Busy Day

Wow! I really got things done.

I DID pay the bills.

I DID work out at Curves...being careful to slow way, way down at the first hint of dizziness.

WE DID finish school.

I DID take a nap.

The Dr. did call back. I sort of KNEW that the receptionist should have asked more questions and worked me in sooner than the end of May...but I hate to make waves. Evidently, Dr. Laura has decided that I will be seen in April. She thinks I need care before the second trimester but isn't terribly alarmed with my symptoms. OK are you ready? THIS is what I'm to do...."take it easy", "don't drive if you feel this coming on", "rest"....since I've had 2 second warnings...this should be interesting. It could well be hormones, or anemia, or low blood sugar...I don't have other symptoms of high blood pressure so I don't think it's that. I am trying to be sure I eat every couple of hours. Isn't God funny? I've really been having trouble keeping up this eating style the last couple of weeks...but believe me it is easier that falling out of the shower. ::snort::

I sat in the van and read while Josiah took out a car on a test drive. It turns out it is owned by a past wing commander of the base.

Went with Josiah for group cap and gown photos. A mom there had just heard I was pregnant. What fun. I'm blessed not to have heard a lot of nasty comments yet. We have noted, when we lived in TX before, that people down here seem to be more accepting of big families. The further North and West we get on our moves, the more strange looks and nasty comments we get. ::snort::

Josiah and I dropped by the library and picked up more books for the next few weeks of school. I saw a few I wanted to pick up to read - but then I remembered my rather substantial spring reading thing list. LOL

All in all a good day.

Sis:

Glad you are going to get in this month to see the doctor.

Just finished reading for the day (New Int. version) and thot this scripture was great for TOBE #10... Ps. 139:14-16, especially v. 16.

This child is already being wrapped in so many prayers by so many folks! PTL!!

De'Etta,
Praying for you and your family. I am so excited for you all with the welcoming of your tenth! I had lots of dizziness with my first - the hormones (progesterone?) relaxing the joints and blood vessels and those sea bands really helped me.

Very productive day!

Glad you were able to get a sooner appointment.

So glad you can get in sooner rather than later. I tended to be a dizzy pregnant person, LOL. It was always low blood sugar because I am another one who forgets to eat. I hope yours is something as simple as that.
