No Meds = Mean Mommy & Wife

 I tried to quit smoking yesterday, it lasted about 2 hours. I have no meds, and no nicotine, that is a very lethal combination. Poor family!

I can't take my meds while I'm taking the steroids for the pneuomonia, and man I am hating life. It's so much easier to control my emotions when I have my medication. Yesterday was a very hard day. Not only did I not have my meds, but I attempted to stop smoking. I was miserable! So I smoked, and kept my sanity just a little bit more.

The weather has a lot to do w/ moods. I never really noticed before. I am so doom and gloom today, it's cloudy, rainy and cold outside. I have been at work for 2 hours and I'm ready to go home. Crazy!

I really hate feeling like this. Like there is no fun in me, no happiness, just gloomy. Tomorrow I get to start taking my meds again. I can't wait! I never would've thought I'd be happy to take medicine, but man this feeling depressed/angry/sad/confused/flat all at one time is killing me. Not to mention that I'm hungry ALL the time. I mean ALL the time.

So w/ all that whining out of the way, I can't wait for the sun to shine, for the air to be warm and to sit outside and get some real fresh air and watch my doggies run and play in the yard.

We watched New Moon this weekend. I was really sad I didn't get to see it in theaters. It was great! I watched it twice, once w/ Lexi (who wanted to chit chat the whole way through) and once w/ hubby (who can't sit still or stop playing w/ the TV settings). I almost had to watch it a 3rd time just to see it undisturbed. I swear I have the worst family ever to watch movies w/. None the less I did get to see it and it was fantastic. I can't wait until June when Eclipse will be out in theaters.

I'm also very jealous of all you bloggers who get to go and meet up! Y'all need to come to Nashville darn it. Hubby would not understand me wanting to take off for a weekend to another state. He'd probably fear for my life, but if y'all are here.....

I'm all done whining for today!

I'm Back....

Kind of!

I still feel like crap, and my posts will probably be full of randomness and I warn you of this right away. Since I have this new friend "pneumonia" who wants to hang out w/ me all the time, my Dr gave me meds to deal w/ this new friend. They have me on antibiotics...yay...steroids...I'll be super woman soon...and inhalers, nebulizer all that great stuff. SO, with that being said, I can't take any of my meds to help me deal w/ my other friend "bipolar", and the steroids really screw w/ my emotions. So you see...I can't keep my mind sitting still for very long, my emotions are out of control, and please before you do anything else, pray for my hubby and daughter to make it through these next few weeks w/ me while I am off my meds. God bless them!

So lets start with what happened...sorry if I ramble on to long!

Monday was any other day at work. I was answering phones, getting annoyed w/ the stupid people, and talking w/ my bestie Heather when all of a sudden I was in pain. I mean intense PAIN! I told Heather...OMG I'm in pain, and that was the last she heard from me for a while. I tried to hold it together, I really hate for people to see me cry, but the stinking tears came falling out of my eyes against my will. So I'm sitting there, holding my arm, because my chest and arm were killing me. One of the managers came over and says hey are you alright. Of course I'm alright, just please don't look at me cause I'm crying and I don't want anybody to see. Uh did I mention I am the receptionist so I'm right out there in the middle for all the world to see? So he goes and gets someone, and those two determine that an ambulance must be called. OMG...so now you wanna call more attention upon me by making the ambulance come?!?! I can't even begin to tell you the humiliation I was feeling right along w/ pain. I knew it wasn't my heart, I just couldn't convince them of that.

So I get to the hospital and we waited, and waited, and waited. Ok so as I said it was arm and chest pain, which I knew wasn't my heart but the Dr didn't. I sat there for 2 hours before I seen a Dr, who came in asked me a few questions, walked out, and came back w/ a nurse who had a pill and a shot of morphine for me. That's it, no exam, no tests, no nothing, just drugs and off ya go. So I went home, still in pain because neither the shot nor the pill did anything for me.

Went to the Dr's on Tuesday, he did an EKG just to be sure, and listened to my lungs. Said I had pneumonia but had to have an xray to be sure. So went in for the xray and confirmed what the Dr had said, then started this journey the last few days w/ my new friend.

I will do my very best to get to blogs today, and comment, I have been reading, I promise, I just haven't commented because well I'm filled w/ randomness and am afraid that my comments may not make sense. So if they don't, please forgive me. Just for the next few weeks atleast.

Sorry for the Absence...

Just wanted to leave a quick message and let y'all know I'll be taking a little break from posting until I am better. I have pneumonia in both my lungs and get worn out easily. I'll do my best to get around and read blogs, comment when I can but don't be offended if ya don't see me comment for a while. Being on the computer for just a little while seems to take it's toll on me. Trying to just rest up!

Hope y'all have a great week!

Monday Minute with The Daily Dose of Reality

Ian at The Daily Dose of Reality is now doing Monday Minute. I find Ian hilarious, I love reading his blog, and live every day to run over there and read. Ok his and a few others. So here's what ya do...you go to Ians blog and play along. After of course you read his answers and piss your self from laughing so hard. No, I didn't piss myself, I am at work after all and I don't think they'd much enjoy that, or me!

So the questions are:

 

1. You down with OPP?
2. How did the cow jump over the moon?
3. Does the cheese stand alone?
4. What's the worst that could happen?
5. Would you give me (sorry Ian had to throw myself in there) or Ian one of your kidneys?

So my answers are:

1. I am always down, if it's fun enough.

2. The cow had the help of an unknown species, yet to be determined if it was anything related to earth.

3. The cheese always stands alone in my house.

4. The worst that could happen, aside from Ian ruling the world....Oh goodness, if blogger ever died on me it may just be the end of the world.

5. Ian I'd give you both my kidneys! I swear your blog is one of the first I go to. I just can't comment until I get home because I only have IE at work and commenting on blogs screws it up bad for me.

Ok now go to Ian's blog, grab the button and play along!

 

Yay!

Lexi's bathroom is finally done! So I got some before and after shots for ya! Don't be scared, I know how bad it was! So here we are before:

The floors started coming up terribly. I hate peal and stick tile thingymajigs! It started w/ one little spot and then fell apart.

So here is the new and improved floors and sink:

Along w/ getting the bathroom done, we are now getting the rest of our drive concreted. So that project turned into getting a patio added on the side of the house. The concrete was laid yesterday.

I can't wait to have walls around that and get me a cute little patio set out there!

Oh and look....it's a sign of Spring!

This one is for Heather...this is a picture I am most proud of:
