An Accidental Attitude.

Is there such a thing, you say? I don't think so! But that's besides the point. Or is it? *Sigh* Really, there're just two things I want to say. I've had a MAJOR attitude problem lately, and I fell down the stairs today....which hasn't helped my attitude problem! Seriously though, I don't know if it's the third trimester yuckies settling in, or if there's something deeper going on. Whatever it is, I'm ready to get to the bottom of it...and soon before I go insane. I liked when things didn't bother me as easily as they seem to now. Or when the mere sight of my husband didn't make me want to scream sometimes :-) Or the lack of patience I've had with little Gabe who has seemed set on a course to drive me crazy with his temper tantrums lately. I'm willing to bet it's the third-trimest yuckies.....shoot. I've been preggo before (big surprise) and am feeling vaguely familiar :) It really is a challenge to exercise the Fruit of the Spirit when you're pregnant!! AND....I fell down the stairs today and bashed my tailbone and my REALLY sensitive elbow (from five years ago when I fell in that water fall I told you about....it STILL hurts to this day when I bump it...wierd, huh? It's a nice reminder though...) Anywho, I am VERY sore :( And thought I perhaps broke/bruised it, but it happened this morning, and I've been able to get around slowly so I think I'm okay. Definitely wasn't fun. I was just about ready to walk out the door with Gabe. We were going to spend the day together walking around the mall, and going to the library. I had a half cup of coffee in one hand and his clothes in the other and before I knew it the coffee was all over me, all over my newly cleaned carpets, all over the wall and who knows where else. I wanted to bawl like a baby it hurt so bad, but poor Gabe was REALLY concerned...so I braved it as best I could and tried to explain to him that mommy had a boo-boo, but my resolve didn't last too long before I burst into tears. Thankfully I was able to get to the couch to rest and Gabe was content with staying home most of the day and reading books on the couch! We were able to get in the pool for a bit tonight which helped my sore you-know-what feel better :) I'm just thankful that things seem to be okay...I fractured part of my tailbone about five years ago when I fell in that water fall I told you about and really hurt it again giving birth to Gabe so it's really not in good shape. So praise the Lord that it seems to be okay...now is NOT a good time for that to happen.

And please keep Gabriel in your prayers. His surgery is this Thursday, but again he has a nasty cough that he can't seem to loose, and if it isn't gone by Wednesday night then there will be no surgery....again.

So that's my story in a nutshell. I had an accident and I have an attitude. Story of my life sometimes :)

haha....I had to laugh at the attitude in pregnancy thing....mine STINKS when I'm preggo! Sorry about the fall, though. That's a bummer (no pun intended). I broke my tailbone when I was 7 and had major problems with it with both deliveries. It was worse with Jadon, though, because he was posterior. Hopefully this birth will go well for you!!


Now.....about those preggo pictures.....

aww, poor Jess! I understand the atiude thing, mine is coming out as tears! I cry over nothing now and get really upset for no reason. The poor girls that work with me, I feel like I'm always apologizing to them!

I'll be praying for Gabe, keep us updated! And I hope your tailbone gets better quick
