Anyway, as per usual for my fatigued state of mind, I will be coming to you on this lucky Friday afternoon with another list of random...
- I keep waking up at 5:00am (I don't need to get up until about 7, the advantage of living 20 minutes from work and working in the Architecture industry where a work day doesn't usually start until sometime after 9) and I can't fall back asleep. I'm beginning to think this is because I am hungry and ready to eat. I think I will be keeping some snacks on my night stand to test this theory. Anyone else have this problem?
- Why do people forget how to drive in the rain? And why do people not know that if the car in front of them just went across the intersection at a 4-way stop sign IT IS NOT THEIR TURN until someone crosses in front of them from the perpendicular street? And want to be treated like vehicles unless it's more convenient for them to act as a pedestrian at that particular moment. (Rants from my drive home last night).
- Belly Bands really do work to hold up maternity jeans.
- Should I be concerned that I gained 6 pounds in one day (after eating Mexican for dinner, and before pooping?) By the way, due to my starting BMI, I am only supposed to put on 20 pounds for this entire pregnancy. This is frightening. I really need the fatigue to end so I can start exercising again.
- When will America get rid of Hollie on Idol? That poor girl is a dear in headlights and it's painful. And even though I would never buy an album by BB Chez, I certainly recognize that the girl is extremely talented. That made no kind of sense last night. And by the way, does anyone really believe that Joshua is only 19? In case you are curious, I am rooting for Phillip and Colton.
- If you're as into singing competitions as I am (no, I don't do X Factor or America's Got Talent) you all know that Celo clearly has the best team, and 3 of the 4 he has remaining should just get to be in the final. (Please get rid of Chessa, what kind of name is that anyway?) Unfortunately. this is not how the game is played, and both Juliet and Jamar will not get to be there. Does anyone remember Jamar from Idol a few years ago? He was Danny Gokey's best friend who narrowly missed the top 24.
- We just got the building permit for our deck. Hubby will start demoing the old one tomorrow while I swing in the hammock and
napwatch him.
Um, yeah, my life pretty much consists of lying on the couch watching singing competitions, because I have so little energy for anything else. Looking forward to the weekend so I can sleep!!
All right, that's all I got. I told you it was all kinds of random. Happy Weekend everyone!
We have the same issue with snow and drivers here.. Even after a winter of snow and a couple of weeks of sort of nice weather with dry roads, the 2nd is snowed again everyone when ape-poo!
ReplyDeleteI just got done watching this week's AI episodes, talk about crazy!! I too most likely wouldn't by Jessica's albums (or her alternate ego), but she is crazy good. I'm with you about Hollie (she is cute though) and of the guys Joshua (and Deandre) has been my least favorite for a while. I love Colton and Phillip! Colton even had me tearing up this time around (my hormones are crazy this week).
I think my fatigue and exhaustion went around right around this time. Looking back at my posts, I think it was around week 15 (almost 4 months) that I started feeling more energetic, especially after the influenza I had. Fingers crossed you get your energy back soon.
I'm partial to The Voice :)
ReplyDeleteIt gets easier. You'll have energy soon I promise =) And you have LOTS of time to do everything.
ReplyDeleteI don't wake up as early as you do but I do have an internal alarm clock that wakes me up earlier than my alarm- only sinc I have been pregnant! It's weird bc I am not a morning person!
ReplyDeleteI love the Voice!! Also, I was completely fatigued until about 26 weeks. Then I had energy for about 4 weeks, which is when I did EVERYTHING I needed to get done for her room! Then at about 30 weeks I was exhausted again. Everyone kept telling me I would get a burst of energy once the 2nd trimester hit...not so much for me. Just a heads up for you...because I think everyone lied to me ;)
ReplyDeleteI hate driving in the rain too....it makes me want to cut people....
I had the same problem with popping awake. I would pop up at 4 am when I didn't need to get up until 6. It made me nuts. I kept trying to go to bed earlier in the hopes that my total amount of sleep would balance out, but it didn't seem to work.
ReplyDeleteAnd, definitely the belly band on the maternity pants thing saves them! Eventually, they'll fit on their own, though... :)
Yeah, the stop sign thing makes me nuts. I find myself yelling at people at four way stops a lot.
Hope that your fatigue soon passes. 6 month to go, Yay!
