Things I miss

I miss being in Arkansas.  Shocking, I know.  I miss several things about it:

I miss the fruit.  Not as tasty here, for some reason.

I miss the fresh garden produce.  Cuke salad, tomato salad, garlic beans...... yummy!

I miss the endless space for the kids to play.  They don't miss it yet, but they will.

I miss the library.  It had a great kid's room.

I miss Diamond Head Chinese Restaurant.  They had a handy drive through and I could drive by, hand over my $3.51 and drive off with the most marvelous Crab Rangoon ever made.  Sigh.  The gal there knew me by sight.  I miss her. I miss those Crab Rangoon more.  No one else makes them so deliciously! Nothing else compares.

And now that I am on the subject of things I miss.... I miss my body:

I miss being able to bend over.

I miss being able to roll over at night without needing a crane and pulley.

I miss being able to run 5 miles- now I can barely walk one.

I miss being able to squeeze into places.

I miss being able to drive without the steering wheel poking into my belly.

I definitely miss being able to get up and down without a lot of effort!

I miss being able to grab an errant child.  Now its almost too much work to discipline.  And that's not good.

On the plus side, in 6-8 weeks it will be over and 'll have other things to complain about! But I will NOT miss being pregnant!
