The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

The Good:
Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday, pay day and the day that my husband returns home from his business trip to Las Vegas. The goods of this week: I saw that gas prices have finally dropped below $3.00 in Colorado - yeah - maybe I can start to save a little money on my commuting to work everyday and the random errands on the weekends. Another good is that another week down in the pregnancy! Good: I have gone through all of Katelynn's clothes and sold them off or gotten rid of them - yes, she has closet space again. Now I am ready to take in some boy / blue clothes and things that my friends have been waiting to unload on me. Good: We have Katelynn's Halloween costume bought and ready for her Halloween parties and for trick or treating. Good: My next photobook is done and has all of our summer pictures organized and getting printed and shipped hopefully next week - I have found my way to keep my need for developing pictures and having photo albums by loading all my digital photos into Shutterfly.com and making one of their albums, it's actually pretty neat and not to expensive when you consider you don't have to print your pictures in addition to the cost of the book. Now that the summer book is done I can start a fall 2008 book and keep more up to date on it so I don't have to try and do it all at once! I have finally finished the Thank you cards from Katelynn's birthday and they have all been mailed or handed out to recipients - whew, I have been putting that off for awhile. All in all things have been pretty darn good!
The Bad:
Where to start - the stocks crashing up and down - I do have some compassion (I said "some") and feel terrible for anyone who is looking to retire right now and their money accounts have dropped horribly. The bad - the constant commercials for the political race - enough already, they are all half truths and half lies or there were reasons behind decisions that were made - if anyone actually makes a mind changing decision on anyone of those commercials - God help us all.
The Ugly:
The ugly, ugly, ugly - man, I don't know what this little boy is doing to me, but I need a new "ass" - no, seriously - if anyone would like to trade their tailbone for mine, I am game. I can no longer sit comfortably at work for more than 30 minutes at the start of my day and after that I cannot get out of my chair without severe pain in my tailbone - what the hell is happening to me? Anybody? I cannot even imagine the facial expression that I convey when I try to get out of my chair after I have been planted there for over an hour. I was extremely uncomfortably and bitchy today at work - everyone stand back because even listening to Karen Carpenter was not calming my nerves today. I finally broke down and called a chiropractor and asked if they thought they could help me. I have never been to a chiropractor, but am thinking maybe they can do something because I have no other pain than the pain in my tailbone, how in the hell do you fix that when your pregnant? Let's see how bad they try to screw me over tomorrow morning and how many sessions they want me to come in for because I know my insurance isn't going to pay for this. I will be pretty forward with them and tell them you make it feel better or I won't be back again (I'm sure you can all imagine).
