I think I have slept less in the last week than back in my college final exam days. Between all the Zaq stuff going on... getting final things in order for the baby to get here... and working like a crazy person... I feel like I just can't catch a break. Im drowning over here... finding my feet just often enough to gasp a breath of air.

As I type this, its 6:15am... I went to bed at 2:30 am... Zaq couldn't sleep so as he got up, then went in and out of the room & house, I kept getting woken up. Finally at 4:30 he came to bed... and then I tossed and turned until 5:15 before finally caving and getting up... so far in the hour I have made coffee, an egg sandwich, responded to a plethora of emails... and am sitting on hold with paypal... YAY! Just think what Ill be able to accomplish with Im not pregnant and can get back to chugging Red Bull's like waters. Can't wait! Ill have to have a special caffeine free mommy milk stash for my late night benders, haha.

Its now 6:20am... the paypal call went nowhere but in circles and as usual they didn't tell me anything I didn't already know. Heartburn is kicking in from my coffee... and the sun is starting to come up... wow. What a day already. I think that means it can only go up from here right? RIGHT?! Oh man, I hope so... three crib sets on the agenda to finish today and no helper until tomorrow. Then more tomorrow... and the next day... ANNNNND the next day... and somewhere in here I am supposed to make time to birth a child... but we will see, she might just have to wait ;)

I wanna say thanks to everyone who has read & shared our post - I really appreciate it... Your support & kind words mean a lot. I can't quite figure out if Im a little more at ease about it all... or just more annoyed though. Reading everyone's personal stories just gets my blood boiling. It's unfair... we're supposed to be protected from things like this from happening... and between the comments here, facebook, twitter, etc... there is WAY too much of it going on... and I really hope that we can find the right lawyer to teach Best Buy a lesson... Cuz' they sure need it... its unacceptable. And from what Im hearing, this is pretty common for them... To think we packed our family with such hope and excitement to be back in Minneapolis working for a local, family centered company just one year ago... there was so much promise for growth and a long future with this company... and here we are now wondering how it is that we even got here.

But, everything happens for a reason right? Well... that's what everyone keeps telling us. So that's what we're focusing on. We're waiting to hear back from the unemployment office... most people are saying of course Best Buy will likely fight it, so we will have to go to court for that as well (or a phone hearing)... But, in the end if that works out we should be fine, then we can focus on the court case for wrongful termination. He has a phone interview on Wednesday with a popular, well known lawyer here in MPLS, and waiting on calls from a couple others. So it's looking good right now... and in the mean time, he has been looking for jobs and reaching out to connections to try to set some things up for a job after Rozzlyn is here and we're situated... So I think as of right now, we're taking all the right steps to come out of this in a more positive place than we started. One can hope...

While we wait? He makes an AWESOME Boppy cutter... we rocked it the other day - and with his help I shipped DOUBLE what I could have on my own... so I will definitely be sad to see him go back to work! Somehow - spirits are pretty high around here, and we have been enjoying our time together... lots of laughs... lots of smiles... lots of fun working together... Keep the prayers, vibes, thoughts, etc coming our way - its all appreciated :)
