Kinda Busy Or Something

Currently Greg and I are still working on our baby blog. I won’t be revealing anything about the pregnancy until the blog is finished. I have been distracted by the urge to create baby registries. Greg works and naps. Sometimes I lack energy, etc. We moved my office into the bedroom so we’d both be more comfortable. It’s cozier in the bedroom, I can watch tv and we can both be together. The bedroom is also closer to the fridge and bathroom, lol. The lighting is much better too. I’ll probably be taking a break from my web design job because I can’t deal with starting a project then having it open for months because of delays. Once I finish the 2 that are open I won’t be taking anymore unless I feel I can knock them out with no issues. I’m trying to focus more on the things that I have going on. This doesn’t mean I can’t take on personal requests, those I have full control over and can get done in less than a week depending on what is asked. So I encourage anyone who needs something done to contact me. It’s just better working for yourself rather than with a company sometimes is what I’m saying.

Hopefully we’ll have the baby blog up tonight. I’m excited but yet I’m not as excited as I think I should be. It just feels so right, like I’ve been here before. I’m not worried about delivery or those first days that the baby comes home. I don’t care about being sleep deprived or if I have a scar, marks, or saggy boobs. Me being pregnant is more relieving to me than anything.

Gold Medal Wine Club Review

My mother has gotten into wine the last 3 years or so. I cannot stand wine, I think it is an acquired taste. When I had the chance to taste test some wines from the Gold Medal Wine Club, I instantly thought of my mother. She would be my guinea pig because had I tasted the stuff, I’d instantly say it was nasty, lol. It took my mother a while to unwrap the wines. They were packaged so nicely that she didn’t want to touch them. I had my mother taste the bottle of Merlot first. She really didn’t like it. She said it was kind of oily, something that my uncle would enjoy. She did however mix half of the Merlot with Beringer White Zinfandel and it tasted fine after the mix. Next she tried the Chardonnay which was fine, she mixed it with Beringer White Zinfandel because she’s used to mixing, but the Chardonnay was fine all by itself.

The wine came with a newsletter which featured facts, recipes, and news about the wine industry, something I’m sure all wine enthusiasts would enjoy. I found the Food For Thought recipe column interesting. I’m always seeing chefs on tv tossing wine in their creations and I’m curious to know what it is about wine that gives certain dishes that *OMPH*.

Christmas is right around the corner but it isn’t too late to get your wine lovers a membership to Gold Medal Wine Club. Choose from Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and International wine clubs. There’s something for every taste bud.

POS Ultrasound Machine Broken

The ultrasound machine is broken. Rescheduled for the 17th. I’m calling elsewhere because this doesn’t make any sense. I cannot wait until AFTER Christmas to be seen by someone. At this rate of people getting sick and machines breaking, I will have to.

I Won An ItzBeen!

I won an ItzBeen Baby Care Timer from the Mom Views Scavenger Hunt Blog Party! I am so excited, I’m definitely going to post a review for the ItzBeen when we start using it. For those who don’t know what an ItzBeen is, it’s a multi-purpose nursery tool that helps new parents remember the basic details of baby care. Greg and I will are really looking forward to playing with this gadget .
