Just thought I would add that the wind is kicking ass and its a blizzard out there.....Imagine that.....Gonna be one of them days. (that is what I get for bitchin about the weathermen)

Preparing for my microbiology test which is going to be on Monday!:finger:

You'll be your wonderful self soon, Veiled!

Ice, Ice, and more ice to be followed by 8 inches of snow. All week I'm stuck in the house so I look forward to getting out on the weekends...not this weekend. We're stuck. Oh well. I am feeling good otherwise. Now that I'm past the 1st trimester, I'm allowing myself one cup of coffee in the morning and it has made a huge difference on how I feel. As of right now, caffeine is my only substance addiction....lol

Stay warm! :brrr: :brrr:

Hey Nam! Glad you are feeling good. I hope you don't get smowed in too long!We've had our winter for this year - it lasted 2 days! It will now be rain until July, although the rain will get warmer as the months go by!

I'm doing ok. I just did a quick visit to my parents' place. I went without telling them I was coming, so they were pleased to see me and I knew my brother didn't know I was there. It was still hard, but it felt much safer with just me and my parents there. I'm still exhausted though, so off for an early night.

Wishing all forum members a peaceful weekend!

piglet.

waves.

gacks

and hugs. just having a sleepy day.

Nam, glad to hear you are past the first trimester! That always felt like I was "in the clear" after that :) I am so tickled for you. I hope you are feeling well and not getting any growing pains.

Today/night. Whatever it is I am falling apart. Forced myself down to rest because hubs invited his dad over for Sunday supper. (MIL went out of town). So I am supposed to do the whole chicken fried steak, new potatoes and green beans, fried okra, biscuits and blah blah... Bust out the nice dishes that I am scared to death of letting anyone use.

Now mind you for the past 6 months it is hard for me to open a friggen can of soup and call it supper. Everyone was tickled they got fried chicken for supper but I had to make sure I did not lose my touch frying... Seems the pre fab shit I made tonight/last that I had the directions was what gave me grief but I felt like I was back in my element doing the "from scratch" parts and it was easy.

Add that into the very windy weather blowing loudly which is freaking me out. So I am woken to the worst cramps to put it lady like (y'all know what that is) and feeling like I am about to hurl and as I sit up I realize I am having a full blown attack. I am trying to type to feel better while I am waiting for the pepto a I drank and hefty xanax dose to kick in and settle me and my stomach down!

Does not help as I go for the sprite out side to help settle my stomach I go sliding through a huge dog piss puddle. My poor old girl who is damn near 100 pounds (so big puddles) is getting an issue "holding it" over night recently. I mean she is at the top age these dogs normally are dead at, have the eyes greying over, now she can't hold her pee, and see has actually tripped and fallen a few times in the past couple weeks. It sucks because she has been around as long as half my kids and for 3 marraiges! I know her time is coming but I hate seeing all the sign of aging. Her teethe are even worn down to the gums (not the canines) and the vet said she was too old for me to spend the money to fix.

Oh I need to go to sleep. My in laws have been so good at giving me my space since being here so I have to make sure the house looks nice since it will be the first time one of them comes in since helping us unpack. I hate stress. I hate silly stress even more. Why do they call this a mental disorder again? Damn it sure feels physical!

I have slept for three nights with all the lights in the house off! I still wake up, but at least my scared of the dark thing is getting better.

It's snowing and freezing rain is coming down, so I think I'll be able to weasel out of work today. I'll stay home and give myself a manicure and watch episodes of "Bones" on Netflix. A perfect, relaxing day.

Linda-Good luck with your test. I always hated Micro and Statistics. I struggled terribly. Let us know how it goes.

Today I am having a good day so far. I actually slept until 6 a.m. and I feel good.

I am irritated about one thing, a zoo keeper at the Denver Zoo was killed by a Cheetah or Leopard, cannot remember. But, they killed the Cat. The keeper did not follow protocol and paid with his life, he knew better or you would think in would know better, but that poor animal was only doing what wild animals do. Grrrr......

Doing okay today. Yesterday was rough. I know that I have been hiding... keeping away from the forum. I started taking my meds again and feel better... though I am frustrated about needing to be on them.

Looking forward to payday!

Home again, wanting to communicate and can't very well do so with everyone in bed asleep, including my sleeping husb., who might possibly have Strep throat, so naturally I should understand.

Wild, Wild successful, emotional weekend .......both unable perhaps somewhat unwilling to put any of it into words, as I'm full of fear tonight, regarding, in general, what I should and should not be thinking, or saying. Guess my 'judge' is working overtime, and he certainly has me convinced tonight. ...........Many mixed emotions, throughout the day. Some of which were pure joy.
