Mood:  irritated

Morning.

 

I hope everyone’s day gets off to a good start.

 

There isn’t much going on here. Flyboy landed safely last night and had a good flight.

 

I’m sorry this is so choppy, but I am in a bit of a bad mood, and really don’t want to get into it. Hopefully this weekend off from driving will help.

 

Take care, have a great weekend.

The Fan Makes Noise When It's On
Mood:  accident prone
Now Playing: I Discovered That This Month I'm Addicted To Milky Way Bars... hmm

Morning,

 

Not much going on here, which is more than fine with me. Today I have a feeling will be a BEAUTIFUL day, definitely a day to head to the beach, but apparently we don’t live close enough.

 

Flyboy is doing his “thing” today, hope he packed himself enough food in his lunch =S I was so out of it this morning, I am surprised that I actually got him to work alright. Yesterday we worked out at the gym near the squadron again. I really like this one, it has a very comfortable atmosphere and it smells like dad’s shop in Cali. Hehe. (Very happy smell) Anywho, we were going to run for 3 miles, but Flyboy was, lets face it, a dummy, and didn’t bring the proper clothes for running, so he had us do some toning instead. I didn’t find this out until AFTER we were heading home. If I he would have told me earlier, I would never have had us jump on the treadmills. He is lucky he didn’t make this mistake on Squadron P.T. day. Haha. I heart my dummy. =) For some reason though we were there for over 2 hours, it was pretty fun really. I think it is because I shot some hoops while he was still stretching. (I stretched while he was changing out of is uniform… a good 20 minute stretch) Tomorrow I will make sure he packs everything so we can run again.

 

We had spaghetti for supper, with salad of course. My last shopping trip I decided to buy a jar of Ragu, just because I am getting tired of making spaghetti sauce from scratch, especially when I am starving. I got the veggie mix one, It was pretty good, but waaaaaaaay too sweet. I like my sauce with that rich garlic smell accompanied by a nice spicy kick. Not what I got though. Flyboy packed what I didn’t finish last night for his lunch today, I just home the ovens are working on the plane.

 

I really need to wake up… I get plenty of sleep but every morning with the exception of one a week, Flyboy wakes me up in the middle of a sleep cycle, so I am more groggy than I should be.

 

Anywho, I think I may get the laundry going, that always seems to make me wake up. Hope everyone is doing well, Take care!

Set The Oven To 350 Degrees....
Mood:  smelly
Now Playing: Broccoli Is A Good Source Of Goody Goodness

Good morning,

 

 

I hope you all are having a decent morning so far. =)

 

I got a call back from the Med Group yesterday and apparently I have a perfectly normal knee. Go figure… Anywho they wanted to know if I wanted to do therapy for it and I think I will pass. The pain is very intermittent; it was just that the last time it was horrible. That moveable piece didn’t show up on the x-ray and they have no idea what it could be.

 

My dentist appointment went quite well. I REALLY like these people, they know what they are doing and are very nice, not creepy nice either. I am really excited with that, well as much as I can be. Due to unforeseen factors, they weren’t able to do the cleaning, so they rescheduled me for May 7th. Yay? The Dentist looked at my wisdom teeth and said that he could pull the top two no problem, but the bottom two would definitely need an Oral Surgeon. Yay? So I have to call the Surgeon up later this morning and schedule a consultation appointment, and then go from there. They aren’t too worried about my wisdom teeth, mainly just the cleaning. Though he said that if my wisdom teeth were my number one priority to go ahead and get that taken care of first. I am really glad I didn’t feel pressured to do anything; you know how they like to guilt trip you and everything. I am more at ease, well as much as I can be.  Right now I am crunching numbers to work it into our budget.

 

Other than that, our trip to Cali is so far still on for the set dates. I haven’t heard anything out of Soldier, but that reminds me. You will NEVER believe the odds of this…

 

Flyboy’s flight just got a new guy and he is married to a gal with my first name. We knew this for a while, no big sweat, right? Wrong. Flyboy brought up our Cali trip, and then how he couldn’t wait to have a nice piece of Tri-Tip, my hometown style. The guy totally agrees thus sparking a very interesting conversation… Ready? Well she and I both went to the same high school, when I was a freshman she was a senior. Yeah, and we both have the same first name, and lived a few blocks from each other. That is pretty ironic, but the fact that we both have the same first name, each married an Airman, that both wound up at this base, in the same squadron, in the same flight, and yeah, the EXACT same job class. (There are two different job classes in Flyboy’s flight, the computer nerds and the jocks who pedal the exercise bikes that turn the rotor domes, Haha. ((Not really but basically yeah))) He, like Flyboy is the nerd. At first, I didn’t believe them, so I looked her up in the year book and yeah sure enough. I think I had a class with her, like a math class or something. I specifically remember that name because the teacher had to use our last names to separate us. But yeah, what are the odds on that?!? Really kind of freaky... Luckily his name isn’t Flyboy( Haha), that would be a little over the top, and I think Flyboy has a much higher I.Q. *cough* 145 *cough* Though, they have kids, and we don’t yet, but still, I mean, come on… They are going out to Cali after we get back, should be interesting. Haha.

 

I think that is it for now. I am cooking the steak to make steak snacks and then I might put some split pea in the crock pot, I don’t quite know. We had tacos last night and I discovered the source of the smell. The hamburger!!!!!! It really tweaks me in the wrong way, because that meat hadn’t even been in my fridge for 7 days!!!!! I got jipped by the commissary again, grr. Oh well. As long as it doesn’t smell anymore, right?

 

Well, I better get to my daily chores. I have been informed that we are out of spoons… *rolls eyes* Take care everyone!

Where Did Flybpy's AF P.T. Gear Go?
Mood:  hungry
Now Playing: Man I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STARVING!!!!

Good morning.

 

Well, I got most of what I wanted done yesterday, done. I still have more cleaning to do of course. =/

 

I haven’t found the source of the smell yet, but I am marinating the chicken wings and we had chicken and broccoli last night for dinner. I am going to cook the hamburger in a few and make some Noodle/veggie dishes. I steamed and then froze most of the veggies I plan on using yesterday, so today is just cooking noodles and vacuum sealing them. I think I may turn the rest of the chicken into Chicken Snacks and possible defrost the steak in the freezer so I can make steak snacks tomorrow.

 

I slept pretty well, I wish I would have slept a bit better, but hey, I will take what I can get.

 

I called up the Med Group yesterday, and the receptionist said I could leave a message for my Doc or schedule and appointment. I decided to leave a message because if it is serious enough she will have me schedule an appointment when she calls. I don’t want to waste a slot if someone needs it more than me, you know? After calling them, I called up the Dentist, twice. The first time I called up I got an appointment but Flyboy messaged me saying that he was flying that day so, it wasn’t such a good idea with crew rest an all, little too risky. So I called back and changed and the soonest they could get me in was today. (Well yesterday it was tomorrow, but yeah). I’m a little nervous, but I think I will be okay. Flyboy can’t make it to this appointment like we both wanted, because of Squadron P.T. I meet my doom at 1540 today… eek. They are going to do a cleaning (eek) and do some x-rays and what not, should be a blast. The receptionist said I can talk to the dentist regarding my wisdom teeth and they will go from there. I have no idea what I am getting myself into. I really wish Flyboy could be there. Maybe one of the guys can drop him off at the office after P.T. since P.T. will only last until 1600-ish. I will have to inquire about that, I would be more at ease if he is there.

 

The run… well it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I would have been able to run a lot longer (I ran 1 mile then walked ¾ then ran the rest) if it wasn’t for this crazy old lady walking on the treadmill next to me. I guess she was afraid of sweating that “old” smell so she took a bubble bath in cheap cologne. Until she left my oxygen to perfume ration was 1 to 99. Bah. I am still pretty beat today, but I am doing alright. Tomorrow it’s three miles again, today is just toning, yay me!

Anywho, I need to get started on the noodles. Hope you are all having a great day so far!! Take care!!

Oh Man! It's Waaaay Past My Bedtime!
Mood:  don't ask
Now Playing: Noisy And Smelly Fridge

Good morning everyone.

 

I would first off like to apologize for last week. The first two days got off to a busy start and then karma decided to come after me. For some reason, and my internet provider has no clue, but I have had no internet or very intermittent internet since Tuesday evening. Very frustrating, especially with the storms we had rolling through, luckily we didn’t get much.

 

Last week, Monday, well I guess we could start even before that, how about Thursday? Thursday we had the horrible fire outbreaks that wiped out a BUNCH of homes, buildings, and most of a town. Flyboy and I were really lucky that the winds didn’t decide to shift directions; otherwise we would have been toast. After a looong night, of me staying awake, waiting for the possibility of having to wake Flyboy up so we could evacuate, Friday finally rolled along. The winds had died down a bunch, thank goodness, and because of that, the firefighters were able to put out most of the blaze. I took Flyboy to work and two hours later he had me come get him because Base decided to send everyone home to be with their families. No one in our flight or squadron were affected, sure came close though. However like 6 guys in the squadron below ours (multi level building) lost their homes, but there were no injuries. They are doing alright so far. For most of the weekend, including the rest of Friday, I kept us in the house. Poor Flyboy, hates being cooped up, but I have an issue or two regarding breathing lots of ash and smoke, not to mention its allergy season, he doesn’t need to go DNIF again. =/

 

Monday I was really distracted with budgeting, cleaning and laundry, not to mention coming up with a grocery list. Tuesday was shopping day and I am proud to say I didn’t go over the $150 I allow each payday. (I have a hard time with that) After shopping I spent the rest of the day cooking and vacuum sealing as well as detailing the house for our “inspection”. The complex says they are “spraying” for bugs but really they are just seeing if you keep your house clean by their standards. I know, because I got sent a note that I was in violation because I had dirty dishes in my sink that were just sitting there and not soaking in water. Yeah, I know. I was a little perturbed at that, since it was breakfast dishes and I was out grocery shopping that morning and they weren’t in there that long. So Wednesday comes along and I still have no internet (It stopped working around 1500 when I went to leave a post on my blog), of course I am frustrated because I pay a decent penny for this “hi speed” service and I have nothing, nothing. I would LOVE to switch providers but AT&T is just as bad as these people, and unless I am getting money from the government, I have to chose between these two companies who like to charge an arm and a leg for one small service, that doesn’t even work half the time! They keep trying to get me to purchase cable, but what is the point? I mean the signal will still go out when it is super windy or the E-3 is flying by, so why pay for channels that we one don’t watch anyway and two wont receive half the time because some genius decided to switch us from analog to digital. Do you know how comforting it is to be watching the radar map of the tornadic storms headed to your town, on the news and at the first booming of thunder you lose all your news stations. Sure you could log on to noaa.gov and check the weather there, but your internet provider likes to steal your money and not render you the services you paid for. So you are stuck with the radio, which the program that is on rarely cuts out to give you weather reports. I never had this issue when we were still on analog. I feel bad for the poor souls who live out in the country and now have no television reception, even if they bought the converter box or cable because the signal is much weaker. Sorry, just venting… I am sure you catch my drift.

 

Thursday, no internet, Friday Flyboy flew, still no internet and then that brings us to Saturday. Saturday we ran a few errands, but we just mainly put more details into Cali trip, that will be a very busy trip. We finally got internet back around 2100 Saturday evening, but it was worse than dial up. I wouldn’t have a problem if I was paying for that, but I’m not. I don’t think 50 bucks a month (they just recently raised their prices) for dial up is worth it, you know?

 

Sunday was well, a Sunday and now it is Blues Monday again. Today I have packages I need to ship off to Soldier, some more cooking to do, search for the rancid smelling object in the fridge or freezer. (I have no clue what it is, I mean everything in the freezer is sealed in airless baggies and everything in the fridge is mainly fruits and veggies and fresh meat. I have no clue what it is, but it smells like really bad meat, it’s over powering barbeque sauce. ((I had made pulled pork and turned it into Sloppy Joe’s for Flyboy, that is 2 days old so the smell is definitely not that))) I also need to wash the weekend dishes, call up maintenance to fix my dishwasher, call up the Med Group to see if my x-rays have been examined, it’s working on 3 weeks now, and then I need to call up the dentist and inquire about setting up an appointment to get my WONDERFUL teeth looked at. It took awhile, but this place has a lot of good reviews and they do everything that I need to have done at a reasonable price, so if our insurance decides not to do its job, then we won’t have heart attacks over the bill. I have a lot of mixed feelings about this and I think I am getting a bit too worked up, but then again I’m used to getting lectured about my teeth. The dentists always have a fit because I don’t floss, well I can’t. My teeth are so crammed in there, all overlapping and what not that even they can’t floss them. That irritates me; it is another one of those “do as I say…” moments. I am hoping it won’t be like this. Flyboy and I have been talking and he said we can get my teeth worked on to make them all straight and what not. I know most of you are thinking “wow, how vain is she?” Well you know what; I am sick and tired of being teased about my teeth, my smile, what have you. I really have low self-esteem because of it. I mean it really hits deep when even the grown-ups are making comments about your teeth, too you. My Grandma-Grandma was so sweet. I was really upset about them when I was younger and she told me that if I pressed down on my teeth (the ones on either side of the two big ones, yeah they really stick up and out) for 20 minutes once a day for long time that eventually I would be able to move them back to where they were supposed to be. I would do that every night after mom would send us to bed, and I did it for a long time. Obviously I was unsuccessful, but I mean even now and then I catch myself doing it. Hope, I guess is what you call it because logically with as many teeth as I have crammed in my little mouth, it doesn’t work that way. I had like 4 teeth pulled when I was little and it is still crammed in there. Anyway, I hid my insecurity pretty well, I think, but the wisdom teeth coming in has really resurfaced it especially since it is making it even more crammed in there to the point where I have molars moving in directions that I am sure will make it very difficult to chew. Haha. (I laugh, but I am really nervous about it)

 

I call up the dentist in the later morning (its 300 now, another sleepless night due to anxiety and a loudly snoring husband) and see if I can schedule an appointment. I want to see how the teeth are coming in and how soon I can get an appointment to have them removed or however they would like to deal with them. If I can’t get an appointment until the Cali trip then we will wait until after I get back. If I can get one sooner then we will do it. Though the horrible kicker is, I won’t be able to have solids for a couple weeks. Flyboy said he actually had to have stitches when he got his removed and I know with my tiny mouth it will be the same. 0.o So all the foods I had planned to re-taste for the first time in 4 years will have to be put off for me until our next venture out to Cali, and I have no idea when that will be. I mean I would be okay if I could nibble on a piece of Ricky’s Pizza and a piece of Tri-tip (The rodeo will be in town when we come out, it will be EVERYWHERE!) but I have been told it hurts to even swallow water. This of course will make for a very interesting drive out there. Do I hear Jell-O in the cooler? = ( As you can see, I am a tad on the stressed side. It doesn’t help that the last tooth that is breaking through the gums is hurting pretty bad, and I don’t know if it is just because it is breaking gum or if it is trying to take out a molar on it’s way to the surface… I would hate to be a teething infant again! (Can I get a “here, here...” to that? Though I was really cute when I was little… hmm…)

 

So, that is the gist (I didn’t know that is how you spell that) of what is going through my head at the moment, with of course the occasional “ha, ha” poke from the PCOS representative in my head, but yeah.  Flyboy is doing alright. We found out due to some ridiculous technicalities he doesn’t make the cut-off to test for Staff, so he will have to wait until next year. It is a pretty big bummer because a lot of the guys in the Flight are coming up for their re-enlistment and aren’t re-enlisting, so we are losing a lot of good leadership, not to mention friends. I can’t believe how much the flight is getting gutted of people, wither due to them leaving, getting PCS’d or from some random illness that gets discovered at yearly flight physical. It is pretty depressing, so morale throughout the flight has gone waay down, and it was down already. Time to bring in wings I guess? =S

 

I hear the Tea Party was a success! However I am offended at the Homeland Security release stating that I am a terrorist for believing in the constitution and having an opinion on abortion. oh adn don't get me started on the whole attack on war vets being possible terrorists! Their defense to this memo was, "Oklahoma City Bombing"... I also would like to research how much it would cost me to sue the pants off of CNN-NBC for their disgusting and I mean DISGUSTING and OUT OF LINE report about the Tea Party and those their at the rally. They need to be held responsible, that was inappropriate and honestly I think they should be pulled from the air for at least a month because of it. (If you have no clue what I am talking about you can click, here...) If what was said, was said on FOX, or heck, the Disney channel, no more FOX and no more Mickey Mouse. I don’t like discussing politics because my blood boils too much and I don’t like being in a furious mood and plus with Flyboy’s career… well, I don’t know what I can say or do. I don’t want to jeopardize his career, be interpreted wrong or frankly have people after us. That may sound a little outrageous, but do you know what is going on in Mexico? I'm sure you have heard about the uprise in kidnappings because of the drug war, I mean, it’s not even safe in Cancun anymore. Oh, it also doesn’t help that I am a terrorist now apparently. I am pretty foolish to use that term as loosely as “they” do, because “they” do read and look out for stuff like that, but I am just furious about this!

 

Anywho, now that I am wound up, I think it’s time to lay down for a bit. I mean holy cow it’s almost 400!!! I need to get some sleep, especially with this busy day ahead of me, not to mention Flyboy is taking me on a 3 mile run this afternoon… eek!

 

I will let you all go for now, take care and don’t be as stressed as me! Love ya!

One Day At A Time
Mood:  on fire
Now Playing: I Need A Weather Machine Like In That Disney Movie....

Good morning,

 

Take a wild guess at the temperature right now…. Yup, below 40 with a lovely wind chill of 10 degrees! I am glad the winds died down, they were NASTY yesterday and as a result, we have been on fire. If the winds would have shifted so the fires would blow westward, we would have been toast, no pun intended. Last night we were basically surrounded by fires, I would say 5 mile or so radius. (Don’t worry Flyboy and I had plans if we were told to evacuate, luckily it didn’t come down to that)

 

The winds were so bad yesterday I thought our bedroom window was going to blow out. *shudders* So needless to say I was awake last night waiting on updates of fire locations, I am really tired again, this morning with a decent sized crick in the neck. Yay me. =)

 

I don’t know if any of our friends were affected, Flyboy won’t find that out until today, at a really long brief, I’m sure. (You know the fires are bad when you barely get home from work and you’re getting an accountability recall =P) I am worried about CornFed, I think he purchased a house in that area a month or so ago. I am not quite sure yet. I know flyboy will keep me posted.

 

I don’t think there is any news over here other than, we are okay, though we aren’t out of danger as of yet. The winds are suppose to get as nasty as they were last night so… yeeeah.

 

I am going to start on chores early this morning, while I am still in the mood. Hope you all are doing well. Take care!

"No, No More Dishes, Please... I'll Behave!!!! I Swear It!"
Mood:  a-ok
Now Playing: Rinse Washer, Rinse!!!

Morning,

 

Sorry for not posting yesterday, I was just out of it. I fell asleep then had to wake up to check on the fruit (it was in the dehydrator) and after I put it away, I had the hardest time falling back asleep. Everything from nightmares to not being able to get comfortable, it was awful. I am better rested this morning, but it was too hot so the sleep wasn’t completely restful. Oh well…

 

Yesterday was the Feed the Children event. It was pretty fun. There were only 8 of us who showed and we still managed to push out 800 boxes in 4 hours! When we went last time there was 17 of us on a line and we were doing 800 every two hours. It is crazy. I was first on the line this time, Flyboy was in the middle. My job was to place the box on the track and put 6 rolls of toilet paper in there. Of course they way these boxes of toilet paper were packed was annoying within itself. There were 3 packs of 18 rolls of paper and then on top of them was an odd amount of unwrapped toilet paper. I finally got a decent enough rhythm down when one of the guys had nothing to do so he came over and opened and unwrapped the toilet paper for me, so all I had to do was out six rolls in the new box. It sounds pretty bad but really, having someone open the stuff for you so all you have to do is put the stuff in the new box is SOOO helpful, otherwise you are doing it all by yourself and they like to move the boxes really fast down the line. Then things get missed and it slows the process. We did really well, I think.

 

I have to drop off Flyboy’s squadron P.T. gear. It is my fault this time. I washed them and then forgot to put them in the dryer, so, I shall see him at lunch, or sooner, it depends.

 

Not much is going on here. It is hot and muggy this morning, unlike yesterday morning when it was 26 degrees and nippy.

 

No word from Soldier or my Doctor yet. I figure I won’t hear from my Doctor for another week or so. (There are a lot of people who go there) Flyboy did talk to some of his leadership and they were saying that I most likely have calcium deposits, form their past experiences. They said that if it is big enough, they will numb up my knee, make a small incision and remove the deposit… while I am awake…  riiiiiight. I mean they do but yeah, I don’t want to have a numbed up knee again. That was so nauseating, and then they are actually cutting me open while I can take in what they are doing… eeek! It is one thing if they have to stitch me up while I am awake, but they are performing the injury themselves…. Anywho, I will let you know what she finds out when she calls.

 

Other than that, I don’t think there is much of anything else. I have dishes to do again, since I didn’t do them yesterday because I was so out of it. Then of course Flyboy’s P.T. gear. *yawn* It is breakfast time, I am really, REALLY hungry. Talk to you later, Take care!!!!

Tomato Twist
Mood:  sad
Now Playing: The Bananas Are Oxidizing

Good morning!

 

Guess what? It froze over last night… again! This is getting really old I tell ya. =/

 

Not much going on here, just tired. I found the right pillow set up for my neck but I was really restless last night. So, needless to say I am exhausted even though I was asleep by 2200. Flyboy was the same, restless, poor thing, and he is scheduler today. Though, I think he may get off early since Squadron P.T. is at like 1500 and they plan on shutting the office down. I don’t know though.

 

Tomorrow Radar has a bunch of people getting together at 1200 to help with Feed the Children, it lasts until around 1600. He was short on people and was glad he could count on us. =)

 

I hope I don’t seem too rude with this post. I am really upset and that upsets me, so it is a vicious cycle. Flyboy likes to watch House on Monday’s and I will watch it with him even though I am not a very big fan of it. Well anyway they have this character that reminds us both of Radar and out of no where last night they killed his character! Apparently the character was suicidal and so he shot himself. Then of course they had a husband and wife patient and the husband was told he was dying of heart problems, which his previous doctors had misdiagnosed him, and he really just had mold poisoning that was fixable. On the other hand, the wife, they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with her until one minute too late, so he had to live instead of her. The whole show was screwed up. I mean besides the fact that Flyboy likes to watch the show, I only tolerate it because “Radar” is an awesome character, very comedic and really smart, which is like the real Radar, our Radar. So we were really restless last night because of that, it sounds silly; to be THIS upset over a character, but it is because we unknowingly replaced the character with our Radar. (from a psychological view, it was if our Radar killed himself. It really shook us up.)It also doesn’t help that our Radar has considered being a doctor. But yeah, it was really screwed up… out of now where. So we are a bit down over here. I think tomorrow will be better since we will be hanging out with our Radar at the volunteer event tomorrow, so I am really looking forward to that.

 

No word out of Soldier, to me anyways. He talked to Mississippi Mom last night, which was pretty cool, but there was nothing new from him over there. They are still getting sandstorms, and they are still as annoying as ever.

 

I made meatloaf last night and I need to freeze it now in individual slices so Flyboy can have meatloaf whenever he wants to. (I am also not a big fan of meatloaf; it really depends on my mood if I am up for eating it)

 

I think I am going to go for now. I need to cook something to eat. I had no appetite last night and any food then would probably have made me vomit. Plus I think it is time for a happy episode of Little House on the Prairie before I start doing the dishes, and the laundry, blah. I hope you are all doing well, or doing better! I wish you sane weather! Take care!!!!

GRRRRR
Mood:  don't ask
Now Playing: "Think Happy Thoughts.... "

Morning,

If its not one thing it’s another… We finally found a comfortable temperature for the house and then I decided to wash our pillows and now I can’t figure out which ones are mine. It sounds petty but really its not. We both have pillows that suit our neck needs, and so for the past 4 days I have been getting little to no sleep because of it. I think I figured out a pillow combination, but last night wasn’t a sleeping success due to a horrible upset tummy.

 

I am writing a short one right now because apparently Flyboy needs me to wait outside a brief for him, so I can take him to another brief. (I am still having stomach issues, but whatever I guess) Anywho, I have no idea how long this will be so I thought I would write now. Plus I had the first car start fail of the morning and I am in between restarts, it froze over last night….

Now For The Waiting Game
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: The Sounds Of An Angry Heater O.o

Morning,

 

This will be a super short note, for now of course. I am just heating up the water for the split pea soup (crock pot) and then I will be getting ready for the rest of the day. (I have to compile my notes) My appointment is at 1300, but I have to be there at 1230, and I want to be there at 1225 so I can fill out another DD Form 2569. (Apparently my insurance car expired last month, we still have insurance though. They just started doing this card thing last year, if I am correct; well at least with this base anyway)

 

Oh, I think I figured out why my Split Pea Soup has been super, SUPER thick, I used more peas than the recipe called for, haha. I think I need to read a little more thoroughly.

 

Well I will go for now and update this after my appointment. Wish me luck! Take care!

Hello again!

 

Well I am back from my appointment.

 

First off she is keeping me on the Glucophage and the Birth Control Pills. She said that the “amount” lost during each cycle while on the pill is normal and the same with the odd cramping. Also she voiced some concern, if Flyboy and I were to get pregnant, not to have it naturally because of how narrow the canal is. She had trouble “navigating” (Flyboy’s choice of word there) due to a lack of space. So that is a big relief, in an odd sort of way. So far that part of the appointment went alright. It was fast too!!!!! The one I had last year, with the OBGYN clinic across the hall, took at least 10 minutes, (I’m not including the breast exam, which also was painful!) and it was HORRIBLE!!! I think I had told you about that. But yeah, this time, I swear it took maybe under 2 minutes max plus it didn’t hurt like last time, it was just very, very uncomfortable. I am extremely relieved about that. I really wasn’t looking forward to another one like the first one. I am glad they can be better…

 

I told her about my knee and she seemed concerned. She thinks it could be a calcium deposit or something along those lines. When a tendon heals it excretes some kind of compound or something. (I don’t really remember what she said it could be exactly, but yeah) After the exam and everything she sent me to radiology and had them take some x-rays. I won’t know the results of those until after my doctor sees them, but the tech had her head tilted sideways and a “interesting” type squint on her face when she was looking at them, so I don’t know.

 

Anyway, I am just so glad to be relieved. All I have left is my wisdom teeth, I am just having trouble picking a dentist, (long goofy process) Oh, and of course the results of the x-ray’s, I have those to get too. But I am just not as stressed as I was. Yay me!

 

Well, I think I am off to shower now, I still feel kind of, ew, but yeah. I told you I would write back! =D Take care and have a GREAT WEEKEND!!
