I'm Currently Feeling: 


Nesting Instinct - Not Getting It


Energy level is so down and I am more tired than normal.

Yesterday I was up at 6 a.m., got our driver set off in the morning, Dan arranged for the day, took my son to soccer for an hour and came home, showed some potential tenants the house next door and then did some carpet cleaning and washed floors.

By that time, my back was sore and I was wiped. Dan came home early and I fell asleep for an hour between 4 and 5, and by 10 I was shattered again.

I need some energy as I have so much to do but just don't have the umph to do them.

Well,I bet the nesting instinct looses to the full-time-mother-of-two-kids instinct...

Take it easy.
6 more weeks to go,just do one thing at the time and try rest.That way you'll have more energy...

Yes, kids are home for summer holidays and are being quite a handful. LOL Can't wait until new tenants move in next door with some kids so mine won't be so bored! How can they be bored with a new sandbox, new pool and trampoline? I don't know!

I know the feeling, so much to get done, so little energy!
With my last pregnancies I went slightly mad on nesting in the last 2 weeks and cleaned like a mad woman, so theres still time for you yet!
