M is for...

is for Monday's...I hate Monday's, It never feels like the weekends are long enough.  Although this Monday wasn't so bad, maybe it is because I know it is a short week that ends with me flying home to see my friends and family for my baby shower, maybe I got enough sleep for once finally...either way M is for Monday!

  is for Motivation and Master Degrees!  I am starting class...AGAIN, I really need to get and stay motivated, I am tired of taking classes and not finishing them, tired of having to do an appeal form to get back into classes, tired of paying for classes I don't finish.  I just need to get and stay motivated and get it done with, make more Money with my Master's degree and Motivation!!!!
  is for Morons!  This weekend I had carpet guys at my house because I put a warranty request in after noticing some seams in my carpet.  The 2 of the 3 guys that came over did not speak a lick of English, and the other spoke very broken English.  Anyways, they showed up about 2 hours late for their appointment, then stared at the carpet for what seemed like an hour, discussing what I assume would be what they should do, before telling me they didn't think they could fix it but were going to try...by try they made it worse.  The appointment ended 2.5 hours later with 2-4 seams for every 1 seamed that was an issue.  They concluded that they would most likely have to recarpet the ENTIRE house because the issue was they type of carpet that was used.  They would need to talk with their boss and get back to me.   GREAT!!  In addition, while they were attempting to fix it they needed to move some of my furniture, which included a book shelve, one that Michael had screwed to the wall so it wouldn't tip over...you know where this is going right...the dumb ass, I mean Moron, yanked it from the wall leaving a HOLE in my wall!!!
is for Mom!  I cannot say it enough about how much I love and appreciate my Mother!  She is amazing for so many reasons I would never be able to list them all, but to mention a few; She offers support in every possible way, support that no other person on the planet can possibly attempt.  She gives the best advice, not just listens and sides with me, simply because I am her daughter, but the kind of advice that is helpful and productive.  She has that "mother wand" that all mothers have, and still manages to have one that still works it's magic, even after 30 years!  I am more than blessed to have my mother as MY mother.  I know no matter what time of day it is, where in the world either of us are, the subject matter (taboo or not), she is there, always willing to help, listen, support, laugh or even cry for and with me!!!!  Not to mention everything she has done for me and all her help getting me and the house Mason ready.
is for Milk!  Prior to being pregnant Michael and I couldn't finish half a gallon of milk to save our lives.  We had to have it in the house for cooking things like Mac and Cheese but could never manage to use it all before it went bad, now...I can't keep an entire gallon in the house for a week, I have a large glass of chocolate milk every night before I go to bed and on the occasion I will have milk in between my night cap.  I can promise you Michael hasn't suddenly started drinking more milk...this is all me and my pregnant self!
is for Mason! (Duh) I really don't have any updates on the Mason front.  I feel like I might feel him kick or moving around occasionally but I am still not sure.  Everyone says "oh you will know", so I still don't think this is in fact a "kick" from my little Man. 
is for Money!  I will keep this brief, and for the sake of some viewers I will avoid giving away identifiable indicators of whom I might be talking about.  With that said, I hate how money seems to be no object for certain people when they WANT something like hanging out in a bar, playing games or betting, but some how can't find the money for their responsibilities and this some how becomes MY problem!!!!  Nuff said!
  is for Mother-In-Laws!  This goes for both my mom as a "Mother-In-Law" to Michael as well as Beverly as a "Mother-In-Law" to me!  My mom gave Michael 2 tickets to BOTH preseason Cowboy's game, so she is in the running for "Mother-In-Law" of the year award in his book.  And Beverly has not only gone crazy with buying things to help complete Mason's nursery but she also sent us a very warm House Warming card.  That was very sweet!
 is for Missing some old friends!  I will keep this fairly brief too because I feel like I have a lot to say on the subject matter but for nothing more than "it is what it is", I should not go into details.  I have a list of friends that I have been missing.  These are friends that date years back, to old work friends, to my friends that I talk to all the time but don't get to see back home, to friends that seemed to have faded since I don't live the same life now that I am pregnant to even the friends that I do see and talk to regularly.  I MISS YOU!  I miss our friendships that we once had.  Some we aren't "allowed" to be friends, I was kind of hoping my recent circumstance would stifle all irrational fears or issues causing such restrictions, however it seemingly hasn't.  Some it has been geographical distance that causes me to miss you, and for others, there just isn't enough time in the day allowing us to spend more time together.  Bottom line I miss you guys and think about you often!!!
is for Mike!  I love my step dad!  I love hearing him be excited about all things Mason and being a grandpa to Olivia and Mason!  I love that he has been an amazing part of our lives and am super excited they (him and my wonderful mother, refer to above M is for Mom), will be moving closer soon (never soon enough though).  PS. Sorry I forgot to warn you about the TMI part of my last blog/comments.

 and last but not least on my list of Ms for today...
is for Maternity Clothes!  I hate Maternity clothes!  I finally broke down and bought a few things, gritting teeth every step of the way!  I hate that they are expensive yet necessary. I can't wait to have my body back and wear the other 99.99% of my closet worth of clothes!!!

That is all for now :)
