BOY!!! His name is Sheamas...no no I haven't birthed him but that is what his name is. I have missed all of you here. I am not online yet...waiting for Qwest to send me the internet CD for dial up and they have not. So I will order from some other provider so we can converse more.

Just want to thank all of the mamas for the beads and I wear them proudly strung on a necklace. I get loads of compliments!!! I love it. I especially love the quote on yellow paper that reminds me that my contractions are not more powerful than me because they ARE me. i have already hung this up in my bathroom for when labor begins.

Sheamas is head down, real deep in there which is great...on my right side and posterior so i'm working on getting him to get anterior...i am at the library and he must have just done something as i was standing browsing books and omg, all of a sudden it was like...i dunno but something was happening in there...maybe he turned or something huge like that? i felt dizzy and overcome...like i couldn't move. like i had to poop. i did go poop once i could move but it was powerful, whatever occurred. it wasn't a ctx...hmmm. we'll see when midwife comes to our home for the home visit next week.

we moved to our new house around 8/1 and am settling in although we may now lose it as we can't seem to get a refi loan to get out of the construction loan...i'm making the most of it...claiming the space that 'is' right NOW. megh and i are doing great. tom and i are doing good. much better than before for sure... Sheamas is very active in utero and so far, so good. i love my midwives and am exctied about my VBAC at home. like my back up doctor and i just chose a doula too. so i am SET to go! well i'm going to now order a dial up CD to get online to chat w/ you soon...just wanted to say HUGS and i think of this group probably every day.
love love and more love to all of you,
Lis aka chrysalis in MN

i'm ok despite being so darn tired most of the time...

we got a new black kitten that tom's brother apparently thru out of a moving truck cuz it pooped on him or something, right out onto their father's property. even there, the kitty wasn't being fed kitty food, just milk and scraps and had worms...now she is thriving and eating iams kitten food and is dewormed. she is not scrawny anymore and her coat is so soft and shiny. and no runs...has solid poops now. i'm proud of myself if i do say so. she is a very happy kitty. every day she has a new name from meghan. today it is buttercup. i think tom's father is insulted or something by my having the kitty now (tom took her to us...pretty sweet!) and started shouting at me after telling me he wouldn't be coming into our house if the cat is inside. he says he is allergic to it. lol i said really...if you are allergic to her, then you'd be to all of ours...he said no its a certain kind of cat...lol i said well they are all domestic short hairs so it'd be the same reaction...he was yelling and insisting its a certain kind of cat and so forth (he is one of the most bullying and ignorant pigs i've ever known...) and finally i just said, DO NOT YELL AT ME ALBERT. I WILL NOT TOLERATE IT. and you know what his mr. bully answer was i suppose...that's right 'well then don't ARGUE with me'. i wanted to say oh is THAT how it goes in YOUR little mind dude? NOT gonna happen. lol i'm a boat rocker mamas. yes i am. anyway the pig hasn't been by since so that is very pleasant i might add.

what else...well i posted a few things about me and tom in some posts...i am very annoyed w/ how he thinks re. earning a living for us. its hard on me as i'm dependent on him as is megh my dd. he is hell bent on doing this real estate investing and we are in an area that isn't exactly metro or thriving for this sort of thing. his logic is really screwed and it is irritating cuz he insists it isn't...that i am lacking faith and optimistim. really i said...we've lived off loans mostly for the past 18 mos. since i've been with him and he rarely does his masonry work (nor does he actively pursue new jobs...) and now we can't get loans as his income shows that its mostly been from loans. i think i'm going to go to al-anon meetings as he IS an alcoholic...may be recovered for 10 years but still has very alcoholic mindset. its annoying.

i'd like a bigger mattress as the queen is now too small for all of us (we co-sleep) plus a new baby to come...i'm frustrated with being so limited from his b.s. re. finances.

megh and i drive about 45 mins. each week to see friends we enjoy in a homeschooling group. i love the moms and she loves the kids (as do i...). they all get along so nice...all different ages...so that is a joy for us...

well megh wants to play noggin. so i am going to run for now. i'll be in touch.
love,
lis
