It's weekly from here out

I'm speaking of doctor visits, of course.

I went to see the doc today. Blood pressure was good -- 110/72. Everything else, good.

I think it finally hit me today. We're having a baby, and soon. Possibly in 15 days, or no more than 23. It's either going to be 2 Sept or 9 Sept. Oh my god! 2 or 3 weeks until baby?! I have so much to do.

The nesting urge has popped up again. I cleaned our bedroom and the kids' room last night. And not just "let's pick up a few things" but the kind of clean where everything has to be just right. The bedside tables got cleaned, the desk, the dresser, the TV, the bed was made with newly-washed sheets. And it's like I can't stop myself. Must clean. At least it hasn't gotten to the point I reached when I was pregnant with Enzo when I was literally standing on top of the bed vacuuming the mattress and box springs. Didn't even bother to take the vacuum apart and use the attachments. Just went at it.

And while I'm on the topic of nesting/cleaning...I'm borrowing my sister's industrial/commercial carpet cleaner to freshen up the carpet in the living room. It was once beige. It's filthy. I guess 3 years of Enzo will do that.
