It’s 1:45am. I have a GI series today at 3:30pm. I can’t eat or drink for 8 hours before. Ugh. Right now, Caetie and GG both are crying with their ears hurting. I seriously hope I am not going to have to make a trip to the ER tonight. Allie was throwing up about an hour ago. I am hoping that was her meds upsetting her stomach and NOT a virus! AHH!!

Ben’s eyes are NASTY! EW! They are runny and green. Gross. He cries when I wipe them. He does this every time he gets a cold. He has since he was a newborn. GG did too but she grew out of it. It is GROSS. I am washing my hands WAY TOO MUCH here lately. Blah. Dry hands.

Tonight… as in… today is officially Thursday and in 18 hours Rachel and I have our big plans! I sooooooooooooo hope it works out. Only way it wont is if someone is in the hospital or I am just physically unable to go. I am going to do this! UGH! We have been planning this for a while. We are going to eat at Demo’s downtown and then go to the live taping of Chonda Pierce at the Ryman. She is a Christian SOUTHERN Comedian. She is FUNNY! I have soooooooo been looking forward to this! I just hope I don’t pass this junk over to Rachel. :? I will try not to breath on you Rach. haha.

I will be RUSHING after my GI series! I will be STARVING too! WOW!

Okay…. PLEASE PRAY for us! We are dyin ovah here!

PS Emily.. I use to do the vault! :P

I had my list. My Dr is a newbie… which I wanted.. they tend to listen and be more friendly. She was super nice and listened to everything I said.

My list:

My feet- I have plantar fasciitis. I already knew that. Officially diagnosis is nice. She told me some foot stretches that I am suppose to try for a month and see if it gets better. She said my shoes were awesome. I was glad. If it doesn’t get better, she is sending me to physical therapy. If it doesn’t get better after that she is sending me to a foot Dr.

Cool deal.

My hands-  I have Carpel Tunnel. I have it in 2 spots on my left wrist and 1 spot on the other. I have to get wrist splints from Walmart to sleep in and we will recheck that when I go back next month.

I also have arthritis in my left wrist and finger. I knew that too. :lol: She could see and feel it. Ibuprofen will do for now.

Cool deal.

My hernia- At first she told me they are going to do the scope but her head Dr said to do something simpler first. I was GLAD! I have always been scared of those. She said I would be sedated, but still… whew. So Thursday at 3:30 I got to drink some dye as they take a series of Xrays while I swallow it down. From there we will know what exactly is going on and MAYBE need a scope. *cries* (Don’t panic Rach! We are still good!) I wont be able to eat or drink 8 hours before.  So I will be PIGGING out that night! haha. Hope I don’t choke. LMBO!

Kinda cool deal.

My tiredness, lack of sleep, and hormones- I had lots of blood work done that we will know more about in 2 or 3 days. They are checking my thyroid, for anemia, and other things… We will know more after that comes back. *sigh*

Uncool waiting deal.

She is leaving the blood clotting stuff and the spleen issue with Dr Magee. 8) Works for me.

Cool deal.
