That time of year, perhaps.

So is it just me, or does anyone else think that March totally sucks???

I know, I can hardly talk since I never lost power with the two weeks of snowstorms that we had, so I've had it relatively good. But I made it through February, which is typically miserable anyway, thinking that March would be my light at the end of the tunnel. Instead, it's one snowy, wet, cold, and crappy day after the next. Even all the bright sunshine can't cheer me up. My main issue: I'm LAAAAZY. It's too cold in my house to do anything without a blanket, so I sit wrapped up in my huge chair for hours. I blame pregnancy for lacking energy, but there's really no excuse for my extreme lack of accomplishments in the past 2 weeks. Saturday, I mopped the kitchen floor and grocery shopped, topping all activities from the previous week. Sunday, I started the (already loaded) dishwasher, and that's it. Today's not looking good either. And all I can say is, "I just don't feel like doing anything." Blah. The future August-Kristin is hating current March-Kristin for having free time and mobility and not making the most of it!!

So, do I blame the time of year? Or my little prune? (upgraded from olive last week). My appointment with the OB is tomorrow, so maybe I'll ask. This is week 10, btw.

I'm making lemon bars tonight to take to work tomorrow. If all goes well at the appointment, I'll tell people at work, and thus will begin the flood of people telling me how my life will change so much and how I don't look that big yet. I know people mean well, and I do genuinely like many of my coworkers so it'll be fun to tell them, but I just am not quite down with the idea of people talking to me about my body size/shape and my lifestyle. Or worse, about me. I've always thought my workplace is decently gossip-free, but perhaps I just avoid the gossipers (likely). For self-preservation, I'll probably stick with oblivion again. Man... Who knew that after all these years of trying not to be, I am still this self-conscious?

And since I just got home from work, I'm going to go put on some comfy pants. Because yes, I am already getting bigger. Yikes! :)

You crack me up!! I think you should start posting weekly photos of your belly so we can see you progressively get bigger and then talk about you :-)
