Road Blocks!!

We woke up really late today actually at NOON...I guess its ok when you go to bed at 3 am right...My goal was to go to Denny's for the FREE GRAND SLAM but I didn't make it...Oscar & Norma went but said it was so so busy that they went to McDonalds instead. Once we woke up my intention was to go to the YMCA and work out but the road blocks were in the way...I thought really...the one time I wanna try to do a small workout I can't. The city is currently redoing our street and its alittle hard to try to manuever around the giant bulldozer. I thought I'd try to go later in the day...and I still might just go plop myself on my stationary bike but they decided to put down the tar or oil whatever that black stuff is so half or street is coned off. Thanks but no thanks I'd rather not get stuck in that crap. David had a lunch date today with an old friend so he was able to escape prior to all the mess. They are having a potluck at work today in a friends unit and David was invited to join so he picked up chips and salsa. I think its gone well...I did tell him if there wasn't any food he liked to just give me a call and I'd go get him something or take him something. My goal is to get out tomorrow bull dozer or no bull dozer. I know that I have to keep my workout pretty mild which doesn't really help me out when it comes time for Fit Camp because I am technically still lactating and cannot have any stimulation or harsh movements because it could trigger more production. HORRIBLE I TELL YOU!!

Some what on the same health note. I am looking into getting this book called Trying Again: A Guide to Pregnancy after Miscarriage, Stillbirth and Infant Loss so that I can figure out how I really need to prepare my body for our next pregnancy. Some probably think I am moving too fast but its not like Im wanting this to happen over night. Medically I was doing some searching and we could try again "healthy" in 3 months. But in my opinion that is too too soon. I know its possible as my niece is living proof of this but for me I don't think I could nor want too. I do want to at least wait the 6 months that Dr. Bass said was best for the body. I'd like to hopefully have my body in the best condition possible for the baby.

On the wedding plans note I designed our Save-the-Date stuff and will hopefully get those ready to mail later next week. I am trying to juggle planning, doing laundry, house cleaning and packing or getting stuff ready for my adventure to the FT. WORTH STOCK SHOW. My dad & I are meeting up with my oldest sister Lenore and her family in Ft. Worth on Thursday and staying until probably mid day on Friday. Ohhh what fun...lol...I have really no idea what to expect. All I was told is metal building = COLD!! I think I'll start looking into the weather because here in Abilene they are suppose to be nice days.

Inclement Weather Day!!

Monday the weather here in Abilene started getting bad and held thru till Tuesday. David stayed home Tuesday and that was nice. I had a doctors appt with my gastro doctor so I was happy that he was able to drive me. That doctor's visit went fairly well....same old same old. I am to start taking my medication to lower my triglycerides. We picked up some groceries and my new perscription then headed home before the weather got bad. David started working on his "Shredding Party" and worked on dinner. I made some hamburger helper, baked a cake and made Frito Pies for David and Shaft. We had the kids over since they were home all day from school and Norma & Louis were working late. They are certainly very much Nana & David kids. They helped David with his shredding and then we all had dinner before my sister came back to pick them up. Then the guys started playing Mario Galaxy for the rest of the evening. I went to bed midway thru their gaming because we had Dr. Bass' appointment at 9 am. Yeah I was not looking forward to that at all first off its cold and the weather warnings were all ending at 9 am.

Today we woke up at 8 am to get ready and to the doctors appointment. David started the Tahoe while we got ready. I felt really bad that I forgot something at the house and David had to turn around just to not need it at the doctors office. Our doctors appointment went well. Dr. Bass said that we have 6 months until we can start trying again. As David has already calculated we can offically start trying again in July. If we are fortunate I could be about 3 months pregnant when we get married in October. When we got home I made us breakfast; scrambled eggs, bacon and biscuits. While I was doing that David dropped off his heads at the machine shop to get cleaned and boared? He had to work again today but he's off on Friday and we are thinking of going out of town but we aren't 100% sure what we're going to do yet. My goals for today are to continue cleaning our laundry room, organize my agenda and planner and get some rest. I have accomplished the getting rest portion. I took a nap and ended up waking up 2.5 hours later.

Well I tried posting this blog yesterdat but the internet messed up ...

Over the weekend!!

We were suppose to go to Colorado City to visit with my oldest sister but Friday I got a tad sick. I woke up running a fever and stayed home and in bed most of the day so that I could rest and hopefully break the fever. By mid afternoon it had primarily gone away but then around 4ish it spiked up to 101 which is what the nurses had said was when I needed to call the office back. Well I called and they were closed ..Im thinking GREAT so then I paged the on call doctor to describe my symptoms to him. He told me to continue taking my antibotic and to take some tylenol every 4 to 6 hours. By the time David came home that night my fever was under control. I'd ordered us a pizza so we had a little Friday night TV watching with some pizza eating. I hadn't had pizza in over a month so it was nice to have some.

Saturday David had to work 5 hrs of OT at work so he was up at 6 am and gone till 12. He got home and then we went to watch Underworld : The Rise of the Lycans with Oscar. I really really liked it but David of course says he didn't like it..not much of a surprise because he hates love stories. I liked the action in the movie and it fit very well with the story lines of the other movies. After that we really didn't do anything had some lunch with Oscar then came home and just hung out at home. They played Star Wars Lego for Wii all night and I woke up around 2 am and David was asleep on the couch so he eventually came to bed.

Sunday I really meant to wake up in enough time for church but I forgot to take my phone off silent so I never heard the alarm. My sister called and said that Father Terry had spoken about Clara during his sermon that day in church in regards to LIFE week. I am certainly a proud mom that even now she is touching other peoples lives. I finally got out of the house on my own tomorrow yes I said it I went by myself...LOL...I drove to see Clara and let her know that her mommy & daddy were doing good and that I was off to get David's birthday present or at least part of it. I know it seems weird that I would go tell her that but I felt it was appropriate to go see her on my first trip out. I had fun shopping at Target. I bought some stuff for the wedding and some clothes.

I also bought David a small portion of his Birthday present. I got him the Super Mario Galaxy game. He'd played it at our friends house and really liked it so I thought he'd like it. He says it was a bit much but I really love celebrating his birthday. Well in general I love celebrating Birthdays!! His gets kinda hard though since its so close to Valentine's Day. He also ordered another portion of what he needs for his car and thats also part of his birthday present from me. As frustrated as I get from that car,,,,I love that he loves it. Well this is enough for this blog..Im sure I'll add another blog later today.

In some pain

Aside from the pain I've had from my milk coming in, which by the way has finally lessened enough that I don't need my pain meds all the time. Last night before we went to bed I started getting some cramping like I had in the hospital but I took some pain meds and they started going away or the pain did at least. This was the first time I'd had these pains since I left the hospital. I figured it was cause I did too much yesterday so today I've been taking it really easy. Zoe and I have just been hanging around the house pretty much doing nothing. My goal for tomorrow is to start on Thank You notes. David has been going to work for 2 days now and from what I can tell he really doesn't want to be back there. I completely understand how he feels because as much as he doesn't want to be there I don't want him to be there either. I'd rather him be at home. Its kinda weird being home alone especially at night. Hopefully I'll be able to get our home organized in the month I have before I go back to work..
