The count down dwindles

Tomorrow is the day. Unless something happens today/night my "sissypants" will have labor induced tomorrow morning sometime. We have to call the hospital at 5:30am to check on room status and the doc wants us signed in by 6:30am. My nervous have started to kick in. I can feel the anticipation building up. I mean how much closer does this get? Not much more than it is right now.

What do I want? I want this to be as easy on my wife as possible while remaining as safe as possible for our daughter. I know she's starting to get the nerves about what is to come physically for her. I could only imagine. I mean I think it's rough when I eat a lot of cheese... I can't imagine having a baby. I will be there for both my girls and they can take from me anything that they need.

There has been some last minute talk about a possible name change. Going from Gabrielle to Jillian. It may come down to what we see when we first lay our eyes on her.
Gabrielle = God is my might.
Jillian = Down-bearded youth <--- WTF does that mean?

I've been a bit under the weather the last couple weeks. My guts just haven't been right. Just as they start to get back to normal, I feel like I have a head cold. Connor has been sick as well. Poor little guy. He's a trooper though for the most part. Even when he's feeling like shit he'll tell you "Thank you".

I was offered a job. I told them I'd take it, but I still have second thoughts. It just doesn't feel like "it". Maybe it's just because it's been so long since I had my interviews and shit for the place. The whole process took over a month. I had an interview for another place on Friday and if I was offered that job, I'd take it. It pays better, and has pretty good benefits. It's more up my alley too. They said that they would have a decision on Monday or Tuesday. The only problem with both jobs it that they are a good drive for me if we stay in the Jersey Shore school district. The likely hood of us moving is not good.

Speaking of moving I'm all sorts of preapproved these days. Shame everything here is over priced...

The next time I visit my blog I will be welcoming some one new to this world.

Later.

I love you Julie.

My post card to you

I really like that title. I may try to do something with it.

This may very well be my last blog entry before our baby girl joins us. My "sissypants" was having contractions today. I found myself watch some baby show on TLC or Discovery this morning. The happiness I get from my thoughts will fail in comparison to how I will feel the first time I see our Gabrielle Christine.

Still no house for the clan. We looked at one that was promising until we went through it. I kid you not when I say that this house smelled like a piss factory. It was just about to the point of being unbearable. I noticed in the sign in sheet they removed the carpets about a month ago. I bet when that carpet was in there it would have made you loose your lunch. Anyway the house was also in the flood zone. I just don't think I can bring myself to living in the flood zone. At least, not right in it. Julie says, that's what flood insurance is for. I say, flood insurance doesn't pay for the experience you have going through a flood. We'll keep on keeping on until we find "it".

Speaking of all those things house shopping, I need to vent some about realtors. I just found out today that I may qualify for a renovation loan. Long story short, they'll lend you extra cash for potential value in the future. I want to know why in the hell I wasn't informed about this shit in the beginning? I think this is how it should work. I go in they say "Ok Mr. JW based on your credit score these are the loan options available to you." Instead I find out by the realtor being reminded of such loans due to a house that smells like piss. I have not signed a contract with any realtor and I do not plan on it. I know I'm preaproved through one place already and possibly another. I may just end up doing this on my own...

Still no job even though my second interview went very well at this one place. I think they may be waiting until April. When I met with them I made sure to tell them about the baby girl coming and if it would be alright if I had to miss a couple days around then. We'll see what April brings. In the mean time I mailed out my resume twice this week already. Something has to give!

What nice weather we've been having. I love spring time.

Until next time...

Later.

I love you Julie.
