Ready or Not

NOT. But it doesn't really matter if I am or not. Cassandra will be induced if she doesn't have the baby by Thursday morning. She has been having relatively mild but steady contractions since Sunday night when we went to the hospital. They kept her for a couple of hours, but then gave her a shot of morphine and sent her home. She went in for her last scheduled checkup today. She is still only dilated to a 1. She was so miserable that the doctor offered to induce labor Thursday morning. I think that's a good idea. Lucky for her she's not dealing with military doctors. I went 15 days overdue with Christopher before they would induce labor.

Oh yeah, and my son-in-law proves to me on a near-daily basis that he is an immature jerk. He and my 12-year-old son have a lot in common. I wish I were exaggerating.

Maybe I should rename my blog. I think I need "Whine" in the title lately. Sorry peeps -- I'm sure the happy blogging and reading of blogs will resume shortly. I think I'm going to go escape to Hogwarts for awhile.

Hey, that's what blogs are for, 2flower! You go ahead and rant if you have to....we don't mind one bit. I sure hope Cassandra has her baby soon! We're all pulling for her! And I appreciate you taking the time out to play MM this week; I know things have been quite busy for you....take care, my friend! =)

I'm with Otto; if I didn't rant on my blog I'd have nothing else to say! ;)

Just take care of yourself; do what you need to do and we'll be here. [Hogwarts is a GREAT place to hide out! :> ]

Pam and Otto are right. Your blog is about you. That is the best part about it. You don't have to put up a front or act like anything other than what you feel like right now.
