Me whining! Feel free to skip

I am going to buy new shoes tonight because the eights I bought don't fit anymore. Normally I wear a seven. We aren't allowed to wear flip flops at work and right now they are the only thing that I can squeeze my feet into. My boss said just to get nice looking house shoes, but that seems tacky. Not that I dislike tacky...
Also, I don't know if I mentioned it, but the water retention is causing carpal tunnel in both my hands. I have to ask for help with a lot of things. Patrick is thrilled because I don't ask for help, ever. It's a thing I have and so now he feels good cause he can help me. My hands are constantly either numb or hurting, which is really frustrating. I have a glove for the right hand because it's worse, but it even wakes me up at night (although I would be up for the bathroom either way). But, Patrick asked yesterday if I knew it would be this difficult if I would have done it anyway and yeah I totally would have. I really have had an easy pregnancy until the last few weeks and I only have until June 11 (allegedly).
I went to see Avengers and loved every minute of it. Well the hands are giving out, but I wanted to check in with everyone.

Hang in there sweetie - you are in the final stretch! Almost done and then you get a bouncing baby boy as a reward for your perserverance.

yeah! corny I know - but that thought got me thru many a pregnacy induced sleepless night.

I've heard that "sturdy" and "comfortable" are the two keys with shoes when you're pregnant, in order to avoid back pain. This is completely anecdotal information, BTW, from my mother. But she swore it was true. I hope you found something suitable...

June isn't that far away, you can do it.

Good luck trying to find shoes.
