My mind has left me

I have a story to tell. I have noticed more and more with this pregnancy my absent mindedness. Forgetfulness, or just plain lack of attention span and so on. Today a good one happened. I was not sure I wanted to share it, but I came out of the bathroom laughing so hard, my co worker said I needed to share it.
I got up, got ready this morning and put my clothes on. I noticed the my undies where not fitting quite like they use to, but I figured, oh that is because my butt is getting bigger. I did make sure I had them on correct, you know front and back. With the new tagless tags, they wear off and it is hard to tell at times. I did not think much of if and went on with the rest of my morning. I went to go to the bathroom and noticed that the normal pretty shiny V.S. wording was looking right at me, it was not turn outward and I did not have to fold the hem back to look at it. I thought, how very odd. What is wrong with these undies, I look them over and check them out, to see what is up with these undies, then it HITS me.
I HAVE MY UNDIES INSIDE OUT!! I just bust up laughing. What do you do? Do you switch them around or do you just continue to wear your undies inside out all day long. WEll, I opted to just leave them. So now every time I go to the restroom, which is quite often, I just crack up laughing.
I did not know that your undies where different inside out. if you don't believe, go a day with wearing your undies inside out and you tell me if there is a difference in they way they wear.
This is just another story of me not being all there.

My sister did tell me that when you have kids you lose your brain cells, well I am beginning to believe her and totally understand it. On any normal circumstance or day before I was pregnant, I would of double checked to make sure the tag was in the correct spot, and looked for the fading tagless black print, I would of taken the undies off and wondered, what is not right with these, but not any more. Now, my body is collecting more poundage just over night and I am just happy I can stand up to get my undies on, you know. I use to be able to see my feet to put one in the left hole and one in the right. Not anymore, now I bend over as far as I can and just HOPE I get the foot in the right spot on the first try and I try not to have to use the counter to prevent myself from falling. AH, to be pregnant and the joys of a growing babe inside your belly.
I did have someone say to me, " you know right now your baby's brain is developing so fast and it is a crucial time for it to develop." WEll, no wonder I can find things and I wear my undies the wrong way, Baby is taking all my brain cells.
Going back to what my sister said, Having kids equals no brain cells. Well, I am going further then that, they start taking the brain cells when they are still inside you. I am only pregnant and I am losing my brain cells. My goodness. :)

I hope this gave you a good laugh today. The next time you use the restroom or have to hold onto a counter to put your undies on, think of me and my fading braincells. (At lease I will know Landon will be smart, right?)
Have a great day and enjoy laughter. It is the best medicine!!!

Jo...this made me laugh so hard! It brought back so many memories and it is GREAT to hear you having some of the same probs...well acutally, i can't say i ever did what you did exactly...but trust me, there were other things.

And just think...you have 6 or 7 more weeks to go...getting bigger, more brain cells leaving...oh but it is ALL worth it! :)

Too funny! I can't honestly say I ever did this but I'm so glad you shared it with us! I will be thinking about this all day now. Thanks for such a good laugh :-)

Eventually you might feel smart again but I wouldn't count on it!!
