Welp, Nathan had only one accident today. He's doing pretty darn good at this potty thing if you ask me. Not only that but he went to bed quietly and without a fight! I might just do a little jig on that note!

 ::jigs::

Work was exciting today. I have a huge four week training coming up. I get to travel to North Carolina for it and stay in a hotel for a week! Today I went hotel shopping to decide where I wanted to stay. Obviously, I want to stay at the expensive one with room service. My boss probably has other ideas. We shall see ;) It's only across the street from the training center so I might just be able to justify it as I won't be needing a rental car to get back and forth. Brilliant! I'm still sure he's going to make me go with the cheaper option.

On another note I was thinkin' I was pregnant but I'm not. I was late. Not by much but I was also having very weird symptoms. My period has been completely out of wack lately ::see last 6 months:: and I'm starting that might just be my new normal. Mike and I were talking about the more children thing again and he's right. We just don't have the money right now. I'm not sure we ever will...or at least not until Nathan is in school. Then they would be so far apart. Ugh. Too much to worry about right now.

My doctor's appointment just made me mad. I have fibromyalgia. I still might have Lupes but nothing is conclusive. They did more tests and I haven't heard anything so I'm thinking they were fine. They also did xrays on my hands because they have been hurting so bad. They're thinking it might be degenerative arthritis. I asked about a certain medication and she didn't want to prescribe it. She wants me to get it from my family practitioner. WTF?? She's supposed to be the specialist!

Again, they don't know. They never seem to know. I hate that.

I'm exhausted. I'm going to watch the new LA Ink and get to bed. I'm hoping Mike will get home before I hit the sack...just so I can see him today... but he is trying to catch up at work. I really detest the people he works with sometimes. They don't do their job so he gets screwed. Gah.

Alright! On that note...bedtime. 

I never thought I'd be one of those moms who go googly eyed when their kid reaches a cornerstone or just does something cool. However, here I sit blogging, day after day, about the cool things my kid does. I guess it's just part of that motherly pride that you really don't understand until you have kids.

Today, Nathan completely deserves my googlyness. He went all day at daycare in big boy underwear without having one accident. Pretty impressive for his first day! He did come home and have one here. He was so upset that he peed in his big boy underwear but I told him it was just fine and he had done a good job. He still kept crying. Daddy assured him he was still a big boy. Poor thing.

He's just getting so big. We're already talking about preschool and I well up with tears. I think we're going to wait until he's 4 1/2 but he's at that weird  age where he's either going to be old for his class or very young. It's pretty overwhelming to think about.

Well, I'm showered and ready to cuddle on the couch with a blanket and a crochet hook. I had quite the day with a crappy doctor's appointment (details tomorrow) and then a crazy day of work. I'm ready for some time to zone out before I go to bed.

I have lacked anyting to blog about in the last three days. I think I'm only writing this time to spare myself from boredom.

I've been tracking what I eat everyday but today has been the hardest day so far. I just want to gorge. Go into the kitchen and eat everything in sight. I've done alright so far but that doesn't mean I don't want to just explode and eat everything. That's just what happens when I'm bored I guess. Hope I can keep up the will power. This will not be easy once I get to Mike's parents this afternoon. They never have a healthy thing to eat in the place.

We're trying to potty train Nathan. Monday we start going with the big boy undies and see how that all works out. I'm sure it will double my laundry load at first. He's a smart kid though, hopefully it wont be long. Diapers went up ANOTHER 3 dollars. Insane.

I spent most of my morning on You Tube. I have never really looked around but some of the stuff is funny. It made for an easy hour.  This one was my favorite of the day.

I don't do well without coffee either.
