Weekend Update

Sorry, couldn't come up with a more creative title, and I just wanted to make sure I kept my weekday blogging promise...

First off, I feel like I'm getting huger by the day - and especially over this past weekend (huger looks ridiculous when it's written, just as I fear my belly will look ridiculous by the time this pregnancy is full term).

Also, the wee human inside is VERY active now. I'm pretty sure Mr. Daybyday could feel the kicks now if only wee one would be active on command. But I guess I'll just have to enjoy the entertainment by myself for a while longer. Today while at work there were a couple of kicks that were especially strong that they made me giggle out loud (they were also consecutive).

Anyway, so back to this weekend... I pretty much spent the entire weekend (aside from eating and watching movies with Mr. Daybyday) rearranging and reorganizing our stuff. Namely sorting through and cleaning out a big closet so that we could finish the migration from what used to be our small bedroom (which will be the wee one's room) into the larger master bedroom (which used to be just our big office and room of junk/storage). Maybe once the rooms are finished I'll be brave enough to post some before and after pictures (I'm quite proud of the big closet - it was a disaster before - I blame Mr. Daybyday).

Anyway, all that shuffling around of stuff made me feel like a degu (because I've had pet degus before) - just shifting around wood chips and toys in a cage until they were just so. Goodness how my little degu must have gone crazy every time I cleaned her cage and disturbed her order!

Someday I should post about my degu - she was so amazing, and I miss her. She had such personality.

Here is a picture of her, in her sand bath bowl.



I was also going to talk about how my postdoc advisor always sets up tentative meeting times with me, and then never actually has time to meet with me. But I'd rather leave this post on a more pleasant note (like the cuteness of my dear little degu friend) - so the advisor rant will wait for another day.
