I am currently 19 weeks and 2 days pregnant. Our baby is due on 11/29/03. We do not know if it is a or . I normally work in NYC, but due to a compressed nerve problem (aka baby) I now work from home because the 2 hour commute each way is too much and very painful.
I have a cat named Beemer. She is not that independant, just feed me once a day type cat at all. She is a very baby-like cat who needs lots and lots of attention. But I adore her. There is a photo in my profile along with wedding vendor info.

This is cool!
Name: Karen Age: 33, will be 34 in August. Occupation: Medical Transcriptionist (I get to work at home, yay!). DH: Kevin. Occupation: Sergeant for NYPD. Married: June 1 at Riviera in Massapequa. Honeymoon: Bar Harbor Maine, Acadia National Park, Newport Rhode Island.
I've got more than enough pictures posted on LIW!!
I was born in Astoria but grew up in Patchogue, where I'm still living. DH lives on the Yonkers border in the Bronx, but there is a situation with the house and I can't move in with him yet. Long story involving construction and allergies. So.... we're still living apart and it's a definite strain, but we're hanging in there. We're both looking forward to being together soon. From there we're going to look for a house probably in the Northport area.
We're not TTC, and I'm not sure I ever want children....
I have an 11 year old Pomeranian named Tasha. She's my little sweetie!
My hobbies are counted cross stitch, reading, gardening and cooking. DH and I like to spend QT cuddling and catching up on things, since we don't get nearly enough time together.

Re: Getting to know each other- facts and photos
I could see where it would be difficult to stand up - I've been watching Surf Girls If I ever did stand up I would probably get really excited too and then I would get bonked
I'll let you know when we plan a trip to SD.
