Pig Pen!
I'm writing in this pukey green color...b/c that sums up how I've been feeling. GROSS I haven't had much energy lately...hence not writing anything in my journal....I just feel like complete and totaly CRAP. It is driving me insane! I have always felt that Shawn and I are pretty 50/50 when it comes to the housework and what not....however I've realized that that is SO NOT the case! Since I have had the wonderful Morning Sickness...I have TRIED to do some house cleaning when I have the energy...in the mist of vomiting while cleaning....my house totally disgusts me now....it is in such a need of cleaning .... it hasn't been dusted in FOREVER....the bathroom is just gross, everything in that place makes depressed. I am tired of being sick, I know the boys are tired of me being sick....but I just want to scream.....HELLO, can somebody actually PICK UP AFTER THEMSELVES?!?? Would it KILL YOU to actually CLEAN something and DO IT RIGHT?!?! Not just shove things in places so it "appears clean" but in all actuality, the mess is just hidden, sort of.....UUUGH.....ok I don't like to bitch, I hate how I sound right now, so I'm going to stop this entry now.....I'm going to TRY and find something that doesn't repulse me for lunch, and hope to keep it down.

UUGH!

Another day.....some more puke! Monday night was scary...Noah was running a fever of 103.6 and nothing was seeming to help...I was up all night giving him his medicine, cold baths, making him drink fluids, and giving him popsicles. The fever finally broke, and although we both were exhausted Tuesday ...he was doing much better. I stayed home from work to monitor him and was ready for that fever to go back on the rise....luckily it didn't. However I wasn't feeling so hot....actually I felt like complete and total CRAP! I spent a lot of the day in the bathroom .... hurling up anything and everything, and then when that was gone...it was time to dry heave. Poor Noah...my little sickling, walked in the bathroom on one of my many trips rubbed my back, and said "Mommy you sick?"  ~ yeah honey, mommy's sick! My house needs so much attention right now, that THAT is beginning to make me sick too! When I have the energy I TRY to do something, like yesterday I washed dishes, and made lasagna.....that was about all I could muster up. I am pregnant...NOT TOTALLY HELPLESS....so why do I feel so useless 1/2 the time....it's like I'm totally down for the count here....I am nauseas all day long, sometimes not as much as others, but nauseas all day none the less. It never goes away!! I have to literally think for ever on what might actually sound good to eat....what can I put in my mouth that doesn't immediately make me want to vomit. Not that it really matters, b/c I end up throwing up anyways. I feel like such a bad wife and mother.....I'm supposed to be able to handle this no problem...I've been through it before....but I am SO TIRED, and NAUSEAS, and I am constantly THROWING UP!! I mean I want to be pregnant, so I'm not complaining about all this...I just want to be able to do other things as well...like clean, and have some energy.....I really hope that happens soon!

Wrong Side?
Oh yeah just wanted to make a little note here......when I lay down I feel better...UNLESS I lay on my left side....then I get sick!! Crazy huh? Laying on my back, or my right side, I'm ok...and occationally I can lay on my belly...but not really often, b/c that bothers me too. But If I switch to my left side....I'm sick ...right now!! Hmmmm, wonder if that means anything?!

Will this sickness EVER go away?

Ok so I've had this annoying twitching thing going on with my left eyelid since Friday...I thought it would go away after I got some sleep or something....but here it is Monday afternoon and IT'S STILL TWITCHING!!! I don't know what the deal is!

Let me catch you up on what else was going on over the weekend......Friday night we took little Shawn to his wonderful (not) weekend visits with his mom. I tried to get a hold of my mother in law, Janice, to see if she had dinner plans. Since we were in the area, we were going to stop by and take her to dinner.....but we got the machine, so I left a message. We went to Cracker Barrel, and MAN did Noah pack away some food!! He had 2 HUGE pancakes, bacon, my entire helping of mashed potatoes, and Shawn's entire helping of green beans....then as soon as we got in the car, he said he wanted MORE PANCAKES!! He must be going through a growth spurt or something! After dinner we went shopping and got Jalynn some really cute clothes for her birthday. Then we headed home....we were both pretty tired, it was a nice evening. Saturday morning....I felt like CRAP!!!!! I could hardly move, I was so sick, all I wanted to do was sleep I was soooo dizzy, and nauseas! I finally made myself get a bath and get ready to go to a friends housewarming party....and I actually started to feel better. We ended up having a good time, I felt great once we got to the party. Noah was having a blast with all the kids, and there home was absolutely beautiful! We ended up staying until about 12:30 or so, I was the DD home...I'm used to that! Then Sunday was AWFUL!! I was sick ALL DAY LONG, and it didn't let up at all! From the moment I woke up to the minute I went to bed for the night I was feeling like crap! I puked a few times, and TRIED to have enough energy to do some dishes or something....in the middle of doing the dishes, I ran to the bathroom and puked....I went back to the kitchen afterwards to try and finish them, but it was no use, the longer I stood the sicker I got...so it was back off to the couch. Shawn went grocery shopping, and then to pick up little Shawn all by himself...since it's about an hour drive, I hate making him go alone....I don't like long drives by myself....but there was NO WAY I was going to being able to handle a car ride....I get car sick really easily while pregnant.....everything gets me sick anymore! But Hey I'M PREGNANT....so YEAH!!! I got a call last night around 8:30 from this drs. office that I put my resume in for a part time position in the evenings and Sat. mornings. We could use the extra money.....but I'm not sure how I'll be with extra hours. When I put my resume in, morning sickness and extreme fatigue hadn't set in yet.....I hope I get this job, and I really hope that I can handle it!!! B/c the money would be REALLY NICE!! So my fingers are crossed!!

This morning I felt like crap, and had to drag myself out of bed....threw up...and then came into work.....where once I arrived I ran to bathroom...and later on threw up again! Gotta love it!!
