Because You Asked For It

I wrote that I didn’t want to whine any more about moving and I’m a little surprised by the number of you who replied, “JUST SAY IT!”  You people are a bit masochistic I think, but here’s a run down of my morning so far:

• Morning sickness
• Spent 20 minutes searching for the answer to the timeless question “Why does my nose fill up with snot when I puke?”  Dr Google doesn’t know.  It’ll have to just remain a mystery.
• Choked down my second breakfast of the day.
• Weighed myself and laughed in an unfunny way at how much I’ve lost.  If I weren’t pregnant, I’d be rejoicing.  My teenager calls it “nature imposed bulimia.”
• Got off the phone with the real estate agent.  We’ve had no showings in 2 weeks.  We’re droppping the price.
• Sent an angry email to the property manager we hired to lease the house.  She hasn’t shown it at all.  I put an ad on base and have shown it 3 times in a week.  I’m beginning to question why we would pay her.
• I’m reviewing my to-do list to see what can be ignored for today ad what absolutely MUST get done.  There’s too much that needs doing.  I was hoping for a short anti-nausea med induced nap.  Not happening today.
• After 4 weeks of frantic phone calls, I finally found a midwife in the DFW area who delivers in a hospital, does VBACs,and had room in her patient list.  I should be elated, but the thought of how far it is to her office is making me ill.  I can’t use a OB, they want to automatically cut me, and I need a hospital delivery because anything else makes me nervous for the safety of both the baby and me.  
• Our move schedule for next week got changed so that now instead of a seamless transition from one house to another, we have one night with nowhere to go.  The movers load the truck on Tuesday afternoon and don’t unload until Thursday (it was supposed to be Wednesday.) Which leaves me scrambling for a place to sleep on Tuesday night with 6 children and a dog.  I don’t want to stay with friends because it just sounds like an additional ass-pain to me.  
• We’ve had 3 leases on our house fall through in the last month.  I’m not sure what God’s plan is in all of this, but could he hurry it up just a bit?  Please?
• Oh, and while He’s at it, the nausea is not helping.
