Baby: Nest Fever

She's everywhere, she's everywhere!

Suddenly, like Goosey-Goosey Gander, The Lovely Sophia is upstairs and downstairs, in the laundry room, at the kitchen sink, dusting off the furniture, scrubbing toilets, and generally going overboard with the cleaning-up and the readying.

Some say humans have the same nesting instinct as other organisms when they're about to give birth. Others say that's hogwash, perhaps even poppycock. Molly says it's just what you do to stave off insanity when you've been pregnant forever and are just sick of it. I've been teasing TLS about it all day. She says it ain't nesting; the place just needs a good cleaning.

What do you all think? What has been your experience with the so-called nesting instinct?

May be the fact that the place is a pigsty has something to do with it and it became rather impossible to walk through the damn hallways with that enormous stomach - it just doesn't feet there any longer bec of all that crap that is piling along the wall??? Nah, just kidding, I've been to your place and it is indeed very tidy! May be she just has all this harbored internal energy that she's subconsciously storing to be able to apply it to the baby-caring duties, because, well, she doesn't have the baby yet!!!

Stay strong TLS, and Derek, instead of being an ass start appreciating TLS's efforts, you have nothing on her! Man, you can't even carry a child in your belly, what are you good for!!!!!

But, what do I know, i have never been pregnant, nor i clean my house...

...sending my love to both, TLS and D
