Monday, June 29, 2009 | A Rambling story

I had a fine weekend, but I was exhuasted all weekend. Exhausted but unable to sleep.

 

Had a garage sale on Saturday - part of a commumity garage sale. Second weekend in a row I tried, and after 6 hours in the sun I still had most of my stuff, a measly $10.50, and one heck of a sunburn. My dad hauled off everything that didn't sell, and the good news is he will store the baby stuff for my SIL who is due with #5 in December. Here's hoping the baby is a girl!

 

On Sunday I was going to go to Church, but my son's dad was a little late picking him up, and as I went up the stairs to start a load of laundry and get dressed I was just overcome with exhaustion. I laid down with the baby for a bit, but then had to start cleaning up the living room and dragging out the garage sale items to load in Dad's truck.

 

Dad was at my house until about 12:30; I was going to feed the baby and then go to work after he left, but instead worked on the laundry and laid down with the baby on my chest. She slept, and I tried, but decided to put her down, and of course she woke up when I did, so no nap for me. We played with blocks for a long time, and then went to pick up her brother.

 

So I didn't get any OT in this weekend, didn't make really any money, didn't get the house clean...and didn't get much sleep. At night I am so tired, but lay awake for no reason for hours until I finally doze off.

 

Also noticed this weekend that I have NO appetite. I am 3 weeks post RAI today - not sure if this is part of all that or just something else. On Saturday all I ate was 2 tacos, on Sunday I  had 3 bowls of cereal (one for breakfast and two for dinner).

 

Weight as of yesterday was 96 pounds.
