are moving and grooving.

Have a great weekend all. Thanks for all your prayers and support this week!!
