Going - not going - so much back and forth!

First we were going to go up north, then we weren't, then we were, and we are officially staying home.  I guess that means I will have more time to spend entering giveaways on other people's blogs.  Unfortunately that means that I will be watching Makena without help, it's so hard when daddy is in the next room.  I just want to take a nap sometimes!

I had an unexpected visit to the clinic yesterday.  After an hour of monitoring and then another hour of waiting around and getting checked - all is well. I was there so long because I didn't have an appointment.  Anyway, I was diagnosed with having hydra-something or other.  Basically, Matthew was laying in a fashion that tricked my body into sending pain signals similar to those of a kidney stone.  My pain was in the lower right abdomen and since I didn't have a fever, anything to do with the appendix was ruled out.  The pain was so intense that even I cried.  Which I don't do.  For goodness sakes I didn't even cry when I broke my toe the other day, I ALMOST did, but didn't.  So, once Matthew moved all was good, and the doctor showed me how to make him move faster next time.

I'm also on a hunt for CUTE brown shoes or boots and am having NO luck.  I went to 5 different stores and found 1 pair I liked, but they were out of my size, go figure.  So I think I may have to resort to online shopping.  I don't like doing that though since you can't try them on until they show up at your door.  If I find  a place with free shipping and returns I may chance it.

Anyway, nothing really GOOD to report around here, but perhaps something fun will happen this weekend.

UPDATE: these are the boots I found and bought!!  I hope they live up to my expectations.  I have to wait 3-5 days until I get them.
