I have seriously been mildly depressed since watching the last episode of Six Feet Under, which has been called the third BEST series finale ever, and it really was. The writers cerainly carried the show's profound, depressing theme through the last episode. I caught the end of the last episode last night and there was a lump in my throat after a mere 30 seconds. Those damned pregnancy hormones.
This morning in Sunday school (we recently joined a young adults class), I sat with a girl who is due next week and we spent some time talking about pregnancy after class. I felt slightly envious that she will meet her daughter in the next week or so and I won't meet my baby for 7 months. It's silly, I know, because she has had to wait 9 months too. I just wish I could skip ahead, you know?
I have realized lately that this blog is truly only a piece of me. There are so many thoughts and aspects of my life I don't blog about, not intentionally, but because by the time I sit down to write once every day or two, it's impossible to recount every moment. But I try to hit the highlights.
With that said-- and I've others do this and I've never really thought to-- is there anything anyone wants to know about me that I haven't said or posted? Any questions? Now you'll hurt my feelings if I think no one wants to know anything about me. :-)
Posted by Hannah at August 28, 2005 01:10 PMDefinitely do NOT wish your pregnancy away!!! Oh my goodness, Hannah, you have SO much to look forward to in these next seven months [and beyond]. But I know what you mean ... when I was pregnant, I was SO excited and anxious to meet our little boy!
Posted by: Lisanne at August 28, 2005 01:28 PMnot sure if i am qualified to say this having been neither pregnant or a mum :) but i say, enjoy the pregnancy. i've heard so many friends tell me how much they miss their pregnancy :) i think the counting down is so very meaningful - we need the time to prepare!
Posted by: stef at August 28, 2005 09:03 PMI completely understand how you're feeling. But pregnancy is an amazing time that we should ENJOY!!! I am getting antsy too. :)
I love the little tidbits you choose to write about it. Although it is definitely a cross-section of who you really are, it's a good, solid representation of who you are at a particular moment. :) Obviously what you write works for me b/c I read your blog every day! Sometimes those little things, like what you've cooked for dinner or something cute your hubby says to you, are the best.
THat said, I think you should write about things you'll want to look back on 10 years from now and smile about. I have a horrible memory so I try to write about my life. The little stuff that may be boring to others but is who I am on that day. THAT is what I want to know about you!!!
:) :) :)
