Ever since I got pregnant again I have been so tired. I know that it's eventually going to pass but I'm just miserable. My hours are ALL screwed up, and they're even worse now that they've switched the hubs to a night shift until mid July. I really should try and get my schedule back on normal military times, since he's not here anyway.
The amazing thing is, I have really been making progress with my house. I've done at least a load of laundry every day (which is a huge pain to me because my dryer is totally broken. We COULD fix the heating element, but so much else is wrong I'm afraid we'd burn the house down.) I've vacuumed every day. My kitchen is really shaping up. And I started labeling the house to help my son read. Doing that made me suddenly realize, "DUH" I should do that for myself so I'm not wandering around trying to figure out a new place to put something EVERY time I put it away. We're going to move our dresser into the living room next to the laundry room so I'm more likely to get stuff into it. I guess despite being so tired all of the time (and everything gives me a headache, I'm surprised one hasn't cropped up yet typing this) I'm actually really proud of myself and happy. Yesterday, going outside trying to evaluate what I needed to mow, I discovered that I had morning glories growing wild all over in all of the shady areas of my house and I couldn't have been happier if he came home with a diamond ring.
Just thought I'd share. I'm feeling really social tonight, which is another big, "whoa, what's going on here" for me. LOL

Sun, June 29, 2008 - 2:43 PMThey're one of my favorite three flowers! :D They grow wild everywhere around here except for the street that I live on apparently. I haven't seen another house with them. I think I found a bunch of wild strawberries too, but then I stepped in a burr plant and got sidetracked before I figured it out. LOL I have a few patches popping up in my walkway I'm going to try and bring into the house. It's so hot where they are they're going to die anyway if I leave them alone. -

Mon, June 30, 2008 - 8:43 PMIt's good you can see progress in your house and got a nice flower surprise outside. : )
I'm at the middle of the spectrum-pushing 50, seeing menopause creeping up on me, my son in his senior year of college. I have trouble getting into deep cleaning anymore. It's too boring. When company comes (not too often as we live far away from my family-to them 23 miles is far) I can get into it. But just today, I changed out some of my tchotchkes in my bay window and wiping it out and doing that made me feel like I accomplished something. I do keep up with my kitchen the most as it's only 2 years old and not paid for-lol. : ) I also made a nice macaroni salad that my guys dug into. That's enough to make me happy.
