Howdy!!

Trying to think of what in all has happened since I last wrote! I had started a blog that I ended up not posting of course lol.

Friday I spent most of my day at the Social Online conference..It was pretty awesome and I can’t wait to watch the recordings of the sessions I didn’t get to see, and the ones I did !
I also continued the whole nauseous thing the entire day…couldn’t eat a darn thing! It sucked. I tried cheese it’s, sub from subway, healthy choice steamer, and turkey pepperoni. the cheese it’s went over best of all.. for some reason I had a big aversion to meat!

Saturday: David and I ate at the bar (lol seriously…like I say..best food in town!) and then we just hung around until he went to his concert. I did a few sessions of the social online conference and then..pretty much nothing!

Yesterday David went out and got me a nikon camera..I haven’t even got to mess with it a lot yet ..I am sure I will like it just fine. I also was happy that the giants won the superbowl

I also purchased my ticket for Reviewers Retreat 2012! I am really excited and even though it isn’t far from my house I think I will have a great time

well that’s all for now..catch ya later

I remember when I was a little girl and my parents put in new laminate floor at the house we lived in and it was a really pretty wood look, compared to the white looking pattern we had beforehand.

As far as flooring where david and I have lived, we have had some good and some bad. When we lived at the apartment across we had some really weird but neat looking bricky looking tile in our kitchen.

When we lived at the apartment down the road we had really nice tile in the bathroom that was kind of stone looking, I wish they would have liked to seen more of it…

At our current apartment we have some semi decent tile downstairs but upstairs is this weird color that I cannot even describe and it is really slick in texture. EW. Totally wish we could get it redone..

I have to say though I like tile better than carpet any day of the week!

Have you ever been STARVING and NAUSEOUS at the same time? Welcome to my world! My period is at least a week late and i’ve been having delusions that I am pregnant for about 2 weeks..3 pregnancy tests say NO but i’m not a believer….

Today I FINALLY went to the store with mom.. Walmart, Aldi, Bilo and Harris Teeter. I have a very stocked pantry:

(And deep freezer, mini pantry, refrigerator, and overhead freezer for that matter) I also started p365 yesterday and that’s my day #2 pic! (Day 1 isn’t up yet lol)

I am helping moderate 2 sessions of the Social ONline conference this weekend, one tomorrow at 1:30 p.m and Saturday at 6 p.m (EST) So I hope maybe I’ll see some of you there!

I spent yesterday cleaning a storm up in the afore mentioned pantry and a little in the closet under my stairs.

Well, I just wanted to drop a few lines! Catch ya latter!

*waves*

Hello There! Right now i’m trying to figure out why my double duty divas badge won’t show up over there on the left sidebar! (I didn’t code it, so it should work ? lol) That is one thing I need to get better at though: coding banners when the code isn’t supplied..I swear this is the truth i used to know how to do some html. Since WP came along, not so much!
I miss the old days sometimes, but I probably wouldn’t be blogging if it hadn’t gotten easier lol yes..i’m a slacker we know that much right?

David’s mom finally got around to calling about him being “sick” I was like honestly? sick? I think chest pain and other symptoms would classify more of a concern and it wasn’t “sick” ugh..those people! And she didn’t seem to concerned either. Then again, if I thought they would have gave a rats butt I would have called when I rushed him to the ER I suppose!

I am expecting email responses to a ton of things I have sent out lately, but of course none of them are coming in! I hate when i’m impatient. Sometimes though I wonder if it has been 3 or more days if I’m really impatient or if people are just that slow! either way.. lol

We got our State tax return this morning! First time EVER that the State came before federal..plus, generally we don’t get state until march or april! thank you e-file! Our federal return is delayed for some reason though, but hopefully should be here sometime next week. David Is supposed to pay me back some of the money that he owes me…

In general everything in my world is pretty slow and dull. The house is pretty well cleaned up for the most part …which is nice in a way but sucks in other ways because I am kind of bored.

Sure there are those random things I could do like work on putting books on my kindle and nook and songs on my ipod and such, but ..meh.. those are things that I just have to be in that kind of mood to get done!

Right now it’s time to put some clothes in the dryer..and …yeah that’s about it!

catch ya later gators

One thing that I have always liked were pretty undies! Other than purses, that has kind of always been one of my “things”! I remember when I got married my mom got me a few pretty nighties, and ever since then I have tried to come up with some new ones every now and then. Of course with me womens lingerie isn’t something that I can run out and buy everytime i’d like to, but at least it is something that I feel that I can buy for myself as a reward to make myself feel better!

I also currently need to clean out some of the older items that don’t fit! I swear my work is never done!

I haven’t ever had a pool other than a kiddie pool, even though that is something that I always wanted to have. My parents were always leery of having one because of all of the legalities that you can get into if someone were to come over to your house and get hurt or even worse in your pool. Another thing that they were worried about is people that were uninvited that just came over and had something to happen to them!

I know that if I ever personally had a place to live that I could have any sort of pool I would definantely be checking into pool fencing not only for the guests and uninvited but to help protect my children that I one day hope to have!.

So what have I been up to since i last wrote?

Well Wednesday evening david and I went to eat at the bar (yeah, Eat at the bar..lol they have the best home cooked stuff in the area!) and I ran into my second grade teacher which was AWESOME. After we left david kept saying he felt weird… which well..in itsself was weird.

He kept having shortness of breath, numbness in his left arm and his jaws were “locking” I got pretty concerned because I know that all of those alone,let alone all together, are signs of a heart attack. We quickly rushed off to the ER shortly after coming back from eating. I know I called My mom as we were getting in the car and she was freaking out. Honestly, David’s family never gives a rats you know what about a darn thing, so I didn’t call them..

They quickly took him back, and then gave him his own little room. We did an ekg, chest xrays and a lot of blood pressure monitoring/heart rate monioring as well. The first bp reading that they recorded was 174/85! His pulse was like in the 120′s as well.

They kept offering us heated blankets, and in my case snacks or drinks. I never took them up on it, but i’m serious when I tell you I think if they would have asked one more time I would have!

They had to give david something to calm him down..he was shaking like a leaf and the bp/heart rate wouldn’t fall.. it was scary for sure.

Around 11:30 we finally got to leave. they really didn’t say much as to what really happened, but in my opinion I think his BP got really high, cause the heart attack symptoms and then caused him to panic!

When we left the hospital we came out on a back road, and well.. got a little lost. I know that sounds so freakin stupid, but I never go on that road! Finally got going in the right direction, got home and went to bed.

Thursday I spent most of my day in bed asleep! Friday, I can’t really remember..I know david is working on fridays again, so..it’s weird for me to have another day to myself! Saturday we went to my mom’s for a while for dinner and then went to target and kohls just so we could be out of the house!

Yesterday we spent doing a whole lot of nothing, and.. yay now we are caught up till today!

I need to start a load of towels/whites, clean sam’s box (semi pointless..it needs dumped and restarted) and to vacuum the living room! also have 2 posts to write later on!

david should be home in a hour and a half..so i’m out for now! ttyl!

Headache-3 Nichole-0 if anyone was wondering seriously…

I haven’t done much today..honestly I did so good with cleaning out closets (well, cleaning up the closets) Last week…plus I’m pretty caught up online (except commenting, i know i know..)

My mom had thought she was going ot have to have gallbladder surgery.. CVS minute clinc told her yesterday to go to ER and be admitted. With the way her insurance is, she couldn’t just go on her own, she has to go to reg. family dr. well, they were also telling her her gallbladder had went acute..

When she went for an ultrasound and more bloodwork this morning they are now thinking her thyroid is majorly out of whack…they have her on some meds and such so hopefully the will take effect soon for her! She’s queezy and can’t eat and on and on

I swear with everything in me I think i’m pregnant, but I have taken 2 pregnancy tests and apparently they don’t agree I don’t ever remember being this moody and stuff in my life.. I guess time will tell…

I still haven’t got to go to the store..and I am so sick of like everything under the sun food wise! ughers!

I have a craving for white rice and brown gravy, and i’m expecting some money via paypal…if it comes through i’m gonna go have some tonight!

well i’m out. gonna take a shower and chill before david gets home. I am not sure if he is off at 3 or 330 today..they have been switching it up here the last few days..sometimes he goes in at 7 and sometimes 730 as well..

catch ya latter

So it is day #2 of the headache that doesn’t want to go away It really really sucks because I can see spots, my ear kinda hurts, and i’m queezy too! seriously? I have about had it!

Not much for me to get done online or off but still.. if I want to spend a day in bed, i’d like it to be because I WANT to, not that I feel like I HAVE to you know?

I am thinking about taking a really nice bubble bath and seeing how that works out…If anyone has any advice on ways to get rid of a headache please pass it along to me! I would appreciate it. For some reason advil is NOT working…

I am thinking about going back to not drinking soda again. It is such an annoying habit to break, and I was doing so good! I am pretty much only drinking sprite, but still.. meh!

Well i’m out for now.. gonna vacuum the rug (oh boy, NOISE!!) and see what else I can get into (or not)

later

Well my headache has decided to keep on sticking with me! MEH!!!

Right now i’m waiting for david to get home. We are going to have my famous “The Soup” and well it is a perfect day for it, with this cold nasty wet weather we are having! I can’t say I wouldn’t mind eating some arby’s or something like that but.. yeah..every now and then I guess I should make stuff at home lol.

I need to get mom to come up and take me to the store ASAP. I do not even KNOW the last time we went to the store..I know it was during a super double or triple at harris teeter and it was a long time ago….I am low on about everything you can imagine! Meats, Snacks..Canned goods.. It would probably be easier to tell you what i have, instead of what I need!

Sam scratched david in the face this morning, and I hope it has gotten better since then. I didn’t see it, I just knew it happened. I guess thats what happens when you roughhouse with a scrappy cat!

I don’t have ANY plans for this evening…basically cuddling up on the couch watching tv.. might take a bubble bath.. sounds good to me!

I just wanted to write a few lines while I had a second..catch ya later gators
