Oh my goodness...oh my goodness

I think I am officially hating life right now. When will this heat wave end? My number one piece of advice to all my girlfriends now is to never have a baby during the summer. Being pregnant in the heat is by far the worse part of my pregnancy. Health-wise I've had a pretty easy go this first time around and have considered myself pretty lucky actually. I've only gained about 26/27 pounds, no stretch marks, no real back pain, had minor morning sickness the first trimester. Overall, it's been a great 9 months. However, since the heat wave, my feet have swollen up so bad, I've had a headache for the past two days, I've sweaty, and just uncomfy overall. Bras are my nemesis as are all shoes and now that I think about it clothes in general really suck too. This has not been fun for me lately. But I've been trying to be good and not complain too much because honestly what good is complaining when there is nothing I or anyone else can do about it. For the past few nights, Shawn and I haven't been able to get to bed before 11pm because it's too miserably hot in the apartment to sleep. I've been super restless, which doesn't bode well with everyone's advice to sleep as much as I can now because I won't be able to once baby comes. I've been trying to do some Arbonne work here and there and other little projects around the house before baby arrives, but it's so bloody hot, I can't function in the sweat shop. Today, I was excited to go to the Chamber of Commerce luncheon because I knew I'd be in the A/C for at least 90 minutes. Tomorrow I'm planning on going to hang out at Barnes and Noble to do work. Yes, I'm going to be one of those annoying customers that I used to hate when I worked there. But tough cookies. This pregnant girl needs a break. Actually, the best solution I've found is hanging out in the pool at my parents' house. The only problem is after chilling in the water for about 3 hours yesterday I ended up with a killer headache because I obviously took in too much sun. Can't a girl get a break? Well enough ranting and raving. I'm now going to lock myself in my bedroom and turn the window A/C unit on to get a little reprieve for the next hour before I have to leave for the Arbonne meeting tonight. I can't believe I'm looking forward to driving to Murrieta tonight simply because that means I'll be in an air conditioned car for a couple of hours. That's so sad. But it makes me realize more and more that I would take Colorado winters over California summers any day of the week.
