Ok, I had forgotten how much this pregnancy nausea really sucks. It’s like being on a ship rocking back and forth so much that you’re seasick all the time. Ugh. I’m sure this is not interesting to anyone except me but let’s just call it therapy.
Things that make me nauseous:
-Being cold
-Being too [...]

Woe is me
29Oct05Seven Weeks
26Oct05I have not yet posted about the most pressing thing that has been on my
mind lately but here it is: I’m about seven weeks pregnant. It’s very
exciting for us and we are so happy. But mostly right now I’m dealing
with the fun and glamour of the first trimester which includes such
lovely things as bloating, gas, [...]
Looking Back
20Oct05As I look forward to making the switch to an insulin pump, hopefully within the next month, I thought it would be worth looking back on my journey thus far as a diabetic. I feel like this upcoming change is the most significant improvement in my diabetic care that I have been able to make [...]
The email virus
17Oct05This week I received the same email forward twice warning me that some tampon manufacturers are putting asbestos in their products so that women will bleed more and, therefore, use more tampons. Come on people! Learn to check out these ridiculous things before you pass them on. Where did we get the [...]
Would You Rather…
13Oct05Sing country songs buck naked to the PTA or come across your “art” photos on a porn site?
-I’d have to say the porn site, simply because the people who would see it would probably not be people I know, and even if I did know them, they’d likely not want to [...]
I recently read a post by Waiterrant
that was very thoughtfully written. It was about how we as humans
don’t place equal value on human lives. We consider some people
more “valuable” than others and are willing to go the extra mile to
show compassion to some people and not those who are less
“desirable”. It was thought provoking and [...]
Forces of Darkness
10Oct05Have you ever walked under a streetlight and had it go out? Many people I’ve talked to have never had this happen to them even once. It happens to me at least once a week. Last night my husband and I went for a walk and in that short walk one light that [...]
Medical Grab Bag
08Oct05It’s a beautiful, sunny afternoon and my daughter is sleeping. What better way to spend this time than indulging in a little narcissism? So here is a medical/surgical meme I picked up somewhere.
1. If you had a choice, would you be circumsized or not? Why or why not? (ladies, pretend to be men [...]
Another Goodbye
07Oct05Last night my husband’s grandfather passed away. I consider him my grandpa, too, because my last grandfather died when I was 14 and when I became part of my husband’s family Grandpa MacKinnon was one of the most welcoming and friendly people of the whole bunch. He never seemed to be in a [...]
Double Word Association
06Oct05Here’s an interesting and completely useless exercise. You put the word you associate with the first word in the list. Then you take your words and use them as a second list and do the whole thing over again. What’s the point? I have absolutely no idea.
Mel Gibson - Braveheart
Pot belly - Pig
Pork [...]
