I had coffee, so I'm nice and perky now. I just feel so old some days with my routine. e_e

What's your routine?

I actually also woke up at about 3:30 feeling wide awake. No way I'd get up then, though. XD

Usually I wake up, have happy grin time with the baby, then set her on her play mat while I get coffee and go to the bathroom. :XD It's just so dull, but I love it.

I wish the weather weren't so crappy. I want to go do something, like a walk or whatnot.

Doesn't sound dull to me.

Yeah, weather is horrible though. I want to wear my heavy coat because it's in the 30s, but it's raining and my heavy coat isn't the right material for rain.

It's not cold enough here yet (for me anyway) to wear my heavy coat, but my windbreaker isn't enough for this weather either.

I hear it's supposed to be better the day we go to Bangor. I cannot WAIT. :XD

It's my heavy coat or my leather jacket, and I'm just so much happier wearing my heavy coat.

I think I remember it, unless you got a new one. Is it the long black/grey wool-type coat?

Morning ladies. :)

The weather here has been kinda chilly too. We had our first snow the other day...it didn't stick of course, but it was depressing as hell.

I'm looking forward to getting this winter over with, and it hasn't really even started yet. :XD

I feel like I've been slapped around in circles. If I didn't know better, I'd have to say our cable repairman is my brother. It's really not a stretch either since I know I have siblings scattered everywhere during my father's wild days.

o_o

That...was a bit random!

My dad has been around the block too. He's on his third marriage with my mom. No other kids though, thankfully. He has a stepdaughter from a previous marriage though that he still spends time with.

It was random, but I'm that discombobulated. Seriously. o_o He even has my brother's mannerisms and soft spoken-ness.

I don't even know how many siblings I have scattered. xD They were all affair children. My brother is exactly two years and one day older than me, and my parents didn't divorce until I was four. :angel:

Who knows....It's strange I've moved to different states and could swear up and down I met someone before as I'd bump into someone who looked and even acted like previous friend that it was kinda spooky. I think there's just not that many variations on 'normal' and eventually it's gonna happen.

I consider myself against the grain though.... :XD

Did I tell you about the girl that works in the hospital 30 miles away that several of my friends have run into going, "I didn't know you were a nurse, Kristina." :XD

There's someone in the city 60 miles from here that looks exactly like my sister, too.

Like you say, eventually it's gotta happen... but I do think these are siblings as they're so close in proximity to here. If I were in, say... Alabama I'd be less inclined to be all "OMG!"

HAHA.

You know in England I use to have people come up to me and say OMG AUNT SARAH! I mean it happened in two different occasions it kinda freaked me. As soon as I'd turn around and say something though they were like oh I'm so sorry.

Never had it happen anywhere else though. :XD

That's awesome. :XD All the way in England..

Yah I know. I KNOOOOW my dad never made it outside of North America, so that HAS to be a coincidence....:XD

Same for my mom, too...but it's kinda funny as the running joke in the family is I'm the mailman's daughter. I really look nothing like either one of my parents. My husband even says so too. (In fact HE'S the one who kinda pointed it out...)

*pops in*

Hello everyone~! :'D <3<3

Chi, I don't know if you saw my message in your thread, but I wanted to again say thank you for your kind donation during my stay there. :'> Just reiterating it in case you didn't see it or something due to the volume of people in there. xDD;;

@Ry
Aww, no problem. Thanks for coming to the thread. ^-^ I had a good time.

@Izumi
I don't look like either of mine, but I know the bulk of my looks come from Dad because my half-sister and I share a lot. >>

Huzzah... the baby's taking a nap! She's been fighting it for an hour, now she's plopped on my chest, completely zonked. Still might only last a few minutes, but still.

Wooo! Who knows. Little stinker may snap out of it. Babies seem to be pretty random.

Any plans for today, Chi? I have 8 hours of training today, per usual. I also have some math to finish up and dishes and dinner to fit in. Not anything real exciting but I'll be on my toes.

I also heard you're closing down your charity? :'< Such a shame, but your reasons are very valid indeed, I think. ^^

Btw, I'm again late on the news, but congratulations on your baby girl~! :'D <3<3
I already congratulated Kin when I saw him in your Halloween hangout thread, but I thought I'd say the same to you anyway. Especially since I'm so late on the news, haha. XP

Chi: I've always just kind of assumed that everyone in your area was related to you. That's why you had to go to another state to find someone to marry.

Also, I think you're thinking about the right coat, but it's tan colored.

@Izumi
I have some research I really need to do for my final project. The project is due in December but he's wanted us to get our articles finalized ahead of time. Besides that I at least need to get my laundry put away. Either Kin or I will do the dishes later today, as the kitchen is quite a mess.....

I figure so long as we can get the place picked up before Wednesday, all is well. We're heading out of town then as my birthday is Thursday. I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am. I'm curious how the baby will react to the pool. XDD

@Ry
Yeah, with the baby I just don't have the time or focus to give it the attention it needs, but I'll still be here. :3
Thank you. XDDD She's a doll.

@Cami
That seems about right. It seems I'm at least distantly related to everyone. e_e; I needed fresh blood.
Man, I could have sworn it was dark.. odd!

Maybe it is a different coat. I'm not sure which one it would be, if so, though. XD

Come to think of it... When have I ever visited you that it was cold enough for a winter coat?

Oh and Chi if you ever find yourself drained....I just found out the wonders of taking B vitamins and I tell you what that gives you some major pep to the step. I've usually felt pretty drained, though, so maybe a vitamin deficiency is my problem more so than depression. I've kinda gone through short bursts of feeling down lately, but I think that's all to do with the stress going on.

LOL. The ironic thing about my husband is he's from the same area my dad is....so talk about doing the exact opposite of what you have done. :XD It was a major fluke though, seriously...and it really helped we were only a couple hours drive from one another so it made the transition in the relationship MUCH easier....Moving to another country really is tough.

@Cami
The time you and Krissy came out it was February or March, right? XD

@Izumi
Coincidence! I've been taking B-12 since pregnancy. I agree in that it makes all the difference in the world. :3 I'm also still taking my prenatals.
