I'm All Feelings...

Lately I've been so emotional. It takes NOTHING to make me cry. The usual sad song or sappy commercial, even a semi sad movie used to be the only things that activated the water works, but now it's ANYTHING! I was watching Bella eat her food and drink her water and she was just so cute that my eyes got all teary. It's crazy how emotional I get. Yesterday took the cake though. I went downtown McAllen to buy some ribbon for a present that I'm making. I thought downtown would have cheap ribbon (cheaper than Hobby Lobby) because it's practically Mexico and things are almost free in Mexico, RIGHT? WRONG! I stood in line with my one spool of ribbon behind a MILLION people buying flowers and crap in bulk. I was there forever! So I finally get to the front and the lady looks at my ribbon and says "En efectivo" I say "no, con tarjeta"...remember this is LIKE Mexico...so then she says "NO, en efectivo" (that means CASH ONLY). I didn't have cash :o( I only have my freakin' debit card! So I said "REALLY?" Apparently you can't purchase anything on your debit card under $10. Well I didn't need $10 worth of ribbon, I needed one spool for $2.50. She just looked at me and shrugged her shoulders. I could feel my eyes filling with tears so I just said ok, put the ribbon down, and walked out. I walked to my car got inside and as soon as I closed the door I stared sobbing! SOBBING...not just crying...SOBBING! I cried the whole way back to the office. My mom suggested just going to Hobby Lobby. Once I calmed down I went to HL and guess what...ALL OF THE RIBBON WAS 50% OFF! I could get one spool of ribbon for $1! This time my eyes filled with tears of joy! I got 2 spools :o) AND paid with my debit card!

Today I went to lunch with mom at Luby's and we went to Hallmark to get some mother's day cards. On the way out my ankle twisted and I fell...to the ground! I hadn't fallen at all since I've been pregnant. I've had close calls, but I can usually regain my balance or catch myself on something/someone. This time my ankle rolled and it seemed like I went down like a ton of bricks. I landed on my my hands and knees and it really hurt! I got up right away and TRIED to laugh it off, but I was super scared for Lily that my laughter quickly turned to tears. Mom tried to calm me down saying it was ok, and that it was a really slow fall. I didn't sob this time, I just wiped my tears and kept on walking. As soon as I got back to work I checked Lily out in ultrasound to make sure she wasn't too shook up. She was good, nice strong heart rate :o) just chillin' in my tummy. I felt so scared though, that was the first time I felt a real panic! That's when I should have been sobbing, but NOOOO, I cry over ribbon!

Ok, back to work :o) P.S. I'll be 33 weeks tomorrow!
