Christmas Cards And Morning Sickness

I love doing Christmas Cards. And they're done, actually, just awaiting Damm's signature. But everyday I've either been working and forgot about it, or I've been at the house but overwhelmed by morning sickness. So, to those of you who should be getting a Christmas Card, it might be just a wee bit late.

So the lovely, dreaded Morning Sickness has come. In the exact same fashion it did with the Orclette. I can eat doritos. I can eat Taco Bell tacos. Damm went out and bought me sea-sickness bands and they actually seem to be helping-the smell of food isn't making me want to throw up. AND I'm re-reading Elizabeth Haydon's series. Read it while I was in the throws of nausea last time too. I seem to mark important life events by the books I read. Funny, eh?

Called out today from work. I was scheduled to close. Couldn't stand up all day, was holding out in the hopes that I would feel better. I eventually had Damm call out for me as I didn't feel capable of calling. It's my guess I'll be talked to about that, since the employee and the employee alone is supposed to call out. But maybe I should mention that they really need to communicate better. See, around 4, the time I was supposed to be working, Damm got a call from a B&N manager, inquiring where I was. He explained that he had called out for me. They said Oh, sorry for bothering you, and that was that. But this is the second time that's happened. I really love my new store, I do, but that's just frustrating.

Damm is scheduled to have his physical early next week. His options for basic are probably going to take him away from late May to December. Yeah, he'll probably miss the birth. I'm trying not to think about that-I wanted it to just be us this time around. And I'm also trying not to think about handling two small children on my own. We're thinking of me going back to my parents' house because I'll be more comfy there, but they were planning on selling their house soon so I'm not sure if that would work out. And I'd have to bring my dog, and my dad DOES NOT like doggies. So we'll see.

I need to lie back down again, see ya'll laters.

I agree with the above! You have written support. Hope you feel better as soon as possible because whatever the situation, it sucks more when you have to yack all the time.
"they" say no two pregnancies are the same. I guess "they" haven't met our lovely Wulfa!

My heart goes ut to you Darlin, but I only got sick with carring John TWICE! & that was only from drinking hot tea. I only drank hot tea twice the entire way thru! (I loathe vomitting) lol!

It's a labor of love Sweets, don't forget that the pay out is far worth it in the long run :)

I'm here if you need an ear!

O, & YAY! I can post a comment again!!! ~Yayness~

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

There be too much history.

For the past couple of weeks Damm and I have been faithfully spending an hour each day working on our respective summer projects-he on his writing and me on Spanish and history. I had previously mentioned wanting to create some sort of series that I’d work on throughout the summer. I did a bit of brainstorming and decided that I should write essays on bits of fun and fascinating history. Then I started thinking up topic ideas and realized that I didn’t have enough time to randomly pick subjects, research them, and then write entertainingly. So I decided to pick one area of focus. It came down to either Modern Russia or the Civil War Era, since these are the two history courses I’ll be taking in the fall. I chose the Civil War. And even then I have not narrowed my focus enough. The essays one could write on the American Civil War … the possibilities are endless. And so I’m in the process of redefining what I will write/research. I’m in the midst of gathering info for a...

Guildless.

Me and Wulfa are now guildless. This came as kinda a shock and with no communication from the deciding party. I'm currently looking for a guild for us. We are not "raiders" and will never be. We do research our gear and fights and in general our classes. We are looking for a guild that we can be a part of, chat with, and not be expected to raid or be on specific times. I think that means we're looking for a "social" guild. We are primarily alliance but once finances get squared away(aka my bonus arrives) we could possibly convert to horde. If anyone knows of any guilds that they would recommend please let us know.
