Yesterday was 26 weeks. I finally made an admission post on Facebook because I'm going to a party at my parents' house tomorrow, and apparently none of their friends know yet. I figured posting now was easier than the in-the-moment surprise and questions.
So, one weird symptom I had never heard of that is apparently a real thing: bad eyesight. I have always had better than 20/20 vision, and I'm weirdly proud of it. But now, everything is blurry! It's mostly the TV and the computer, so I think it has a lot to do with glare, but I have found that everything gets a little clearer when I squint a little. This goes away, I guess, so there's really nothing to do about it, but isn't that strange?
Also, the nausea is coming back! It's nowhere near as bad as it was in the beginning (at least, not yet) but it strikes in the afternoons and just generally feels crappy. I think I have to learn to be a morning person, now.
Other than that, it's just been a busy couple of weeks. J has been traveling a lot but is done now for awhile (hooray!), both cars have been in for repairs (one broken fuel pump, one unfortunate deer collision), and the first application deadline of the season is rapidly approaching, which means I will be sequestered and furiously writing letters of recommendation until the end of time (or Thursday). This weekend is Parents' Weekend, though, so after a very, very busy today and tomorrow, we have a few days of peace, and, most importantly, quiet.
I have to go work now, plus I just ate some oatmeal and my stomach hurts now.
P.S. I apologize for all the parenthetical references. I just can't seem to stop.
