S and I are slowly getting our marital feet back under our selves. Its been a long week in that regard. We watched THE OFFICE last night together after Will went down, which is unheard of recently in our routine, but a step towards some more regular together-time. We have date night this Saturday, which will be another chance to be alone together.I had MOPS last night, which was fine. Will did well in the nursery, which I was thankful for since he wasnt super impressed with it th...

Again, edited from an email to Stephie:We had a conversation of sorts today that involved some exchange of facts. He indicated he was ready to talk if I was. I said I could talk about some things and not about others yet. I won't say that this was much more than a more rational, less angry exchange of positions. It was hardly a "joy comes in the morning" exchange.

My heart is breaking in a hundred different places.
Edited from an email to my sister: "I'm freaking out a ...

Ugh. I keep telling myself to ignore it, but its getting difficult. The heartburn alone is non-stop.Will is in the bathtub right now, and I have the lap top in the bathroom with us. He always requests a "baf" after going to the park. He says, "Baf. Make bubbuls." When I come i...

I have that nauseous feeling you get when you are up too early but couldnt go back to sleep even if you tried.During this last stretch of pregnancy with Will I remember that my anxiety levels ratcheted up and I lost some (okay, all) ability to manage stress successfully. Im certainly experiencing that now. Mostly work-related. Actually, all work-related. As unpopular a position as this is for me - I think my only focus can be just gutting it out. There is little constructive I can do ...
