Sick...and tired...

Not of being pregnant...just plain sick and tired!!! I had been feeling so great that I thought maybe I'd skate through without the morning sickness...nope. Two days ago I got the queasies at work, ended up sick twice, twice yesterday and kept thinking to myself 'I don't know how the girls who are sick ALL day for MONTHS do it. I'm still loving every moment of this experience, but its still no fun throwing up!!

I kept reading how important it is to find your 'trigger'-what makes you sick. Yesterday I realized the more I stared at my computer, the worse I felt. Through reading online, I realized that computers are actually a big contributor to being sick. Between the bright monitor and the 'strobe effect' that it has, it can make you sick. I also kept reading how good ginger is for the tummy...yuck!! I had one of the ginger preggie pops the other day...definitely contributed
to the queasies!! Anyway, yesterday I thought of ginger snap cookies. Mark was so great- he got me comfy in bed yesterday and ran to the store. He came back with 7-up, chicken noodle soup, animal crackers, and ginger snaps!!

Today I adjusted the brightness on the computer, taken some extra breaks from it and have munched on ginger snaps and I am WAY better! Thank goodness!

I have been SO tired the past few days...but a few extra naps never hurt!!

Everything is officially marked for the garage sale...all 5 years of accumulated stuff that was cluttering the soon to be nursery! Now as soon as we get the room cleared out and stuff sold, the sooner we can start decorating!!!! Say a little prayer for our sale to go well please..we've got lots to get rid of!!!
