Maybe. It seems to be gone.

And hurry and get your redecorating done. Because your kid is going to knock down the paint canisters.

Can't believe school is starting so soon. Not fair! (on the 24th)

**vc318** · 08-09-2009, 05:02 AM

Exactly - I better do everything now because I really won't have a chance later.

School starts on the 24th for you too? Me as well. I'm going to try and start the school year off and then take my maternity leave around Labor Day. Then I probably won't return until around Christmas. I wish I could take my leave now but then that would mean no paycheck.

Er, I kind of need as much as I can considering that when I leave for my maternity, I won't be getting any money.

I sense the irony on that. Labor Day.

You can always get your hubby to do the painting and all. Heh.

Yeah, I thought so too.

Well, I may have to start my leave earlier than I thought - the swelling of my feet have gone out of control. Actually, it's more my left foot that's giving me the biggest problem. So, I'm going to get it checked out in a little bit and hope for the best. I'll keep you posted.

Get yourself a wheelchair and have your hubby roll you around.

No, no that won't be necessary.

Actually, everything worked out just fine last night. There were no blood clots found in my leg, which is a very good thing. But basically, I will need to stay off my feet and keep it elevated as much as possible. Where's the fun in that?

P.S. - I'm very happy about us making our post counts for July.

**~+Yamiko** · 08-13-2009, 10:04 PM

Well something needs to get your circulation going. And I'm pretty sure keeping your legs on a flatbed won't work.

At least you have more reasons to use the handicap stall without the pass.

Yeah, I was surprised about July's counts since I thought we were kind of slow.

Oh, I just realized that I'll be able to get one of those Stork Parking decals now. Yahoo!!!

I hope the traffic doesn't go down now that the summer is coming to an end.

The people in the hospital would understand but suppose if you're husband is the one driving to the hospital and happens to be speeding?

Just went with my uncle to the university today. In the map, it looks intimidating (distance wise) but it's not as bad as it seems.

Yeah, I hope the count doesn't drop so much. Especially with school starting soon for me, you going on maternity leave some time...

No, we've been practicing the hospital routes and so forth. Thankfully, he's not one of those deranged husbands who would run off in his boxers in the middle of the night to rush me to the hospital - he's a pretty sensible guy.

But I told him that if he goes beserk on D-Day then I'm sending him home and that's that.

You should be nearing the end of your program, correct? Or did you change your major again?

I know - these are things we can't help right now. We'll just do the best we can to keep the traffic up as much as possible.

Had I gone to university right after high school, I wouldn't be in this little predicament I'm in. Apparently, the university system sucks when it comes to class registration because while I understand the priority on current/graduate students, why a three month gap between them and new students??

I'm still going for an English but at the moment, majority of my classes I'm taking this semester are not exactly English classes. I'm taking a Playwriting class since I want to branch out in other fields of writing other than just novel wise (and I'm not going to go in to Journalism. Never worked out)

According to my status, I'm a Junior. Although it'll probably be two or 2.5 years until I get my Bachelor's. Then it's off to try out for the JET program.

Basically, the Pre-Requisite classes I need to take to take the 300 classes are all full. Hopefully something can work out next semester.

A woman about to go in to labor while driving to the hospital is quite a deadly combination you know.

Oh, so you're nearly done.

Maybe you can get into those other courses you need next summer?

I don't drive anymore - hubby does. But I sure do drive him bananas!

**~+Yamiko** · 08-22-2009, 12:16 AM

Possibly, but courses in the summer are usually more expensive. It's a good suggestion though.

I would think summer courses to be cheaper since most students go home then.

**~+Yamiko** · 08-23-2009, 02:11 AM

Concerning they run for several weeks and that you have to cram as much in as you can. I don't know, that's just me.

On a plus side, I did go shopping for some clothes for school and would have bought a hat that looked likes something from the 1920s era had it only been on sale.

(Huge sale going on and the hat's not included. The hat in question is $24)
