Strange Dreams and TED Hose

The last few weeks have been full of some rather strange dreams that many books would say are due to the pregnancy. If they are or are not is not what this blog entry is about; it is about the dream I had last night. I will not give you all the details other than to say that it was bouncing between random places that I feel my subconscious either knew about or made up. The part that woke me up with neither a feeling of dread or anxiousness was that in it I was giving birth. It was a lovely birthing room, but the part that stood out in my mind was that there was a huge window that looked out onto a snow covered mountain with springs rolling and splashing down it. I take it that this is my happy place. My happy place that my mind will travel to when in the intense labor pains begin. It is nice to see it already.

Now, onto my TED hose. These are anti-embolism hose that will help the veins and swelling in my legs. Before getting these, the end of the work day was full of pain, throbbing and swelling - thanks to the bad veins genetics in my family. The one thing that I am worried about, call it vain, is that when it is summer in Texas it reaches high 90's to low 100's and I am going to have to wear these hose and slacks or jeans. Yuck, i do not like the sound of that. Then I started into thinking that leggin's are coming back and why can't I try to bring white knee highs back! I could wear them with my black work Capri's or prego denim Capri's...and soon everyone will be wearing white knee highs under there Capri's. Or maybe not - just a thought.

What about pictures of your own cute self my dear? How is the nursery coming along? We're waiting on some hand me down furniture, but the main structures should be done...Nancy and I are doing to do curtains next, and the closet needs some major shelves. What I'd really like to do next is fix up the bathroom. These projects are addictive.
