Interview # 3

Well, Spencer's off for one last interview. He's interviewing at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo tomorrow. They are a brand new medical school. As in, Spencer will be part of their very first class if he attends there. His interview goes from 7:30 am to 4 pm! Apparently they'll have a combination of MMIs (multiple mini interviews), which is what he did at Central, and a traditional inteview, which is what he did at Wayne. So I'm thinking about him and praying that the interview goes well. Part of the day will be tours of the medical school, and I think they are doing a tour of Kalamazoo, as well.

I didn't call in to see if there was work today, because I had to drive him to the airport this afternoon. They probably wouldn't have had anything, anyway. I've hit a dry spell this week. No work since Monday, and it doesn't sound like there will be anything for me tomorrow either. Oh, well. I'll just try to be extra productive at home or something. It'll make my weekend alone seem longer though. I do have a friend coming over for dinner tomorrow night though, so that will be fun! Her husband is out of town for the weekend as well.

I hate it when Spencer has to leave. Last night I got all emotional about it. Last time he left and this time (both during the pregnancy) I got kinda mad at him for leaving the night before he went. And then I felt bad for being mad at him and cried. haha. I'm going to blame it on the pregnancy hormones, because I don't think I'm usually that ridiculous. But maybe I am. I am glad that he's had three interviews, and we keep praying that something will work out for next fall. I know the Lord has a plan for us, I just want to know what it will be. :)

Anyway, I dropped Spencer off at the airport and then came back home. Spencer will be renting a car, so he took the GPS with him. I didn't even get lost. Yay! I'm pretty sure I won't have a problem getting back to the airport to get him on Sunday...  Once I got home I gave Mom a call, and that was nice to chat for a while. I should call her more often. I'm glad that Spencer will get to spend some time with them this weekend, and it's Mom's birthday on Sunday, so it's nice he can be home for that. Kinda -- he flies home Sunday. I'm so excited to live close to them in a couple of months! I'm sad that we'll still be pretty far from (my) Dad, but we'll be close enough to Spencer's parents and Brigham to visit them pretty often.

I should also call Caroline more often. We had a great chat this week when I called to ask her for advice on buying maternity jeans. Which brings me to my next big announcement. I'm wearing maternity pants! haha. I'm not really "showing" yet, but my pants were getting too snug for comfort and I figured I'd have to get some eventually. So I got some. And they are so comfy. I tried Target, but they didn't have anything long enough for me in their pitifully small maternity section (two choices for pants!), so I went to Motherhood Maternity in the mall. They didn't have a lot available in longs, but they had a few pairs to choose from. I ended up getting two that are identical because I liked the cut, they only came in one color, and they were the least expensive ones there. I like them a lot, and I feel much better about myself in these than when I squeeeeeze into my normal jeans. By the way, I'm 16 weeks today!! I'd take a picture to add, but there's no bump to show off yet.

Now, on to the most challenging part of my day: dinner! I never know what to make and I tend to eat better when Spencer's home than when I'm by myself. Some nights I get to this pathetic point where I'm so hungry, but I feel like there's nothing good to eat, and Spencer has to rescue me by making something. haha. So, I better go find something before I get to that point. I know we have fish and ground hamburger and nasty chicken in the freezer...
