I HOPE TO GOD this is an April Fool's joke...that Peter Dinklage is being replaced on Game of Thrones. The more I think about it the more I'm like newp.
Today is my LAST DAY of work! YEEHAW! And I'm kind of pissed because I will not get my last check in time for my departure...our payroll person didn't submit it in time. So it will be fedexed to me. GRR
Ugh, sorry Fuss. Can you roll up a sweater and make yourself a donut cushion to sit on?
My Sunday was spent in the car. ILs house for lunch, my dad's for early dinner, my mom's for dessert. I also discovered that it seems that I'm right on schedule to develop the well documented gynecological issues that seem to run through my family. Yay for reliable genetics I guess. ::grumble grumble::
DS' big boy mattress should be showing up on Saturday. Poor kid has no space in his crib. If I lay him in the center of his mattress, he has about 5 inches above his head and 5 inches at his feet. If he tries to roll over, he ends up with his belly against the crib slats and has to wiggle himself back to the middle of his mattress to finish the roll. We hear a lot of thumps, bumps and "oh, man"s through the night.
I got him a big quilt this weekend, so now I need to spend the week buying and washing sheets and waterproof mattress covers. Oh, and I need to pick up those mesh bed rail thingys. And, stupid Target is always out of full sized sheets in the good colors. WTF.
Congrats Muddled!! I too paused and wondered if that was an April Fools joke, but you threw it out there so subtly.
Fuss, that's terrible. Would Preparation H cream help in the interim until you're able to see your doctor?
Today is day one of my spring break. So far I've gone to see my therapist, sat in a coffee shop and read on my kindle, and gone to a nursery to get pots. My neighbor gave me three baby aloe plants, so I needed a real container to plant them in. Exciting break! I wasn't expecting to accomplish so much already.
Sooooo you should prob stop reading this post right here, muddled.
Ok, are we alone? Good. The rest of this post is weapons-grade TMI, because I spent my whole weekend laid up with only the worst hemorrhoids EVAR. I think one is thrombosed. It's so awful that Saturday morning I was standing in the shower, coughing my cough I've had for a MONTH, and just crying my eyes out.
The good news in all this is that my ILs arrived Saturday and so I actually WAS able to stay off my feet all weekend. I'm doing a bit better today but being back in my work chair all day is going to be hell, I can already tell. Someone please save me from my butt!
I feel very very sorry for you. Those are the worst, especially thrombosed. When they have to cut those, that's the worst pain I have ever experienced.

My weekend was ok... I came home on Friday to a large maple tree in the middle of my driveway. H decided he didn't want it there anymore and apparently Friday was the day to cut it down. I had to park at the neighbor's house.
Saturday was spent cleaning up tree limbs and branches from said tree before going to my parents house for an Easter get together with my brother, sister and her H, and 5 of the grandkids.
Sunday began with DS waking up far too early and bursting into our room announcing that the Easter Bunny came and brought him a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. He made so much noise he even woke up H. So we all got up and did the Easter thing. After the egg hunt, H disappeared to the neighbor's house and I began a 4 hour fight with DS to get him to take a nap (so that I could take one too). After dinner, DS went to bed, H watched tv, and I tried to prepare for my morning meeting without falling asleep and drooling on my forms.
Maybe I should call the doc and ask if I can go ahead and get an epidural now lolol.
This is a good idea. Maybe a funny story will help too.
When I had an anal fissure I went to the instacare to get checked out. I am generally a pretty plesant person to doctors and nurses but they were super busy that day and so I was trying to be extra nice/patient. After the doctor did my exam he said "you are just the nicest patient I have had all day" I told the doctor "um, of course I am being nice to you. I knew what sort of exam I was in for!" He laughed and then added to my mortification by comparing the exam I just had to "poking around in the hood of a car"
Hope everything is okay with you Chirp. Is your vagina okay?
Yeah, all's good in the hood. Basically, for the past handful of cycles I've had the bulk of my period all in one day.
My mom, her sisters and her mom all developed benign uterine fibroids starting in their early 30s and all had early hysterectomies (around age 40) because they had got to the point where they had to have a sort of D&C each cycle. No, they don't all see the same doctor/practice, I already asked about that.
I have an appointment with my gyn in the beginning of June, so I'll bring it up with him again then. The family history is already in my chart, but I'll let them know that things are starting to rear their head.
