So Nice To Be Working Again

    Well, I'm back to working again! Been there for almost a month now and it's been pretty great! Everyone has been SO nice and they don't seem to mind that I'm pregnant :)

    The walk is super nice too. It's a little less than a mile and if I keep a steady pace, I can make it in 20 minutes! Gotta get some better shoes though! The old ones I have are getting a little old and not so comfortable. 

    It's great being productive again. I only work part-time so I still get full days off and can rest. But I like having a good reason to get up and get ready in the morning. On days like today when I don't work, I might just sit in my pajamas for a few more hours!

    Now that I am working, this also means less blog posts. When I'm home I sleep A LOT and just veg out. Sometimes, if I'm not sleeping, the computer is on the floor. Depending on where this baby is hanging out, I can't bend over and get the computer. I can always sit down (fall down), but there is never any guarantee I can get back up again. Pretty sure Jared would just laugh at me for a few hours if he came home and I hadn't been able to get up off the floor for a few hours. 

    The current project for Jared and I is fixing up an old dresser. It's not broken or anything, it's just been painted on over the years. My Mom used this dresser, I used the dresser for years and years and when I moved my brother used the dresser. 

    So we are stripping the paint off the wood completely and sanding it down. The crib we have is a nice dark brown wood. We're going to attempt to stain the wood to the same color so it can all match. 

    And the dark brown will work for a boy or girl, which is great because we are probably NEVER going to try this again! 

    I'm not good at the stripping paint part, but I'm pretty good at sanding :) I borrowed a hand sander from a friend here in the ward who also happens to be right down the road from me in this apartment complex!


    When it is all finished I'll have before and after pictures to show! And everyone better be impressed by our hard work and our successful first try :)
