So for the last two years I've been working and not building much, but still acquiring sets. So for two years pretty much all I do is build a set, take it apart, and try to sort it to excruciating standards. Now there's a new baby coming and my LEGO room (which I've had for 10 months; I hardly knew ye) is going to be a baby room. So I really need everything organized sooner than later. I've been off of work for excessive morning sickness, so occasionally when I feel okay I can sort a bit more. See that person-sized empty spot on the floor? That's where I usually end up, battling nausea and exhaustion and determined to get just one more piece in the right bin.
The little LEGO is going to get moved to the DUPLO room, which is okay. The big complaint was that my husband really does not like looking at LEGO at all. So now we're going to get some nice cabinets with shutting doors instead of bookshelves. The idea is to close the door, and voila! No LEGO! We'll see.
I keep getting building ideas while I sort, and then won't let myself do them till everything is put away. I'll probably forget them by then. And they're probably all old news anyway. Who knows what amazing things everyone else has come up with while I'm not paying attention?
another day in the life of preggo K.
I was informed this morning that I'd been missing for 11 days. :)
A. I was touched that anyone noticed.
and B. Found that incredible, cos my word time flies.
When you're having fun. Yes. Yes, people, so much fun. I got nauseated watching a carousel spin on Saturday. No, I wasn't on it. But I wanted to barf at the mere idea of it.
Morning Sickness. It is not my friend, and I wanna poke the eyes out of whomever named it 'morning' sickness....cos THAT was just a sick joke.
In happier news, I've successfully quit smoking.
Score one for baby....10 years trying to quit on my own, and BAM. Just like that a blueberry sized embryo gets me to quit cold turkey.
Kids. What are ya gonna do with 'em.
Anyways. Just wanted to pop in and say hey. and I miss everyone.
Pretty much ditching my Year Two....I think it's dead...I can just let it go now. ;-)
I'll try and stop by more though. promise.
I'm gonna go eat some ice cream and plan dinner...and yes...in that order.
What. I'm pregnant. Leave me be. ;-)
Love ya! Hope all is well with everyone else!
xoxo
Halloween Party?
Whatever the cause, this young woman waited for her train with her head in a trash can at Chicago's Union Station while her friend attended to her
Normally, I let the photo do the work of editorializing, but this woman is beyond lovely, in my estimation.

Thalidomide casualties offer spare limbs to German Consulate - London 02.10.2013
Thalidomide survivors protested outside the German Consulate in London's Belgrave Square against the German government's 42-year long protection of Grünenthal GMbH - manufacturer of Thalidomide - from prosecution by any victims of the infamous drug which was administered to pregnant women as a cure for morning sickness, but which caused terrible birth deformities in over 10,000 babies worldwide, many of whom died agonising deaths.
The German government passed a special law in 1971 which gives the drug manufacturer immunity from any prosecution by victims of Thalidomide, even though Grünenthal's victims have needed a lifetime of support which has instead been paid for by taxpayers of the countries in which they were born.
Though various Grünenthal senior officials have verbally apologised over the past few years, the company still refuses point blank to pay compensation for the enduring human misery they have caused, and it is alarming to hear that Thalidomide is now being dished out in Brazil as an effective treatment for Leprosy. Though Thalidomide is proving to be very effective, the problem is that unscrupulous doctors and pharmacists in Brazil are not ensuring women are not pregnant before issuing the drug. As a consequence, the horrors of Thalidomide has been unleashed on the favelas, and Grünenthal know they will continue to be unfairly protected by their government.
Grünenthal has never paid a penny of compensation to its victims in Australia, Sweden, Canada or the United Kingdom.

1. I woke up this morning and ate a few pretzel thins, alarmed at the nausea that followed - I hovered for a few minutes between bed and bathroom before the wave passed, swallowing the saliva, feeling my face flush and cool over and over: this is every day (many times a day) and it's beginning to become so normal that I am not wishing for relief, which feels strangely elating - I do this for my baby, certainly not the last sacrifice I'll make in the course of our time together.
2. I am attempting work today, setting feathers and lots of beautiful stones - work in one's comfies is still work, after all.
3. A dear girlfriend came over last night and confessed that she thought my jewelry and leather work was a hobby and that I was a stay-at-home wife of leisure. It took me a long while to stop chuckling - anyone who runs an online business can understand, what with all the hats we wear and the time it takes to do it right. In between being fed bon bons by our manservant, of course ;)
4. Dial soap is on my list of nose cravings: in fact, I am having such a joyful time with all of the cravings, because they're all from my childhood: it makes me nostalgic and satisfied all at once!
5. Today is the last day of the 93 degree weather we've had all week here in SJ - I dare say I'll miss it: being homebound in a house that cools easily and heats with difficulty, this is my shangri-la!
Have a wonderful weekend, all!! xo

Thalidomide casualties offer spare limbs to German Consulate - London 02.10.2013
Thalidomide survivors protested outside the German Consulate in London's Belgrave Square against the German government's 42-year long protection of Grünenthal GMbH - manufacturer of Thalidomide - from prosecution by any victims of the infamous drug which was administered to pregnant women as a cure for morning sickness, but which caused terrible birth deformities in over 10,000 babies worldwide, many of whom died agonising deaths.
The German government passed a special law in 1971 which gives the drug manufacturer immunity from any prosecution by victims of Thalidomide, even though Grünenthal's victims have needed a lifetime of support which has instead been paid for by taxpayers of the countries in which they were born.
Though various Grünenthal senior officials have verbally apologised over the past few years, the company still refuses point blank to pay compensation for the enduring human misery they have caused, and it is alarming to hear that Thalidomide is now being dished out in Brazil as an effective treatment for Leprosy. Though Thalidomide is proving to be very effective, the problem is that unscrupulous doctors and pharmacists in Brazil are not ensuring women are not pregnant before issuing the drug. As a consequence, the horrors of Thalidomide has been unleashed on the favelas, and Grünenthal know they will continue to be unfairly protected by their government.
Grünenthal has never paid a penny of compensation to its victims in Australia, Sweden, Canada or the United Kingdom.

"Day Five"
I guess I'm lucky. I don't generally puke when I'm pregnant. I just FEEL like puking all day long. Honestly, I don't know which is worse. Regardless, I still make a number of trips to the toilet in anticipation. Blech!

The first changes a woman is most likely to experience when she is pregnant are a missed period followed by a positive pregnancy test.
