Kim's new and improved life journal!

[kimwim8]

Sunday's gonna be good, though. I can sense it.

Ok...Not so much. Things just didn't go my way today, unfortunately. YES, I could have gotten up at 6am to run, like I do on weekdays, but I really thought I could to a nice, cool evening run tonight. Yesterday we helped move for about 9 hours. My back was aching like crazy when I went to sleep, but felt fine when I got up this morning. I'm having a problem with my right arm, but I'll get back to that (that wouldn't have stopped me from running). DH wanted to get into work early today so he didn't have to stay all day. So when I forfeited the early early run this morning, it set me back to tonight. And what hit me around noon? Freakin TOM. And my enemy TOM brought along his normal slew of symptoms with a new one....nausea. So that run just isn't happening. Yes, I have my head hung low. I shoulda/coulda/woulda. I'll be drugging myself up and getting out there in the am. That's for darn sure.

OK, so my arm. (warning - might be a little gross) Here's a freak story for ya. I had bloodwork done on Wed (for the ablation procedure I'm planning). I believe I was the phlebotomists' first ever patient because she just looked scared to death. She wiggled the freakin needle when she was changing vials and she made sure every one (of the 4) were filled all the way up before switching. Anyway, it's now almost a week later & my whole bicep muscle is sore to the touch and I have a 2 inch dark purple bruise line going up my arm from the spot where she put the needle. I called my friend who used to be a phlebotomist and she suggests I call my dr. tomorrow because she could have caused an infection or it might be as simple as she just went through the vein and caused the blood to leak under my skin. Guess I'll call tomorrow.

One last thing. DH, DD, DS and I are heading out on Wednesday to Hershey Park. We're SO excited! We'll be staying over for 2 nights and coming home Friday night. I'll definitely be posting some pics for you guys when I get back.

Kim,

I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling well, sweetie. TOM can really do a number on us WISH ladies, can't it? My turn is coming this week and I am not looking forward to TOM's visit.

I'm sorry to hear about the bloodwork thing. I know when I get bloodwork done, I feel like a human pin cushion because they can never find a vein. I think it's a good idea to have your arm looked at. You definitely don't want an infection to set in. Sending some your way,

Have a great time at Hershey this week! I hope you'll do a trip report when you get back....I'd love to hear about Hershey!

By the way, if you're bringing back Hershey souvenirs for your WISH buddies, I'll take my chocolate in an extra large!

Have a great week, Kim!

You are having a great time at Hershey Park right about now! What fun! I always wanted to go there when we would visit DH's Gma in PA, but it never worked out. I mean, what could be better than Chocolate and amusement park?

 

[kmp1191]

One slammer comin' right up!!!
oh hell, make it a double jen!!!
Me, I'm doin' rum & coke tonight....as usual!! Hey, why mess up a good thing??!! (actually, i'm on my second!!!

Comon guys....kims out of town.... she'll never know!!!

 

[CACruisin']

Darn, missed the party again!! I need to remember to check out the "party scene" on the DIS at night

 

[kimwim8]

You got that right, sista!!

We're BACK!!! It was fun, funny, and all that stuff. But we're just exhausted, so I'll post tomorrow with some pics and stories (because you KNOW there are some )

Thanks for holdin' down the fort for me, my trouble-causing friends (you know who you are )

I'm finally feeling better and probably gained about 20 pounds on this short little trip....so I will be running tomorrow morning - GUARANTEED.

(oh, and I am posting 10 miles walked in the past 3 days. I bet it was double that, but I'm gonna do 10. I feel bad even doing it....but with the way my month was going so far - I need the boost. ) It's already 1/2 way over so I'm in trouble!

Nite Nite, DIS friends!
