Ugh, I hate those. Be thankful they are only on your ankle. I once got one on my eyebrow....my whole freakin eye swelled shut. That was fun.

Oh yeah, well I got West Nile Virus last year. Beat THAT.

[ashjohnson80]

Lucky you.

I seriously thought I was dying. Felt like my body was dying anyway. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. Except the guy who gaving it to me. May he rot in hell!

 

[ashjohnson80]

Sooo, how was your day???

 

[Stacerita]

Sooo, how was your day???

Day was alright. Baseball team won tonight...19-4.

 

[ashjohnson80]

Wow, they really whooped up on the other team.

 

[Stacerita]

Yeah, they really killed them. I felt kinda bad. But then I didn't want to tell the kids to go easy and not try their best you know.

 

[ashjohnson80]

dang, I think I just got ANOTHER bite.

 

[Stacerita]

dang, I think I just got ANOTHER bite.

They must really like you.

 

[ashjohnson80]

I'm tasty.

 

[Stacerita]

I'm tasty.

I'll take your word for it.

I have in the neighborhood of 14 mosquito bites right now. D*mn things. They are horrible here.

BUT- DH only got 1 bite. JUST one.

I get eaten alive all the time. I'm even allergic to fleas.

I feel like I am missing out here because I can't stay awake late anymore.

My professor failed my senior project. Either that or she didn't bother turning in a grade. I bawled last night: just what I needed- having a baby and have to go back to school.

I e-mailed her to find out WTH is going on. I just cannot believe it.

Becky, I never had morning sickness but 2nd & 3rd trimesters had crazy heartburn both times (remember, of four kids I gave birth to two only).

Solution for me? Bottles of green tums everywhere. Most rooms of the house, in the car, at work, etc. I think I swallowed about 10 bottles a week! Doctor said they were just calcium and wouldn't hurt me, so I went to town.

Although my kids all said I was old last week. My brother (11 months my junior) is totally cool, but I am old because I don't know what 50 Cent sings (and I suggested that he ought to call himself 50 Cents, because he is plural!) and I listen to Toby Keith. Also I will not watch something called "Pimp My Ride" with them, and bro will.

Now they are making me sick!

I can't wait to see pics of this baby of yours.

Me either!! I'll post my first sonogram, just as soon as I can get one!!

Well, I ended up gagging in the bathroom for 20 mins at work today- no puking though, so that's not too bad. The ladies at work were so nice (I was working at a different branch today, but news travels fast and they all knew already).

But this evening I feel alright. Very tired, though, which is unfortunate, because my mom made me homemade chicken and noodles (I'm her favorite child now, since I'm carrying the first grandbaby). And, that's fine: she's being super nice and helpful- I'll take that over "the usual." Anway- I'm too tired to drive to her house 25 minutes away to eat the chicken and noodles.

But my grandma is there and she's going to have surgery tomorrow and stay at my mom's house afterwards, so I'll go tomorrow. Chicken and noodles are totally as good the next day.

Just catching up!

Yes, saltines for morning sickness. Keep them by the bed and eat one before you get up in the morning. I also had to have meds for nausea when I was preggers - and was hospitalized for dehydration and iv meds for a few days :-(

Knock wood..not one skeeter bite yet this year. I must not be out at the right times, because my dh is b#&*@ing non stop about them becuase he is outside all day and evening. DD just got home from camp and she is covered in bites - praying no West Nile.

Sorry about your paper Becky...that bites! Did you ever find anything out?

Got a new work laptop this wee! So awesome - it only takes 2 minutes to boot up instead of the 10 my old one did (and it was only 2 years old).

Feel ill cause I pigged out on chicken nuggets and jalapeno poppers b/c I am alone for dinner and I was lazy. ughhhh

 

[beckmrk04]

I ate a banana nut muffin for dinner. Nothing sounds good.

No- my professor hasn't e-mailed me back. I seriously can't believe it. I'm thinking she is just pissed off at me/my situation, and decided not to grade it. I KNOW it was a good paper (I'm really not trying to sound conceited, but I do write well and I'm positive she wouldn't have failed my paper on account of poor writing). She never sent an explanation or anything. SO- I'm waiting.

It's really not something I want to get worked up over right now- especially with a baby on the way. If all else fails, I'll sign up to take the senior project again- it's not a "class" so I won't have to go to campus very often. I just hope if I have to re-enroll they haven't changed the graduation requirements, because then I'll be screwed and I'll have to take more classes.
