Sick..................

I have been super sick. I still don't feel well even though I am finally on the mend. I hate how slow I recover. It's seems to be even slower since I'm pregnant. I just want to feel well!!! I have so much to do. I have three banner orders and two of them are Thanksgiving! Plus, I still have a couple gifts to finish. I'm hping I can get a lot more accomplished this week and the next. First priority is the banners and then the Christmas gifts. I might have to buy some gifts instead of making them. Sigh. We shall see.... I hate my health right now! I hate how it changes everything. It's hard enough to live when I'm not sick with a sinus infection and a bad cough, but when you add it on it makes life so much harder. I've been dying to paint.... I've been regulated to reading and watching tv like there is ever anything on tv. I finally was able to draw out the cornucopia on the one banner today, and it made me sooo tired, bleary eyed, and dizzy not to mention making my headache even worse. Sigh. At least it's drawn.... That's the hard point.

On a happy note, my mom will be here tomorrow evening!!!!! So thrilled!!! I asked her if she could cut and ready a couple of banners for me, and she said sure. Yay! I need all the help I can get right now. lol Oh, Tuesday I have a Chelsea bag class! Can't wait to learn how to make it! It's a backpack. Anyway, I hope I can make it through without feeling too horrible, but at least my mom will be there to help me if I feel like I'm going to pass out.

Ben bought me How to Train Your Dragon!!!!! I love love love that movie! It even had the extra little short with it, too. Such a nice surprise. I just figured we would rent it from RedBox. lol

I'm about to watch another movie I got from Amazon Unbox. And then t bed I go. I will probably go to bed before the movie is finished. lol But that's ok. We can finish it tomorrow. :-)

Sick

Thursday evening I got sick. It was that sudden. I took a nap, and when I woke up I was coughing and coughing and my throat was sore. Then I started sneezing and blowing my nose that night. Crazy. My heart rate has been faster b/c of not feeling well so I hope the baby is fine. I'm sure he is, but it's still there in the back of my mind - is it affecting him??? :-)  So I've just been resting, reading, and watching movies. I need to paint some stuff so I'm hoping to work on it tomorrow. Oh, I have another banner order. It's a Thanksgiving one like mine. I need to prep that banner and start working on my other 2 banner orders. I'm thankful to have some orders. :-) I need to get the Thanksgiving ones out SoOn! That's my goal for this week. I hate being sick. It's causes such a wrench in my plans.... Sigh. Oh, well.

My nerve pain has been so bad. The baby is in the perfect spot to increase my pain. Plus, he's been kicking a lot around my j-tube making it hurt even more and bleed a lot more, too. I'm so ready for him to be out, but I want him to wait so he will be a healthy baby.

I've been reading a book entitled Babywise. A friend reccommended it, and it is so good. It has so much good advice! I also ordered an electric breastpump. I hope breastfeeding turns out to be easy in the sense of having enough milk and enough calories in it. We'll see very soon.

My mom will be here in a week!!!!!! Can you believe it?! I'm so excited! I hope the baby comes a couple weeks early so Mom can be around 2 weeks after the baby is born. I will need help then.

We aren't moving to Georgia till the beginning of January, but Ben will be off in the middle of December so we can get things done. The trip should be way easier on me at that time. So the baby's first Christmas will be in Texas. :-)

I have so much to tell you guys, but I'm super dizzy right now. Plus, a bad headache so I will talk to you later.
