Good Morning!
Today I woke up early and I dozed for a bit before finally getting up to feed the dogs. My sweet little boy is still sleeping, thankfully, so that leaves me with some time to myself so I can get a few things acomplished.So far I have moved some of his toys into the great room which is currently closed for the cold weather and pulled out some toys he hasn’t played with in quite a long time. Then I put clothes in the washer, moved towels to the dryer and fed the dogs. Started my husbands coffee, put away clean dishes and then poured husbands coffee into his thermos. I ate a bowl of cereal and now I am sitting here at the computer. I feel like I am more with it today, and hopefully I will be able to keep up the momentum as I have so much to do today.I am really behind on laundry, and I haven’t really cleaned much in the past few days - I’ve just been so exhausted. I took my son to the library yesterday and almost fell asleep sitting there - I just had nothing. Finally I got him home and I kept dozing on the couch - the poor kid just wanted to play and I wasn’t much fun at all.Today I take my son to story time at the library and it looks like I will have to sign him up for the spring session (which I think is a wonderful sign that spring is finally on it’s way!) but I don’t know if that means there will be a week or two off or if it will just continue right through. After story time I will bring him home, make lunch and continue to clean where I can. Then I have an appointment at the chiropractors for an adjustment. I am excited about this - my neck has been bothering me just a bit and I look forward to the relief I get from the adjustments.After that appointment I don’t have anything else planned for the day. I will continue to clean up and catch up. My husband goes back to work tomorrow and he needs clean laundry and I need to get my act together as far as meals and making things ready for him. I haven’t really wanted to cook lately due to the morning sickness, but I am feeling a bit better and I am forcing myself to eat, which makes me want to eat more….sometimes I still feel a little ill, but most times I am plugging away at food.My biggest cravings this time around: salad with wild Maine blueberry dressing, broccoli, turkey sandwich with pickles, homemade mac n cheese with pickles, fish, veggie subs (subway), and oranges. I can’t seem to get enough oranges. I drink orange juice and eat one or two oranges a day. I also love ice cold water with a slice of lemon or lime in it. These cravings are so different from the first time when all I could stand to eat was sweets (donuts, iced coffee, chocolate, soda) and meats. I loved burgers and chicken wings but couldn’t stand anything green during my first pregnancy. This time it is like the opposite. Interesting….
