'Tis a New Week



^^ our super cute Halloween card this year.


IT'S A NEW WEEK, AND I'M FEELING MUCH BETTER!

Thanks for all your comments / words of encouragement / advice.

A high school and blogger friend Anna said I should do an update [who, by the way, recently announced her pregnancy....YIPEE! CONGRATS!]. I really do think it was just a combination of hormones and rainy weather. This week it was sunny. My period is over. Life is glorious. Tara was right, something about mom hormones. My period just isn't what it used to be when it comes to mood swings! LOL.

I survived the midterm with minimal tears [but lots of nights up until after midnight]. I am contemplating whether to take the next class this spring or not [to those who are wondering why I'd be taking an advanced math class right now, when mom brain is in overdrive and I am still sleep deprived, well I need 6 credit hours before 2014 for license renewal. I figured now is the best time since I'm off work].

To clear up the "social worker" and "hospitalization" story: the doctor definitely did not mention any of those words. I would have punched him in the face if he did. [ok I would not have]. It was my husband who said those things and I did want to punch him in the face. [and still do]. ;) We are planning on getting the blood tests and sweat test done so we can move on and the doctor can sleep easier. :)

Now on to other business. There are two mommies and two babies out there that really really really need our prayers right now. One is currently in the hosptial and the other is slated for open heart surgery on November 3rd. These kiddos are so lucky to have such strong mommies [I'm constantly in awe of them] but even I know they can use some extra prayers and hugs right now.

I'm so glad you're feeling better! I am sorry I didn't comment on the last post. I am just in the midst of my own impending unemployment funk and I just couldn't find the right words. But I was definitely thinking of you. Anyone who thinks being a stay-at-home mom is easy has no clue!

Glad your hormones have almost evened out - husband's face?! But really I'm glad your are feeling right side up. The Halloween card is adorable!

Glad you're doing better! I was relieved to hear that it wasn't the Dr. throwing around "social worker" and "hospitalization" - I was about to come down and kick some Ohio Dr. butt.

If you have the insurance coverage and it will make you sleep easier, get the tests. But he looks like a healthy thriving boy to me!
