Glad that is over!

We are watching the Opening Ceremonies for the Olympics.
We find some of the things that they do very weird.
What is up with the Polar Bear scene?
Really?
Can't we just introduce the teams and call it a night?
OK, off my soapbox...

This week has been a blur.
I, for one, am glad that is it about over!

Remember me saying that I just wasn't feeling well on Tuesday and that I slept for the majority of the day?  Well, it continued into Wednesday.
I was having terrible abdominal pain that also went up my back.
I finally caved at 6pm and went to our local prompt care to see what was going on.
They referred me to the main ER.
Everything points to my gallbladder acting up.
My blood work and sonogram came back fine.
All I have to say is.....if I am fine, why was I having pain after I ate?
Last night I finally had no pain after eating.
Today I have been pain free too.
I am to stay away from fatty, greasy foods.
Yipee!
I go see my regular doctor on Tuesday morning.
I am hoping they refer me to a GI specialist.
I don't want to drag this out and keep having trouble.
I would prefer to plan out any hospital stays if at all possible :}

Gabby was finally able to get her prescription for her contacts and glasses.
She is also back to driving.
No glasses = no driving!
She only has a few weeks before she gets her license so she needs to work on driving my car.  She seems to be back in the swing of things.
She got the all clear from her wisdom teeth doctor today too.

I spent the morning loving on 6-12 month olds at church.
They were high maintenance today!
Lots of tears and poor Grady, just wanted to go to sleep.
I love that little guy!!

I spent the afternoon at work.
Those crazy heart shapes cakes were driving me over the edge.
We only have two of them so it was hard to keep up with the demands of Valentine's day with only two pans!  We made it through and we will see if I made enough cakes.
We don't want to make too many because nobody will buy them after Sunday. 
It was crazy busy all day and I finally got out of there about 5:15.

The girls have a volleyball tourney again this weekend so that is were we will be.
Next week will find me back to work on Monday to try to get caught up from the weekend.  I will be putting in many hours next week.

Right now, it is time to rest!

Hugs!!

Snow & Softball

My goodness where has the week gone?

We seem to be seeing snow more and more frequently.
Today we had a snow day so the girls were home.
They are hoping for another day off tomorrow but I doubt it unless the wind picks up and starts blowing the snow around.
I spent much of my day sleeping.
It did not sleep well last night (up at 2 and 3) so I took two Benedryl and that pretty much knocked me out.
I woke up at 5:30 to answer the call from the school telling us school was cancelled.
My tummy started rolling so I took a Pepto told the girls there was no school and went back to bed.
I woke up about 10am and had breakfast then went back to bed until about 1pm to get my shower.
It felt good!
Not sure what is going on with my body this winter but I have had more trouble with my health.
Must be old age....

This past weekend the girls played in a softball tourney.



They played in the Dome.
It has astroturf and two fullsize softball diamonds inside.
Or they can have a soccer tourney.
They have played there before and they enjoy being able to play when there is snow on the ground
They were substitute players for the team as some of their girls were playing basketball for their high school teams.  They played well and their coach asked what it would take to get them to play for him this summer.  We are already committed to another team but will be looking at them for next year.
Sweet girls and good coaches - not always easy to come by!

This weekend brings a volleyball tournament so our weekend is booked full again.

We are still dealing with Gabby's eye infection issues.
Tomorrow she goes to another doctor who is a specialist.
He is going to take a look to see why her eye is still slightly inflammed.
We are really hoping that she can get a new prescription this week.
She can't use her contacts and her glasses prescription doesn't work for her any more.
She may only be able to wear her contacts during sporting events and have to wear her glasses for everything else.  Sadly, I think this all stems from her previous doctor not telling her how to properly take care of her contacts.  They helped her get them in an out but not how to take care of them.  Should she actually get to wear contacts again, I will help her to make sure she keeps them clean and germ free.

We are anxiously awaiting the start of the Olympics this weekend.
I love to watch curling.  I really got into it 4 years ago and think it is an interesting sport.

Time for me to get a few things done before bed.
Maybe even read my book club book....

Hugs!
