6 Weeks

Good afternoon!


Today I am 6 weeks along according to BabyCenter.com (which is an awesome site for any type of mother). Here's the link to this weeks progress:

On a more personal note, I haven't experienced the nausea yet but my sleep habits are changing. I am SO tired, but the slightest thing wakes me up and then I CAN NOT go back to sleep. Anyone who joined me on Facebook this morning can attest to that.

The moodiness is in full swing and tends to "swing" several times per day. I feel very sorry for my boss, coworkers, family, friends and anyone else who has the unfortunate path that crosses mine.

No real cravings at this point (despite the title). In fact, food the thought of food kind of makes me not want to eat it. I was going through my cookbook collection for our garage sale this weekend and saw a picture of Fettuccine Alfredo. Under any normal circumstance, my tummy would have been growlin' all the way to the grocery store. This time however, left me thinking that if I ever ate pasta again it would be too soon. Not nauseated, just not interested.

Speaking of garage sales, Colleen told us about the Denton County Garage Sale being held this weekend and the North Texas Fair Grounds. Anyone can get a booth and sell your junk! In my current fit of procrastination, I didn't look up the information until this morning and the last day to register was 04/29/2011. Poop. So now we are having a garage sale in the driveway! I was hoping for more foot traffic (and a little shopping myself while Jay held down the booth) and an excuse to stop at Goodwill on the way home to donate the unsold treasures. Well, I guess we can still load it up and take it in. Just not as convenient!

We've tried to go through everything for the garage sale. Since Jay is currently building me a laundry room (I'll save the details for a future post), we had to clean out the garage. Now we have a carport FILLED with stuff that we surely do not need. The goal is to combine everything that was in the garage, in the carport and in the storage unit (gasp! I know - we had more that wasn't even on site!) into a nicely labeled, organized and accessible space that fits in the front half of our garage. So far so good! I never realized how addicted I am to holiday decorations. Seriously, I have a problem. I will not admit how many stockings I had in my possession before this project. I will also not admit how many items (cringe) still had tags attached.

Sigh...

The things we do on impulse.

(moment to reflect here)

Ok, totally over it.

So we are hoping to get some extra cash and get rid of some extra junk! Hopefully we can do both.

Have a great evening! Go have a margarita for me in honor of Cinco de Mayo!
