Totally a case of pregnancy-related retardo

So...pretty much I am totally pregnancy-related retarded. I should be stopped.

This is how my morning went:

Drove to the store to fax some papers...

forgot the papers...realized halfway there....

turned around...

ran stop sign I had just gone through (totally by accident)...threw my hands up in surprise....

look over...there's a police man at the other stop sign....wait for it....wait for it....lights flash....

I pull over....he could tell I was feeling quite retarded (and he saw my reaction when I realized what I was doing (hands flailing)) and I have a perfect record....NO TICKET...thank goodness...

got home...got papers...

back on my way to the store....

wrong fax # (pregnancy-related dyslexia)...had to call the company again....Isaac wandered off in the process and I could not find him...whole store on alert.

Found Isaac....fax complete...couldn't wait to go home.

Maybe I should consider confinement for the duration of pregnancy?

This (as in above) is the reason they used to MAKE women stay hidden away until it was all over.

Seriously!

LOL!!!! Pregnancy brains suck big time! I swear my brain is like oatmeal!

You're so lucky to have those Tri-Cities cops! I got a ticket last year for going 35 in a 30.... I'm still extremely bitter about it. Spokane cops suck!

My brain is still not the same as it was before I had kids but nothing is as bad as pregnancy brain!
At least it makes for some good stories!

Way to go MEL! Take a nice, deep breath and start again. Aren't you glad you're not the only one who has had days like that. Glad you found Isaac!

I tell people all the time that I get dumber with every kid. I'm not sure if I say that for their benefit or mine -- as if to reassure myself that I wasn't always this brain-dead!

That's great! I wish that I had an excuse!
