A Piece Of Gum

Over the weekend, a good storm came through and knocked down some 
of the lights that the boys had hung in the trees.
This afternoon, they were back outside, re-stringing the lights, 
with Christian at the wheel of the tractor.
I got outside for a little walk and a change of scenery. 
"Morning sickness," which to me means "all day sickness," has beaten me down, 
and I spend most of my days lying in bed with a piece of gum under my nose.
It's horrible. 
I haven't been able to work or even go to the studio for a few days
 because there is a smell at the studio- I can't put my finger on it,
but it makes me so sick.  It's so sad.
I am still wrestling with the fact that
I am pregnant, and this timing is the absolute worst.
Claire and Nate are flying in next week for their wedding. 
We still have so much to do, and I need to be around to do it, not sick in bed.
The good news: I haven't thrown up yet, which is different from my previous
pregnancies, where I threw up the second I got pregnant.
So there's that.
