Going Private

I think after a year and some odd months, it is time to make this blog private. If you need to change your email, let me know.

It will commence privitization (sorry, no public option) November 1.

For the last few months, I have been gaining weight rapidly, my ankles and fingers swell, I have an upset stomach, heartburn, and I am exhausted and in such intense pain, that I can't even describe it. There are days I cannot even move, but I force myself up and around, because things need to get done. I woke up Thursday with a sty in my eye, too.

No, I am not pregnant, but something is wrong with me. I went to the doctor on Friday and talked to her about everything that is going on. She ordered a battery of blood tests for the various things she thinks might be. Because I have gained 40 pounds since my wedding, she put me on prescription prenatal vitamins, so that if I do get pregnant, I will have enough folic acid and my baby won't have spinal problems. Fun, huh? I have high blood pressure, so she wants to see what these tests come back with before she prescribes high blood pressure medicine.

I will hopefully be able to have my blood drawn tomorrow (Monday). I had eaten breakfast Friday morning and Dr. Faircloth wanted me to be fasting. I will let you know what I find out.

Idea for Christmas


I want to put together a calendar for Mom and Dad for Christmas. What I would need is a current family picture (Whether professional or just a current shot of everyone), and then just some current candid shots of your family. I am doing an 18-month calendar, so send your pictures. I will also put birthdays, anniversaries and any other info you guys want to include.

If you want a copy of your own it would be $13/calendar (50% off), so let me know and I will order one for whoever wants it. If you want to pitch in for Mom and Dad's calendar, you can pay whatever you feel comfortable contributing. If everyone contributes, it would only be about $5/family. If you have already figured out something else, that is fine, too. I just want your pictures to make this calendar great!
So, send your pictures to wecanallshare@hotmail.com as soon as possible. I want to have it put together before Thanksgiving.
