The Simple Woman's Daybook
Outside my window.....darkness and sweet, slow, steady, soaking rain
I am thinking.....that I have never dealt with this much morning sickness in a pregnancy...ever.
I am thankful for......the fact that I am so sick. Means health growing baby resides within.
I am wearing....sick clothes. Sweat pants with a sweat shirt...socks, no shoes. Hair all contained within a clippie.
I am remembering......that I took Benadryl to help with the nausea but it only worked for about half an hour.
I am going......to not think about how nauseated I am right now and not think about how I have not run in days.
I am reading......how not to be nauseated in pregnancy.
I am hoping.......this will end very soon.
I am hearing.......steady rain on a tin roof and a whole bunch of kids all in one room having the time of their life and fighting sleep.
Noticing that......I am not a very productive or functional person right now. And that the baby over on the side bar is looking alot more like a baby instead of like a scary, alien type mass of tissue. Still a little foreign looking though.
Pondering these words......the only thing I'm pondering right now is how not to puke.
From the kitchen.....disgustingness.
Around the house.....smells that contain all kinds of nastiness and lead to yet more nausea.
One of my favorite things......the 2nd trimester.
From my picture journal.....
The lawn mower currently won't start so this is how they busied themselves a few days ago. They thought it so hysterically funny that cars were actually stopping, considering this a road block. Most vehicles actually went around it to avoid running over it. When the few and far between vehicle came through they would all hide and roll in laughter as drivers debated on whether to run over the new obstacle in the road. It only got bigger and taller as they continued to pile mounds and mounds of grass on top of what's already there.

Oh how I feel your pain. Sadie's pregnancy was the worst by far. She is the only one that I threw up with. Fun times. Fun times. Chewing gum helped. Those sea sick bands worked too. Perhaps it's twin girls...
As bad as I feel for you, I still had to laugh at your post. It's the 2nd best thing to sitting there beside you laughing with you! I had the same thought as Table for Seven about twin girls! Wow! I laughed even more visualizing the cars slowing for a bunch of grass. Yep, that would be the Bettis children!!!!!!! Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..........Love you so much and stil would love to take your sickness for you.
We did the same thing they did in the picture while growing up. Only we did it with snow one time, and rotten pears from our pear tree the other time.
