Goodbye little ant infested apt./warehouse...
It caught us completely off guard! We didn't have the money for a baby! How were we supposed to have a baby in such a gross little apartment/warehouse. We didn't have time for a baby! I was going to school, Tiu was working all day! Who would watch the baby!!! We didn't have any real family close by, most of our friends weren't in HI anymore. Who would help us? We thought of every possible solution to all our problems and came up empty handed. There was no way we could do this in HI. As we came to the very depressing realization that we had just dragged our car almost half way across the world, paid out our bum to ship loads of boxes and sacrificed everything we had in FL to get to HI, and that after All of that, that we now needed to actually turn back around and go back...Ahhh!! Very frustrating. To top everything off, Tiu began to have a family problem with his boss (his boss was his cousin's husband who we suspected was not treating her very well...) In the end Tiu was left without a job, I was pregnant, we had over 800 T-shirts in a tiny apt. and a mess of stuff that we had hauled over from FL. What to do!!?? The clock was ticking, NOW not only did we need to leave but we had a very limited time to do so, about 3-4 weeks to be exact. We needed to sell the car, sell all our business stuff, sell all our personal stuff, pack and sooo much more! To top everything off I was sooo incredibly miserable. I couldn't eat anything, I couldn't sleep more than 30-40 min at a time from the constant migraines and nausea. I felt completely bed ridden. But there was no time to relax and recoup, I had to keep going. I can still remember night after night off packing and walking through a sea of CRAP that was everywhere in our house. I can remember covering my mouth trying my best not to puke my guts out all over our apt., foodland, BYUH...pretty much everywhere! Then to top it all off EVERYONE in the entire neighbor hood decided to barbecue (ALL DAY!!!) It was the worst i had ever felt in my life (so far). I didn't sleep a wink for 1 1/2 days (or more) before our flight. It was just straight packing. There was so much stuff that even hours before our flight there was still stuff i didn't know what to do with. At one point i actually ran to the dorm rooms and dumped a big box of stuff in the courtyard and just ran off...haha. Thankfully, with allot of stress and some luck Me and Tiu managed to get most of our stuff either sold, given away, packed in storage or shipped out (except the car, it got parked at Tiu's aunts house). We had decided to do another event in Utah in hopes to make a bit more money before getting to Fl so we still had bit of a journey ahead.
Weird cravings- Beef jerky- I must have had some kind of iron deficiency or something because out of the blue one day i wanted a TON of beef jerky! I ate about 1 1/2 big bags of jerky in one day! That was probably more food than i had eaten in like weeks!
regular cravings- all kinds of fruits and vegetables (I hated most meat) - I lost like 10lbs the first trimester.
