My running last week is sadly how running has gone over the last four weeks.  From nausea to sleepiness to this stupid cold that I've had for 3 weeks, the best I can do is sporadic.  Hopefully this week is easier.

Right now, just to give you more of an update than I did last week, I am 13 weeks pregnant (1/3 of the way through, yay!).  Hopefully the nausea and tiredness are almost over.  I got to hear the heartbeat last week.  And no, it's not Burt's baby.  And double no, it's not going to be a girl.

Just kidding.  I worry a little about a girl (you know, girls are icky), but a girl would be okay, I guess...but we'll find out in January.  And my due date is June 1, but the baby will come early because I'll have another c-section. 

Things at school have been incredibly weird, as our principal is no longer working for the school as of two weeks ago.  It's a looooong story, but the school will move on.  I may be switching jobs after Christmas, which'll be weird, but I'll know more about that in a week or so.

Now that I started "watching" blogs again, I'm remembering how guilty I feel when those emails roll in and I'm not checking people's blogs.  Maybe I'll do it on the weekends.

An easy 3 before everyone came over for turkey.  I'm keeping running slow somewhere between slightly above 10 minute pace and slightly below.  Don't really have a need for anything else right now!

I finally bought a treadmill and I have been using it lately, even though it's been pretty nice outside.  I'm glad I have one, because I don't want to go out when it starts getting icy, and I also don't want to buy bigger winter running clothes.  But I should probably force myself to get outside when I can wear shorts.
