LOL, remember the Sex and the City episode where Sam had to babysit Brady (Miranda's son) and he kept crying and crying...so she put a big vibe in his seat...kept him quiet and smiling the whole day (it is what probably kept her smiling too...sorry, to good to pass that one up)! LOL, thanks for the giggles. I feel soooo sick. This has got to go away soon!

Hey Girls~ No work again for me today :rolleyes2:. I am not happy about it either. It is A REALLY bad time of year to be out. I woke at 5:30, and felt so dizzy. I went into the shower and still am weak and now dizzy. The hard part is missing during this crucial time of prepping (cramming all the info into their brains and praying they retain it). But I am still feeling sick. It is hard to explain but I feel like I can feel the infection. The symptoms are gone (not peeing blood) but I feel sick inside. I am starting to wonder if I am treating the right thing?? I've only had 2 anitbiotics, so maybe I just need one more day of rest. I am hoping this is right. I am sure my boss is NOT happy w/ me right now. Terry, glad the knee is on the mend. We don't realize how much we use them until they hurt, huh? Tracy, hope Macy is well soon! Jane, hope the light shines bright on you today:biggrin: Judy, hope you get on your bike a bit today. Suzie, wishing you strength to get through the next few days. Laura, hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Texas V's, I am so jealous about lunch on Friday! Take pix!!! I am enjoying my flowers more and more each day as they open up. This is great because it is the gift that keeps on giving! xooxoxoxox

Suzie, (((HUGS))) Laura, beautiful flowers for a beautiful mama! I am soooo loving my flowers too! Seriously...they smell the whole house. Terry, how is the knee? Tracy, sleep well! Jane, I would consider changing shops too! I would be hella pissed (your outfit sounded too cute). Have a nice night ya'll! xoxoxo

Hey Ladies~ I am feeling 100x better, but still weak and somewhat sickly. What a difference the meds made. The one pill (the one that makes your pee day-glow orange...Kat, you mentioned one as an OTC, this is PX) made me feel so much better. The pain is sooo much less, and the urgency is less urgent! Terry...hope the knee is better. I have a bad right knee, and I don't kneel in church even! Ice, advil, and rest if you can! Laura...((HUGS))! I asked on FB what a bili bed is...now I know. I have no pearls of wisdom only sending you and little man purple vibes and positive energy! You can call me and I'll sing him a song over the phone! If you call Judy for a song, he will be happier than if you call me...but I can be plan "B". Tracy...enjoy the Y. I wish we had one. We have one, but it is not like a real Y. I think it is only for school kids. I do know exercise is the best way to change things up, lift your spirits, and keep things even keel. Gotta run to work and make plans! This sucks...but must be done. The morning my mom died (like literally was dead in our home), I left her and drove to work to drop off plans. Then I came home and called 911. Have a great one! BTW...my flowers have smelled up the entire house. I LOVE THEM and promise to take pix in the next day or two. There are many blooms not yet opened...but will be soon! xooxoxox

Hi Girls! My flowers are so pretty and they smell up the house!!! I really can't thank you enough...They make me feel special everytime I see them! Kat, you nailed it on the head w/ so many things you said today:wink: This is my first UTI/kidney infection. She threatened to hospitalize me if I didn't take tomorrow off and drinkdrinkdrink and then drink some more. I literally laid on the couch all day. Sus brought home pizza. It was 10freakin2 here today, and I've been sweating all day! OK...have a nice night ladies! I love you!

I guess I've had an UTI for a short while...and now it is a full blown systemice infection that has moved into the kidneys! I went to urgent care and had to pee (no surprise) so they gave me a cup. I came out w/ this bright red GATORADE sample and everyone yelled, "Woo...you need to get her into a room...OMG...you must really feel sick...how long has this been like this???" I burst into tears because the pain and by now I am feeling infection running through my legs, back etc. I am home now w/ 2 antibiotics, pain meds, something specific for UTI pain. AND THEN THE DOOR BELL RINGS! I GOT THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS FROM MY DEAREST VIOLETS! Thank you all sooo much...they are spectacular. I promise to take a pic later (yet haven't figured out how to resize the pix yet). THEY MADE MY DAY!! My brother was here and said, I should get you a gift huh? LOL...I reminded him he can get me one in May! OK...I need to lay down. I am not working today or tomorrow, perhaps Thursday too! No gym for a week! I can't believe I was at the gym this am at 5am!!! I have gotten progressively sicker since this morning! xooxoxoxoxoxox THANKS AGAIN GIRLS! YOU GUYS MEAN THE WORLD TO ME! XOXO

Hey Girls~ Jane...you stay strong. I don't know what pill you need to split, but you can split a capsule, you will lose a bit, but you just put butter or marg. in the open end of the cap to keep the med inside (one of the trix I learned from grandpa and mom). Well I had to take the day off. Last night, I had a bad sharp pain in my lower side. I thought it was gas (still could've been). I took some GasX and went to bed. Well I slept sooo poorly...kept peeing all night long. I had these odd sharp pains in my lower tummy (again, I thought it was gas). Again, I pee'd all night. So I wake up and get ready for the gym. I am SSOOOO HOT inside...felt very weird. I went pee again...but didn't pay attention. So I am 3 min into my workout on the bike this am...and I have to pee again. Well, I get off the bike, and go...and I am BLEEDING w. the pee!!:crying: I had that procedure last year, so I should not be having a period (although you could), but it is more from my pee...not the vjj. I don't know if I am making any sense. I am having very sharp pains in my lower tummy...and have to pee...again. I am pretty sure I have some bladder infection...but the blood is what I am not happy about. Sooo...I gotta run into work and make plans...after I pee again. I called the doc and hopefully I can get in today. I'll keep ya'll updated!

Chin up Michelle! I agree...we love you! It was hot as hell today here...102! Melted melted! xoxo

Good for you Michelle! Proud of you for standing your ground w/ them!

Good luck Michelle~ If shit is gonna hit the fan...OWN IT...apologize, and move on. Just dont be one of those, "I didn't know/do it/ blahblahblah". It is always better to ask for forgiveness than permission! xoxoxo

Hey Girls~ Well back to life today:w00t:...quick spring break! Next year I wanna go to Sedona for sure. Oh well...I did get a lot done over the break! 39 more days of school! Se Si Puede! We start state testing next week which is a big pain...but unavoidable. I have the kids ALL MORNING and they can not take a break during the testing 2 hour block. That is the hard part. But after a few weeks, testing is over and then WE ALL COUNT DOWN! I didn't work out this morning...need to get in super early. I need to prep and my friend decided to leave her husband for her girlfriend (yes you read it right...I guess lesbianism is contagious) and we need to dish. I am going w/ her to look at a condo after school. Have a great day peeps! I'll log in from work. xoxoxox

Morning Chickys~ We rode the Funky Train yesterday! Never got out of our PJ's! Although I had a day like this on Thursday...it is far more fun w/ Sus being home! Today is grocery shopping, cleaning the back yard, grading papers, Sus is already doing laundry, and then she has a game at 2pm. It is 95 today...should be a hot game! Double header too! I AM COMPLETELY FINISHED W/ MY REVISIONS! Sent them in yesterday. I should be ok, perhaps on sentence or two to tweak...but I covered all the revisions discussed. So I am cautiously saying I AM DONE...It is a complete shock to me NOT to have homework. Still not sinking in. I started reading a novel, American Wife, yesterday. Anywho, it is all surreal!

Morning Vilolets~ Laura...OMG...what a story! My mouth was open while I was reading it. I can't believe all that. But what a LOVELY finished project. There is one pix in the hospital website pix that I just love! (I loved them all...but one w/ his little mouth open is too cute). I love him already! We are continuing on our reunion weekend! Not sure what the weekend holds for us, perhaps a drive up to Idylwild for lunch! It is going to be 90 here today! Supposed to be 100 on Tuesday! WOW! Not really sure what we are doing today! Keep the pix coming...

HaHa...you should know better than most...roomie!

SUSIE~ I GOT IT...AND I LOVE IT! THANKS SO MUCH! I didn't check my P.O. box all week...but just got it! Thanks again!! xoxoxoxo

Morning Chicas~ Laura...he is sooo beautiful! You did great! Can't wait to hear about the C section. Enjoy every moment sweetie! Your life just got SOOOO much better! Went to gym, getting a pedi later, and then Sus is coming home!!! I've missed her and we are planning a little afternoon delight:w00t: thats right, I said it! After my defense, my committee member, a closetted lesbian, said that I might want to change my acknowledgements and not identify my "partner" in case my dissertation is pulled and reviewed for job interviews. I said, "no...I AM GOING TO LET MY FREAK FLAG FLY!" I have been laughing for 2 days about it. Can't believe I said that...but I did. I also said, "I will never hide who I am and if it is a problem for someone, I wouldn't want to work in that organization either." I mean really, I don't wear a badge that I am a lesbian, nor does it come up in many conversations...but it will never be a secret. For my 6th graders, they think I have a boyfriend in the Army who lives in Ohio; and a roommate, Susanne. It is different w/ students. My grad students only know that I live w/ my "better half" and that is exactly what I say. I don't feel it is relevant in my classes, but if anyone every asked, I would own it! Anyway...letting my freak flag fly! Off to clean up. Can't believe how sloppy I am w/o Susanne cleaning up after me all the time! xooxoxoxoxoxox

Finally the Man of the Hour showed up! Can't wait to go!!! woohoo!

he's here!! Woohoo... c sect...everyone healthy!

ITS A BOY! 7.5# aT 7:51PM

I say; 8.5lbs @ 5pm (pst)...I think that is 8pm her time.

I am sad Rock of Love is over! That is the level of the thought for the day! Did WE have a baby??? Love youoxoxox

Morning Girls~ Went out and had a very fun night last night! We went to DINKS for drinks! I had 1 beer...YUCK! Forgot why I quit drinking beer. After 1 I had to belch and pee and felt like I'd just eaten Turkey Dinner. So I switched over to a margie and enjoyed a HUGE shot of Patron tequila which took me about 4 times to drink it! We had a great time...then went to get fish tacos at the best fish place in town! I ended up w/ Rob and Charles and my friend Joanie at the taco place!!! Anywho...up at 6:30 for a day of PJ's...some revisions...and I LOVE FREAKIN LUCY! Waiting patiently for Carson to make his debut! I remember when they induced my sil. They brok her water and it was like a flood! Seriously! I was like, "wth?" OK...bbl! thanks again for all your love and support ladies! woohoo! Man, a doctor and a baby in one week! We've had quite a week, eh? xooxxoox

WE ARE HAVING A BABY TOMORROW!!! OMG... That is sooo great I can't wait! Don't forget to text me someone! Violets~ words can not express what you all have done for me the past week (hell since the beginning!). I am truly blessed to have my Wonderful Violets in my corner! Thank you ladies for everything...I love you all:tt1: Off to get my drink on...don't wait up for me! LOL, who am I kidding...I've been up since 4am and slept like shit until then! 3 drinks and I'll be out! oxxoxo TRAVEL SAFELY CARSON! WE LOVE YOU LAURA!

hey gang...posting from phone..I think haydee got us kicked out of breakfast! Terry..I LOVE THAT PIC OF HERO...MADE MY DAY! I wish it were over...alone in hotelroom sucks, especialy when I am supposed to be reading. check in later! xoxo

Morning Ladies~ Thank you for all your words of encouragement! I am so glad I have my violets, and all the other blessings in my life! I will text Tracy Wed afternoon, if you don't mind throwing up a quick post! If you don't hear from me...I didn't pass and am crying and drowning my sorrows in many margies! I slept like shit, had bad dreams and woke at 5:30 and hit the gym. Hard cardio and lifted weights and I feel soooo much better! Isn't that amazing. I woke up VERY STRESSED and left the gym focused and feeling like things were managable. Because I am going out of town now, I need to bring everything w/ me...makeup, earrings, etc. So, instead of being all frazzled...I made a list and feel in control! Pretty cool huh? OK...everyone have a wonderful couple of days. I will try to pop on from the hotel room on my phone. Sometimes it works...sometimes it doesn't. I love you all! Thanks for standing behind me! It is funny, my violet tattoo is on my back...like you are all really behind me! oxxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
