I guess it is my turn

To be sick. Blah. When I woke up for Cam's night feeding, I realized that my throat was sore. And then later this morning when he got up at 8, it had gotten even more so. Now my ears are itchy, and my nose runny :(.

How unfortunate since I have really begun to get the energy and motivation to get stuff done. Hopefully it just skates right by me and doesn't get much worse than this. I am doing craft show this Saturday for my home based business and I also have a show that night for it. So, I cannot be sick.

Speaking of this craft show. I will also be selling used books there for my Breast Cancer 3-day. This is huge for me, cause let's just say I LOVE BOOKS. It is really hard for me to get rid of them. But I keep telling myself it is for a good cause. Of course I will keep all the books that do not sell. I have dreams of owning a house that one day has an office that is all shelves, and my books get the proper display they deserve. Instead of being stored away in bins in the smallest darkest corner room of the basement. We will see.

The Last Blog

for NaBloPoMo that is. I feel kinda sad about it. I feel impressed that I actually did it the entire month.

I am not going to kill myself over blogging everyday in December, since it is December after all. But, I certainly hope that the habit of blogging each day has stuck with me. I have honestly enjoyed it.

Today I got a lot accomplished at home. Still have much more to go though. But boy does it feel good to be getting somewhere. The room is cleaned out and ready for the crib and changing table to go in. I am hoping to just get it done the rest of the week. Tomorrow I want to go get the shelves I need for the new "office" downstairs. Hopefully I can talk my hubby into putting them together tomorrow night. Then Wednesday and Thursday I can organize all of the stuff and get them put away. We rearranged the furniture downstairs and put the treadmill back in the corner. We will be using that thing regularly in the next month. When I start training to start training for the 3-day walk.

Also, I need to get the basement set up for my home based business. I really want to win the 2009 trip. It is to Disney World and it is for a family of four. This means we can take our kiddos. January happens to be double point month for the trip, so I want to get my butt in gear and really start working my business. Well, to do that well, I need to get my "office" organized. I keep putting Office in quotes, because I consider an office to have a door, and well this does not. And, it is being set up in an unfinished portion of my basement, which does not make me happy. But we do not have the funds to finish that portion, so it is what it is. I am going to do everything I can to make it comfy and a great work space. Wish me luck!

Well, I am off to clean up my kitchen. The rest of my house has been neglected today while I worked on Cam's room and the basement.

Writer's Block?

I surprisingly have had no problem finding something to blog about each day. Until now. Call it writer's block maybe? I can't believe this thing is almost done and that I have almost blogged for 30 days straight! I will say it started to become somewhat of a habit. But it was much easier to blog in the morning. I am pretty tired and worn down by the evening time and it makes it hard to come up with something to say.

Tomorrow is the biggest bar night of the year, and I am excited to report that even after 2 kids, I will still be participating in the pre-thanksgiving day fun! My sis is taking my kiddos which is super cool of her, especially since she is the one hosting T-day. Don't you think!?!

I also am one of those crazies who goes shopping on Friday. But this year, I may be crazier than ever. I cannot find anyone to watch the kiddos on Thursday night/Friday morning, sooooo my BFF and I talked about it and decided to be crazy and take the kids with us anyway! Please think about us that day and wish us luck.

I guess you could say it is an obsession. Those of us who love to do it totally get it. Those who don't love it, do not get it. But my BFF and I have been doing it for I think the past 4 years. And now, it just wouldn't seem the like the start of the Holiday Season without doing it. So we are not going full out this year, we will be starting the day by heading out at 9:00am instead of 5:00am. We will shop for a few hours and then stop for lunch. Truthfully after that, we will probably be going home. I have a feeling Maddie will be done. But, I at least HAVE to go out, somewhere for a little bit.

I am also hosting a Black Friday sale for my home based business which shall remain nameless on the internet. So hopefully while I am out spending money, I will also be making money! That is what I love about my business... that I can even do that! Oh, and if you are interested in finding out what the sale entails, leave me a comment and I can figure out a way to get you the information.

This week

I haven't been feeling very well this week. I feel like the symptoms of the first and third trimester were flip flopped for me or something. I have been extremely exhausted and very very nauseated... all day. So basically I have been sleeping every time Maddie does and even when she is up I was laying around barely able to do much. She has been a doll all this week, and it was kinda nice to just sit and watch her play instead of going going going. She would come up to the couch and lift herself up and say Mommmmaaaa. in this cute sing songy voice. Like she knew I wasn't feeling well.

I think I am finally starting to feel better. I actually ate fine all day yesterday, I was still a bit nauseated and tired, but at least I could eat, and do things.

We are going out to good friends of ours today. I am actually doing a show there for my home based business (which shall remain nameless on the internet). But we are going out early and staying afterwards to have fun and hang with their kids. Should be a fun time. I am looking forward to it.

I hope all of my readers have a great weekend!
