Last night, I was motivated. I thought about doing dishes (because my husband has been slacking this week), laundry (because I’ve been slacking this week), sewing some material that I bought two months ago into a blanket for baby, unpack more stuff for my gallery, organize the closet in the nursery, pack my hospital bag, and a few dozen other things.
What did I do instead?
I started updating my website!
I know, long time coming, right?
While on maternity leave, I will actually be working with a web designer to completely revamp my site into something truly custom and “me”, but until then, I updated the galleries on my site with some more recent work that speaks more to the style. Devan and certain blog-stalkers (no names!) have been on my case for a while now because it had been way too long since I’d done anything on it, and even though I had everything sorted into files on my laptop, they hadn’t actually gotten up yet.
It isn’t quite done, I was having issues with my FTP client last night uploading everything, so the homepage slideshow isn’t loading yet, and it took me a couple hours to get it to upload the correct size of vertical images for the galleries, but those are at least up. Minor updates were made to the info pages, too.
I hope to get the homepage fixed tonight, so patience, please! In the meantime, puruse the galleries, let me know if something isn’t loading right, and enjoy!
And whatever you do, don’t tell Travis (my husband) that I crawled into bed literally seconds before his alarm went off to leave for work this morning. He has to get up at 2:40 to drive to work in Illinois (he is carpooling with a coworker), and I hadn’t even gotten my pillows adjusted and blanket over me when his alarm went off. 🙂 He gets after me for staying up too late, but I don’t like stopping in the middle of things! Besides, I likely would have been laying awake in bed anyway since I just can’t get comfy anymore! 🙂
Speaking of patience, I am patiently waiting to have this baby. Today is 36 weeks, which means if I go into labor, I could be delivered!!! I was showing progress at my appointment on Tuesday, but the docs think I can make it quite a while longer. Travis and I are hoping before the end of the month, but aren’t holding our breaths. Last night while I was working on the site, Baby Boy was pushing and playing and keeping me entertained, and I will really miss that!.
