School has started. I was flattened last week by a sinus infection - couldn't get out of bed if you paid me. But I'm much better this week, so I am here giving knowledge to students. They are all very excited about the semester and about our productions and their enthusiasm rubs off on me. I've been thinking about all of it for so long that my enthusiasm has waned, but their excitement makes it all better.
Morning sickness has magically disappeared (more or less). I was INCREDIBLY happy when I found that I could eat real food again - not just jello and pedialyte popsicles. Food has never tasted so good.
Steve has caught the cold now and I left him in bed with tissues, dayquil, the phone, and the all important TV remote. He and the dog are perfectly happy with life - minus the cold, of course.
Tomorrow is a day off and the start of a long weekend for me. I hope to catch up on everything I should have done last week and still manage to stay ahead of the game. I would love to go home, take off my shoes, and have a well-deserved glass of wine...I'll have to save that thought for a while.
I have my next appointment with Dr. Ford on Tuesday, so I'll post anything new then!

2009
I am procrastinating. I should be finding wonderful information to impart to my students, but instead I am writing this. The winter break has ended much too fast, considering I spent most of it on the sofa feeling very, VERY ill. Pregnancy is great, but morning (and afternoon, evening, and night) sickness ain't.
I don't really have much to say because not much is happening here. The trees outside are covered in ice, which is lovely to look at, but not great to be out in.
Steve is currently on his hands and knees putting handles on the kitchen cabinets. After over a year of no handles, this makes a change. He's excited about everything that is going on and will make a great poppa.
We bought a car over the weekend and I finally traded in my lovely high school car - the red Dodge Stratus. What a beauty. I was sad to see her go, but then I look at the Equinox sitting in the driveway and I think "What Stratus?"
We ushered 2009 in with little fanfare and no pomp. It was more a case of wondering if we could stay up until midnight. We managed to, but by 12:05 we were in bed. I guess we're getting old.
That's it. Classes start next week, so the rush is on to get everything together and to use the copier without anyone breathing down your neck. It won't happen.
