I'm back. I gave the aspirin a chance to work and I'm feeling a bit better. Now I'm drinking tea and getting caught up.

Heartburn and nausea for two weeks now.  Do I need to say more?

Dry crackers will help with the nausea... So will ginger if you can handle it.

I swear I drank gallons of warm water and baking soda during that time in my life, to abate the heartburn... And I could NOT eat peanut butter without getting ill. It was about two years later before I could eat peanut butter without the nausea... Roll Eyes

Dry crackers make me gag LOL  Tried those.  I can drink Mountain Dew Code Red.  And peanut butter?  I've spent my entire life HATING peanut butter.  The smell of it would make me gag.  But today, I ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and it was sooooo good.

Dry crackers make me gag LOL  Tried those.  I can drink Mountain Dew Code Red.  And peanut butter?  I've spent my entire life HATING peanut butter.  The smell of it would make me gag.  But today, I ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and it was sooooo good.

My problem was I LOVE peanut butter, especially with apples or raw carrots (I know, I'm weird!). So eating it was only natural during that time in my life... Until I got SICK from eating it that is!!

I despise grapes with a passion so when I said that grapes sound GOOD, Hubby said that's when he knew for sure I was... I ate so many of them during that time, I'm surprised my son didn't grow up loving them. He is like me and despises grapes!! LOL

Never tried the Code Red, I can only drink a tiny bit of Mountain Dew before I gag, it's too darn SWEET for my liking. I couldn't eat the dry crackers either, those make me barf, especially if I took the horse pill sized vitamins. UGH.

My sister drank orange juice by the gallon, it was the only thing that held her nausea at bay during her first time... However, just looking at a potato laying on the counter would make her dash for the bathroom that time around... And she loves potatoes!! LOL

I was talking to my sister today... Apparently, all three of her kids are going to be at the family get together this weekend.

I wonder what kind of prank my oldest niece and I can come up with to slap on her brother...????  Smiley (Evil auntie is a BAD influence!!!  Smiley)

I am craving Chinese food right now.  And I generally hate Chinese food LOL  It's quite annoying.

I'm going to the doctor Friday morning.  I'm still not 100% sure; although considering J now talks to my belly every night, I think he is LOL  I have blood work to see where my hormone levels are at on Friday; we'll see how things are going then.

At this point, I'm cautiously optimistic.  I don't want to get my hopes up too much, because I know how my life can be at times.

I REALLY have to pay more attention to the cats when I'm on the computer....

Miss Noelle just dive bombed me and scared the dickens out of me!!  Smiley

I'll be under my computer desk if anyone needs me...  Smiley

Gee, thanks Firefox, for doing a complete meltdown on me which forced me to have to RESTART the entire computer....  Smiley

I'm back in FF now... I do have other browsers but I am a FF girl at heart....

Don't you just love it when that happens? NOT.  Luckily, I'm on a Macbook Pro, so I don't generally have total meltdown issues.  Though I do have a Windows partition on my hard drive, and THAT does have issues... like running a good 20 or 30 degrees hotter than the Mac partition.  So annoying...

Of course, I have been having some issues with internet sticking on me.  Quite aggravating...

Ah, the joys of computers.  Can't live without it though; kinda how I make my living.

It drives me "flipping" crazy... I have Windows Vista on my computer with FF 5 and most of the time it works great... Others... Roll Eyes

I love computers as a rule, except when they go WONKY on me!! I'm hoping to make my living by computer eventually too, but via writing like our Penth. My Writings update/grumblings thread is in the Writing life forum if anyone wants to see how things are going with THAT... Roll Eyes

I'd love to be able to get my computer tech diploma/certification but I can't afford it right now. As it is, I may wind up going back to work outside of the house until things get better here...

Afternoon! We're home and I'm heading downstairs to start assembling things. I couldn't get exactly what I wanted so so serious rearranging is in order...
I'll be back periodically to check on things.

The first set of shelves is nearly done. Once Skywise is on his way, I'll get them finished and start on the next set.

Both sets of shelves are assembled and in place. I couldn't get exactly what I wanted today so I had to improvise which ended up involving me lifting one rather heavy storage unit and putting it on top of another storage unit. The muscles in my back, butt and arms are going to be screaming bloody murder before too long but I have the units where I want them to be and thanks to a lot of books on the bottom and C-clamps on the top, the whole thing is fairly stable. I will have to get creative with various small steel braces but I can get to that later. Assembly of the bed can wait until tomorrow.... Or Saturday.... Smiley

My neck is killing me today.  Old, old injury flaring up.  It has not been fun.

And it has been brought to my attention that I've been moody this week.  Oops, my bad... I blame J.  It's all his fault LMAO  Damn hormones...
