Sweet relief

Good news – I passed my test de sugar yesterday! It wasn’t as bad as everybody says it is. Chugging the sugar drink as fast as possible makes it easier to get down, and I was a big girl and didn’t cry when they pricked 4 of my fingers. I sat in the waiting room for about 3.5 hours, but I did get to read.

Gunter and I celebrated passing the test with a Wendy’s Frosty. After running errands, we got on some housework yesterday afternoon. Gunter hung (hanged, Mrs. Grammar Nazi?) curtains, lowered the water heater temperature, folded clothes and cleaned the kitchen. I got rid of the wall o’ clothes piled in our bedroom (the ones I can’t wear either because it’s too hot, I’m too with-child, or both), cooked spaghetti and washed clothes. Then, he made me sit down because my back hurt a little. I’m used to sitting at a desk all day…not so much moving.

Speaking of moving, if you’re looking to inherit any of our junk prized possessions, now is a good time to stop by the Christian mission, while Gunter is progressing on clearing out the baby’s room. Or, just make it easy on us – stop by the house and take whatever you want. Save us a trip and the decision of whether to keep stuff or not.

Yep, getting rid of stuff so we can get much more important stuff. I’ve been working on our registries a little along. See what you think. Suggestions? I doubt most of this stuff is necessary to raise a baby, but I wanted people to have a lot to choose from. Of course, I haven't put diapers or clothes on there because I figured people would just know I needed that sort of stuff.

Target

Walmart

By the way, have you noticed that Walmart has deleted the hyphen from the company name? It used to be Wal-Mart. My boss, a self-proclaimed word nerd, pointed that out.
