Changes

There may be a big change in our lives coming soon...I will know by the end of this week. I can't tell you yet what it is because Kadin would kill me if I did.

It's a change I said I wanted but now that it's knocking on my front door, I'm flooded with tears and can't seem to get off the couch or put on makeup or a decent outfit.

Kadin told me yesterday that I looked like I just rolled out of bed. I had. He said you never leave the house like this. Like what? I had makeup on--just no lipstick. My mom always told me I looked much better with lipstick. And I was wearing sweats. What's wrong with wearing sweats all day on a rainy Sunday?

But once I arrived at the bookstore, a man who I've never met congratulated me on my pregnancy and asked how far along I was. "Seven, eight months?" he said. "Six," I told him.

I waddled home feeling insecure on too many levels.

Ok. A. You do look good with lipstick. B. Change is daunting but can be the best thing you ever expected and then didn't want. C. Yesterday was Monday, right?:) and D. I'm not sure I trust a man to guess how pregnant anybody is....
Hang tough sister.

I'm guessing a move? Can't think of what else it would be.
And yeah, what do guys know about guessing how far along a pg woman is? Nothing. Don't listen to him.
