Things that are stacked

Yay, my glucose test came back normal! Which means I don't have gestational diabetes. Which is good, because I have at least four factors that make me more likely to: I'm over 35, overweight, have a family history of diabetes, and am having a large baby. (The ultrasound nurse said he/she/it is currently presenting as developmentally about two weeks ahead of schedule.)

I've been spending the day putting things back on the shelving unit like an inverse Jenga puzzle. I know I've successfully made more room because I was able to add the yarn box to the shelves. I also did a cursory riffle through my patterns and pulled a couple dozen to go to the Bazaar, but didn't get rid of nearly as many as I could've/should've. Still, the bookcase and the sewing dummy will be able to take their new home as of this evening. Hooray for progress!

Food + Fun

Had enough energy to cook this evening (currently I'm averaging something like one day out of five) so I pulled out Fine Cooking and actually made larb. It's not in our usual set of flavors - nam pla (fish sauce) + cilantro + mint flavor combo - but it grew on me. Unfortunately, not so much for Wonderful Husband. Ah well.

And in about twenty minutes, we're actually going to the movies! And catching Iron Man 3 before it leaves the cinemas. Yes, we're that far behind on summer blockbusters. ^_^

ETA: Was NO parking available at the cinema showing Iron Man 3. So we went to another cinema, which was showing Star Trek at a convenient time. We both enjoyed it, but I think Wonderful Husband, who has at best blurry memories of the first six films, enjoyed it somewhat better than I did. I kept getting distracted by recognizing all the different scenes/motifs they were referencing. Not to mention all the scenes shot at the Getty.... :)
