5th October 2009

Mom was busy last night and started to sew cloth diapers for the baby. Without asking, she knew I would be wanting to use cloth over disposables. We went shopping a few weeks ago at the fabric store for some diaper flannel. This kidlet is going to have some pretty nifty undergarments. There are 5 different cloth patterns. I need to go get some diaper covers now.

Photo Below: I decided a sideshot was in order, since people said I did not look pregnant in the photo I posted the other day (September 29th blog). Yay!! My face looks halfway normal in this photo. But told you I look the size of a barn!

I am heading south today to look at a house. It is on SMALL acreage and looks dark in the yard for gardening. But it is heated by woodstove, so that is already set up and has a large shop which would work well for an office (almost too large), but you never know.. so I am taking a look at it.

Afternoon Update: My two ribs which dislocated again I am cursing. I have had to sleep in a recliner chair the last couple of nights, but the rib pain is radiating to where my back was injured a couple years ago. Crossing railroad tracks are BRUTAL! I have been hanging out on the couch in my flannel PJ's since I got back to mom's. I am living under the HOT water of the shower frequently throughout the day.

Went and looked at the house down south. It is in a city, it is on a quarter acre and the house is really cute with a country kitchen and the woodstove is set up wonderfully in an alcove. For in the city, there is alot of room and a wicked two story shoppe which is perfect for the DTTR office and other things. (Men would be JEALOUS of that shop -- really!) You could almost move into it to live as well. There is a woodstove and it is plumbed for compressed air all over the shop, up and down, It was a specialty fabrication metal shop and even had clean rooms. I so could teach classes there.

I will keep my eye on this one, but still playing a chess game with the bank about the 1940's farmhouse on property. I heard back from them this afternoon.
