I love fall and it’s helping with my morning sickness, I think. Now that it’s cooler I am feeling much better. Of course, that could be because I’m nearing the end of the 1st trimester, but maybe it’s both.

I’m happy today to be wearing my favorite maternity shirt. I’m also happy that most of my maternity clothes will work for this pregnancy since I’ll be at my heaviest in the winter and early spring. There are some sweaters that I got for my pregnancy with Jesse that I never got to wear because of my bed rest. I’m thrilled to be able to wear them this time.

Facebook is way too addicting and such a time waster. But I love that I’ve been able to reconnect with some friends with whom I had lost touch.

The house hunt on Saturday was disappointing. Foreclosed homes are in such rough shape. One had real potential until we discovered the mold in the basement. So we press on in the hopes of finding something sooner rather than later.

I’m not happy about this bailout thing. As a taxpayer, the thought of $1T added to the national debt makes me cringe. However, I do believe the economists who say that long term this will be a lot less worse than it could have been otherwise. But it still rankles.

I believe the debate should go forth tomorrow night. That said, I also believe that it is important for the Senators to be on the Hill to tend to do their jobs. But then they can hop their campaign planes for the debate in the south.
