hurrah!

i've been feeling better the past few days. =) still queasy, still nauseous, but at least i don't feel like i'm DYING anymore! and no more coughing! hallelujah! i can finally sleep through the night!

it's been hard to focus on anything pleasant when i was feeling awful, so i just kept myself busy. i'm thankful to the Lord for sending orders my way. i sure felt better when i didn't have to think about how i was feeling.

this is a crazy trimester. my hormones have completely taken over my mind. i've been crying over really silly stuff, like seeing an old man cook paella on discovery travel and living; an ad about an olympic swimmer saving sharks; a girl buying pastries from a convent. my cravings are for really weird things as well, food i normally wouldn't eat like paksiw na isda, and ginger candy. why can't i crave pasta? or ice cream? or chocolate cake? you know, normal food! =)

oh, i forgot, i love sandwiches now. (that's normal at least.) been making a lot of them as they help with the queasiness. and i get to have lots of calcium because i put a lot of cheese in them. =) i esp like them grilled, like the one in the picture. got the recipe from nigella (where else?), she spikes her mayo with worcestershire sauce! it's so yummy!
