Blustery Day Outside, but not in…
March 31, 2008 by becky74
It is cold and sleeting outside right now. This is the kind of spring weather that I absolutely hate! However, I am actually in a good mood. It feels weird to be happy, I think I forgot what it feels like
I’m on my second day of taking my whole dose of meds. I’m thinking I may lose some weight in the process. It has completely wiped away my appetite, plus I don’t think I could eat if I wanted to. But I suppose once I get used to it, the side effects will go away.
We got a new fridge. We were originally going to get one with the water in the door handle. Then we realized that with Seth, we would have a newly man-made lake in the house. So we opted to not go that route. Anyway, its so smooth and pretty. i give it til the end of the week before it has a scratch on it
We got a great deal on it, so with the extra savings, we got a new over the oven microwave, too!! I was so excited I almost did my happy dance at the appliance store…but my meds aren’t working that good yet
I tookk Seth to Barnes and Noble this morning to get a book that was recommended to me. He was so well behaved, I thought he was someone’s child. We looked at all kinds of children’s books as well. I’ve never seen so many books dedicated to tractors and construction equipment in my life. He ended up picking out a book on dump trucks to take home. SInce he was so good, I took my chances and took him out to lunch. To a place that doesn’t have an indoor playground!! And, he stayed in his seat, actually ate more than half his lunch and was polite!! He kept saying hi to everyone at the store and at the restaurant. He was charming all the little old ladies, but no one offered to take him home
Once we got home, he said he was tired and WILLINGLY laid down on the couch to take his nap!! I’m convinced that he is a pod person…something has taken over his body. I’m sure that once he wakes up, he will be back to his usual busy self. But it was a great morning with him!!
I work the next 3 days 3a-3p. Really not looking forward to that at all. There is just something unnatural about waking up at 1:30 in the morning. Not to mention that I’m usually starving by 4:00. But with no appetite these days, that shouldn’t be a problem! I’m off to wash my scrubs…..
Hey Becky, I have been so busy the last few days I haven’t checked in.. I am hoping tomorrow is a little slower so that I can catch up on my blog reading
have a good few days at work!!
Don’t ya just luv it when kids behave??? I used to look at my daughter when she was sleeping, and see how innocent and cute she looked, then my brain kicked in and realized,, OMG, she is just recharging her batteries!
Sounds like you’ve got some business ahead of you!!
Your “Spring” reminds me of mine : non-existant.
Chicago hasn’t figured out that it’s supposed to be warm out EVERY day, not once a week! lol
Lori… I almost spit out my tea when I read your comment! That is too funny!
Sheila… I think it will go from snowy weather to 90 and humid. And then I will be complaining about that
I love heat and humidity….I don’t care how scummy it makes me feel….being cold makes my body hurt and ache all over!
The only bad thing about those kind of days in Chicago is the smell coming off the lake and river sometimes…..eeeeewwwwww. Not a pleasant experience, take my word on it!
Sheila…I’ve been to Chciago in the summer and I know the smell you mean…
It’s terrible, isn’t it?
