You really put a lot of thought into this didn't you?
Hey aren't we supposed to be cleaning for the baby to come or something...
This is just so much more fun, and it is sooo hot right now.... who wants to move?

[Wild Flowers]

Me too about the zoos. It is so hard to explain to people why we really don't care to meet at zoos. I mean how is your child ever going to learn about animals if they don't see them? There are videos, and pictures online, and I would rather them respect other animals than expect to see them in cages.

Is it hot? Really? Seriously I thought that was just the menopausal hot flashes! It's HOT! That's great news!!

And I just texted dp and told him that I wouldn't be complaining so much about how miserable i am if i didn't feel so guilty about NOT DOING ANYTHING.
