10 weeks - and tired

At ten weeks I'm getting pretty anxious for trimester 2. Today was one of the days I debated (heavily) on if I could make it to work or not. The zofran helped....but I'm still not great and it's mid-afternoon. Work is busy today, which is helpful for the passing of the time.
I'm not sleeping real well. I toss and turn at night, plus I get up and go to the stupid bathroon every hour and a half. This is gonna get worse I hear....then what? The bathroom every half hour? It disrupts my sleep, so I'm working on getting used to that. We have this cute little rubber duck night light that I USED to think was just darling...now I want to smash it everytime I stumble in the bathroom in the middle of the night. Not so cute when I'm spending half the evening visiting the bathroom.
I hold true to the thinking that I will be a super fun, beyond fabulous and happy SECOND trimester pregnant girl. I'm already more comfortable in my maternity tops. The bella bands are holding up my pre-pregnant pants and making them oh-so-comfy these days. I long for the time of day when I get home and put on my shorts and slippers. 'Comfy clothes' has been totally redefined for me during pregnancy. LOVE IT.
Keith is going to Jamiaca...I'm pretty jealous. The preggo-wife isn't going. Too risky with food and barfing and the flight...relaxing at the pool would be fantastik, but GETTING THERE seems too much for me.  It's really neat that his boss pays for the trip for them once a year. It should be fun for him to get away, and relax a bit. I'm sure between work and home-life (a.k.a. ME) it hasn't been easy the last few months. So I'll be hanging with 'the Donna' and the doggies. Girl-week should be fun. I'm thinking American Idol and mexican food. YUM.
Hoping winter fades ASAP. This weather is depressing. I want spring at least. No coat...no more snow. For me, spring symbolizes all my hopes of feeling better, having more energy, getting outside and walking everyday. I love the morning smells in the spring and summer. I love that our street will come alive and the crazy kids will be playing in the middle of the road again. I want to sit on my deck and have my morning coffee (well, now my morning juice). I want to come home after work to fresh cut grass smell and eat dinner on the deck.
Here's hoping it gets here fast!
