I'M NOT READY!!!!!

Yup...I'm STILL not packed for the hospital.  Ok, I'm sorta packed.  Well...Does having stuff in piles count?  *lol*  I'm at that stage, and I've been there ALL.  DAMN.  DAY.

At least I'm further along than A & R.  They haven't even started yet!  And I've been trying to get her to start packing for over 2 hrs.!!!!!  I just yelled up to her again.  Ugh...

I sent my twin sis a text earlier, telling her I'm a little on the "lost" side and I didn't know why.  I'd look at my list and go, "Nope, can't pack that yet, or that, or that, or that, or that...Hell, I give up."  Half the stuff on the list can't be packed till tomorrow or later tonight.  The other 1/2 is sitting on my bed or here next to me at the dining table.  Like I said, I'm so "lost" right now.

I was so lost earlier this afternoon that I cussed at my twin sis over text messaging.  "O.O"  I rarely do that.  She's graciously lending us her infant carrier.  She took it apart and washed the fabric and dried it.  But LEFT it apart.  I had to figure out how to put the damn thing together again - WITHOUT the destructions!!!!!  Ticked me off to no end.  I *think* I got it all figured out, and I apologized to her, telling her my "lost" side took over for a bit.  It was true, but I don't think she believed me.  Poor J...

While getting stuff from the bathroom to pack, I accidentally called my oldest sister.  Whoops!  I quickly managed to hang up with full hands, but it was too late and the call had been placed.  Don't think she answered, though.  She called a bit ago, asking about my call.  My only response was, "Sorry!  Fat Finger Syndrome!"  She laughed about it, and made sure the C-section was still on for tomorrow morning.  Yup, it is.

My oldest brother is coming for a few days.  He'll be here in a couple of hours or so.  He wants to be here for K's birth.  He missed R's, but was there for L's.  I'm glad he'll be here.  Now we have a house sitter.  *lol*  He and R are going to the hospital with us tomorrow morning, and he or A will take her to a friend's house later on.  She'll be staying with her friend until Wednesday, but he's gonna pick her up before going to visit us at the hospital on Tuesday, then take her back to her friend's house.  Confusing?  Probably.  Sorry about that.

(I have never minded that family missed R's birth.  I still don't.  But I understand when they tell me they feel guilty about it.  Hey, at least they've been there for her for the past 9 yrs.!  That's all that matters to me.)

My MIL will be here Thursday afternoon.  Crap.  My house is SO not presentable...  There are messes EVERYWHERE!  Oh, well.  It's hard to do anything right now, this kid likes to make me uncomfortable.

I guess that's it for today.  Gotta get to packing - again.  Then I'm gonna relax in front of the TV for the rest of the night.  Well, until it's R's shower time.  And I have to yell up to her again about the packing...There, done.

The next time you hear from me, K will be home!  Maybe I'll be able to post pics of her and R together...
