The project. Do you ever have an area of your home that is neglected for a whole season? That is exactly what happened all winter where our garage is concerned. We let stuff accumulate and swept once or twice on a warm day (although it's not evident from the before pic). We had a beautiful weekend in the southeast so the garage got a total makeover. Right now, I'm taking an extended break to blog because I am pooped! We cleaned out, swept, mopped, organized, and then I embarrassed PC by making labels for everything. He (smirkingly) said "are you doing this so if we die everyone will know where stuff goes?" And I (smirkingly) replied "exactly!" He had no more comments! Alas, the before... (I've also had other priorities... like IVF!)
And the finished product. We made enough room to bring up a spare fridge from the basement that's used for PC's job so we still have that left to do.
And, finally, the worry. I hate to end two positives with a negative, but I can't help it. I haven't felt any symptoms this weekend. No cravings/aversions/off and on nausea/sore bbs/tiredness... I've really just felt normal with the exception of sneezing and a runny nose that I'm pretty sure can be blamed on all the pollen. Everything I've read says that pregnancy symptoms come and go. I'm at the end of week #10 and I think some of the earlier symptoms start to taper off at this point. Still, you know it didn't stop me from POAS. And the darn $1.00 store tests rarely show a test line that's darker than the control line. It makes my mind race with more worries, especially since I switched from PIO shots to suppositories this week. I'm driving PC crazy about it. I know there are some ladies out there who are shouting right now "enjoy... I wish that were my case" because they have been so sick. I feel bad for complaining about not feeling yucky. I just wish I could see in my uterus right now! Five days to the next ultrasound and that feels like such a long time!
I see getting through the first trimester as such a huge milestone. I'm currently in another 2WW to get to that point and my prayers haven't changed... please stay with me and keep growing little Mac or PC!
