The Pink Notebook

A lot like the one we passed around in high school.

I think I'm caught up....sort of

Well, I just finished reading the two (yes, just two) blogs that I like to read - written by my old high school friends. You'd think with just two of them, I'd do a little better keeping up (I had to go back to their April archives before I found posts that I remembered reading). And really, you guys may be the only two people who actually read my blog (well, that's not true - I know Reed reads it, if I'd ever update it).

So I've learned a lot about Jenny's life and her move to join me here in PA - okay, so the York/Harrisburg area is just as far from Pittsburgh as Baltimore is, but at least now we're in the same state :). And I've learned much less than I'd have liked about KT's trip to Alaska to work with Habitat for Humanity.

So now, you guys can learn a new little tidbit about my life: I'm pregnant! It's a bit scary and really rather draining at this point (why on earth do they call it "morning" sickness - they should just call it "two or more months of feeling like crap all the time"). I'm really having trouble actually eating the amount of food I'd need just for myself, let alone the extra 200 or 300 calories per day for the extra human growing inside me. Ah well, I've been assured that it will go away soon. I really hope so, 'cause I can't take much more of this.

Let's see, what else? Oh, I'm going to try to post those photos again. Let's see if that works:

Hooray - it worked! - here's a Bison at Yellowstone
Ah - Mount Rushmore, with me added.

OK, so I have about 8 more photos that I was going to upload, but they're taking too long on my puny dial-up connection. And I have a meeting I have to be at in 1 hour, so I'm going to give up now and wait until I'm somewhere with a faster connection.

Congratulations! (Again!)

I am excited for you! And I hope you feel better soon! I was sick until about 22 weeks, so it can last a long long time. But hopefully you will be lucky!

Now you'll need to post more often to keep us updated. More circus stories! More updates on how you feel and what's going on with the growing wee one!

And keep those hard candies handy...they really do help!

CONGRATULATIONS!
i quickly got over the guilt i felt for not
putting up any significant habitat postings
when it was replaced with joy for your news!!
