Yeah, it's hard to scrub it off the walls too


oh man, we went to get the car washed (hubby avoided it for MONTHS-- I have no clue why) .. came back and the windows and doors were all closed.. nephew was still sleeping (nearly noon) and there's dishes everywhere, garbage falling over in the corner.. and the STENCH hit us.




Boy stink!!

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww


whipped open all the doors, windows, directed the boys to start cleaning up. Slammed some doors and suprise nephew woke up plugged in my scent disk thingie.. ahhhhhhhhh order restored.

My bf used to have a dirty room. Dishes on the floor that would grow mold. It was gross! Then he turned clean by the time he was 21 or so and now he gets upset if I don't use a coaster for drinks. He's not like Danny Tanner (thank God!) but he's a lot more clean and organized, which is cool.

Speaking of DN, I think the reality of his upcoming deployment is hitting him hard.

He's worried about how the expereince will change him - they have had a few trainings on how some people come back and have problems adjusting to civilian life again. But as he pointed out.. from day one they are trained to deal with the emotional side of war/weapons/death it's part of their job.

My cousin just started college and she told me she was doing homework in the computer room on campus. All of a sudden someone touches her cheek and the side of her face and she freaks out and turns around. She said she was wearing headphones too and she noticed it was some 31 year old guy that is a T.A. and international student. She got grossed out and told him to leave her alone.

OMG! That is creepy!!!

I had a couple encounters with men who made me extremely uncomfortable in college. One was a guy in my dorm who was just... off somehow. One day I came back from a football game, and my new roommate said, "Oh, your boyfriend was just here looking for you, but he had to leave." I didn't have a boyfriend at the time. She described him to me, said she'd invited him into the room to wait; she said the whole time he was in the room, his eyes darted around to every object in it, as if cataloging it all in his memory. CREEPY!!!

He stalked me on campus, would just suddenly cross my path between classes or to/from meals. He finally came by to ask me out, but by then I was totally freaked out and just told him as nicely as I could that I was not interested. Then a couple of guys I knew (who knew how scared I was) paid him a visit and told him to stay away from me. Whew! He left me alone after that.

Then another year I was in the computer lab alone one afternoon. Like an idiot, I sat in the back of the room (far from the door), so people walking by wouldn't disturb me as I worked. A guy came in and sat near the door. It bothered me that we were there alone, but he was all the way on the other end of the room, right? Well, then he started making noises like he was really ticked off. THEN he started pounding on the keyboard! THEN he bashed his head repeatedly on the table!!!

CRAP! I'd have to walk right next to him to get out of the room!!!

He looked up at me as I was thinking what the **** I was going to do, and started shouting, "SHE'S AFRAID! SHE'S AFRAID!" like a freakin' robot!

I managed to pack up all my stuff and slowly walk out, and was thankful he didn't follow me. I never, ever sat in the back of the room again.

Okay... I went to the Dr. today. For my follow up to go over my test results...

Basically my tests came back fairly normal. The only thing she could really pin point was that my testosterone levels are on the high end of normal.Almost NOT normal.. But still normal. She thinks that maybe I am super sensitive to the testosterone that I have, and that is what is causing my symptoms.

She prescribed me some water pills to help with some of the issues, and said the only other thing that would help it would be birth control pills.. Obviously those are out! I have no idea HOW the water pills are supposed to help, I didnt think to ask her. I am taking these for 2 months, then I go back.

She said to wait 3 cycles before starting to try again. I havent even had a period yet, so who knows when that will be. She said maybe 4 weeks after the mc. She also sadi that she could put me on progesterone to get my cycle going, but since I have never really had issues with it there isnt really a need.

She also said that if I wasnt pregnant within 3 months of trying, then she will go ahead and put me on Clomid. Then when I DO get pregnant, she will put me on progesterone.

Can I just say that this appt. blew ssa. I got to sit in a lobby full of big ole fat pregnant mamma's, and think about how that night NEVER be me. Well, again. Then I got to hear all about how she doesnt really know WHATS up... Maybe Im just broken. She obviously DIDNT say that! but its all I was thinking.

I felt so stupid, I totally cried all the way home. Dh is insistent that he wants to at least try for another baby. What if I just cant? He says he knows that we might not have another one, and he wont be upset, but that is horse poo. When I suggested we try for another baby last year, he had thrown out the BC in about 3 seconds.

Gag.. Okay, Im done. stupid girly feelings.

Megan, I'm glad the DR says things are normal. Give it time sweetie. They are figuring it out along with you. And as for having another baby your emotions will change daily. its all too new right now ya know. you'll be fine.

I've seen a lot of people also come back changed for the better. I know that sounds weird but I've seen it happen. He'll be fine.

Ok freaky people stories are scaring me. I'm gonna hide in the corner til its safe!

My head is A LOT better!

 

[funnygarcia]

I always considered encounters with odd people that they had some kind of mental disorder or they were just really crafty and knew how to creep ay out.. now I wonder if some of these "off" people have asperger's (undiagnosed) and they just don't know to deal with social situations. Something to think about.

 

[Alex2kMommy]

I'm getting a headache... No really, I was just going to ask what to have. I know, you're probably thinking some sort of pill, I was thinking chocolate. Do you think it will help???

 

[staley7580]

Alex... SCARY!

Hi Shawna. Im glad your headache is gone.

 

[staley7580]

[MotoXPrincess99]

Mmm, chocolate sounds good!

Thanks. It was interesting to see how his feelings had changed from a few weeks ago. I think he's "processing" everything. He was VERY chatty this weekend.. We're not a talkative family, we just went wow-- uh huh.. ok.. nod nod nod



It was hard to keep up.

 

[AZMickeyfans]

chocolate always helps doesnt it?

 

[staley7580]

Sooo... does anyone know what water pills actually do? Besides make me pee alot?

 

[funnygarcia]

Oh mylanta Alex!!! That is creepy!! My cousin said he has only spoken a few words to her but it was during class (she said for about 2 minutes) and it was only on a topic that was discussed during class. It wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Then all of a sudden he started following her around campus and she said he would just pop out of nowhere. He got hold of her cell phone # and started text messaging her. Then he found her on myspace of facebook and started messaging her there. I think he found out from one of her friends that she went to an all girls school in high school. He asked her to send her pics of herself wearing a uniform and she blew him off. He has also said some other inappropriate things to her. She told me that before she left for spring break she told him not to contact her anymore and to leave her alone. I told her if he doesn't leave her alone then to report it to the dean. I know that they do not take harassment likely, especially on campus.

She said there was another guy in her class who commented on some strike that was going on. He said it was weird and she said: "Yeah." She only said one word to him and he took it as a sign that she was interested in him. He started following her around and saying inappropriate comments towards her that made her feel really uncomfortable. She asked him to leave her alone, made up a story about having a boyfriend and I'm hoping he will back off.

Hi Sarah! How was your weekend?

Always.

Something to think about.

I was thinking about that a lot recently, too. You know how there were always kids at school who were just unpopular, or kids at the park that other kids who didn't know them just didn't want to play with?

When my nephew was 3 or 4yo I took him to a local park, and there was another little boy his age. DN wanted to play with the boy, but the boy wanted nothing to do with him, kept wandering away. DN asked me why that little boy wouldn't play with him, and I told him, "Well, you keep telling him to follow you and do what YOU want to do. Why don't you do what HE wants to do?" He looked stumped, and said, "But I don't want to do what HE'S doing, I want him to come here."

At the time I chalked it up to him being terribly spoiled and having no rules and no manners, but he was later diagnosed with ADHD (he was not a hyperactive kid by any means, so that was a surprise) and then eventually with Aspergers.

Maybe all those kids years ago (that I grew up with) had Aspergers or some other "hidden" disability.

Do you have a lot of swelling? puffy hands, feet, ankles?

It will force the extra fluid from your tissues to your kidney.. and yes, it will make you pee a lot!

They also prescribe it if you have high blood pressure.

Some types deplete your potassium, make sure to eat some bananas and potatoes.
