I just read this quote on another blog and it urged me to get busy. Right now everything just seems to be a struggle for me and i am fighting an eternal battle within myself. I realise that there is so much more going on and so when i find the ability to forgive myself i do. It still does not make it any easier when i know that i am also a procrastinator and closet lazy person.. I'm working on it.
But for now I am just adjusting. Meaning my pants, deepness of my breath, legs, shoulders, back, and my head. Trying to wrap my mind around what is coming. There is a baby on the way!! Tomorrow is 37 weeks and full term in the eyes of people I've not met who make the rules. The excitement is a strong undercurrent through all our household conversations. I feel prepared in that I am ready to have this child. I am so excited to meet this new person! Barry asks me if i am visualizing the experience--which i am not really except that i have these fancy glimpses of tears of accomplishment. I just tell myself that I can do this of course!!
As my mid-wife has said, "no baby has ever stayed in." And I am looking foward to re-counting the experience. Whatever it may hold..goodness, total goodness.
Until that moment though i am trying to not eat every cookie in the house. I am thankful that the leg cramps have subsided, and the itching, and am okay with wanting to chew ice all day. I have gone over the journey here and there in my mind. How lucky I am to have the started the year with my own business and ending the year with a completely different life path and being okay with it all. I learned from a friend to light candles. So now in every room there can be a delicous scent that greets you. I was smart and plugged my christmas tree lights into an outlet that can be turned on from the wall so most every moment it is sparkling. I am playing music all day and realise now that i need to dance more. Excuse me for this broad range of sub-conscious writing it is feeling good to me. Life is amazing--and to my aunt gail--thanks for the panty liners--i love you always.
