2013 Day Five

Tuesday, November 5, 2013
Tell us about your writing space. Where do you write your blog posts?

I would say that 99% of my posts are written right here, at my kitchen table.  Sadly, it's usually a cluttered mess.  If I wasn't afraid that the producers of Hoarders would be banging on my door, I would show you a picture.

Twenty years ago, at this exact moment, I was getting settled into a hospital bed.  I was LIVID because my doctor lied to me to get me to come to the hospital.  I was told I would be able to walk around until my labor progressed.  Instead, I was immediately stripped down, given an oh-so-attractive hospital gown, jabbed with an IV needle, thrown on a bed, given an internal exam by the nurse (causing my water bag to rupture and flood the bed!) and then told I had to stay in bed because she also attached a monitor to the baby's scalp.  Oh, yeah, and that also meant I had to be catheterized, since I wasn't allowed to get off the freakin' bed.  Good times, good times....  And those were just the highlights!!

Eesh, ok, that's all the thought I want to give to that right now.  I'd rather focus on the end result....

This was taken the same day as the picture I posted yesterday.  Like I said, Stud was a couple months old here.  I think I was still on maternity leave, which would make him around 2 months?  And, yes, that's a cloth diaper. =)  UGH!  He was such a beautiful baby!!!
