for about the past week i've been waking up with leg cramps, very painful leg cramps. my coworker said it was a potassium deficiency. i read on WebMD's pregnancy site that potassium and calcium deficiencies can cause leg cramps. that site suggests drinking a glass of milk before bed. i was thinking about doing that until i read the warning on my prenatal vitamins: do not take with or an hour after consuming dairy products. i'll have to ask the doc about that one. so i didn't drink any milk last night and had a terrific pain in my right leg trying to get out of bed. ok, enough complaining about aches and pains.

i worked out some numbers (with some help) and i think that maybe the cloth/washable diapers will save us some money on diapers. plus they are better for the environment (although, we are probably too far gone with our poor environment. i often wonder if it really matters... i guess it does for my conscience). anyway, i'm going to run it by Cory. i'm getting more and more organized with this pregnancy. i need to stay one up on things so that i don't feel so out of control. not that i think i can control everything. however, i do know that i tend to procrastinate. the procrastination gets worse as i get piled up with things to do. and then it's a never ending cycle of worry, anxiety and then depression when i feel inept.

last night i started making to do lists and lists of questions for doctors and other people i need to talk to. i also started purging some of the junk that is collecting dust in our house. it's all going in the garage sale this weekend. that reminds me, i need to go place that ad. blog ya later.
