texasmama Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 I am back from AHG meeting but my brain is oatmeal. That's all I got. Plus, the cat keeps trying to walk on the keyboard and butt her head against my typing hand. It's a problem. Still no kittens. We have a busy morning at the orthodontist for two kids and then at co op. She will probably birth between 7:30 am and 12:30 pm tomorrow while we are gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMJ Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Well, I'm massively behind on reading this thread STILL. Yesterday I started throwing up and couldn't stop, so DH took me to an emergency room yesterday evening. I'm fighting some sort of infection, it turns out. Might have gotten it from something I ate the day before (as I recognized contents from supper the day before as well as everything I ate yesterday), though that's hard to say for certain. Today I'm keeping food down but I haven't eaten much and I'm still dehydrated, and my entire torso from the lower ribs on down feels like it has been beaten black and blue. Sitting up hurts, so I might not post again for another day or two. The kids and I spent the day in our jammies and had a "sick day". I watched bulk episodes of Death In Paradise while laying on the couch. I'll try to read more of the thread tomorrow. I need a laugh, once it stops hurting. :ack2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, if you set up Skype or something before you leave, I promise to watch over the cat. I'll give you a yell if she starts birthing. Of course, I'd have to yell pretty loud considering you're over 1,000 miles away. But it's the thought that counts. Isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasmama Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Oh, AMJ! That is terrible. I'd rather give birth than throw up (almost). My goal is to throw up no more than once per decade. I am pretty good at avoiding it, actually. The last time I did was after anesthesia in 2012. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lots of little ducklings Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Good morning. I have survived sleeping another night, and I am ready to meet the day. My dh walked through just now, pointed at me and said, "You are suspect in this town." I replied, "I am dangerous." He replied, "I am not IN danger. I AM the danger." (The last one is from Breaking Bad.) All we have left is communication through movie lines and snippets of songs. Fortunately, that provides a lot of fodder. Here, we have The Princess Bride. I'm sure someone watching the movie for the first time would have no idea that is so applicable to everyday life situations. Silly them. Seinfeld. Dh could easily converse solely in Seinfeldian for the rest of his life, if he wanted to. We often carry on entire conversations in nothing but quotes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Openhearted Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 We had terrible storms last night with very strong winds. A piece of gutter is torn off the porch, the 250 gallon water tank is in the driveway, and I am missing a bird feeder. The greenhouse held up though. Also the children and I managed to sleep through it all.:) It is good and bad though: good to sleep, but could have been bad if storms had been more severe. I think my oldest stayed up and he would've woke us if there had been a tornado warning. We were under a watch. Stream of Consciousness Rambling over... Also I responded to Hurt Heeler (I think that's it) on the intro board. I am not sure if I should have or not. I hope I didn't do anything wrong. I didn't want him (I think)to be waiting for a response or help here. When I am sure there better sites and forums for the help he is looking for. Although we do have a lot of diverse and knowledgeable people here. I think maybe it is about a horse. Possible Stream of Consciousness Ramble over.... And everyone is relieved.:D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
