New to Blogging/Intro

I have read several of my friend's blogs and thought this might be good for me. I am currently dealing with pregnancy depression, mostly from being across the country knowing only 2 people and from feeling helpless and disgusting physically.  I always heard how pregnancy was so beautiful.  Well, that's a big, fat lie lol You get hair everywhere, gain weight, have disgusting body odors, waddle more than a penguin and get stretchmarks.  It will most definitely be worth it in the end, but for now....it is depressing.
I think maybe writing daily might help me vent and get my feelings out. We shall see how it goes.
Today I am 36 1/2 weeks pregnant, so we are nearing the finish line.  I cannot wait to have Jensen in my arms.  And I look forward to losing weight and getting back into shape (at least a shape OTHER than round!).  Soon after he is here, we should be moving back to Ohio, where our friends and family are.  And we plan on working towards our forever house...cannot wait!  So much good to look forward to, only a few more months to muddle through the hard times.

"It doesn't matter how long we may have been stuck in a sense of our limitations. If we go into a darkened room and turn on the light, it doesn't matter if the room has been dark for a day, a week, or ten thousand years -- we turn on the light and it is illuminated. Once we control our capacity for love and happiness, the light has been turned on."
