16 Weeks!!!!!

Today it's official...I'm 16 weeks pregos.

I just had my check up yesterday and things are going just fine. I'm still not feeling 100% so I'm on a 5mg of prednisone to keep the nausea in check. Last Friday was a horrific day. I worked a night shift and was not feeling well most of the night. As soon as I got home at 5am and was feeling horrible - I couldn't keep anything down until after 1pm that afternoon. Let's just say I had a bad run in with breakfast potatoes that took me 45 minutes to make and then about 30 seconds for them to resurface. But I did manage to devour a delicoius ice cream cone from a small town dairy bar. Just a little quaint town a few miles from where we live where all the high school kids go to during lunch since they can't drive off of school property during school hours.


So, with feeling so ill lately my love for cooking has taken a back burner. I have no energy to cook or even drive to the grocery store. My laundry has been sitting on our laundry room floor for almost 2 weeks now and the piles continue to grow. At one point they were separated by colors, now there is a white pile and a pile of all the other colors in one. Our dog can barely get through to his food and water. I feel so bad for him....so on my next day off, I HAVE to do laundry....and pack the rest of the house, because we are now down to 24 days until we close on the house. Which in terms of my work schedule and my husbands we will have about 5 days to pack everything and clean....Stressing!!!!!


But on top of it all, I'm 16 weeks and no belly. No little baby bump. But I'm okay with that. During my check up my Dr. thinks that I won't show very much since I've been having a lot of back pain which means I'll carry the baby towards my back. Yay for me right? Can you see it now, the epidural not working and me screaming in pain because of the back pain....oh I can't wait!!!


But I'm still working out at the gym and teaching about 3 classes a week, and now that the weather is starting to get nice again, I went for a run with my husband and our dog, Cutter. He's a Labrodoodle - more lab than doodle :) We have a 5k race planned for the evening that we close on our house. A great stress releaver and better yet, both sets of in-laws are joining us too! It's truly a family affair.


Until next time...enjoy the sun, enjoy the rain, enjoy life....

I've Got This

I've been silent for quite some time from this blog. At times I don't always know what to say and don't always want to have negative things going on to write about. However, at the same time I am so tired of having to be fake and being "OK" all the time. I'm not perfect, and I'm doing better. Some days are better than others and some days are even great. I'm so happy at where I am at these days and I am feeling so accomplished for so many things. At the same time, there are days where I feel like I'm thrown back and have to face everything head on all over again. I'm learning that my former extended family doesn't belong to me any more, especially now that there is another girl in A's life. I need to allow for her and A and his family to start their own memories and start developing whatever relationship is going to happen. I absolutely adore them and will always care about them. Seeing pictures of the lake, and the pontoon makes me m...

Catching up

It's been awhile since my last post but life has seen to be keeping me busy. The holidays were fine as usual and I was able to celebrate with a few friends. I still can't remember to write 2016 on my checks. I'm getting into the groove of teaching 3 classes a week at Vital Fit Club, which Racquetball Plus. My life has literally come in full circle. Because of how everything ended in my last communications position I've decided to look at new career options.  My self-esteem is so low on being able to complete anything correctly I just need to find my new niche. Every year in January I always ask myself why I live here in Minnesota, where winter is half the year!?! Oh well. Someday I will live in a warm state. If I try some spiralizing I will post pictures. Hope everyone has a great week and take a few minutes each day to reflect, center your body, and take a few relaxing breaths. 🎎

I wonder if.....

I wonder what my life would be like if I'd never met him. I wonder if my thoughts about myself and the world would have changed if.i had only been stronger. I wonder why life turned out this way. Why was I the one with the cheating backstabbing husband. I want to move on and find a way to see the good. But putting on the face every morning is becoming exhausting. Stop living in the past I was told. If you do then you won't be happy. However until the pain and betrayals gone I fear this is my life. Looking at him makes me ill.  Hearing his voice curdels my stomach and knowing I created a second human with him only makes it worse. He met someone - someone who he thinks it's going to be serious with. Good for him. Maybe I'm upset that we hadn't resolved all our issues and now it's about him and becoming a better person for himself and K, and the new girl. He said, we obviously weren't meant to be together then why did you ask me to marry you. People say, t...
