They changed the time to noon instead of 2:30 for the procedure so i gotta be there at 10 instead of 1:30. sooooooo I might have an afternoon to feel sick from the anestetic. xD
Which reminds me. I need to go buy my dad's christmas gift, and get some Boxes from the post office for rachel's birthday present that I should have sent a long time ago.
Risks of Surgery:
Injury to Colon, Uterus, Bladder (which will be fixed if it happens)
Bleeding out (which I have a wrist band that tells them there is blood set aside just for me in case it happens)
Infection (caused afterwards cause of a peice left behind)
Death (from anestetic)
Sickness (after surgery cause of anestetic <- common)
Doc said the highest risk is death from the anestetic which is super rare and she's been doing these things for years so I feel a little nervous about the procedure itself, but fine for the most part.
So just in case my body is like "see ya" when i'm put under >.<
I love everyone. :3
And michael gets all my stuff. xP (light humor not ment to be offensive. o_o)
I work in 20 minutes too ;_; Which means I'm going to be miserable at work. Outside is hot too. The cold front has gone away I guess. UGH.
Phil will understand if i can't work as well as I normally would. He also knows what's happening and scheduled me over the weekend and gave me the week to have the surgery and rest from it. An abortion (or inevitable miscarry) isn't too hard on the body from what i hear and read and most people can work the next day. Just mild cramping to deal with. I'd rather not work with mild cramping :P Soooooo they better schedule me for tues or wed.
Oki time to go.
-_-
My options are to wait for the sack to take care of itself and miscarry, or to have the doc do it. I'd have to go under for the doc to do it and there are it's own risks there. But I think i'm going to have the doc do it. I'd rather not wait a few days to several weeks for it to do it's thing. AND when that happens sometimes the doctors have to intervene and take it out anyway.
I was sad at first. And cried, but it just isn't my time to have children. I'm okay with it.
Ultrasound didn't go so hot. Docs are concerned, we are worried. I'll explain more when I get more information.
------------------
On a good note:
I got some pics of Sloth enjoying herself on michael's shoulder.
( Sloth and Michael. Pics :D )( Read more... )
Yes your read correctly. It sings to me. A feature I wasn't expecting. But it plays little pretty notes when selecting my settings and turning it on and off... and when it's done with a cycle one does a pretty little note over and over (not obnoxious at all) and the other one does a little jingle. Very pleasant. And it was a surprise to me. xD I wouldn't mind if it was quiet, normal, or obnoxious, but the singing is a plus. :3
*in total bliss*
Who knew someone could get so excited over a washer and dryer.
I'm in a very depressing mood today. I have been for the past couple of weeks really. It'll go up and down, but having a kid is making me remember alot of things in my childhood that were both good and bad. Mostly bad though. Makes me want to write an informative letter to my mom all over again (which i've wanted to do pretty much every year sense I left home).
( Mom and Dad Rant Good and Bad )
My money was going to go towards the tv we got from morris, buuuut if he does take it back, or let us sell it then i'll be able to use my hard earned (and very slim) money on an Art Tablet. I want the new Intuos4 Medium tablet. On amazon it's going for 330 and free shipping. On the site it's 350 plus shipping. I wish the price difference btwn small and large were a bit better though. 200 for the small pad 350 for the medium. Such a huge difference. ugh. But I'd really like one. I also need to get a working updated photoshop. Photoshop 7 is pretttttty old. :p
So before our baby comes we want to be sure we're set on a couple of things that'll save me money in paper, and save living room with space.
I wanted a new couch, but we're just going to buy a slip cover. I'd also like a plastic wrap as well (to avoid cleaning the couch if something spills, pees, or whatever on it) but i don't think that'll happen. Slip covers aren't cheap eitehr. >.< 60-100+ dollars. But buying a new couch (especially the one I want) will be too costly.
========================
In other news...
Next weeks plans:
7th: Clean kitchen, dining, living room and take laundry door down.
8th: Watch and cry with joy for washer and dryer to be hooked up. Then use it like crazy.
9th: My first Ultrasound (scary)
12th: Go see Disney's The Princess and the Frog with either Heather, Shadrika, or both. :p
Ask boss for the 18th-20th off and the 24th and 26th or even the weekend after christmas off.
^ will be hard though. I asked for the 8th and 9th off already. If I can't have the 18-20th off and the 24th off, then I want the whole weekend after christmas off. I'm going to give them the choice. I don't need both whole weekends cause If get christmas weekend off, I can visit friends and family, but If i don't get the weekend off I want the weekend before so i can visit friends, then go to my parents for christmas eve and day. It's alot of traveling at once though, so i'm going to push for christmas weekend. :x There are like 4 GA's that never get scheduled, except on Black Friday. They say the day after christmas is a crazy day for the store, but i'm sure they'll do fine without one of thier seasonals. I worked the whole black friday weekend AND the monday after, so I'd like to get christmas weekend off. If I don't get my way with this I might have to tell them sorry and quit (as much as I don't want to). It's plenty of notice too. And i know as seasonals your kind of required to, buuuut I want to spend more then part of christmas day with my family. :( And i want to see my friends.
Last night I had chinese food for dinner and for the first time I didn't get that nasea feeling afterwords. I've been getting it with everything, so I was expecting it, but it didn't happen. So i'm going to pace myself with it though. Once I eat something twice I'm sick of it (for the things i crave).
Well last night and this morning I had really bad gas. I know TMI, but it's not normal. It was painful. Extremely painful. -___- It's calmed down a little, but still hurts to some degree.
I thought about calling in work, buuuuut I don't really feel it's that great of an excuse. I'd rather save the call in (however many I have) for when i'm contageous (flu, cold, ect).
On a plus side I have almost a week off :D If they call me to come in, i'm going to say no. I want the break. It's not alot of work, or long shifts, but there is a smell that i'm getting sick of there. (thanks to Dante's Pizza *gag*)
I think for breakfast i'm going to get some sausage biscuits or something. I dunno yet. -_- I'm starving, but don't want to eat anything D:
I don't think people should do it, and if they are they should quit. Not only is it a pollutant to our already very polluted planet, it's harmful to the body no matter if it's just occassional or frequent. There are other stress relievers out there, so if stress is the issue try figureing something out. You can excersize, swim, drink less coffee, Meditate, Yoga, Tai Chi (<- mega stress reliever), and many other things.
I think smoking should be banned everywhere except thier own home. Smoke in your home outside of your home, but keep it to that. Sense that is pretty impossible, then there should be strict rules on ONLY using the designated areas for smoking. 15 feet away from public buildings, not inside, ect. You can even make it like a little comfy obvious area so it's more desirable, and well known for the none-smokers to avoid. Like my friend terra said, campuses have a problem. Make little outside areas for summer, and maybe like large shed type covered or indoor areas for when it's colder.
I hate it (with a passion) when people smoke right outside doors and walk in with it. I've even seen some hold in that last breath of smoke and let it out INSIDE to show rebellion or get that last bit of nicotine, i don't even know, but there all jackasses whether it's intentional or not.
My cat on the other hand is the opposite. She is more affectionate, happy all the time, and when she comes to lay on me, she avoids my tummy (which is strange). She isn't heavy and I think the purring will be good for the baby, but she seems to understand that that area is a precious area right now. hehe.
=================
Our house is so crowded right now xP So much stuff. Bulky stuff. ugh. It frustrates me.
OH and today I work. I tried to get the day off cause it'd be akward for me and michael to work out the car situation, but I'm the only seasonal (GA) that was taught the register extensively so no one can pick up my shift (unless it were one of the managers ;_;) Working 4 days in a row is strange and tireing, even if the shifts are small.
Baby Disease. It's spreading or something cause our supervisors wife just found out she's pregnant. Michael's brother is having a baby the same month I am... it's so strange. On another note though, heather (supervisors wife) will be in a bigger boat then me come baby time. Michael is pretty much garaunteed to be there for the birth, her husband might not be. :( AND cause he's now in the same boat... I fear that there will be no sympathy towards michael cause someone else is going through it too. So his chances of getting deployed just doubled if not trippled. *sigh*
Yesterday at work I was still feeling tired and my back started killing me. Like reallly bad. I ended up sitting ALOT at work, and it didn't help at all. I felt bad that it hurt and didn't really do to much work. Luckily they had me on register most of the time. It's weird though. My back still hurts today. I got alot of sleep, but it's painful. T_T Lower back too, not upperback, so I cant just deal with it for very long.
This baby better be worth it, I swear xP
When I stabbed it to check it's temp. and took it out of the oven, It gushed with juices... AND was still gushing when I carved it 20 minutes later. Biting into the BREAST part of it (the dryest part of most people's turkey) is dribbling with juices and yumminess. And no people, it's not undercooked. :D 170 for the chicken breast and 180 for the Thigh is where it's supposed to be at.
Yum!
Also going to brag about my Apple Pie. YOU PEOPLE. One of these days I need to have a friend thanksgiving and make this amazingness for everyone.
*shine*
*note: don't tell my parents, but I think my turkey was either just as juicey as thiers...OR juicier.. *gasp* (i say juicier)
Then we bought a blue ray player/surround sound system. That for right now doesn't seem to work with out tv :( Well the new cable we bought doesn't *cries*. I dunno if i want to return it or just wait till feb (when we plan to finance a new tv).
OH if your wondering in feb. we're going to be finishing our warranty payments (that's 150 bucks a month) and our advancement will be paid off so we'll have an extra 150 there too :3. So we plan on financing a brand new big ass amazing tv for 20-40 bucks a month. Yeah interest will be higher then just buying it, buuuuuut it's something we really want and we used our amazing tv fundings on washer and dryer. :p
The differences btwn the two are the dryer isn't steam on this set where the other set it was and it has a 3 dollars energy saving difference a month. meaning the other one was MORE energy saving... but by 3 dollars. The plus side is... all the cheaper washers... the regular ones (not the front load) are a difference of 10-20 dollars. :p So we're saving alot still.
I almost cried at Sears though. Michael did too xP
Tomorrow is what I'm more excited about. We went to Sears yesterday to see what kind of sales they will have on black friday and lemme tell ya. It's amazing. The washer and dryer we were looking at we'd have to get there at 3am to hopefully get a ticket for the 4 sets of this cheap stackable washer and dryer for 600 bucks. BUT we asked about other things and the sales guy told us about this amazing deal on a Steam washer and dryer. There are as many as they can sell from 8-12 pm for 1k. We were planning on spending around 1100 or 1200 dollars on a decent, but cheap washer and dryer set. But with this deal I get an AMAZING washer and dryer. It's one of the ones I've always wanted but could never afford. I think right now, the set together would cost 2300 dollars, so the savings a STEAL. I think the washer was 1200 and the dryer was 1070 something. :O
Well anywho. I need to go find an open store to buy a couple things we forgot. :3 Toodles.
Indy last night scared the shit out of me. Twice. First before we went to bed I patted the empty space beside me and he jumped onto my stomach (i grabbed his scruff really hard and pinned his ass to the bed giving him the crazy eye). THen in the middle of the night he muttered a ruffled bark, and howl. I've never heard him howl before, but his dream must have been crazy enough to make him howl. o_o He is also pissing me off with the litter box shit. Literally. He keeps eating my cats poop >.< Which means I can't have him near my face for like... the whole day. This dog is always in my face.
Anyway. I'm debating on making the pies today. I'm making both pumpkin and apple. I realize i'm not getting enough sweet things, except on the days I work. The days I work I get a sprite (which is soooooooo good). I should buy some sprite next pay period. mm
I've determined that grocery shopping whilst pregnant is a waist of money. Our pantry is full of stuff and I don't want any of it. Maybe the mac and cheese, but that's about it. So next paycheck it's just milk, eggs, cheese, OJ, hashbrowns, and snacks. I'll just take out or go get something to eat for dinner otherwise.

----------------------------------------
Okay, to my day now. Lots of things to do today. On top of it all, i'm suuuuuuper tired. I worked my longest shift sense I got a job last night. And I work as soon as we open today. AND I gotta instruct the manager on what he needs to do (I have the POWAH! hehe). Sense I helped the Store manager and ast. manager do marketting last night, I get to give the manager who wasn't here for it the heads up. AND the Store manager wanted me to learn marketting (I think he wants me keep working after seasonal). He already told me I'm a candidate, but to say for sure... he's not able to say because that would be favouritism (respectable). I told him when he told me I was a candidate that I was worried being pregnant was going to hinder that opportunity, but he just said when the time comes (if i did get the permanent job) that i'd just take maternity leave and come back when I can (figuratively xD).
If Michael deploys though, that'll damper those plans. Daycare in the military is cheap, but getting paid 7.25 an hour will probably barely cover daycare, which means staying home would be more benefiting. If he doesn't deploy, then I can work evenings and weekends. I hope he doesn't. That'll really suck.
Back to my day.. After work i'm going to rest, then if I have time before I have to go pick up michael, try to clean up my computer desk and set up my computer. We moved our computers from the computer room (spare room) to the living room. It all fits, but our desks are soooooo huge and they don't match each other, let alone anything else, so it looks really sloppy. Oh well though. I want to get two matching smaller desks and put a small sorta drawer/printer stand btwn the two smaller desks. It'll make this part of the living room look better. Not happening soon though. -_- 3 bedrooms sound really nice right about now xP
===================
Pregnancy Update:
Dec. 9th is my ultrasound. I'm excited, and nervous (not tooooo nervous). I still feel an adversion to most foods, but sometimes one thing will come to mind and I can chow down on it without feeling like throwing up. Of course I have to eat a few bites...stop...wait..then continue with the rest or i get super queezy. Sometimes i'd rather throw up then feel queezy xP. I also feel queezy on an empty stomach, but when nothing seems good and your stomach turns even more when you think of, or see, the food around you... -_- It's quite frustrating. When I'm cold, the panic sensation I used to get when I'd start having a panic attack sets in. It's an uncomfortable feeling in my stomach... like a twist and a cramp before the shaking occurs. That is also frustrating.
Right now.. all I want to eat are donuts for breakfast. :p Michael gave me the go ahead, but do I really need a donut (NO), but oh gosh... T_T DONUT! So i'm having biscuits with some butter and maybe jelly. That'll do I suppose. Not appealing, but no queezy feeling looking or thinking about them. Just a Do-Not-Want feeling. le sigh.
Oki that's enough xD
If things aren't worse. We signed up for Direct Deposit and for some reason our stores process is just screwed up and NO one has it yet. :x Even the managers who have been there for a while. >.< SO i'm SOL.
Washer and Dryer have to wait till next weekend. Bank takes 5 buisness days to xfer money from one bank to another (by the way Bank Of America sucks ass). We're low on money now, but I'm not worried cause we did xfer alot of money and it'll be there by next friday. wooo. Maybe I can find a good washer and dryer deal on black friday? I don't work till later that day :D
