It's 11:48pm, almost midnight and my husband isn't home.
Being a Marine sucks for us wives sometimes. I'm starting to understand how much work he has and what the life means. I get a little insecure often, of course.
When I first met my husband, we were at a little restaurant that had dancing and a DJ. I went with my cousin and my best friend. They decided to go dance. I decided to sit down for a bit.
And then a guy comes, he asks if I want to dance. I tell him "No, I;m fine".
He continues and asks "Why not?"
Why not? WHY NOT? Who asks why not after getting rejected? Haha !
"I'm tired right now. I'm taking a break."
"Is that your excuse?" he asks.
"No" I say, "Its my REASON".
He looks away and then asks "May I sit down?"
I gave him the you-are-the-weirdest-guy look. But I said ''Fine".
He ended up telling me about himself. I was willing to listen after the little persistence he gave. He told me where he was from, that he was military, and that he was only here another couple years.
I called it fibbing. He swore to me it was all true, I refused to believe.
We kept talking, through the night. Danced a little. Talked some more, until it was time to go. He asked me for my number and I gave it to him hesitantly.
I left the restaurant/club and immediately texted him. I knew I wanted to get to know him better. He texted me back and that's how we began. He was an hour and a half away from me, but he managed to come see me after my college classes. He took me out on dates and we just had plenty of fun together.
We fell in love.
Days went by, months, a year. we got engaged. (That's another story.)
We decided to move in together. The distance would kill us and frankly,we knew we could be happier.
(ADULT ACTION STATED BELOW)
We began our intimate relationship. Boy did we have it hahah! But I informed him about my chances for having a baby; It was slim to none. I was constantly going to my OB/GYN for Multiple ovarian cysts. I was never diagnosed with PCOS, but the cysts reoccurred monthly. I've had surgery to have them removed.
Anywhoo, we decided to try for a baby. BOLD move. But it didn't work. Until one day...
I secretly recorded him speaking to our hopefully-there baby. H e fell in love quick. And so did I.
Unfortunately, that didn't last. I got horrible cramping, and bleeding that we ruled it a miscarriage. I felt embarrassed. Shocked. Worthless.
I never told the doctor about it.
But after that day, we decided not to try. We knew we weren't ready. And we accepted it.
Shortly thereafter, here is my older sister gathered with all of us as we headed to the Bay restaurants for some yummy seafood on 4th of July. She stated that she was cramping. I realized I hadn't had my menstrual cycle yet. I figured, its the cysts. Days passed, weeks passed. Until I got a box of three pregnancy tests.
I took one and there is the result. I couldn't believe it!!!
At this rate, the baby would be a month old!!!
I took another and the huge positive sign just flashed right in front of my face with a quickness!
And then I knew, I was going to be a mommy.
My then Fiance came home from overnight duty and I surprised him by giving him a gift. A pair of knit slippers, tiny ones. He cried.
And now here we are.
31 weeks and counting for our little angle to come. <3

Bed Rest days;; Still trying to make a living ??
Hello all !!! As I mentioned before, New years is right around the corner. I have many things to do, so little time! I've been busy trying to multitask, but with a little bouncy active person in my belly, that doesn't always get done..
Trying to find a Job as a SAHM isn't coming to well either. It doesn't seem as though any of my medical skills teching helps in any online field "/ So I've been trying to clean out my closet and put some stuff to sell online. I'm not getting much of big amount but it's better than nothing, right?
I have many CD's that could get sold, but it's coming out to about 50 cents each. AHHHH !!! Not even close to half of what I paid for each ! I'm guessing maybe starting a little company to aid others. Maybe that can help me stay busy and earn a little living? Somehow, I'll figure it out. God made gave my husband and I this little blessing for a reason.
Many ideas, many ideas. But I surely want to do things right.
Anyone have a legitimate work from home job? "/

Bed Rest Days;; Holidays !!
Today is the 26th, only a couple of days away from the New year ! We have many people anxious, others not too fond of the idea of a new year here, with minimal accomplished this passing year... If that makes any sense.
I'm excited !! With my first baby girl on the way, I can't wait to see who she looks like, how she laughs, how much she'll eat and so much more!!! things are still being set up and put together. Even the baby shower!! SO MUCH PROCRASTINATION !!!
1. Invitations
2. Food
3. Place/Rec Center
4. Shower Favors
5. Games
6. ....
I can't think of anything else just yet but I'm sure there's more in that list that needs to be done. I'll think of it soon after I finish eating my soup and get more focused. Being sick with a stomach viruson Christmas and christmas Eve couldn't be more memorable. That we shall talk more of later :)
In the meantime, enjoy your family and friends and perhaps Eggnog? Happy Holidays !! <3

Bed rest, Day... Untracked
I've lost track of many things thus far. I've been feeling a little bit less than how I should. Worst should I say.
I am currently 7 months pregnant and the stretching and carrying the weight without a pregnancy belt kicks my butt! It's no joke, especially for a once -used- to- be petite girl. I've started setting up the baby's little space in my room. (A search for a condo is currently in the works!)
We've got diapers, baby shampoo, little socks, mittens, clothes, little head bow and of course the crib!!!
** Tips for new mommies !!!!! (or any mommy at that):
When shopping for clothes on the racks, make sure there are little to no stains for past customers handling. It's best to buy Dreft or baby detergent, gather all clothes that did not come in packaging, and wash them before the baby comes. It's a little tedious but better to be clean, safe and welcome baby home to a nice rack of clean clothing.
Aside from that, I've been working on little ol' me! Holidays are coming and finding work as a remote position is still looking super slim. But, I'm still on it.
Anywhoo, I digress. I've been working on my nails but, eh. I'm still working on even being home 24/7 !
I made a little design on my nails. I used a light color, Funky fingers to be exact from Five below (I never used it much before). I applied that as a first coat. You can apply a second coat if you'd like, i just let that dry and added a glitter coat on top. I made sure my ring fingers were painted only glitter though :) Add a little clear coat and ta-daaa !!! Simple yet holiday like !! :)
