24 hours of labor & 2 hours of pushing. Our little "girl" turned out to be a boy!

Somedays

I miss the ears that really listened to me & the eyes which really saw what I was feeling, thinking and doing...

The owners dress these two different throughout the year. Sadly someone stole the cute penguin outfits they had on in December.

Contemplation

Many things are on my plate this week:

1. My job - I am concerned as to whether or not I will or want to continue on with this job. I will stick it out to the bitter end.
2. Surgery & baby - The hubby's surgery finally got a date, February 26. Which is good since it is after the baby's due date of February 11. He will be hospitalized for 5 days and then convalescent leave for up to 90 days after.
   
3. The ex will be here February 4 to "help" with the baby. No stress there *insert sarcasm*
4. Family pet - we are considering getting a dog... seriously. After many months of looking at different breeds the Newfoundland is my personal choice. But you can't find a breeder, rescue or one in a pound within 500 miles of GF. *ugh*

I have been very stressed and angry over the first 3 but tonight I had to make the decision to either cry it out or chose a different approach. I went with the latter. We will see how that works for the anger/stress/frustration.

Any suggestions for doggie names?? :-D

There is only one word to say...

RIP

I love Suze

Ok maybe love is too strong but I really respect her.

Suze Orman is obnoxious on her TV & Radio shows but the message she is putting out there is right on!
