I finally got to see Dakotah in person on Wednesday. Eeeee, baby! She's so tiny and wrinkled and pink and perfect. She's off of the respirator, and they even took her feeding tube out while we were there. She's already up to 4 lbs. 10 oz. They said if she continues at this rate they'll be able to take her home in a couple of weeks. I took many pictures, and I hope to post some soon.
And the auntie credentials just keep coming: we found out last week that Ash is going to be a big brother. Yay! Guess I need to make L'il Sis's bridesmaid poncho maternity-sized. I also need to get busy knitting baby blankets.
In other news, it's been a weird week, fraught with ups and downs. My Girly TMI hit early this month, so I was PMSing and didn't even know it, and that was fun for everybody. Combine that with general depression re: getting older and being unemployed and the excitement just keeps on coming. But there were highs, too, with seeing the baby and getting taken on a little shopping spree by my mom for my birthday. I now have several adorable skirts and some freaking fabulous shoes. All I need now is an office to wear them to.
Speaking of, apparently my agent at the temp agency thinks she might have found an upper level administrative assistant job for me. It pays well, so if I get offered it I'll take it, though I think I'll keep looking for something in my field this time instead of settling. It's too early to talk much about all of that right now, though. I'll just cross my fingers and see what happens.
I do believe Matt is waiting for his turn on the computer, so I guess I'd better leave off. Later taters! >--goober
