Deep Breath

Monday morning the last fat yellow sticky pill rolled down my throat, my last progesterone supplement. Today I take a deep breath and pray. I am 12 weeks and 1 day pregnant.

This humorous baby ticker is brought to you by the good folks over at baby-gag.com who enlisted the help of The Sarcastic Journalist to bring you a zero mush pregnancy ticker option. Perfect for us black sheep mothers who’s kids don’t fart roses.

In other news we have picked tile for the master bathroom and have a pretty good idea what vanity we are going to order. The insulation inspection is tomorrow and walls should soon follow. I am wrangling with a new color palette, trying to decide how I want the house to flow together. We are moving away from bold primaries and moving towards full bodied earth tones. The addition has all new windows and in the next few weeks we should be getting a fireplace inset installed. I’m giddy just imagining the possibilities, it all seems attainable now. I wonder though in the end will it have been worth it? This house has eaten my brain and soul. I am trying to get amped for making decorating choices instead of loathing this place. I’m hoping as things come together I can let go of all the negativity and allow myself to heal from the stress of this house and some of the not so good things that have happened here.

    Ya! 12 weeks!

    I am starting to loath my house as well with all the painting I have had to do. It will never end, I swear. When I am done, every single square inch including all doors and trim will have been done entirely by me, and I hate to paint. Now I dispise it. Those colors will be gorgeous. Mine are deep red, yellow, brown and my bedroom is a tealish-bluish color with brown suede bedding. It is my favorite room so far! It is so calming in there…

    Somehow I missed the “bad stuff” that happened last year in your house. Aweful. Brings back bad memories for me, luckily me and the kids are long gone from that relationship. So sorry you had to endure that. I hope she gets out…

    Hopefully, when it’s all done, you will look at your house with pride over what you’ve accomplished.

    And YAY! for the 12 weeks!
