health~ma for Will's niece! And baby.
Erin, sorry to hear the news, but happy to hear it's caused the stress to leave ya. As for the condom thing. Yeah. I just stopped buying. Sad.
ION- I have internet back!! Woot. And cable!! The old cable box had video and audio hum to it, so he gave me a new box. One with HDMI outputs, and faster processor. Woot! And yes, I can see the difference on the TV.
Alas, can't watch TV now. Gotta head to old place and deep clean it, and get the rest of my crap out of it (which is mostly cleaning supplies, packing supplies, and a lamp or two). But, I am recording the Olympics, so I can watch later.
Sending out the ~ma for Will's niece and family. How scary.
Much health~ma for Will's niece and her baby!
erin_o, sounds like this was the right thing for you, hard as the decision was. I'm glad you're less stressed!
Yes, much ma to Will's niece.
Have you guys seen the Honest Toddler blog/FB/twitter? (I'm pretty sure Glam has.). The posts on sleep are so dead on.
Just got an update from Will:
His niece has preeclampsia. She's okay now but she's got a c section scheduled for tomorrow or Tuesday. Her blood pressure was 200/? (Will didn't remember) when she was admitted Friday night but now it's back to normal. She's 7 months pregnant and so the doctors think everything will be okay after she delivers.
Lots of ~ma for Will's niece and everyone!
Will check out the pics of Rose on fb.
erin, it is absolutely stunning how much pain stress can cause. OTOH, it's kind of a nice validation that you made the right decision. I think about how the day after I got laid off, the acid reflux that made me lose 10 lbs in a month without trying literally disappeared.
So I mainlined Nikita last night - 10 episodes in a row. Stayed up until 2 am, and then my knee was locking up so I stretched a bunch and ended up taking 1.5 flexeril pills. Blergh. Knee feels a little better. I think I need new work boots.
Going to see Beasts of the Southern Wild again in a bit.
I just finished cleaning up a toilet that overflowed due to an innocent child's mistake. then I picked up Sammy, he felt hot, and yes, he has a fever of 100.1. All this really isnt that bad but our house is way hot because I've been cooking and we don't "need" AC in Colorado. (I am totally getting central air when things calm down a bit. That probably means October.)
But, I made Mexican rice, salsa, corn on the cob, chocolate chip cookies, and juiced a watermelon.
THat sounds delicious, Stephanie!
I am roasting a ton of veggies, but it's taking approximately forever. I keep adding another 20 minutes and they keep not being done.
Somehow smonster is having dinner at a restaurant recommended by Nora with my friend whose girlfriend just moved to New Orleans recently and found smonster "on the Internet." Apparently I do know everyone.
