Airhead: Lesson Learned



Last night Dan and I munched down on Sandies and mini airheads- today I have felt the consequence of that decision. I have had a tummy ache, puked, and now just sort of back to feeling blah! I think I am going to make wiser decisions in the future :)


I am currently making homemade chicken noodle soup- without a recipe. I love chicken noodle soup when the weather is all stormy. Dan has been feeling pretty under the weather lately so maybe this could help his throat and make his tummy feel settled.

Flylady Magic

There has been immediate success in using flylady for only one day. I know that I am only suppose to do the "baby steps" before the daily routine but I have been living flylady for the past few years at my parents house and it is a natural way of living for me- I just need guidance.

Cleaning the sink has been somewhat difficult since the chemicals were making me feel uber sick. I am not in my bedroom avoiding that situation :) I did the hour cleaning and our living room is very happy looking. My parents gave dan and I a vacuum cleaner and so we returned the brand new one my sisters gave us, less than a week later the vacuum cleaner died. We bought one while in Chicago at a thrift store but accidentally left it behind when we headed out for Rexburg. So I try vacuuming but it does not work well- hmmm we need to go to the D.I. soon and find one that works.

Anyways my apartment is pretty clean excluding the bathroom needing to be sanitized and the office being messy.

Being Pregnant

As of last Friday I saw the doctor for the first time. I am three months pregnant and was able to see our baby as well as hear the heart beat. Dan was unable to attend the appointment due to having LSAT the next day and a last minute tutoring session- since he is the tutor he had to go. He was way bummed because he was not there to see the ultrasound, but we did not know they were going to do one on the first appointment. I think the doctor decided once I am in.

Being pregnant so far has not been extremely fun for me. I never regret being pregnant but I certainly am learning that I enjoy being not pregnant due to my body becoming overwhelmingly sick. I have not thrown up in over a week and luckily my body is allowing me to sit up and interact more often.

Tomorrow will be my first day starting flylady (flylady.com). My mom has been on the flylady program for over three years and I love being in a clean, sanitized area. Lately I have struggled to keep our two bedroom, one bath apartment clean- I find this an embarrassment since we do not have a lot of space but there is a lot of messy areas needing to be cleaned. Hopefully flylady can save our apartment and my sanity. I am happy Dan does not seem to notice for the most part.

Well Dan said he finished up his homework for the night and wants to relax watching a movie with me... so thanks for reading!
