Too much Rain

The race was a wash out yesterday. Delayed start, and then cause of being in the right place at the right time, he who shall not be named won the dang thing under a rain out. What's up with the states and the rain on race weekends?
What was up with Kyle Petty announcing? Why wasn't he driving that car?

Me: I still am not physically or emotionally back to where I was before surgery. I researched this thing, I talked to people that had it done, I even talked to three different doctors about it. In no way shape or form was I ready for the reparcussions of it. It planted me flat on my back for way longer than anyone expected especially me. WOW, can I say I was unprepared, even with all that research. I am back at work today but still not feeling "well". A weird thing happened too. I am in pre-op room. The anethesialogist, comes to talk to me. He is going over my medical file. He asks me if I am a generally healthy person. I say no, I suffer chronic pain. The man looks me in the eye and says well pain does not affect your physical health. This man is a doctor. OMG. I almost backed out right then, maybe I should have. Not one single person in all my research and investigation of this ablation told me I had to be on anti-biotics for a week. No one thought to mention it. Me the one that doesn't tolerate antibiotics has been on them since Tuesday. They make me so sick I had to have them changed on Thursday. Enough of my bitching though. I will survive there are no other options.

Hey there. Sorry to hear you're having a tough time after your surgery. I wasn't on antibiotics except before and during the surgery. They gave them to me through my IV.

I've been thinking of you and wanted to check in to see how you're feeling. I sure hope you're feeling better soon!

In answer to your question about Kyle: he stepped out of the car and into the announcer's booth to get a feel for TV. I believe he is preparing for the day when he quits racing. He will be announcing for all 6 TNT races. It's so refreshing to have him there, he tells it like it is. Never cared for his father, but he is a treat.
I sure hope you get better quickly, just hang in there.

April 19 is a rough day

20 years ago today I miscarried a baby. I can imagine myself with a 20 year old running around. Maybe even a grandma, that is a rough thought. For years when I could not conceive I wondered if I was being punished for miscarrying my first. I was young, got pregnant in college, and was sick all the time. I had morning sickness 24 hours a day every single day, I lost a lot of weight. I was alone and I was scared. I went to bed one night feeling very ill, I woke up two days later in the hospital. I had hemarraged and been uncousious, and almost died. I miscarried in my fifth month. When I missed college some friends tried to reach me and couldn't so called my ex and he had the landlord let him in. It saved my life. I have always felt so guilty that I was just that little bit relieved that it had happened. I was so young, and on my own, and did not want a child raised the way that I had been raised. Feelings just all over the place. It hit me like a ton of bricks again w

Well I made it and I survived it

I am finally 40. Entering the prime of my life. I think it is all how you look at things. So if I look positive it will be postitive. This is the decade that is going to be about me. I had an adult decade on education, I had an adult decade on family, now I want one on me. Thanks Jenni for calling last night, I miss you and you are welcome to come back to Alberta and visit any time. I got the cutest birday card from Poncho with her original photography on it of a koala, I love it. I feel spoiled and loved and it is nice to feel that way. I got a cake sent to me at work yesterday, a balloon arrangement with a teddy bear and chocolates and some basic grey paper. A bunch of girls from SJ went together and organized it all. I feel so honoured to be counted as one of their friends. I got to talk to geminigirl (Carrie) yesterday as well, she is one of the sweetest people I know. Thanks for calling.

Back to school

Image
DD first day of grade three is today. She is very excited to be going back, and hoping she gets her dream teacher. There was a fiasco last year at the start of school and DD started with her dream teacher and then they moved her twice more and she ended up with a split teacher room. This year she hopes she gets Mrs. K, for good. I hope the school has their act together this year. She didn't want me to drive her, she didn't want me to follow the school bus, she wanted to do it on her own just like last year. She was happy to have mom wait at the bus stop with her though.
