This has been a busy week! It doesn’t seem to stop, either!
Friday morning I had an appointment with Pearl Place Women’s Care to confirm my pregnancy. I went in at 9:30. The appointment was shorter than I thought it would be. They confirmed my pregnancy, the nurse talked to me a bit and then I had my blood drawn. The nurse who did that wasn’t very good. 🙁 I was bleeding more than I should have been when I got home, and it hurt the rest of the day. Today I have a nice bruise there. My dr.’s office set my due date at Feb. 6. So we will have to see. 🙂
That was a nice appointment. Since it was so quick I got to spend time with Jef in the morning. I like that. 🙂 He made us all fried potatoes with cheese – YUMMY. So we ate those and hung out. After he went to work, I put the kids down for naps. Then we went out. I wanted to go down to the coffeeshop Tina & Kamali are buying. The buyers accepted their offer, so they are finalizing things. So I thought I would pay rent while I was down there and then go to Fred Meyer. The kids and I had coffee (me) and a strawberry Italian soda, a raspberry scone and a blueberry muffin. The muffin was good, but I think the scone was stale. The coffee was good too. Once our reconnaissance mission was done, we went to pay rent.
I’d lost my envelope, though, so I had to stop at Walgreen’s and get some. The people there were very nice. The lady even found a coupon so I didn’t have to pay $.99 only $.69 for my envelopes!! 🙂 I thought that was really nice.
After paying rent, we went to Fred Meyer. The playplace was closed, but the kids were good. They got a cookie (free from the bakery!), and corndogs & pizza stick (Daniel). When I was done shopping, I found a register that had one person. This person had some problem, though, so I waited and waited. Then this lady came to take me, and some other lady scooted in front of me! Arg. I let her go, because she only had two things. Then I got up there, and the lady rung me up just fine. Then I handed her my coupons. I said, “I printed these off the internet, so they may not scan. Most of the other cashiers just type them in.” She tried scanning them, but they didn’t work. Then she thought she had an ad there, but it was the wrong ad. She ended up calling this guy over, and he said to me, “Ma’am, we always keep the coupon ads at the customer service desk.” I know that, but this works — I’ve done it before, and THEY JUST TYPE IT IN!!! Some other worker came over while the man was getting the ad and asked, “Did you try typing it in?” My cashier said, “Oh, I guess I could try that.” OH MY GOODNESS! I’d already told her that. They acted like I was doing something wrong. I’ve printed out coupons from the internet about four times now. No one has ever said anything. The first two times I did it, I asked specifically if it was ok, and was told yes. Grrrr.
That was Friday. Jef came home & we watched “The Maltese Falcon”. It was a fun movie. 🙂 I only fell asleep for a bit. 🙂
Today I have been down to Puyallup to pick up a Po toy for Nicholas from a freecycler. Then we went to Safeway and got some groceries & snacks for our trip.
Tomorrow we are going down to see Matt, Sarah & Baby Max. 🙂 Should be fun!!
Oh, and the boys have been telling everyone that I am going to have another baby. I don’t think they understand that the baby won’t come until February! 😀
