Not working ends up being a paradoxical kind of relief - doing twelve different things in a day is much harder than just going to work and doing that all day. You have to constantly be your own project manager, although you have very little control over most other people involved in the tasks to be done. <br /><br />But it is nice to be able to just take a break when you want to, and to schedule

Yay for reclaiming YOUR house!<br /><br />Sorry about the feet swelling...but I&#39;m glad to hear the reflux has eased up.

A few summers ago we had our kitchen and bath redone, plus new electric, plumbing, and HVAC. It was VERY stressful. I remember the relief when it was all said and done, and cannot imagine being pregnant through it. Well, I cannot imagine really being pregnant, but that&#39;s a whole other story! Anyway, so glad that&#39;s behind you!<br /><br />My first few weeks of summer vaction are always

Yeah! It&#39;s amazing how liberating it is to have the renovation project (almost) done and the contractors out of your house. <br /><br />It&#39;s almost as great as getting rid of the acid reflux and not vomiting in your own mouth any more.<br /><br />Actually, each one is sweet...but both together? That&#39;s completely decadent!

No more throwing up in your mouth = always a plus.

RE swelling: drink lots of water (even though you have to pee all the time), avoid excessive sodium (including carbonated drinks, even sparkling water), and try to elevate your peds when you sit. I got bad swollen feet after giving birth.

I can&#39;t imagine getting all that done while undergoing renovations! So glad they are done so you can get done too!<br /><br />So sorry about the ankles- I lost mine at around wee 35 &amp; they only came back 3 weeks post-partum. It does suck, but eventually goes away!

Contractor and reno free . . . it sounds dreamy!<br /><br />How terrible to try to nest when your &#39;nest&#39; is under construction. But it sounds like you have made fantastic progress!

Hmmmm....contractor-free and heartburn free at the same time? <br /><br />A connection, perhaps?<br /><br />Yay, you! Go mark your territory!

YAY for getting your house back!!!<br /><br />So, basically you are saying you have to pick one evil over the other? Heartburn or swollen feet? They both suck.
