Preparing for this vacation has meant working double-time Monday and Tuesday to get everything al set and ready to go at work. (That’s the bummer with having a vitally necessary job – can’t just up and leave!) Yesterday I didn’t get home until after 8pm, and then I got to clean the house and pack. My legs are NOT happy with me. At all. I only slept for about 4 hours total (still have more work to do this morning before our flight this afternoon) and I woke up with leg cramps. Yesterday I woke up with a pinched nerve in my hip, and it seems to be re-occurring at the moment. Legs are TOTALLY not happy with me being on my feet all day. Yes, I’m lucky that it’s just my leg. But now I’m seriously worried about how they’re going to do on the plane…. if they’re cramping bad now, how are they going to like being seated for many hours? Yeeks. And yes, I’ve already reserved aisle seats for all my flights. I’m going to have to make sure I stretch them frequently. (And the good part is that we do have two layovers, which stretches out the trip but allows us to walk around airports for a while before getting on another plane.)

But oh boy does my hip hurt. :(

And what is with this constant heartburn the last two days? Yesterday I was trying to figure out what I ate that was causing me heartburn. Now I know… it’s everything. Every time I eat I get the acid burning in the back of my throat. Blech. Hello Maalox.

Off to get my hair cut and pick up a few things before we leave! I will have my laptop with me so don’t be surprized to see posts – and belly pics – even while I’m gone. ;)
