The other day, I was in an elevator at work when a patient asked me when I was due.
Me: "In about two weeks." (July 28th, in case anyone forgot).
Patient: "I hope you don't give birth to a moose!"
Me: "Uh, yeah, I hope not."
Patient: "My niece just had a baby, and it was over eight pounds!"
Me: "Well, I was 9 pounds, 8 ounces when I was born."
Patient: looks me up and down and gestures with her finger, "Yeah, but you look like your body could handle it!"
Me: "Maybe, we'll see!" and I got off the elevator, thank goodness.
I'm not all offended, because it's too much effort, but I'm kind of thinking that somehow, telling me I could handle giving birth to a moose is a bit of an insult. Are you calling me fat?

I'm not nesting, just making messes.
Today, I...
I think it's time to sit down for a while.
- Took Kyler to work
- Went grocery shopping
- Ran the dishwasher
- Made two pans of enchiladas
- Made two pans of lasagna
- Made the apparently now-traditional Canada Day "trifle"
- Cleaned the kitchen
- Ran the dishwasher (again)
- Took out the trash
I think it's time to sit down for a while.
