Am I just hormonal?!?!?!
Sooo...in further development with the bitchy co-worker...I'm finding myself in a tough spot...not sure if it's hormones governing my thoughts or if these are really valid?! Someone HELP!!!
That same bitchy co-worker is in the process of adopting a baby in place of not being able to conceive. She's going through a private adoption...and the baby will be born in February. She already knows it's a girl..which causes some mixed feelings right there (will talk about in a min)...and is constantly talking to me about it.
Now, where my craziness comes into play is that I'm uber frustrated with her always telling me things like "Our daugther's going to be cute though...all of her kids have red hair and bright blue eyes." or "I need not be so hard on my self. I am so afraid she is going to change her mind...ugh. Need to focus on positive karma."...Now I have no problem talking her through the positive thinking and reminding her that she must stay calm and collected through it...but in the same breath, I don't need to hear things like the first quote...I don't want to think about it that much right now because it hurts me...it hurts that she can say those things to me...but I have to watch what I say!!! That she never asks me how I am doing!!!!
I don't know...again, maybe I'm just being hormonal...
Okay, for the other thing...since they know it's a girl...then she already calls the baby Monroe...which is what they're naming her....but that's the name Steven and I want for our little girl....soooooo...if we have a girl too..they will both be Monroe...and I don't know how I'm supposed to feel about that... My heart kind of sank last week when I found out...
*sigh* Any help...from anyone??? Am I just crazy????

What did I do!?
Why do people find some way, in all their own life's stresses, to just tear me down!?
My co-worker...while I understand far too well her situation...decided to rip into me today about how she thinks my situation is wrong and how if she were me she wouldn't be pregnant and that it's wrong of me to get government assistance...blah blah blah...
Anyways, here's the true breakdown of me vs her right now:
~~Applying for Medicaid...yes, its tax payers money paying for all the things I'll need, but I don't work enough hours to get my companies health insurance and other outside insurance is far too expensive.
**In her situation, she's worked for our company for 9 years...meaning she doesn't know what its like to struggle to pay when you're super sick...
~~Living in a small, rented house with Steven, our two dogs, and my cat.
**She owns her own 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home and two brand new cars with her husband and 3 dogs
~~I'm very much in debt and live paycheck to paycheck because I don't have much assistance and am working my butt off to pay as much as I can off in a timely fashion.
**She keeps a minimum amount in her bank account and her parents helped her pay off all her debt years ago...
NOW..I HATE talking about her like this...she and her husband have been trying for over a year now via fertility drugs and everything...and in the meantime, I've just been here! But when I WAS married we tried for a year and nothing...so I really do know where she's been but I've never once talked bad about the things she's confided in me...
BUT, here I am...getting ripped completely apart because I'm in a tough spot as it is and now I have an unplanned pregnancy to deal with....well, in all honesty, I'm so happy about it that the stress doesn't even tear me down anymore...Maybe I'm just crazy and being a total bitch posting this..but I was sooo hurt earlier...
She told me things like, "I would get rid of the dogs"...."I don't agree with your situation, it's bad timing"...."Your man isn't working so how are you supposed to provide"...blah blah blah blah....
REDUCED ME TO TEARS!!!!!
THEN...I called Steven to tell him what happened and so he texted her to let her know that he doesn't appreciate her tearing us down like that....needless to say, once she came back to work I got this screamed at me, "Tell Merv to stop fucking texting me or I'll file harrassment charges on him!"
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Fuck people today :(

The tests and my parents...
Here's a pic of the tests for verifications sake...and for my own "scrap booking" purposes! :) 
The picture is terrible! I was taking it in a rush on my bathroom rug before Steven walked in and thought I was a crazy woman!!! haha :)
Telling my parents last night didn't go quite as rough as I thought it might. We walked in the door just as they were heading downstairs to relax and I asked them to both come up...I handed a little card to my mom that said "Imagine where they'll go" on the front with baby feet and "Congratulations" on the inside. We had both signed it. She read it, gasped, and said, "you're going to have a baby?!"
I told her yep...my dad didn't say anything...he just stood on the stairs and looked at us...I smiled at him and he kept a grin on his face.
My mom asked the obvious questions, "So where are you going to put a baby?" and "What about health care?" My answers: "We'll put Ziona with Hercules in his kennel and we'll put the baby in her kennel!" hahahahha j/k and "I'll apply for Medicaid"
We weren't there for more than 10 minutes...and that was that...no harm done!
NOW...I'm sicker than the dickens!!! Morning sickness 24/7!!! I'm not enjoying this part at all...except that it's obvious this pregnancy is sticking because my hormones keep screwing up my body!!! Bleck!

Super important, private info, that i HAVE to share...
Haha, okay okay, so I only have 9 followers..and whilst I adore all of you, only 2 of you actually know people that I know that shouldn't know this information quite yet...does that make sense??!?!? ANYWAYS...Jaqi, Andrea...don't spread the word, k!?
BUT...I have to blog this...HAVE TO!
I've been rather ill feeling for a couple weeks now...and I'd known that my "Aunt Flo" was right around the corner so I just figured that was it...that I was just feeling ill from that....
Well, after being 2 weeks late and feeling like poo the whole time, I decided to take a couple tests...pregnancy tests that is...(in case it wasn't obvious)!
Well, Friday night before we went out and before any tests, I started to spot a little...both Steven and I were SUPER disappointed thinking that my "Aunt Flo" had come finally! Well, then it stopped...so we went to the store and got tests...
Since hormone levels are highest in the mornings, I waited to take test #1 on Saturday morning....did so...and well, 3 long minutes later, POSITIVE... :)
We got Dorothy (Steven's mom) a #1 Grandma mug to break the news to her...and she was sooo happy!!
Sunday morning...test #2....3 more long minutes...POSITIVE!!! :)
Wellllll....2 positive tests later...we've bought my parents a card and are hoping to break the news to them tonight...I'm super nervous about it...but we'll see...
Needless to say, right now, I'm sick to my stomach, tired, and 6-7 weeks pregnant! hahaha
:)
NOW, like I said before...I should wait to put this out in public domain...but I needed to write about it...soo...don't say anything...I need to get through my first trimester before the whole world knows....
BUT...I have to blog this...HAVE TO!

Snoring dogs and baseball...
Hercules...God love that dog!!! He's fantastic and on a whim last night, Steven and I decided to let him sleep with us in our bed. Now, mind you, we have a queen size bed and we're not small people. Add in a large dog and a cat....it's awfully cramped!!! BUT it was so great!!! Hercules is wonderful about laying down and holding still although he gets stretching modes and at various points either one of us was getting a paw to the throat...oh well!!! Sadly, I could hardly breathe all night and this morning I feel like I have fleas because I'm itching so much!!! I think I'm slightly allergic :( Soooo, on that note, Hercules won't be able to sleep with us anymore...but that one night was fun!
Aside from that, we're entering what we hope to be (crosses fingers) another ROCKTOBER!!! WTF!? You ask...Well, in Colorado we have our baseball team the Rockies...and two years back they entered into a wonderful streak of games in the month of October...coining the term "Rocktober". Well, it being Oct 1st, they are playing the game to clinch a playoff spot...
Sooo...lets have it!
HERE WE GO ROCKIES, HERE WE GO!!!!
