I'm Tired....

I am tired for a lot of reasons:
-I am tired because I am growing a human being inside of me.
-I am tired because the neighbor's damn dogs woke me up with their extremely loud barking
-I am tired because my two daughters are full of life and energy and are wearing me out!
-I am tired of worrying about whether we should fix our car and then not be able to buy Christmas presents or drive it like it is, worrying that it will break down again any minute, so that we can buy Christmas presents for the kids who totally deserve some new toys.(Why do cars have to break down in December anyway?)
-I am tired of talking about all the bad things in Mormonism. There are some good things, my extended family for example. Sometimes when I or others criticize the church I feel I am criticizing my own family, who doesn't deserve it because they have never done anything but love and support us. I think I talk and think more about Mormonism now then I ever did as a believer. I really am tired of it. I am going to try to stop. It's old news now. Live and let live!
-My ass is tired from sitting on this hard chair while typing on the computer.
-I am tired because every time I turn on the news I hear extremely sad news. God bless the Kim family! Pregnant women shouldn't watch sad news or they end up crying all day.
-I am tired of having this all-day sickness(AKA: Morning sickness) I am longing for the day when my beloved pizza and my beloved coconut shrimp will sound good again.
-I am tired because I miss my parents and siblings terribly especially around the holidays. Sometimes I wish I didn't live so far away.
-I am tired because of all the intolerance in the world. Again I say "Live and let live"
-I am tired because I gave up caffeine when I found out I was pregnant. I miss my Diet Dr Pepper!!(trying to end on a lighter note!)

Oh my, I was hurting for you while reading that post. Especially the part about the caffeine. When my FIL was on his way to the hospital after my daughter was born, I made him stop and get my a quad venti mocha which I inhaled... I missed my coffee sooooo much.

You are allowed to be tired. Gestating is hard work.

Heehee I will probably make sure I have some DDP in the fridge for when I get home. I haven't really gotten the hang of coffee yet. I had just started that when I got pregnant.

And yes gestating is hard work. Man!
