Wicked Tired

Currently Craving: butterscotch pudding and a beer (not together)

Wicked Tired. this week i have been miserably tired. just too much to do. down to my bones tired. and it doesn't help when max goes out of town because then i end up staying up later because there's no reason to go to bed so i get even more tired. last night i was in my bed waiting to fall asleep and feeling sorry for myself for feeling so tired and so sore (my legs are like stones) and i spent a good two hours just wishing someone would rub my back for me.

luckily today i had a massage scheduled. massage is like the best thing possible both before you're pregnant and during the pregnancy. today when i came in julia told me i 'looked tired'. and she knows because she's seen me for years now. so she got me all set up and had me rest in a 'side-lying position' with a pillow to cuddle up to. when she came back in after i got on the table she said ' you look SO comfortable' and BOY was i. the next hour was pure heaven. she hit all the spots that needed it AND she made my legs feel like jell-o instead of bricks. hooray!

the nicest part was that when it was all over my eyes still looked tired but the rest of me was very much rejuvinated. JUST what i needed. sometimes i feel like i could use SuperMom here to cook for me and draw a bath (with rose petals in it) for me and rub my back or comb my hair when i'm trying to go to sleep. i guess in the absence of that, i'll have to make sure to get in the nurturing for myself whenever i can. Massage is the perfect solution. someone to rub my body with lotion while i lay there like a blob and the best part is i don't even have to TALK. sigh, heaven!
