Just a quick note to let everyone know I have been ill with morning, afternoon and evening sickness most of the time. If I do have moments when I feel OK I find myself having to play catch up on things, leaving little time for the blog. I have also hosted Thanksgiving and Ella's 1st Birthday party. Both events went great to spite my nausea and having to excuse myself to the restroom at 1 hour intervals. Ella is doing great, walking and growing like a weed!
Relatives will be coming in from the East Coast for the holidays soon, I will be busy with family and friends and getting as much rest as I can fit in. I have spent very little time on the computer, taking time to grade student assignments and check email only. The blog posting will be much more regular after the holidays and hopefully I will be feeling better soon (fingers crossed that this is only first trimester).
In the mean time warm tea & bland warm foods have been my friend. The weather has been very cold making it easy to crawl under the covers at every opportunity and just rest when I have a chance. When dizziness, exhaustion, and nausea set in & I feel like just laying around I watch Star Trek reruns, forensic shows, old movies, or listen to Harry Potter books on CD (when Tony is home to watch Ella of course) :)
Happy Holidays Everyone!

Ooh... star trek and harry potter - nice.
You ever notic the similarilties between Kirk/Spock/Bones and Harry/Hermione/Ron? Uncanny, that freudian ego/super-ego/id triad....
If you could use a good book, try John Crowley's Little, Big or Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell. Both are dense, intense and long, but very good, if you like "literature" (exposing my snob-self here...)
Now that you mention it, I see the similarities! WOW
I have been waiting for another good book to read!I will check the library today.You, a snob.......righhhhht lol Thanks Jim
