New allergy.

It looks like I’m allergic to shrimp. I was putting frozen shrimp into bags yesterday at Burger King, and not twenty minutes later my face and neck exploded with this horrible looking rash that consisted of dark pink and purple dots. Blah. This happened a few weeks ago too, and at the time I couldn’t figure out what did it. Now I know. Hmm. Looks like I better not eat any shrimp, since just handling it made my face break out.

Anyway. I work from 11:30am-7:00pm. See ya!

Oopsies!

Silly Jenn forgot to renew :kitty: kiss-my-kitty.com…again! :dammit: Yes, I did this last year too. Blah. One of these years I’ll learn. Thank goodness for domain registrars holding expired domains for a month so that the original owner can get it renewed! :whew: Otherwise, a domain squatter would have probably snatched :kitty: k-m-k.com up, and I would have been very upset. :cry:

Anyway. I’ve spent the past week working my butt off (30 hours). Ditto for the week before (35 hours). It’s recently dawned on me (after talking to my mother) that I’m experiencing Braxton Hicks contractions. :boggled: While they’re normal to get every now and then, the fact that I’m experiencing them only at work (after being on my feet for a while, running around, etc.) is a bit worrisome. :ack: I’m going to mention it to the OBGYN on Monday (my appointment is at 11:00am) and see what he thinks.

Daniel and I did go and see the trailer last Monday morning, and applied for a loan through the realtor’s bank as well as our bank. Surprise surprise, we were turned down. We submitted with a co-signer, but the realtor isn’t sure if we’ll be approved because while my dad has good credit, his monthly income is only around $880 and the bank may not think that’s enough. Daniel is going to ask his aunt and his dad, so, we’ll see. In the meantime I’ve written down some ads and made some calls regarding apartments. We need to have a place of our own as soon as possible. It’s just that a trailer, especially one we’d be paying on to own, would be so much better than paying the same amount or more (the trailer would have been $500/month – $250 lot rent, $250 mortgage) for just renting. But, we’ll see. I’m praying that we’ll get the trailer, but I have this sinking feeling that we won’t. :blue:
Speaking of Daniel, since his family has been away for the week we’ve spent a few nights together. :couple: Believe it or not, no sex! We’ve just been cuddling, snacking on pizza and the like, and watching lots of TV and movies. :filmstrip: I think the reason we haven’t bothered with sex is because we can always sneak that in somewhere. It’s harder for us to get time alone without having to go out to a movie theater or restaurant.

Alyssa has shifted since last night. :stork-girl: The upper part of my belly sticks out more than my lower, and it feels really solid. Hmm. It’s either her head or her back/butt. Even Daniel remarked that my stomach was sticking out differently today. :haha: Silly girl. Oh well, enjoy the movement while you can! In a month or two there won’t be room. ;)

Ack.

Just to let everybody know, I probably won’t be online at all until sometime tomorrow afternoon, but more likely tomorrow night after I’m done work. I’ll get to emails then!

I am trying very, very hard not to get excited, but: Daniel and I are going to look at a trailer on Monday morning at 10:30am! It’s here in the same development where my mom’s trailer is, but on the other side in the more hilly and heavily wooded development, up the hill from my grandmother’s trailer. It’s a three bedroom, one and a half bathroom trailer for only $14,900! I called the realtor yesterday to find out more about it, and to set up an appointment. We’re really excited, and praying we’d get approved for financing. Logically, I don’t see why not: my mother got approved for this trailer, which was over $60,000, and her credit is absolute shit. Daniel’s credit is…iffy… and mine is good except for two bounced checks I have to pay off at Wal-Mart. So perhaps if we get financing jointly, or if worse comes to worse, with Daniel’s grandmother co-signing. So, we’ll see! For now I’m trying to stay calm about it, just in case things don’t work out.

I wound up not going into work this morning. :( The boys were up and down all morning and then my mother was in a raging mood because of not being able to sleep (she has chronic sleep problems), so I just got back up at 7:00am to sit up with them and give them breakfast. I didn’t go to sleep until around 8:30am, and I figured I’d get back up at 10:30 and get ready for work, but when I did I was exhausted. But, it’s okay, because Daniel just called me a half an hour ago: two closers called off tonight, so they really, REALLY need me. :haha: Looks like I’ll be making up those hours and then some! Originally there were only three closers, plus me coming in at 8:00. We’re going to get slaughtered tonight if it’s only one closer, me and Daniel. And on a Saturday night. God help us. :shock:

I’ve been having more baby and breastfeeding dreams. :stork-girl: Daniel is getting excited now too, especially last night after seeing the baby things Norma brought over. Heh, speaking of breasts, for those of you who have been/are pregnant, when did your breasts first start leaking? Can you believe mine have been leaking since May? It kicked in when I wasn’t quite four months pregnant! Now it’s to the point where any kind of stimulation brings forth actual milk – just ask Daniel; he’d know all about it! :blush: Oh well, it’s kind of neat.

Anyway, time to go! Bye!
