Somehow, for some reason, I feel like rewriting my blog. Again. This laptop is certainly an exercise in patience for me since it keeps erasing what I have written. Not too bad when you've only got a few sentences, but when you're done writing an entry and it disappears, it doesn't make me terribly happy.
I read somewhere an interesting thing about the human brain that got me thinking today. Apparently, if you took a paragraph, and for every word you left the first and last letters in place but mixed up the rest of the letters, it generally is not very difficult to read and decipher what is meant. Interesting enough, but I was wondering if I just typed all the letters that I would normally type with my left hand, and skipped all the letters I would type with my right, would you still be able to read what I'm writing? This would make things a little easier for me, since my right hand seems to spend an inordinate amount of time sleeping.

"Apparently this is one of the fun regular symptoms of pregnancy. It's a form of carpal tunnel syndrome, brought on by fluid retention putting pressure on nerves. It should go away by 6 weeks after birth."
So much for that idea...
Anyways. I think I'll leave it at that, for fear of the computer destroying more of my writing. Sorry, no pictures again, as I want to avoid plugging anything into this temperamental beast. Besides, pictures will be much more exciting in a month or so...

Especially for Danielle
So, I just wrote out TWO blog entries.
And both of them were DELETED before I could post them. I am just somewhat ANNOYED at the situation.
Apparently, according to Danielle, since I am home now I must have lots of time to blog and blog and blog, and since I have not blogged for several weeks, I am neglecting my duties as a stay-at-home pre-mom. I apologize for my lack of posting, Danielle, but I will need an extra large dosage of patience if my blogs keep on getting deleted like this!
So yes, I am now a stay-at-home pre-Mom -- my birthday present to myself was my last day of work. The days were getting longer and longer, and my feet were pretty much destroyed by the time I got home. It's been nice to be somewhat alive at 5 o'clock and motivated to cook dinner!
AHA I just outwitted the computer - it tried to delete my post again but I FOILED it by copying and pasting what I had written so far. Take that, computer!! This old laptop is a little grumpy because I resurrected it out of the closet and have forced it to be my Internet connection at home! :)
I've been keeping myself quite busy despite being done work - visiting, volunteering, Bible study, reading, painting, cooking, cleaning, and all the random things that sit on the back-burner until a time when motivation, time, and energy collide into action. It has been such a blessing to be at home! I have enjoyed it immensely.
Baby seems to be doing quite well. Another 6 or 7 or 8 weeks until we get to meet our little bundle of joy. Despite his or her best attempts at trying to escape mommy's tummy by karate-kicking a way out, Baby is still quite firmly tucked in there, and losing space day by day. Somedays it seems like Baby doesn't sleep at all, but thankfully he or she has been quite considerate to never wake up mommy while she's sleeping. Perhaps Baby will be born knowing that bedtime is between 10 pm and 6 am. Perhaps. There's always a small chance right?
I would be motivated to keep writing, but fear of losing what I have written so far is leading me to desire leaving the computer alone for a little while instead of continuing to write my blog-novel. No pictures today folks, as this computer is already grumpy enough without me trying to load pictures up on it as well!
