Hello possessed hyperactive person is that really you?

I am reaching week 33 of my second pregnancy and the meaning of nesting has been taken to a whole new level. I remember being somewhat like this with my first daughter Bianca, the memories not too faded as it was only 19 months ago she was born. But this time I seem to be slightly maniacal!

Yesterday I cleaned the car inside out, gardened for an hour, mopped and vacuumed for the third time this week. Feeling slightly worn out I lay down which resulted in a dizzy head and the vomiting began. I was shocked to have pushed myself to such levels.

The nervous energy isn't a bad thing, the days are going by quickly, I am obviously getting a lot of things done that have been in my 'to do' pile for a while, but at the same time my ability to wind down/relax once Bianca is in bed, is increasingly difficult. I'm up and down off the couch and feeling guilty at 8.30 at night for not being engrossed in some purposeful task.

So this blog is a therapy of sorts, hopefully it will distract me enough to stop with the squirel like behaviour, at least to give myself a break before life with two children becomes a reality.
