The Beginning of December????

Can it possibly be the beginning of December tomorrow?
Wow.  
I haven't posted for a while and thought I would update those of you who care about our life.
I think the trauma with the baby is over.  
I haven't had any more bleeding!
Praise the Lord. 
Really freaked me out.
I go to the DR on Thursday for an ultrasound and then appointment after that.
I am almost 12 weeks!
You know what that means:
I am almost not sick anymore!
Praise the Lord again.
I hate being sick.
Hate it.
Due to that 6 week time span of doing absolutely nothing but laying in my bed
yelling at my kids to bring me some more pretzels and ice water, my house is disorganized, my kids aren't doing well in school, my hair is a mess (well, maybe that has nothing to do with the sickness) and I just feel an overwhelming need to "pull it together."
It was pretty ugly there for a while.

So, I'm in my "I'm taking back my life" mode.
The kids WILL STUDY FOR 12 HOURS A DAY!
Ty WILL NOT poop his pants any more!
Isaac WILL OBEY the first time I ask him.
THIS HOUSE WILL STAY CLEAN!
And maybe this stuff really won't happen.
But I hope atleast for a while I can pretend like I have it all together.

Justus hasn't been able to find a job yet.
I haven't either.
Though I haven't really looked.
We are hoping to make good use of my Medical Transcription degree that I earned in August.
I am going to start seriously looking.
Ha.
I wasn't before.
I'm not going to lie.
It was a half-hearted effort.

And, so, off to clean my pantry out.
I WILL BE ORGANIZED AGAIN!

I have yet to get back to the pantry...I should do that. The sickness may be gone, but the tiredness is still strong!
