Friday

Today is Friday... I do not have anything to do on Fridays. In theory, I could sleep all day if I wanted to. What time was I up and out of bed this morning... 6:30 am! My mind truly wants to sleep... but my body says UP UP UP! Not with great energy... just to be a pain. Then when I am up... there is not a speck of motivation running through my veins.

Luckily, the next town over is having their big community wide yard sale day. So I ventured out this morning and found a great deal on a bouncer seat. $8. And it has this mesh enclosure that zips up... which will be great this summer. We can take it with us to concerts in the park or whatever outdoor outing we might find ourselves attending without having to worry about bugs or mosquitos. I think it was a good find.

Oh but then... Pregnancy brain struck. After my yard sale shopping I had to take the Honda in to the garage for a repair on a recalled part. My appointment was at 10:30. At 10:25 I am driving down the road in Saginaw (Midland does not have a Honda garage.) and I start to think.... "Hmm. Something doesn't seem right." OH crap! The Honda garage is in Bay City not Saginaw... I'm in the wrong town! Needless to say I had to call and reschedule the appointment. The girl from the service department that I spoke with was also pregnant... so she totally got it.

And in happy, happy news... our neighbors... you know the ones who were arrested after a drug bust... are gone! We figured they'd be out as soon as the money dried up. Then we suspected they (well not 'they' because they are still in jail... but someone) were moving out after seeing a few car loads leave full of boxes. Now... I think it is safe to assume they are definitely out because it appears as though the crew is in to clean and repair the place in preparation for new tenants. So please say a prayer that we get good neighbors in next door. If not... the nursery will be moved into our bedroom. I can't bring myself to allow my baby's bedroom to share a wall with shady people.

This weekend should be pretty nice. Nathan has his three day weekend and we are saying goodbye to John and Ryan with a barbecue. We also have a new church we might try out. Its not that there is anything wrong with the church we have been attending... it was good enough when we didn't know how much longer we'd be here. But now that we are feeling like we'll be here longer... we really want to find the right fit. We want to find a smaller, more intimate community. We'll see. We're just going to keep praying that God leads us to the right place.
