It Doesn't Feel Much Like Fall

I quit being able to sleep last night. My stomach has started hurting and the anxiety has set in. Pregnant women start 'nesting' right before the baby is born, cleaning up, getting things ready, etc. Well I have definitely started nesting. Last night I cleaned the entire house, got rid of all the clutter and paperwork. So many bags of trash! Washed all the towels, rugs, sheets, etc. Got out office all organized and things to take to Goodwill. Cleaned out the fridge, etc. Then this morning (finally it was morning, I didn't sleep AT ALL!) I even scrubbed down the shower...with an old toothbrush to make sure it was extra shiny. I am never this OCD, but I can't help it. I just don't feel like I can get prepared enough.

I did go over to the neighbors and take him some wine, cheese and crackers because we owe him a dinner and none of our schedules seem to match right now. We owe him dinner because he cut both out hairs a few weeks ago. He is a professional hairdresser and works at this fabulous salon that I could never afford. So I talked to him for a little bit and he told me that he will come over while I am stuck at home in bed and wash my hair, give me a trim, maybe even some highlights. I am excited. Gives me something to look forward to. Especially having a neighbor that doesn't work a normal 9-5 job, so I know he can come over at random times. He was a nurse prior to becoming a hairdresser and has started working both jobs as of lately, so I also like knowing there is a registered nurse next door. I think outside of my mom, he would be the only other person I would feel comfortable having wash my hair while I am stuck in bed.

Justin comes home tonight though!! I am excited. I am going to make us dinner at home and have a chill, lowkey night, seeing I didn't sleep last night and I know he is exhausted. Tomorrow is wine tasting and going to look at the leaves changing. Sunday and monday, I need to really get things together. Mom comes on Tuesday and then D-Day (or maybe it should be S-DAY) is on Wednesday.

Happy it's Friday! But now I have a 3 hour, all company meeting. And they aren't serving lunch. It is from 11AM-2PM. I'll want to eat my shirt by the time I leave this meeting!
