So, yesterday I wrote up this whole post about how I’m in a funk.
Nothing specific, just grumpy and annoyed.
I feel like every time I turn around I get bad news or at the very least “coulda been better” news.
And I’m tired.
Not sleepy tired.
Just mamas-worn-out-and-needs-a-day-at-the-spa tired.
And the bills from Jilly’s extravaganza have started trickling in.
And that’s just annoying.
But I didn’t publish because I thought:
“Jeannett, no one wants to read about your whining nonsense.”
So, I decided to go to Home Depot for some paint instead.
As I stood chatting with a woman about the different hues of white, she suddenly looks over and says:
“Is this your first baby?”
::blink blink::
“When are you due?”
“Um…”
“Oh! Are you not pregnant! I’m sorry!”
“Nope, not pregnant.”
Cool.
Perfect.
Just what I needed.
I will say that coming home to a surprise package from sweet Lisa did make me feel better.
Still fat, but better.
Thank you friend for making my day a little brighter!
You can get your own birdie necklace here.
And think of my non-pregnant self every time you wear it.
Got any liposuction tools in your kit?
Mail ’em over!
Only one day left to enter to win a shop credit to The Pleated Poppy!!!

Truly.

Can you help us get there???
Please?
YAY!

But you’re so skinny!! Whenever I see you at church you look a little bit tinier. I”m not just making that up. You look great. Period. Not “you look great for having 3 children” not “you look great for having twins”. You just look great!
Nice!!!! My son told told his little sister last night ( after a day from hell) that there was no Santa Claus. He said that he thought it was me because I was fat enough.
Oh Jeannett… you made me laugh. A worker in GAP pointed me to the maternity section. Granted it was a couple months after I gave birth to Bella, but still. Nice. I was actually going to GAP to get some clothes that FIT! :-) Hope your day is better…

Is it wrong to laugh?! I can only imagine the look on your face when she asked that, and I don’t even know you! I just know what MY face would look like.
I sure hope your day gets better. One thing that I love is random unexpected gifts in the mail! I received one from my bestie on Monday and it made my day! :)

I was asked when I was due while I was in the middle of teaching a step class……I was about 9mo postpartum. I about died, but made a joke instead. What’s a girl to do?
