just a regular day
✰ grocery shopping, meal planning [i planned through wednesday! wishful thinking?], and a sunday dinner:
classic lasagna from simply recipes
✰ a satisfying workout
✰ relaxation outside [i kind of wanted to escape to the beach but josh was too nervous i would go into labor 2+ hours away from home!]
[his fears were unfounded]
nary a ‘real’ contraction in sight. however, i really need this to come to a close soon because the picture below represents 100% of my warm-weather-appropriate wardrobe currently. [neither piece is maternity. and i realize i look a little bit ridiculous.]
at 39.9 weeks
due date, shmoo date
i know someone out there will appreciate this [source]
off to the gym –> OB appointment –> work.
something to read
i cleaned out/organized my google reader this weekend! i have to admit my list of mom blogs is exploding rapidly. the mom/fashion hybrids [rockstar diaries, bleubird vintage, dear baby, etc] are particularly intriguing but they also seem to sell a lifestyle that appears dangerously . . . unattainable. some more practical link love:
♥ why clutter is bad for your bottom line from finances your way
♥ i wrote 5 year plan [and you can, too] by simple mom
♥ simple tomato soup from 101 cookbooks. spring/summer makes me gravitate towards heidi swanson [and meaty lasagna, apparently].
