NAHU Expo!

I went to the NAHU expo this morning and only had time to stay for three speakers and got two CE credits. It was a good talk, fairly right wing for my rather liberal tastes but it's amazing how a guy can go around and get people to listen to him when he only points out one side of the issue and provides no solutions. Those are the folks you need to watch out for, because those are the one's that legislatures listen to.

The second speaker works in DC and has a better prospective to the way things are actually run and not such a biased view of it all. She was a great speaker and though again I didn't agree with everything she said at least with her, she knows where all the political bodies are buried. She noted that healthcare was not the kind of clear cut issue it use to be in terms of which party you belong to. She works hard with both sides of the aisle and that both sides have crackpots. She actually liked Senator Hardin's healthcare proposal.

As for work, I'm definately in slow down mode, I'm working little things here and there and returning phone calls. It seems like I'll forget about the baby for a minute and my old energy will return and then I'll stand up and go to the printer and every bone in my body reminds me that I am 25+ pounds heavier than I use to be. The baby is moving a great deal and laying in bed feels like a comfy death but I'm just waiting to drop this kid.

As for the ex, he kindly offered to take me and my son to dinner on Mom's day. But of course I could not accept it. I'm such a sucker. He also wants to take my son to small excursion on Saturday morning, which I'm allowing because I know the baby will love to pick up trash with his dad. I've got to learn to separate my emotions from my ex, he says dinner and I think we'll marry in June. What makes somebody take fifteen miles like that? I'm chucking it up to the pregnancy and I'm sticking to that. I did send him an email trying to explain that but knowing him it will make no sense to him. I don't understand how he can send me a venom filled email a week ago and then two days ago he's nice as pie. He's a psycho.
