TGIThursday!!

OK, this really isn't meant to be a downer post, I am, pretty much in a good place it has just been one hell of a week.

1.  Work is so busy.  I am working late whenever I can to get to the things that I haven't been able to update off my desk.  Tuesday night I stayed late and did data entry for some paperwork that was over a year old.  I am just glad it wasn't on my desk.  I volunteered to do another team members data entry since I had to work late anyway and it was from his stack.

2.  Found out Tuesday that my mom has to have chemo for 6 months/12 sessions.  The surgeon said he thought he got it all but since it had move to the lymph nodes they are going to do this just to make sure.  They told her that she will not get sick and will not lose her hair.  I have my fingers crossed.  She has to go to a class next week.  My dad is going with her but I am thinking about going with her too just to make sure I know what is going on. 

3.  I have had a lot of problems keeping food down.  I think it is stress and over 100 degree heat.  Monday I ran two miles and threw up 3 times.  I couldn't keep G2 or water down for about an hour after the run.  It was getting to the point I was freaking out a little.  Tuesday I ate sliced deli turkey and cheese for lunch.  I found out about my mom shortly after eating and threw up after that.  I never get sick on deli meat so I thought that was strange and wrote it off to stress.  Later that night, about maybe 10 or so I started really throwing up, not "stuck" throwing up.  I ended up sick all night.  Dennis said he was waiting for me to come get him to take me to the ER but I was really too sick to care and would have rather just sat at home and died.  I finally got to sleep and felt better about 4am.  I went to urgent care the next morning and they think I had food poisoning from the turkey.  They told me I really should have gone to the ER so they could monitor my band or take the fluid out but I seriously was too sick to care.  Everything feels fine so I am not too worried about it.  I go see the band doctor on August 6 and I am thinking about having some fluid taken out since I am throwing up so much.  I have never had that done before but I don't want to mess up the band and have to have it removed.

4.  My weight is down to 113 thanks to being sick.  My doctor told me last time I was in to stop losing and that was 5 pounds ago.  I really don't know how to stop.  I think 115 is where I want to stay. 

5.  Saturday is my boudoir pictures!!  I am so nervous!!  I don't make it a practice to prounce around in my unmentionables, let alone let someone take pictures of it!!  The girl that is doing the pictures is a master of lighting and posing so I hope she can do a good job hiding my rolls.  The pictures are at 11:00, I go get my make-up done at 9:30. 

6.  My sister is taking one of her newly adopted chihuahuas to have leg surgery on both of its legs tomorrow.  She adopted them from a place about an hour and a half away in OKC, she wants to just stay in the city since the drive is so long. I originally told her I would take off work and go with her but I am way too busy especially since I took off yesterday sick and I want to save some leave just in case my mom needs me for something oh, and the dog has to be there at 7:30 am!!  I think I would get a hotel and just go back to the room and sleep!   WTF are you going to do at 7:30 anyway?

7.  I want to take a nap, all of a sudden I can't seem to complete a thought. 

8.  Since I'm not going with my sister to OKC tomorrow I don't get to go to the Coach outlet.  So I went to the mall at lunch and bought the purse I almost bought last weekend but decided I really didn't need because it was too expensive, again with the not thinking straight ;-). 

9.  I am so ready for summer to be over (sorry RB Barbie).  I want to run outside without passing out from heat and to to the mall at lunch and not be run over by unsupervised pre-teens.

10.  My new medal board is supposed to be ready tomorrow!!  I have 4 medals to hang on it from this years races and I hope to have 2 more by the end of the year.  Which means I will need a new one in time for Christmas.  This one is going to say "HALF FANATIC #2424" my old one says "I RUN FOR BLING"  think I will put "one step at a time" on my next one.
