Hippy Hippy Shake!

Ok, so it's not as exciting as that, but this is the second weekend i've played tennis where my hip has started hurting halfway thru. This weekend I was expecting it though and I took a ton of ibuprofen before I started playing. So it wasn't as bad this time. So that was good. and it's not hurting today like it still was this time last week!!

SO PISSED OFF!!!

Today, it's an "every other" weekend when I would normally take the kid to meet her mom for the weekend. Well, today her mom was in town and called Joe and asked if she could pick her up early from school. So he told her where it was so she could go. So she went, she was nearby. He tried to call the school to tell them that he was authorizing her to pick up Amanda today. We didn't put her mother as an authorized picker-upper since she has NEVER come to amanda's school for Anything, much less to pick her up. He called 3 times and no one answered. So he called Stacie back and she said she was in the office and they were getting her from class! They didn't ID her or anything!!! So a bit later, Joe called the office and asked the secretary why she would release her to just anyone. The secretary said that she would NEVER do that and that she recognized her because she's picked her up before!! NO ONE has EVER picked up that child from that school early before! ONE time i took her in late cuz she had a doctor's appointment. But that's it!! Then the secretary started ARGUING with him saying that he doesn't know what he's talking about, he doesn't know who is picking up his kid and she's come before to pick her up! WELL....even IF that were the case that she's picked her up before, then that STILL means that the VERY FIRST time she picked her up, she wasn't checked!!!! AAARRRGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, and then Joe asked to talk to the principal about it. He said that by the way she was talking to him, she didn't seem terribly concerned about the situation. She just said that, Well, she thought she recognized her. And that she'll make sure they ID better from now on. They should be ID'ing everyone in the first place!! From now on!! ARRGG!!! so then joe called stacie again about it and she said that when she picks her other 2 daughters up from day care 5 DAYS A WEEK, from the SAME PERSON, she is ID'D EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!

it's 20 til 5 but i think i'm gonna go home now. i've had it!

Why won't it go away??

For OVER three weeks now I have changed my eating habits quite a bit. I started keeping track of what I eat and the calories and fat and sugar and whatnot. Started eating more veggies during the day for snacks. More veggies with meals. Drinking more water too. Today was my third weigh in and I am the exact same weight as I started! The first 2 weeks I was 2 pounds less than my starting weight. Now I'm back to it. WTF??? It's crap like this that makes me think what the hell am I doing this for? I could go back to eating the way I was eating and maintaining....just like I am now apparently. Pisses me off.

Still sick

I don't know what the hell the deal is. I just can't seem to get over whatever I have. I was so tired yesterday, I went to sleep WAY early...just after 8! Slept all thru the night, up until 5ish this morning when I woke up and just ached all over! My legs, my back, my arms...just dying. And I was so uncomfortable I couldn't go back to sleep. I kinda dozed off here and there, but just couldn't fall totally asleep. I took some dayquil and mucinex this morning. So I don't feel as horrible as I did earlier...but still...not so great. It totally sucks man. This nose thing is bugging the crap out of me too. I have chorus tonight, so i'm probably going to go sit in the corner for it so i don't get my section sick. oooh or in front so i can hear the whole choir! I'll do that!

Apparently it is

I just called the dentist's office and asked them about the night guard situation. Apparently it's not supposed to stop the clenching, just the wear on the teeth from the clenching. And they can't separate the jaw any more because it being unnaturally separated can cause more jaw problems than ever before. So....my symptoms may be slightly diminished but they won't go away....sigh.... what a pain in my neck, literally!

Is it supposed to be like this?

I need to call my dentist. I got my night guard last wednesday. I've been wearing it every night (except for one when I passed out reading). I've still had a couple of headaches. When I first got it, I couldn't bite down on it cuz I gagged when i did. But after a couple of days I got used to it and I can bite down on it. And from what they told me, I'm not supposed to be able to. Or not with much force anyway. It was supposed to separate my teeth enough so that when I did clench down, i wouldn't be able to bite down with much force at all, which would alleviate the strain I'm feeling in my head and neck. So i have to call the dentist and ask about that issue. I have to get some more prescription toothpaste too, so I have to go anyway this week After I get paid.

Weekend

I had a pretty good weekend!

On Saturday, I stayed home while the hubby went to Moriarty to his friend's house to get some more tattoo work done. I've been going with him the previous 4 weeks and I decided to stay home this time so I could get some work done. And avoid the cat stench of their house. Holy crap, they have the raunchiest smelling house I have EVER had the misfortune to step in! When I go, I stay in the tattoo studio with them cuz he keeps the door closed so the animals don't go in there and the smell doesn't get in there either. I don't understand how people live like that!!! It's absolutely disgusting! So it was great staying home.

I did laundry and cleaned and vacuumed and dusted and mopped. Then I hear from hubby. He locked his keys in his truck. They were going to try to find someone to jimmie it open, but never did, so I had to take my key to him to unlock the truck. The kid was going to have a friend of hers over, so I waited til she came over and then we went. Got there, opened the truck, stayed for maybe 10 minutes then came back home. It's maybe 30 miles out there I think. Maybe more, I can never remember. So much for staying home and saving gas too!! Got back home and cleaned up some more and made dinner for the girls. I was on my feet all day long except for the drive. So by the time hubby came home and I was ready to go to bed, my back and feet hurt so bad. Went right to bed. don't you love how amazing your bed feels when you are so pooped and achey??

Sunday, just did one more load of laundry. I stayed in my PJs ALL DAY LONG!! It was GREAT!! bummed around the house....didn't even take a step outside! Joe even took amanda's friend home sunday evening. I did NOTHING! Waahahhahaa!!! I so needed that! It was awesome!
