Conundrum

I became sick on Thursday.  Took Friday off to get all better.  Laid around most of Saturday just to be sure.  And by Sunday I felt fabulous.  So fabulous that I did things like clean out the fridge, scrub down the microwave, go shopping, clean cobwebs from places that have been bugging me for months, and I walked up Dead Man's Hill (twice).  Today I woke up sick again.  I guess I over did it.   It probably didn't help that I went to work this morning and facilitated a training where I had to talk for several hours straight.

Here is where the conundrum comes into play.  I want to do all of these things to prepare for Baby B, but I have no energy because I am so busy with work and now I am sick.  I think the sickness is my body telling me to slow down.  But if I stop working now then that means less time with Baby B before  I have to go back to work.  And I can't stop preparing for her to get here.  That just isn't an option.  But if I keep working this hard then I will never get better and then I won't be able to have a good labor.

Ugh.  I guess I just want my cake and to eat it too....
