All things considered, I really can't complain. I am dealing with pregnancy fatigue but so far I have not had to deal sickness. Remembering how sick Traci always was, I often wonder if I am really lucky or if my luck is about to run out. This was the first week that I noticed big changes in how I feel. I am hungry all the time. And getting hungry now means feeling sick. I have moved from eating meals to nibbling all day. At first I was really concerned about gaining weight because I don't usually eat like this, but I don't eat much when I eat - - I just eat all the time.
The closest I came to sickness was in my Thursday Theologians group yesterday. About half way through the session I felt exhausted and began to feel sick, despite the fact that I had eaten. I kept watching the clock thinking 'you can make it - you can make it'. Then we moved from the relatively harmless articles like 'the clergy and celibacy' to Luther's instruction regarding meats. Not sure what it was, but the meats nearly did me in. Thankfully I just felt like I was going to get sick, but never actually got sick. As soon as the clock hit 1315 I was outside in the sunshine getting fresh air, and that made all the difference.
There are some theologians who notoriously make me feel sick (Al Mohler, Page Patterson, Paul Pressler, etc), but this was the first time it was Martin Luther!!!!
