So, Steph has been on my case (rightly so!) about posting another blog, so as I sat here tonight, doing nothing, I figured what the heck! So here goes!
A month and a half has passed, and life, although seemingly busier, is just as dull (for the most part) as the last time I posted.
Nothing new has happened, really. Life is life. And aside from the fact that I'm an Auntie to a beautiful baby girl now, everything is just the same. Still single (though, I have a date that I'm pretty confident about next week), still working, still keeping in touch with friends.
My niece, Sophia was born on December 29th, 2010 @ 3:06pm. She weighed 6lbs 13oz. She's so alert these days and starting to crack actual smiles and coo-ing more. I love it. Trina and my aunt had baby girls recently as well. Trina had Mina on December 23rd and my aunt had Paitynn on January 20th. 3 girls born all in less than a month. It has made my baby fever go absolutely wild. The twinges I get when I hold such a pure little being are almost unbearable. I know that I'm not in the right spot in my life to be reproducing, but damn, I'd have a baby so fast if I could.
I took my 2 weeks holiday at the end of December. I didn't really slow down much as there were errands to do all over the place, but it was a nice break from work. Getting back on shift was nuts, though. There's definitely no "ease in" back into my job. 3pm rolls around, shift report gets done and I'm right back at being pulled 18 different ways. Almost a bit overwhelming at times. I just finished my "friday" and so I'm off for the next 3 days. I definitely want to relax. But lord knows I say that every weekend.
We actually had an incident at work a couple weeks ago, where one of my residents literally DIED, and was flat lined for a good 3-4 mins when he came back to life with an incredibly loud gasp of air. I nearly cried, and thinking about it still gives me the creeps. He lived for another 2 or so weeks, but has since passed. I've never in my life seen something like that. It just goes to show how amazing our bodies are and what we can withstand.
I'm getting my hair done tomorrow at 12:30 and I'm still so stuck on what I want to do with it. I'm pretty sure I'll get an inch or two cut off, add some layers, some bangs and a few chunky streaks thrown in. But who knows. It's been SO long since I've gone to get my hair done, so I'm just excited about sitting in a chair for 2 hours and having someone do it for me haha.
Like I said, I'm still rocking the single life. I've been fortunate and have had a few good dates the last little while, but nothing substantial has come out of it. I'm not complaining, because my life is quite fulfilling, but it's getting increasingly lame to not have anyone to share it with. I have a date coming up in the next week or so, and I really feel like throwing all my eggs (proverbial, that is) into one basket with it, but at the same time, I've done that in the past and it hasn't gotten me far. I'm already far more open and comfortable with this person than I have been with people who I've been on 3-4 dates with, so it's started out pretty well. I have butterflies and all that cheesy female stuff haha. I don't think it'll be a bust :)
I need to get my oil changed in my car. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow. Hmm.
As for now, though, I'm getting pretty tired. Going to try and get a good sleep so I can get up early and figure out what the hell to do with my hair lol!
GOODNIGHT, STEPH!!
