As it turned out&#8230;not much!&nbsp; I did work some on the computer, but as for chores, etc., well, I got my bed made.&nbsp; That&#8217;s about all I managed on Friday.&nbsp; I really thought I&#8217;d be more up to working, but it just wasn&#8217;t to be.&nbsp; That evening, Eric went to a hockey game with his brother, and I hung out on the couch and knitted.&nbsp; The babies &amp; uterus were extremely active that night, though, so I didn&#8217;t mind not doing much.&nbsp; I watched <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">MythBusters<\/span> and then flipped over to the presidential debate.&nbsp; But after about a half-hour of the blather, I wanted to beat my head against a wall, so I found something else.&nbsp; Eric got home around 10:00.<br \/><br style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Saturday<\/span>:&nbsp; The morning was pretty low-key, but I did get the dishwasher loaded.&nbsp; And of course there was XangaFest in the afternoon.&nbsp; My sister and I went together (thanks again for driving, Karen!), and we had a great time.&nbsp; Thanks to Beki, Gail, Marla and everybody who made it so great!&nbsp; Also, Gail clued me in to which of my belly&#8217;s activities are contractions, so that was fantastically helpful!&nbsp; Thanks, Gail!!&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>Since XangaFest was held in our hometown, we left a bit early and headed to my parents&#8217; house to say hello to everyone there, including Chris &amp; Deb (and the girls, of course).&nbsp; Deb is looking great!&nbsp; We sat around, talked, and laughed and laughed.&nbsp; It was a really great afternoon.&nbsp; Karen and I stopped at WalMart (where Karen introduced me to the wonderful world of baby food <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s.xanga.com\/images\/shocked.gif\">) on the way home, and then I crashed for the rest of the evening with my husband.<br style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><br style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Sunday<\/span>: I was having trouble singing in church yesterday.&nbsp; I can&#8217;t get a full breath very often anymore, which makes singing a bit more challenging.&nbsp; But then baby boy was dancing to the music&#8230;on my bladder.&nbsp; Apparently, he&#8217;s musically inclined already!&nbsp;&nbsp; Also, I am getting a lot more comments from random people about how close I must be to having &#8220;this little one&#8221; &#8211; especially from kind little old ladies at church.&nbsp; The looks I get when I say it&#8217;s twins are quite amusing, I must say!<\/p>\n<p>After church, I made pies for small group, then dinner, then finished the second pie, but my feet hurt too much to finish loading the dishwasher.&nbsp; So I sat down for an hour, read the paper, and knitted some more.&nbsp; Then I finished the dishes.&nbsp; We had small group in the evening, and afterwards, I watched the old <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Parent Trap<\/span> movie just to unwind.<\/p>\n<p>And that was the weekend.&nbsp; Today I have no major plans, but I do have a number of little things I could do.&nbsp; So I will probably work on them.&nbsp; And other than that&#8230;we shall see!<\/p>\n<p>Happy Monday!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday: On Friday, I think I mentioned that I wasn&#8217;t sure what I would do to fill the day.&nbsp;
