I'm so sorry Rachel, but it will all be worth it in the long run. Just take care of yourself, and schedule in some time for some relaxation. Pamper yourself, and lay back and enjoy this pregnancy to the hilt!

Yep, I remember--I'm letting go. I'm not too happy about it, but I'm starting small. Boy, wait till I see the doctor again--he told me to slow down and do what "needed" to be done--not, go ahead, get pregnant with your plate still full!

Alas, I'm sadly probably going to quit coaching also. Not something I want to do, but it's the easiest (saddest [:(]) one to cut and things can go on without me!

Rachel, Don't apologize, the most important thing is that you take care of yourself and that baby. (still smiling btw). And the doctor said you needed to let something go because you were doing too much. Remember? I'm sure you do, but this is the worried auntie coming out in me!

Hugs to you!

See update in first message!

Thanks! Nice of you to say that!! [;)]

Rachel-
What a great idea to get everyone excited for the walk a thon! Kudos kudos!! :)

Thanks Rachel!! I'm pretty fond of my avatar. I've been meaning to add it forever, but never got around too it. I'm so happy I finally got off my fanny and did it! I wish I could get everything accomplished that I've been meaning too. Maybe this will be the beginning of a trend for me.

Deidre,

Love the new avatar. Too precious!!


Captain Catherine,

I sent you an email about the "apples"!

Oh, honey...those aren't apples, that's double fudge fat-free brownies that actually taste like the real thing!! You're my hero!! I'll be watching my inbox for the number!

No, I haven't thought about that at all.

However, I was at the "Take a Breather" black tie gala tonight for the Arkansas Chapter of the American Lung Association. DH is funded through the national organization and so he was being recognized tonight. My feet are killing me. Best of all, I was sitting at the table with the Executive Director of the Chapter and as I watched them raise $200,000 in one fell swoop it dawned on me to ask if she'd ever mentored a not-for-profit beginner. Girl! She sure has, there's an in state organization that you can join and they sponsor and give scholarships to training sessions for fundraising etc. I have her number for you to call!

How do you like them apples [;)]?
