stir crazy

Yesterday, I had laproscopic surgery. I was diagnosed with stage 1-2 endometriosis. I have some pictures, and may add them to the blog. My sister is a little bitter about it because I recovered well, and was walking around Walgreens on my way home, and was able to eat. I also remember the conversation I had with the dr. afterwards. I then also unloaded/loaded my parents dishwasher.

This morning I woke up in pain. However, it just feels stiff, like I've done a ton of sit-ups. I took a long shower waiting for my meds to kick in, and now I am stir crazy again, as the pain pills seem like crack. Only today, I can feel more pain. But I've got to do something, so we'll see... I'm trying not to do anything that requires too much (like blogging, except the spelling may be a little off, sorry!).

My biggest fear with this is that I got a shot of Lupron that will send me into menopause for the next 3 months!!! I also got some sort of menopause meds that are supposed to help me not become so crazy!! I'm not as worried about the moodiness as I am about maybe growing a beard, and the acne that supposedly will accompany it!

yesterday's highlight

When I went to the pre-op "physical" yesterday, I was measured at 5'9". HOORAY!!! It appears that I am still growing, and that I have grown 3 inches in two months, as I was measured at 5'6" in early December. And by the way, this is tall, not around...

new addition to blog list

I found another coupon blog!! Printable coupons has tons of, you guessed it, printable coupons!! This site is catogorized and has not only grocery, but clothing, restaurant, and many more types!! Enjoy!

hillbilly deluxe!!!

Just a little glance at the girls' mouth... can you see my grimace???

kids and parents professions...

Since the dental industry is my goal, the girl won't let me touch her teeth! She finally pulled the grossest loose one on Friday at school! But rest assured, there are several more lined up to take it's place. Yesterday, she was eating a piece of pizza, and the least loose tooth came out into the pizza. She thought she has swallowed it at first, but was happy to see it stuck in the cheese! I told her the tooth fairy doesn't pay for teeth that get swallowed, as I'm not hunting through poop to retrieve it, and she won't either. The girl now has one dangly, graying, barely hanging on tooth up top, with huge holes on either side. On the bottom, the loosest tooth can wiggle both front, back, right, and left! And she can feel her heart beeping in the bottom tooth. However, she won't allow me to touch it! Just please don't think I'm not doing anything about her teeth!!!!! I've tried bribery, begging, sitting on her, and threats (you're going to swallow those teeth, they are so loose!), but nothing can get her to let me help!!!!! As goes the theory with kids and parent's professions...

pie day!!!

Today is national pie day!! The girl tells me I'm to make a chocolate pie (french silk). I'm thinking I'm feeling lazy, so I may be going to the store and buy a pie. The boy wants his pie... white chocolate and cheesecake pudding pie. I'm feeling more of a cherry or apple with icecream... we'll see how the day plays out!

On another note, the girl FINALLY pulled the dead tooth! It was so loose, it was disgusting. It was so loose, it was dead. She has two other teeth that are begging to be pulled, but as is her stubborn ways, she is waiting for them to come out slowly. Fighting me as I wrestle her down to try and take them out, as the air she breathes out as she talks moves the teeth!

mmmmm...

Somehow, in my procrastinista ways, I missed McRib season at McDonalds! I know the boy was SUPER excited about it, but his dad took him to MCD's, as all weekend dads do, and so I never got around to getting one. That is until today!!! It was rib-on-bun day at school! And I was able to make it!! And they also had tater tots and a snickerdoodle!! The only thing that could have made it better was a tri-tater instead of the tots. I have had my fix, and am good to go until next fall, unless I forget how far one "rib" sandwich gets me, and go again later this month.

Eating with the girl, I realized how much her tooth needs to come out. She can't even eat anything soft with her front teeth! I wrestled her down earlier this month, but I just couldn't get it out. She has a standing bribe of 2 Dove nuggets (with the white ice cream) if she can pull it out at school, but she hasn't yet! That offer will most likely expire this weekend, as the PMS has kicked in, and my sanity has gone further out the window!
