Saturday, December 27, 2008
We are about 5 days away from the time to take our pregnancy test. Up until yesterday, I was completely convinced that it would be another negative--I had no symptoms or anything.
Today, I am beginning to let myself think that just maybe we will be successful this time around. I wouldn't call it symptoms but there are definately some things going on with me that are different than the norm for me.

For starters, I just feel off. Not sick like, but just not right. Something feels slightly off. Second, I'm so stinkin' tired. I'm not one to nap. I just have never been one to lay down and nap. Well, since Christmas day I've been so tired. I fell asleep on my sister-in-law's couch right in the middle of our Christmas celebration. I slept in the car to and from the party as well. Then last night I felt so tired that I physically couldn't get up. I felt like I had been drugged or something. Today has proven to be no better. I'm feeling so ditzy and brain-dead. For instance, I was supposed to pick up my mother-in-law's birthday cake for her party this afternoon. It was a really big deal because it's from a bakery that normally isn't open between Christmas and New Years....and this year they are. So as a surprise, I ordered her a cake. But, instead of picking it up like I had planned, I was in bed till almost noon when Richie came home from his side job. I neglected all of my housework, the dog, myself and the cake because I was too tired to get up.

Initially I blamed it on Lucy waking me up too early, but in all honesty she's not getting me up any earlier than normal. I'm such an anal person when it comes to housework and cleaning but today there is just no getting me out of the recliner. Thank goodness for this laptop.....

I don't know. I don't want to get myself all excited and worked up because really I'm tired of being let down. But for some reason, this time seems different.

Cross your fingers for us!
