I took a night off

January 20th, 2010 -- Posted in Health, Work | No Comments »

Normally I work every Tuesday night. But this week I offered my shift to another girl who didn’t have a lot of hours this week and took the night off. It was a good thing that I did this actually. Yesterday I ended up with the worst headache that I’ve had in a long time and I really don’t think I would have been able to work anyway. But after a great night’s sleep, I’m back to 100% today. I have to go back to work tomorrow, but I think after another good night’s sleep tonight I will be ready for that shift. But it was still nice to take the night off even if I wasn’t feeling the best.

Doctor’s appointment

January 14th, 2010 -- Posted in Family, Health | No Comments »

Every five years my husband has to have a complete physical to renew his class 1 driver’s licence. Well, the time has come. Actually this time I’m glad he has to go. He hasn’t been feeling good lately and maybe while he’s having his physical, the doctor may discover what’s wrong with him. Who knows, maybe he needs some colon cleansing. I really don’t know what is going on with him but, since he has to go anyway maybe his doctor may be able to help him. He’s not happy that he has to go, but I am!

Still not sleeping

January 13th, 2010 -- Posted in Health | No Comments »

So it’s been quite a few days since I’ve gotten a good night’s sleep and I’m really getting tired of this. It has gotten to the point where all the best under eye cream on the market couldn’t help these bags under my eyes. I think I need to break down and make a doctor’s appointment to find out what could possibly be going on. Normally I wouldn’t even think about taking a sleeping aid, but this is starting to get a little ridiculous. I think I may give it a couple of more days, and if sleep still alludes me, I will have to make that doctor’s appointment. I’m so tired of being tired ALL the time.

So…. tired.

January 11th, 2010 -- Posted in Health | No Comments »

I really don’t know what is wrong with me lately. Lately I haven’t been getting a good night’s sleep and it’s finally starting to catch up with me. I have so much work that needs to be done around this house, but really don’t have the energy to do any of it. For the past three nights I have only gotten about 16 hours sleep in total and it’s really starting to drive me crazy. I don’t normally have insomnia, but this is getting a little ridiculous. Last night I ended up getting up about four in the morning and just surfing the net and looking up random things like richard willich. I don’t know why, just something to do I suppose. So I guess today will be another day of not getting much done as I really do need to go for a nap.

So…. tired

December 7th, 2009 -- Posted in Health | No Comments »

I’m not really sure what’s going on with me these days. For the past several days I haven’t been able to sleep and now have dark eye circles around my eyes. I haven’t gotten more than four hours sleep each night and I think it’s finally starting to catch up to me. If this keeps up for much longer, I’m really going to have to go visit my doctor. But for today, I plan on finishing up my computer work and then I’m going to have a nap. Hopefully I’ll be able to sleep then and some of these dark circles will go away.

Gaining weight

November 9th, 2009 -- Posted in Health | No Comments »

About a month ago I went to my family doctor and he was seriously displeased with me. I had lost a ton of weight and at that time only weighed 88 lbs. Well, that’s not healthy. He even asked me if I was taking any kind of fat burners to get this weight off. Of course I answered no and told him I was just losing the weight. So he informed me that if I lost any more he was going to put me in the hospital to build me up. Well, I’m happy to report that I’ve gained 2 lbs. Yes, that doesn’t sound like a lot of weight. But when you weigh as little as I do, 2 lbs is a milestone. Hopefully I will be able to keep up this trend and not have to be admitted to hospital.

So far so good

October 1st, 2009 -- Posted in Health | No Comments »

Yesterday I spent the entire day suffering with a headache. I took some pain relievers but that didn’t help and I even laid down for about an hour and a half but that didn’t help either. The only way that I was able to get away from this headache was by going to bed really early. When I woke up this morning the headache was gone. But I can’t start to feel it coming on once again. So in a very short time I think I’m going to get off the computer and see if I can stop this thing before it ever starts.

Yearly checkup

September 17th, 2009 -- Posted in Health | No Comments »

Although my husband never uses his class one driver’s license, once a year he has to go in for a complete physical so that he can renew this specialized licence. And once again, it’s time for his physical. I make the appointment for him and then he cancels it and I make a new one and he cancels it…. and so on. Well you get the point now don’t you. He really doesn’t mind going except for one thing. He hates to have the mandatory colon cleanse that goes with it. If it wasn’t for this procedure, he probably wouldn’t cancel the appointments so much. But time is running out and soon he is going to have to suck it up and go to the doctor.

Trimming down

August 24th, 2009 -- Posted in Family, Health | No Comments »

My husband has decided that he needs to buy weight loss pills. Last week he noticed that he has put on some serious weight this summer and he is in the frame of mind now that he wants to lose it. He weighs in at over 230 lbs and this does not impress him. His access weight gain doesn’t bother me, but it does bother him so he is going to do something about it. I have tried talking to him and telling him to see his family doctor before taking anything, but he has got it in his head that he needs to start this now. Hopefully he doesn’t go overboard and hopefully I can talk him into going to his family doctor first.

Ten going on sixteen

July 22nd, 2009 -- Posted in Health, Kids | No Comments »

My daughter is so funny! She is like a miniature drama queen. Everything in life seems to bother her these days. And I’m pretty sure that this trend is only going to get worse. Last night she was asking me what type of diet pill I thought was the best weight loss supplements in the market these days. Well I was a little alarmed at this question. After all she’s only 10 and is more underweight than over weight. But thankfully, she was only asking this question because she has seen a lot of commercials on TV lately about diet pills. So I guess we still get a few more years yet, before she thinks she needs to go on a diet.
