GRRR....

As an adult DO NOT allow an ear ache go for a week. This can lead to BIG problems if you do. Let me go back. Last year in Sept. I got an ear ache. I just thought it was from the excessive swimming I was doing. Well it didnt hurt all day so I ignored it. A week later I couldnt even turn my head to the right on Friday night. So I went into the ER. Severe ear infection! WOW! Okay fast forward a few weeks. I am in the car outside my daughter's school and decide to clean out the car some. So I am cleaning out the car and all of a sudden I am dizzy. REALLY DIZZY! I was getting nauseaus and everything. School was finally over and I had to drive home this way. It was very scary. I just kept praying that we could get home safely. So I get home and toss my cookies and have to lay down. A few hours later I was still nauseaus but my head wasnt spinning. I thought it was food poisoning. It went away no problems.... Fast forward to New Years Eve. I am out in some area I have never been to pick up the girls from our ward after the dance. It hits again. I get home and again toss my cookies. Get to sleep and I am fine in the morning. Well sometime in Jan I read a book that was talking about positional vertigo. It sounded familiar. So I went and looked it up. Positional vertigo can start from an ear infection. Okay so what is it?? Positional vertigo is (from emedicine.com) small particles become dislodged within the inner ear and then bounce around when your head moves, triggering faulty signals that your head is still moving even after it stops. This sensation of movement or imbalance when you are not moving is called vertigo.

Anyways I said I am not going to go into the doctors because I havent had any spells. Well guess what. Last night after again having no clear cut reason for it it happened again. (I didnt toss my cookies for once YEAH!) I did learn though that you shouldnt try and listen to your IPOD when you are dizzy. Why? because it makes your head spin faster! So how do you save yourself from your snoring husband when you have vertigo AND you cant use your IPOD?? You die. I thought I was but eventually I fell asleep. I woke up again fine! GRRR this is just a pain in my butt!

Its late and I should be asleep...

but this cold has me all turned around. I run a fever now and then its gone only to reappear mid afternoon and be gone by dinner. GRRRR. I am so wiped out half the time. I feel fine then try and do stuff and feel like I am run over by a mack truck. Example I woke up friday feeling good...(first time since Tuesday) so I went and helped with the lil bits Easter egg hunt for her class... then I had to pick up a prescription, come home picked up hubby (who was home sick) we went and got soup and the Blindside on BluRay (SUCH AN AWESOME MOVIE!) Came home felt like I was going to fall over and had a low grade fever but it was time to pick up the littles. GRRR! So I went and picked them up and then had to go to the bank. Got three of the 4 kids their own savings account (go Mom!) and let them sign over their checks from grandmommy. Got subs from Jersey Mikes (YUM!) and went home and fell asleep. Haha. Sad but true was sound asleep by 8.

Today was a lot of sleeping still feel like crap but probably why I am not asleep now! Freezing one min burning up the next.

ANywho tomorrow is a new day. Night

Its been awhile...

I really suck at this, but I am going to be working on a project for the next year so I wonder it that will help me to keep up with this. I have decided to write about what I am reading. Its at a new blog though called My Joy/ My Bane. I will link it here in a bit but I think it will be cool and I will talk about it on that site.

Here my hubby finally came home and my kids have all been ecstatic to have him home. I was too. Its unbelievably hard to parent when you get used to someone being there and then BLAM they are gone for 2 months. So he got home a little over a month ago and I swear he brought something home with him because it seems as if for the entire month someone has been sick all of that time. He came home sick. I was just getting over something and the kids all got sick. Then I got sick... then he got sick and so on and so on. First though I have to say its now spring here and pollen is KILLING me. Seriously pollen and I do not mix any better than grass and I mix. I dont think I will be starting spring break with pneumonia though this year. YEAH! Just the joys of pollen and allergies.

I finished another class and I am in another class. I packed off all my friends over the past few weeks it seems like. It has been hard. My closest friend moved three hours away. She has been my closest friend for 5 yrs. (Military life you know?) Some friends who thought they would be here got a order shift from here to Japan so we sent them off too. And right around when Hubby left I sent off another friend to Texas. OUCH All me friends are leaving me!!

Its hard. The kids took it hard. I have cried a lot over the past few weeks myself. I still have a lot of friends but you know there are some friends you know you will have forever and you dont want to leave.

Anywho I have also been swept up on the geneology sites. My daughter had a project due and we went to town. Lots of information from my husbands side not so much from mine haha. I am a ghost I tell ya!

Anyways until later... maybe I will go into detail on here about my trials and joys with geneology.
