Circles.

Almost 32 weeks, which means we have just 6 weeks left to go. There's a lot to be done in that small window of time! Aside from the regular day-to-day stuff to be taken care of, I'm finding myself walking in circles picking things up and putting them away.. Trying to clean, though right now that's like spitting into the wind with two little dogs and a 5 year old tearing the place apart as quickly as I fix it up. I want to reorganize closets, deep clean carpets, pack bags and set up baby stuff - and then I realize that I can't do it all, so I need to prioritize and my brain just isn't capable right now. I'm firmly stuck in nesting mode, but it feels strangely unproductive. Like I'm just not getting enough done. 

Everyone's freaking out over the 'swine flu' pig sniffles thing, and since I'd already lost my mind months back and ordered bottles of hand sanitizer, my only additional precaution was to buy a net cover for the infant car seat supposedly to keep bugs away. Of course, I give less of a crap about the mosquitos and more about the nutty people who randomly touch babies. Seems like you can't be too careful right now, so the paranoia is justified. Right? Right?
