Now there's a surprise! lol. In my defense, I have been dealing with 24/7 "morning" sickness (I'd love to find the s.o.b. who titled it that and choke them... I would have loved morning sickness!), and had a Bruce Springsteen concert to attend. So, some decent reasons to slack on the blogging.
And even though I have missed enough entries now to not be eligible for any prizes, I am going to spend some time this evening making some more blog entries and catch up. I'll be like the Jamaican bob sled team. I am gonna crash, and won't win, but I'll pick up my bob sled and run over the finish line.
Or something like that.
Anyways, a quick update away from the challenge while I'm at it? Wayne is currently in route to Africa for a work trip. Hopefully this one is a one-off trip and not an ongoing trip. I don't mind the work trips, but the international ones are difficult, especially when you are sick. So many hours where you cannot get in touch with them. I guess if the first trimester had been easier, it wouldn't have been as big of a concern. His last trip to Mongolia, I couldn't even drive myself up the street to the hospital or a 10 minute drive to my doctors office. Things like that first off, make you really miss your partner. But secondly it makes you really appreciate how awesome your in-laws are.
Anyways, this week I'll be 12 weeks and nearly out of the first trimester. Since Friday, I haven't vomited and that makes me nearly do dances of joy!! The dizziness from the low blood pressure still comes and goes, but it doesn't seem AS bad when I'm actually able to eat AND keep it down. Last night, I had "fourth" meal, followed by a midnight snack. Considering the inability to eat much over the last few weeks, it was a well welcomed change! Today I was able to go shopping with my friend, Erin, and stopped in at our cousins house for a cuppa and visit. Was really nice to be out of the house and not be thinking the whole time "I wanna go home to bed". So, I'm quite happy to be feeling better, and am certainly hoping this trend continues! I've only been working on average of two days a week for the last few weeks. I have been getting really sick of being home and feeling alone all day, not being able to eat, which means little energy and just feeling like total shit.
Ok, enough whinging.... I feel great today, and am actually looking FORWARD to working tomorrow!! I will now take wagers on how long it takes for someone to change that tomorrow? haha.
Ok, off to finish some MKR and then catch up on some blogs. Three blogs people.. count them... THREE blogs to come tonight.
Well, I'll try. lol.
