By the time things were done and I headed to pick up Ariel from Stella's, I was dog tired. I was pretty out of it for the rest of the day. Thankfully I had leftovers for Ken and Ariel, so I didn't need to do anything for dinner.
Speaking of Stella, before my appointment we did some work on the quilt, and check it out!!!
There are still 2 borders to go around it, and then the top is pretty much finished! YAY! Here is Ariel trying it out... she makes a good size ratio device too. Haha.
Yesterday morning I was up by 7am and camped out in front of the tv. It was finally here, the big day when we all saw Obama became president of the USA. I found the whole moment moving and even pulled Ariel out of bed so I could tell her later that she watched it with me.
This morning we went to pick up my pills and at lunch I took my first one... and I was out like a light. I forgot how at first they make you really sleepy. Thankfully Ariel played and would wake me from my couch bed every so often to ask for more Cheerios.
Ken is working late tonight and several more times coming up with all the animation festivals and such. Its hard, I'll be honest, to get through everything while I am so sick. Its making me somewhat overwhelmed and sad. I often wonder why my pregnancies are so hard? Why do I get so sick? I can honestly say that I don't think I could do this again. I love my daughter and I will love this child, but I think that's it for us. It makes me sad, but I feel like I am a failure to Ariel right now. Its only 8 weeks, and I hope the rest go fast and the pills have me up and running more like my old self. I miss me... the real me.
Sorry I am such a downer tonight, hoping and praying I bounce back soon.

Hey Janet, I hope the medication helps and kicks in quickly. I feel so bad that you have been so miserable. Let me know if I can do anything to help.

Don't be too hard on yourself, you are a great mommy and Ariel I am sure knows you love her. In the big scheme of things your new little one will be here in no time and then Ariel with have a sibling and will make up for it all. :)
Praying for you.
Hey, sending you lots of love. I was really down when I was nauseated too, I think it's hard not to be. I'm praying that you'll feel better sooner rather than later...
Jay, please don't be hard on yourself about the sickness and tiredness. Ariel won't remember any of this - only when her new brother or sister arrives.
((((hugs)))) Ths too shall pass -- Rebecca is right Areil won't remeber this at all.
The quilt is looking aome!
Aww, hope you're feeling better soon! I agree with everyone else, this is just a little blip - no worries. Lovin' the quilt, too!
Hope the med works some magic for you! The quilt is lovely...and looks much bigger when Ariel is next to it! :)
Congratulations on the pregnancy, Jay! And the quilt is beautiful!
