Pregnancy Post

Aren't you all excited to hear for the next 6 1/2 months about how being pregnant affects my life? I knew it.
I'll start with the flu. Being pregnant and having the flu is hell. (not a swearword when used in that context) (why does that sound like something Dwight would say?)
Pregnant=eat
Flu=don't eat
I'm so confused. What do I do? I throw-up. I shake from the trauma. I take baths all day. I sit on the couch and can't get up. If it weren't for Bryan I think I'd be dead.
What's even better than having being pregnant and having the flu.... having your sewer pump break so your whole house smells like POO. Awesome. That really helped the situation.
It does get better... the furnace in the basement also broke so it is an astoundingly comfortable 62 degrees down there. We have no space heaters - my very first order of business tomorrow. After calling the plumber.
I'm not proud of this very sarcastic whiny post. I do have many many blessings. I just don't feel like expressing them right now. ( :

After reading your post, I said to Denzil, "I love, Marie"...tell it how it is girl...I don't mind!! Good luck, I hope tomorrow is a better day...tell Brian to take the day off :).

Yep. It's healthy to just get it all off your chest...right before sucking it up and counting your blessings. I feel like I've been in the "getting it off my chest" phase for two months...so I know how it is.
Hope you get over the flu fast!
