Sneezing and Peeing....

Oh geeze, I feel crappy and want to crawl into a hole and sleep or whine, I think whining would be more fun! I think I may have overdone it at the Comic Con :) and the horrible shoes and the poopy dinner and the over watered plants.....as I said before, Krista and pregnancy are not a good mix.
I cancelled my OB appointment today but she still wants me to go to the hospital out here to get baby's heart checked. I think I will go tomorrow. I don't feel like getting ready, it's going to be a lazy day.

My dear friend Teree sent this to me this morning. I am so excited for her...a brand new baby this Friday!! Sending her love and hugs. xo 

Nausea Pops

3 cups strawberries, hulled & quartered
2 bananas, sliced
1 cup blueberries
1 cup apple juice
1 cup Greek yogurt, vanilla
2 Tbsp. honey
1 Tbsp fresh grated ginger

1. Wash and chop fruit and add to blender.
2. Add remaining ingredients to blender and blend on high until smooth.
3. Fresh ginger is more potent and works best but substitute powdered if it's all you have.
4. Pour into popsicle molds/paper cups with pop sticks or whatever works.
5. Freeze, enjoy and feel better!
Note: They are especially good when delivered to you in bed first thing in the morning ;)

Before I make everybody sad and sick feeling, I should talk about some good, happy stuff. Well, Teree having her baby is happy, the rest is sucky!!

A friend sent this to me this morning and it made my day. I've discussed on Facebook several times that whenever I sneeze, cough, laugh too hard, jump up and down (which very rarely ever happens), talk too loud, move quickly, I think you get my point, I PEE!

I can't wait for the day when I can get things tightened, sucked out, lifted, pulled...that will be a beautiful day. I have so many friends who give birth, then the next week, they are in their skinny jeans. I am not one of those people. Ok, I've never owned skinny jeans because they are called SKINNY jeans and not CHUBBY jeans. Not the best sight. I am ready to get my body back. I am ready to take an exercise class (I think), I am ready for a new beginning. I am ready for a new wardrobe!!! :)

Next, I am just watching Kelly and Michael and they are giving an award for the Top Teacher in America. Before having Brinley, I was nominated for Teacher Excellence in Alberta. I was thrilled and truly ecstatic that I was nominated. My point, the show was showing a clip of a teacher's classroom and they were all singing and smiling and loving each other. I giggled. Ok, I'm sure that the class is like that, sometimes, but I bet, at least 50 times a day, you will hear, "Suzie, sit down and stop singing. Ricky, you are not listening, again. Mitch :), you just lost your recess, again. I was nominated when I was teaching at-risk high school girls, so our days were action packed. We didn't sing songs, well, I sang songs just because they had nowhere to run. We didn't have recesses because we were in high school, nor did they have lunch break. We all ate together. No breaks for anybody until 3:00pm. I miss my girls.
I received an email the other from one of my girls and she invited me to her graduation. Sniff. Sniff. I told her that I would be honoured to attend. I am so proud! <3

When the girls are a bit older, I will return. I love teaching, I love making a difference, I love kids, I love attitude, I love seeing that light bulb flicker. It's the best profession in the whole world.

Happy Tuesday!! :)
