Yesterday was my blog's 1st birthday!!!

Happy belated birthday!!

It was also the Rose Run which even though I haven't been running, I was planning on being in. It looks like I would have done pretty well too.

But...We went to Woody's after golf on Wednesday and I got food poisoning or something. I was so sick Wednesday night. I stayed home from work on Thursday and didn't feel good the whole day. I called in on Friday then my mom called and she called the doctor for me. Realy all he did was tell me to drink Gatorade and gave me antiboitics. (my body HAS to be immune to them by now)

I had taken yesterday off for the race and felt a bit better when I woke up so I went to the pool but didn't use any sunscreen so I was hot with chills and my right thigh was on FIRE. I didn't sleep at all so I'm home to day too. Now I'm totally out of FMLA and there is still 6 months to go. I've had nurovirous 3 times in 8 months. I'm on discipline so I can't be tardy and my script scores are low so I can't get any a-time. Good god.

Mom, Jodie and I went golfing to Pine Hollow and I played sooo well. Starting this Wednesday I'm slowing WAY done. Going to take at least one practice swing for every shot and put the club away after each shot. I'm also going to get a new driver and get a new 3 wood. I'm going to keep the 7,9, 11 etc woods and probably the irons since I hardly use them. I'm putting left hand low and that is helping. I need to work on my aim too. It is getting a bit better. I'm going to try to go to the range at least once a week.

But I need to run too. Ugg.

Today my Mom stops over to drop off the key so that I can go get Jade after going to the doctor. I didn't hear her come in then I hear (from a dead sleep) "EQUINOX, there's water all over the basement!!" What?!!!
So I go to the basement, evidently Monday AFTERNOON when I did a load of laundry, (I'm lazy and didn't go put it in the dryer or do another load...well technically I'm sick too) the hose broke and water was running FULL BLAST for probably 18 hours!!

Ugg. 2007 is not going well. Except on the plus side my basement will be VERY, VERY clean.

So far Richard (from Servicemaster) says it will be over $500.

Well Richard left two of those HUGE blowers like Meijer puts in the entryways to dry things out. Luckily the basement isn't carpeted. There are just big pieces and a fake oriental rug in the laundry room. He took all of those with him to clean at the shop. I have to get rid of my cardboard boxes from 7-Up (distributors) that butthead got that I put all my recycling in. That I'm upset about. But I asked him if I could let them dry out and he said no it would mold. He left some boxes so I could go through junk. At least it'll force me to throw things out. What a mess.

The insurance adjustor never did call back today. I have a ton of work to do tomorrow. I should probably call Emmons and see how much a dumpster will cost.

Oh yeah and the doctor says I have nurovirus. I've been off work since last Thursday.

Looks 1,000x's better. Just some in hair line and scalp. So happy!!

Chest not coming along as well. Kinda yucky.

So I haven't posted about my "adult acne" lately. I had my 30 day follow up a few weeks ago with the doctor. Not sure if I wrote about it. If I did, this will be a repeat.

I was supposed to use the steroid cream every day for 3 weeks, the every other day the last week. Well I couldn't find my appointment card and hadn't written it in any of my calendars so I was still using it everyday when I got the reminder call. I wasn't doing very well with taking the pills though.

Most of the scabs were cleared up except around my temples and scalp. The doctor said that the cream thins the skin so its important on my forehead to use it only every other day. But my scalp it's ok for everyday. Which is good because it's so stressful at work that I pick at them all the time.

Now my temples are getting a little better. He says I'll have to keep taking the pills.

I took these pictures today.

Last week my psychiatrist put me on Xanax. It worked ok the first two or three days, now I can't sleep. I have to work tomorrow (had today off and called in yesterday) so I took an Ativan even though he told me to stop. I had to, I haven't slept in 4 days.

Well, I felt soo much better today. I was still tired when I woke up. I tried to pick up the house a little. Got my bento from Sunday together, the trash and left the house at 6am. Traffic jam at M-14 around 7 took about 20 minutes to get through.

I felt ok even during work. I ate yogurt w/granola at break with some cheese cubes and grapes. Took my 2liter of Vernors. I was scared that I still felt icky but I guess I was ok.

Work was busy, I've been too sick to take my meds so I'm crying over everthing. Some transfered broad in WI control is worthless and pissing me off. Then at the end of the day Hilda tells me I 16hours over on my vacation time. How can that be? I should still have 1 or 2 days even after taking this 1 1/2 days I just took.

Adrionne will go over it with me on Thursday.

I left my camera at Ma's house on Thanksgiving so no picture of the bento. Boo! It was kinda cute taking my box and eating out of it. I need to pack something I can use my chopsticks with.

Still no Hello Kittys. Uggg.

I came home 1/2 day from work yesterday. I was throwing up and work. As soon as I got home, I put my bento into the refrig and ran to the bathroom. I was throwing up the rest of the night. I ended up calling Ma and crying because I was so sick. I planned on going to work this morning but I had a rough night. Sweaty, nightmares, then couldn't sleep, hot/cold. I called this morning for a vacation day, luckily I also called for a demand day. I think he said this is my last vacation day. There's still a month to go and I'm not sure how much FMLA time I have. Not much. Maybe 3 or 4 hours if I'm lucky.

I ate 4 crackers and am drinking some Hi-C. I took some of Jade's remedies. So far I haven't thrown up but I'm very nauseous still.

I feel and look like crap. I did manage to take a shower and put a load of towels and pj's in the wash. The maids are going to think this house was a mess the whole week I was off, but really it was good and I was caught up on dishes until Friday night when I first started feeling sick.

So I ended up throwing up after I talked to Ma probably around 2pm. I had already called the doctor around 11:30 because I was so nauseous. Ma went to pick up te prescription but of course Meijer didn't have it ready. They had to get it off the voice mail then fill it so she didn't bring it until 6:15pm. I'm surprised I die before then. I took that then watched tv and went to bed at 8:30.

I've been on vacation since last Friday. I go back to work tomorrow 8-4:30pm. So what happens today? I get sick. Lovely. I've been throwing up since aprox 7pm. It's 10:30 now. As soon as I think I'm done and I stumble out of the bathroom I have to turn around and go again. Yuck.

Why is the last thing you eat not the first to come back up? I think it's goofy that the first thing I had today (which was Cherry Coke) was the first thing to come up. How long does digestion take? Especially of liquid? Then the last thing I had was Alka Selzter was the last to come up? Very weird. And gross.

We went to Ground Round for Kevin's birthday. I didn't feel great afterwards but I sure didn't think I'd be this sick. I almost didn't go because there food sucks. But I went and had a Margarita and salad although I only ate some of it. Guess that will teach me.

I took a nap earlier but I guess I should try to get some sleep.

Back to work. Yuck.
