Well, it's Sunday morning, I woke up to darn early again. Yuck. Oh well. I'm going to start moving furniture and taping my living room today and hopefully start painting. I think I picked out a great color. I hope I don't get it on the wall and hate it. I'll take pics when it's done and post them.
AF showed up bright and early yesterday so in spite of the cramps, I'm excited!!! It's now CD 2 for me and I should be AI'ing somewhere around CD 14-16. I'm so excited. I feel like I'm finally doing something to move my dream along. It's funny, ever since I decided I was going through with this, I've been eating better. I noticed the other day that I had lost a couple of pounds and so I weighed myself again yesterday and had gained 2 back. I was so mad, then went to the bathroom and realized "oh yeah, AF is here" which always makes me gain about 2 pounds or so. So, I should be back to my pre Christmas weight and have now succeeded in losing that same 10 pounds for the 4th time. So, even though I'm over weight and I realize that this could make me higher risk, it still is better to maintain my weight with healthy eating, than to keep up this yoyo dieting. My doctor did say that she was ok with my weight and there are large women who have healthy pregnancies. So, I'll just have to be more careful, watch myself, what I eat, and the things my body is telling me a little more than most women and I believe I can do this. Now if work doesn't make me a total basket case I'll be fine.
Ebay auctions did ok. I sold most of my stamp sets and a vase that if my mom ever figures out I sold, she'll probably kill me. However, since my mom is very unlikely to ever come visit me and basically seems to not be speaking to me at all again, I doubt she will ever find out I sold it. I still didn't make even half of what I had paid for the stamps but oh well.
Oh and I had lunch with a friend of mine yesterday who is thinking about TTC with her boyfriend (the good old fashioned way) in May. That would be kind of fun and exciting if we had babies at about the same time.
Well, off to get ready to paint. I hope it all goes well and I don't end up with something awful like blue carpet. Hope that didn't just jinx myself.

Good for you for eating healthy! You, your baby will need good nutrition. Might as well make it a habit now, huh. You also lightened your load by getting rid of a few things and picking up some cash!! Now you're converting the cash into paint for your house and just two weeks away from AI!!!! You're SO on the right track!!!!! Good luck!
I am agree with all the above from Chelle...great work on your end.Happy Painting! As far as the weight goes...YOU have to be happy with yourself first & I truly feel the rest takes care of itself. You sound terrific and because you are eating well and being aware I think you have a WONDERFUL chance at a problem-free Pregnancy. Sounds like you have a good, supportive doctor and that is wonderful. No worries my dear....go for AI with your whole heart, my opinion is that you will feel the BEST you ever have during your pregnancy! I can't wait to congratulate you.:)
Hope your painting went well. It can be so much work but well worth it at the end. Sorry about your Mom...that is too bad but it sounds like you have lots of supportive people around..oh and of course the Internet Crowd!!!
YAY for AF showing you will be AI in no time! Have fun painting!
