Like Sisyphus

I'm nothing if not persistent.

I hang onto this blog, even though everyone I know has migrated their daily thoughts onto Facebook.

I like Facebook as well, but sometimes you need the anonymity of your own personal blog. And a forum in which to write full postings that aren't limited to tiny little blurbs of material.

So I'm still posting away, even though I think about 5 people out there still read this. It's very 2003 of me, of course.

But I don't care! In a way, it's like getting back to basics.

Back when I first started this blog, nobody read it, but it was a way for me to get my thoughts out there. It was a simpler time. And it is again, in a way.

What am I up to these days? Well, mostly bouncing around on this ball that the Husband bought me:

This thing does wonders for pregnancy-induced sciatica.

I'm almost 8 months along now, counting down the weeks and days until our little bundle of joy joins us (God willing).

The only thing that alleviates the back pain is this ball.

Like the boulder that Sisyphus was condemned to roll up the hill forever.

We're still here! Don't forget to come back with baby news. Sorry about the pain... nobody tells you how painful the last couple of months can be. Hang in there.

I'm still here too.

Best of luck in the next few months.

How could you micro-blog on Facebook anyway? You have to have a real name for Facebook, and you are teahouseblossom (+1).

I still read. Good luck with the baby.

The faithful are with you. Don't forget us when the baby arrives.

You don't know me, but I enjoy reading you. Keep it up! :-)

It's fun to go back and read old entries too. And I've heard walking really helps, especially later on. Good luck, you're almost to the finish line!

I'm still reading. Though I don't comment as much as I used to. Trying to get better about that though.

8 months! Whoa--I didn't realize baby would be here so soon. In time for Thanksgiving?! You've no clue who I am, and I really don't even recall how I came across your blog, but a couple of years (at least) later, I still come visit! So don't go away. I don't Facebook, and probably never will, but would love to stay in touch with you via this blog. Wishing you well in these last weeks! So well worth it!
