My appt. with the neuro-ophthalmologist is this morning. We had to wake up at 4:30.
The guy in front of us at the Starbucks drive-through paid for our order. It couldn't have happened on a better day. I'm so nervous for what we'll hear about my eye later.
i was having a sluggish morning and suddenly realized: SCANDAAAAAL tonight! then i remembered: VAMPIRE DIARIES AND THE ORIGINAAAAALS! so no i'm excited about the day.

Good luck with your appt, I hope you get good news!

I am super fucking pissed about this 'chiropractor' that I was going to.
I had a few adjustments and didn't feel any better after any of them, worse after some. He said my cervical spine (neck) was out of alignment and that is what is causing numbness in fingers and toes, and all of the twitching and pain and fucked up things my body has been doing. Fine, I wanted an answer and I was hoping he could help me. I went to an 'X-ray' viewing and there was a group of people there, he talks for about 45 minutes about how if your spine is messed up you are basically waiting to die. Told 2 stories of women with MS. One he helped, and now she doesn't walk with a cane, off of all MS medications... and then another woman with MS that couldn't afford him so she didn't come back. A year later she had an aneurysm from the MS medication and DIED. And of ONLY she let him help her. UGH. So anyway, I meet with him afterwards and he says I need 64 adjustments to get better. And that he can tells me that he has never met my children (he did meet my son!) but that he can tell that I love my children and I want to live so I should go to him. For ONLY $1600.00. Must be paid RIGHT now (or monthly payments, but he wanted money right then). And he will not continue with what insurance covers because he only takes people who are dedicated to their health.
I walked out crying. We can't afford that. Then I got fucking PISSED! How dare he scare me with death, and MS and saying I don't love my children.
The NCIS recovery team got my laptop, power cord and wireless card out of the building!!! Two and a half weeks after the shooting, and I can finally REALLY get back to work!
I find out today if I'll be allowed to go to work tomorrow, wheee! We had an "exception" from the shutdown that let us work using last year's funding, but apparently that's already run out and even though I'm a contractor and have plenty of funding, I might not be allowed to work or even be in the building. And honestly there is nothing to do because everyone else around us is gone. It's been so depressing and anxious at work this week.
Ugh, I switched back to diapers at night for Jax and he woke up with hives on his little arse. I just slathered him in triple cream and he already takes claritin so I'm hoping it will clear up soon.
I'm seeing a new pcp this morning after my appointment last week. I never had the chance to post about it on here but basically I am/was having an issue with feeling shaky and it started when I started celebrex. My old pcp told me that it's either hypoglycemia from the way I eat due to the gastroperesis(which I googled and is common) or stress. That was it, he just sent me on my merry way. I think I'm also going to become a AD lifer, my OCD just sucks. It's not the worst it's ever been at all but I am just sick of the constant low level of worry that I have. Our therapist also thinks it will help relationship-wise since now I dwell on every little thing no matter how insignificant. So, we will see.
I finally having good runs again. I may hit the 1000 mark Sunday. 2 months late but at least I'm back :-) :-) :-) I want a cinnamon roll BAD! But I don't feel like driving to get one. I want to buy all the things at lll (I know I know) and on workout gear!
We don't have running water inside my work. The building obviously does, but in our office and production area, we don't. Because I was gone last week, no one ordered bottled water so we're out. This is especially problematic because I drink about a gallon of water per day, not including any tea or coffee I might drink. I filled up my gym bag with individual bottles of water, but I don't think it will be enough. /small, poor company problems
I called in sick to work today. Right now I'm eating cereal out of the box and watching last weeks Greys. Later I plan to go for a run, get caught up on laundry, go to Joann's and pick out a Halloween costume pattern for Andy. And maybe get my hair done.
H had a panic attack while driving yesterday. I am worried about him. He has high anxiety and his dad had severe panic attacks that sent him to the hospital for several years in his 40s.
I feel cute today. New maternity clothes do wonders for my mood.
My cleaning lady is in Greece for a MONTH. I have no idea how I'll survive. I'll have to scrub my own toilet guys!!! Oh maybe I could get a service in the meantime? But then I'd have to be home since I don't know those people?
Yawn. I'm already looking forward to tomorrow's nap.
Asian Hooters tonight, yay!
H told me yesterday that SIL told him that we'd be rooming with his mom in CR for three nights. It's only three nights, but ugh. I love her and she's a nice lady but she gets on my nerves. And I just like having my own space on vacations. Oh well. We just have to book a room for our last night in San Jose and then we're set for this trip!
I'm at NYU with my sister and nephew. He has to have another stent put in his heart. He just had one implanted in June. It didn't work. Poor baby is only 20 months. This is his 6th heart surgery.
Tonight I am having a girl's night with my mom. yay! I love her. Meal out, drinks and a hotel stay. Then I get to go shopping ALLLLLL by myself on Friday.
Jack hasn't watched tv since Monday and his attitude and behavior has improved so much. He doesn't even ask for it. We have such pleasant conversations in the mornings. It is really nice.
I stopped at CFA on the way to work and brought in some mini sandwiches for the office. I hate their politics, but their chicken is delicious.
I wish I had been able to take the day off tomorrow, like my boss told me to, but I have a call at 10 AM that I am running, so I am not counting tomorrow as a half day even though I am leaving immediately after aformentioned call.
Calamity, I am sorry that guy was a quackified jackass. I hope you get real, solid answers and help soon. How are you feel otherwise?
The last few days I haven't felt well, my legs are constantly twitching and I get tired easily, especially walking up stairs. I noticed I have another swollen gland in my neck. Doing my best not to stress or theorize because I just come up with bad things, lol.
Thanks for asking!
I'm still hoping I wake up one morning and magically feel better!
I'm wearing a dress for the third time this week bc I haven't don't wash and all my work pants are dirty. Lol that I'm willing to shave and dress up but not run a quick load of Dryell.
Today is my Friday. I leave for my girls weekend tomorrow! I'm SO beyond excited, it's ridiculous. We're staying in a cabin in the mountains - take out tomorrow night, spa day, lunch, dinner, and bar hopping on Saturday, and brunch and shopping on Sunday. Squee!
M is starting to master the pouty lip. It's a little heartbreaking!
Monday I made apple pie. Yesterday I made chocolate chip cookies. Today I'm hoping to get motivated to make those pumpkin doughnut muffins someone here mentioned.
I'm really regretting RSVPing yes to the wedding we're going to on Saturday, and I feel kind of bad about that because we have to travel the same distance they traveled to come to our wedding. We just really don't have a lot of wiggle room in our budget this week, which means we can't give them the kind of monetary gift I'd like, and also means neither of us can pick up new clothes (which we don't NEED to do, we're both just used to buying new outfits when a wedding comes up, and I don't feel like we have anything formal enough for this particular one - this sounds dumb as I'm typing it).

Ok, seriously. What's with all the baking?
Every time you post, my stomach growls.
I don't buy pre-made so I bake.
If I had more time I would consider making all our crackers too, cause I'm crazy like that, lol.
I hope to bake two or three times a week now that the kids are in something. I like baking. It makes me feel accomplished and I love eating my creations, lol.
