spring

March 30th, 2009

I didn’t mean to disappear for most of March, but there was some actual spring weather here for a while then, of course, the stomach flu hit and ruined all the fun. Now the snow is back and spring seems far off again. But there is spring up on the shelf if nothing else. There is another reason I was away this month and have been a crummy blogger since January really: I’m pregnant! 20 weeks today. I’m not one of those women who bear this burden well. It’s pretty much bitching and moaning for most of the nine months in my case (apologies to my friends and family for all the whining).  I got down to my studio this morning and was actually shocked at how fast my sewing machine sewed.  So yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve done any sewing at all.  And I have a to do pile to prove it. But the first trimester is really over now (not just technically over) and I have some energy back, so things might just start happening again. I hope to be here more than I have been, with actual things I’ve made to show you, but if that doesn’t happen you’ll know why.

    Congrats! If you are anything like me, the first trimester lasts at least 20 if not 24 weeks. So, hopefully you are on the other side and feeling much better soon.

    Congratulations to you! What wonderful news! I was so sick during the first trimester of both pregnancies and I whined a lot about it – still do just remembering it. And I ignored the blog for three months or so. But it was good to come back and everyone was still there. Nice to see you again!
