what to say?.. My posts here have sure been slacking. I really do have a lot of sponging going on, but just not the focus to write about it, which is bad. My life is going on as usual and I'm feeling as if I'll be pregnant for longer than anticipated. Just impatience? We'll see. Both Mike and I have been inundated with advice on how to stimulate labor, everything from walking to shopping to sex. And we've done a little bit of everything. I am convinced, however, that nothing we do will make it happen before it's supposed to. She'll come into this world exactly how she's planned to and I'm ok with that. I'm just anxious to meet her, see what she looks like and hold her.

The weeks have been flying by and I'll get off the pregnancy subject already! Let's see. My Christmas shopping is done, presents wrapped and they were under the tree until Truman the Visla dog decided to unwrap one. Now they are placed neatly in the guest room. The stockings are hung on the fireplace. I've never had that before. Such a nice thing. Our house and our neighbor's were mentioned in the Saturday paper as one of the "houses to see" on your tour of christmas lights this year. I'm so proud. They really do look great, you should drive by and see them.

I finished my Clinical Assessment class last week, finally handing in my paper on Couple Assessment tools in therapy. It was an interesting paper, but I have to admit my heart and mind wasn't fully in it at this point in my life. Funny how I had a few other things on my mind, so much else to think about and be excited about.

So as you can tell by this terribly-written post, I'm not fully inspired to write these days. But in a nutshell, this is pretty much it. I'll keep trying...
