Here's something weird - I sometimes get that Braxton-Hicks feeling even when I'm not pregnant!  I had false labor a lot with Chane.  The doctor said the way I could tell is if I started walking around a lot and they went away.  Real labor would progress with exercise but Braxton-Hicks would subside.  Of course you feel like lying down when you get them out of fear of having the baby early!

 

Do you like your cinnamon roll recipe?  Is it bread machine?  I want to make real cinnamon rolls this year instead of the kind in a can.  We have cinnamon rolls every Christmas morning.  Although I'm not sure if I can deal with baking on Christmas Eve along with everything else. Do you ever make yours the night before?  I did it once and they were crusty like you said.  I let them rise in the fridge instead of baking them the night before.  I wonder if baking them the night before would be better?  Is that what you do?  I know I can't deal with actually making the rolls on Christmas morning.  I have so much trouble rolling them out that even with the bread machine doing the work it still takes me a long time.

 

LOL I just read your next paragraph about covering it.  If you cover it with greased plastic wrap would that keep it from being crusty?  I do that with regular rolls.  Hmm.  You are the expert - any advice?

 

I am starting to finally realize what time of day I can get things done too.  LIke different times I can do different things. It used to be that late at night I could get stuff done but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.  Last night we were watching tv and I asked Scott if we could pause it for 5 minutes and go down and do something.  I managed to finally sort out everything in the living room so it looks nice now other than the actual tubs of sorted stuff need to be moved out but it's nto spread all over.  He did his Scout tub because he was having an asthma attack and couldn't move around fast.  He's been having a low grade attack for a few days.  I would like to call and make him an appointment - I wonder if he has a respiratory infection like bronchitis or something?  But I don't know when to make the appointment and can't get him to make one himself.  Maybe I'll just do it and call him at work and tell him to get home for the doctor.  If I could be sure I could actually reach him!

 

Anyway, I was saying I need to do better about planning for when I have more energy because I do know what times I can do what.  Although the last couple of weeks anything is an effort.  No highs.  I think that might be the drugs?  I don't know!  I have a cleaning job today - I'll see if I feel like lying down halfway through again.  I hope not - that really sucked.  Luckily Brae seems to be okay.  I might have even resorted to taking him sick to my mom's just to avoid postponing this job - it seems like I'm always postponing for sickness and I didn't want to do it again not to mention I don't want any cleaning jobs next week.

 

Gotta get C out of tub
