The nausea hit last week and I have been doing very little other than staring at the computer screen and wishing I were in bed. I can't think very well, and I don't move very fast, and even on the days that the nausea subsides, the fatigue kicks back in.
I keep catching myself saying, "I don't have time to be sick. I'm a busy woman. I have a lot of commitments. I need my body to keep up with my life."
But it hit me this week that its not just my body that's changing. My life is going to have to change, too. I'm not ever going to be able to work as hard as I have been the last several years. Well, I'll be working, for sure, and working hard. But it won't just be my job. I'm going to have to get ready to be working around the clock, and this month is just the first step of that.
I still have another 7 months of working on my own schedule, and I can't afford to pull back on things I've already committed to, but pretty soon I'm going to start having to say 'no'. That isn't something I've ever been very good at. Wish me luck.

Life will change indeed, but you can count on one thing staying completely constant: Support from those who love you.
ah- who wants to work that hard for David anyway?
I got more nauseous just reading about how I'm going to get more nauseous...ha. Thanks for letting me share this with you! I will probably be blogging soon!
