The joy of pregnancy...........or not so much........

Well actually, the story starts yesterday. My husband comes home from work with news that our old mustang just blew out a spark plug. If you have ever seen a spark plug, I am sure you know they usually don't have any moving parts... So he asked me to ride my bike over to the local auto store to purchase a new spark plug so he could get to work. Easy enough... Well, since it was somewhere between 95-105 degrees outside at the time, I figured it wouldn't hurt to wait an hour or two for it to cool down a little bit. So we sat down, watched America's Got Talent (Awesome show!!), ate dinner, and absolutely totally forgot about the car in the garage with only 7 spark plugs.........

I woke up about 5 am to realize, oh no, I forgot.......... I couldn't sleep... Kinda mad at myself for forgetting...
By the time Michael was ready to get up I had figured out what time the auto shop would be open, sat a new alarm, and was ready with an apology.

So, finally at 7 am I got up, got dressed and got on my bike. I opened the garage to see rain drops forming on the driveway... Great... I run back to get my rain jacket and get going. The wind is picking up, my pants are soaked, I get to the store in about 10 min.

I get back home, get the spark plug in the car and says "Have a good day" to my Michael, who will now be more than an hour late for work, just cuz I forgot... (I'm so sorry!!)

I get me some water, sits down for about a minute... Then, my "happy 16 weeks pregnant" gift arrives... As my husband said "Baby gave you a 16 week present already this morning. The opportunity to pray to the porcelain goddess :P" 


I have now decided I am not going on a bike ride, in the rain, with the wind resisting you, early in the morning without eating anything first, ever again!!!!!!!!


The good thing is, my husband got to work safe and our car is as perfect as ever before :)

  1. Just remember that a pregnant woman always have to eat first, no matter what she is going to do. Eat first, do the things you have to do afterwards....

  3. Oh, I don't mind going at all :) It's nice to have an excuse to HAVE to exercise :) I know I need to :) But yeah, I was kinda stupid not to eat anything first.. It was a lazy morning.. But it was kinda nice to get up early, get out and exercise a bit, and the rain wasn't horrible either :) But I don't like that I forgot yesterday, then Michael wouldn't have been late for work... But, it happens :)
