I’m thinking of changing my name from Unknown Mami to Mami the Grouch. Aren’t you glad you don’t live with me?
I noticed that as the week progressed my mood went from worse, to worser, to worsest. Don’t you dare tell me that worser and worsest are not words! If I say my mood is at it’s worsest, it’s best not to correct my grammar at that moment.
Yesterday, I was thinking about it and realized that my mood keeps going downhill because on Monday I have to go back for yet another ultrasound. I’m just so tired of worrying.
Technology is a blessing and a curse. Because of it I know that my amniotic fluid is low and that my baby may or may not have one kidney. Everything hopefully will turn out fine, but in the meantime I get to brood and worry about something I can do nothing about.
I feel like I am not allowed to be happy or excited about this pregnancy because who knows what will happen.
So I’m grouchy!
My daughter, Put Pie, turned 2 less than a month ago. Oh my goodness, someone at the playground must have alerted her that now is the time to start acting up. I wouldn’t say she is terrible, but there are moments when she is not delightful.
She does however crack me up when she brags about the size of her poop. She will yell while on the toilet, “BIG CACA! BIG CACA!!!” She follows it by cheering for herself. If only I could get so joyful about such simple things. She also claps for me when I go to the bathroom. She says, “Yay, Mama go caca!” It’s nice to have someone rooting for me and my bowels.
I haven’t figured out how to make money for doing nothing, yet, so my finances are suffering. If you guys have figured out how to make money for just being please share the secret, unless it’s a pyramid scheme.
The other day I was on the phone with Unknown Papi while I was feeding Put Pie (she happened to be bare-bottomed at the time) and I said, “Do not put your hands between your butt cheeks while you are eating!!” Unknown Papi got irritated and asked me why I was saying that to him when he wasn’t even eating (I guess if he were eating it would have made perfect sense). I had to explain that I was addressing his progeny. She obviously gets that habit from his side of the family. I jest.
That’s it for me!

I Comment Therefore I Am
by UnknownMami on September 27, 2010
Back to normal programming…sort of. Normally on Mondays I do a post called, “I Comment Therefore I Am”, where I put together a post consisting of comments I’ve left on other blogs. I haven’t done it for a couple of weeks because life got in the way. Today’s post is going to be a little different. It is going to be a celebration of comments left on my blog.
It may seem strange to blog about the difficulties I’m having with my pregnancy, but it was either that or not blog at all because I tend to write about what is affecting me at the moment. The internet can be a place full of mean “Anonymous” people leaving behind spiteful little comments, but fortunately in my experience the blogging corner of the internet is inhabited by supportive and kind people leaving comments that have helped me feel embraced and cared about. In the past two weeks the comments left on my blog have made me cry, smile, hope, and laugh. There have been far too many left for me to share them all. Today, I’m highlighting a few that made me chuckle because I find that humor sustains me through even the most difficult of times.
On my Fragmented Fridays post, I asked if any of you had any jokes to share. Some of you did…
AngelCel shared a one-liner she came across on Facebook…

Do you give good comment? Wanna play along? Go forth, spread the comment love, and turn it into a post (I keep a draft post open while I read blogs throughout the week). Recycle, reuse, and reduce my friends; it’s the wave of the future.
Oh and feel free to comment, otherwise how will I know that you exist.
If you play along please link back and/or post the button below. Spread the love, spread the love! You can grab the button code from my sidebar.
