This week is dragging by. I can't wait for Friday afternoon to get here, so we can have our ultrasound and hopefully find out if we are having a boy or a girl. Josh and I feel like our lives are in slow motion this week. Each day seems to last forever, the hours linger, the minutes feel like a lifetime. I've had feelings like this before...last week of college before graduation, the week before traveling to Disney World when I was 10, waiting to see Josh on the weekends when we were dating. Those events all caused me to be anxious and for the time to drag on, but nothing comes close to this week. We've done our best at trying to busy ourselves, trying to past the time. Luckily, Josh has had a lot of calls at work. I know he gets tired of them, but I think he is actually glad he has had something to do besides sit at the ambulance base and think about Friday getting here. I've even tried to get ahead on some things for work. No time like the present to distract myself with planning the Halloween Carnival (that isn't until October 28th). Plus, I've been making a list of house projects that I can do in the afternoons to keep me from watching the clock. None of those projects have happened yet, but that is only because I was more pleasingly distracted. Monday night I made a chicken casserole, and Josh, his ambulance partner Adam, and Adam's fiancee Victoria came over for dinner. The guys were working/on call, but we at least made it through dinner before they got a run. It was really nice having them over. Adam's last name is Lewis, and he has family from over towards Butler, so we are certain that somewhere down the line Adam and Josh are cousins of some sort. Victoria is precious, and just so sweet. She helped me with the dishes after the guys left, and it was so great to have them over. It distracted me for at least 4 hours, cooking and all.
Well, I guess I better get back to distracting myself somemore...the clock on my computer seems to have frozen as I write this...only 51 hours to go. Come on Friday, get here soon!
