Country living in the city???

... Posted in Everyday life

Well, I don't have a cold now, just a chronically stuffy nose, and I am impossibly round with 4 weeks left to waddle around Moncton. Waddling is just sooo.... not graceful.

On the upside, spring has finally sprung in our neck of the concrete jungle (I'd say woods, but alas, we haven't found a suitable country acreage yet.... lol). Nice, warm, sunny days, and the backyard is de-swampifying itself.

In other news, we discovered that one of our deep-freezes is unsalvageable... it accidently got unplugged and by the time we realized it, it had a decidedly rank odour. Hubby was going to try cleaning it today, but decided against it when he nearly threw up from the smell (that's a pretty good indicator that it's beyond help). So, he and a couple of our kids lugged it outside, and just to keep it company the water cooler that's been sitting idle and broken in the kitchen went out with it. Now, we just need to park an old, beat up car next to them, and we'll be all practiced up for living in Albert County... by the way, I joked with a friend who actually lives in Albert County today (she's minus the beat-up old car in the yard, but she's a newbie.. give her time) that we could just use it for a garbage bin at the end of the driveway.... then what should we see on a drive out her way this afternoon.....? Yup, somebody stole my idea. I really don't belong here. Anyway... big-garbage pick-up is in a few weeks, so I guess the junk can perty up my driveway til then.

Did I mention I have only 4 weeks to go??? And no, I have never delivered before my due date. I am late with everything, this included. At least one could say I'm consistent.

Hi Jen! Been a while since we talked so I thought I'd swing by to see what's up :)

Those last few weeks of pregancy are so tiring, yet full of excitement! I pray that everything goes smoothly, and that you have a safe and healthy delivery!
