A Snap-shot of Pregnancy Moments

After a not too long day at work all I wanted was a hot shower a coke icee and to go early to bed. Stopping "quick" at Wal-Mart took one hour and fifteen minutes. I came for two essential things and left without them (which I didn't realize until the following day of course!).
Ok so what's for dinner? It's seven thirty, I'm starving. I don't wanna cook I just want that hot shower and coke icee...I really should try and get some sleep before Lamaze tomorrow. Luckily Maggie had some great tasting left-overs so I chowed those down.
Now for the shower. Steamy and hot,it was worth it but I overestimated the time spent relaxing. A quarter 'till nine and still I need that coke icee I have been waiting all week for.
Maggie and I hop in the car to run a few more "quick" errands. Pick up my prescription from Walgreens then get gas and icee at Buckys. The pharmacist says it will be about a half an hour and I realize that early to bed was a half an hour ago. I'm still happy, I'm gonna get my coke icee.
We get to Buckys, pump gas, go inside and an icee does not sound good. Not even a little bit. I want a pie. They don't have any pie. It's ok maybe Walgreens does. They don't.
So we run by Bag'N'Save. Maggie gets Mac and Cheese and Turkey Pot Pie (and who said the pregnant one eats the most...?). I get Ramon noodles to satisfy the craving I now have for pasta. Standing in the frozen food isle, I beg Maggie to pick Mrs. Smith's peach or blueberry pie-I can not decide, and we are on our way.
It is now ten and there we are eating Ramon noodles and Mac and Cheese watching Seinfeld and Everybody Loves Raymond while waiting for our pie to bake. No coke icee and no early to bed, but I am realishing every minute.
