Headache-3 Nichole-0 if anyone was wondering seriously…

I haven’t done much today..honestly I did so good with cleaning out closets (well, cleaning up the closets) Last week…plus I’m pretty caught up online (except commenting, i know i know..)

My mom had thought she was going ot have to have gallbladder surgery.. CVS minute clinc told her yesterday to go to ER and be admitted. With the way her insurance is, she couldn’t just go on her own, she has to go to reg. family dr. well, they were also telling her her gallbladder had went acute..

When she went for an ultrasound and more bloodwork this morning they are now thinking her thyroid is majorly out of whack…they have her on some meds and such so hopefully the will take effect soon for her! She’s queezy and can’t eat and on and on

I swear with everything in me I think i’m pregnant, but I have taken 2 pregnancy tests and apparently they don’t agree I don’t ever remember being this moody and stuff in my life.. I guess time will tell…

I still haven’t got to go to the store..and I am so sick of like everything under the sun food wise! ughers!

I have a craving for white rice and brown gravy, and i’m expecting some money via paypal…if it comes through i’m gonna go have some tonight!

well i’m out. gonna take a shower and chill before david gets home. I am not sure if he is off at 3 or 330 today..they have been switching it up here the last few days..sometimes he goes in at 7 and sometimes 730 as well..

catch ya latter

So it is day #2 of the headache that doesn’t want to go away It really really sucks because I can see spots, my ear kinda hurts, and i’m queezy too! seriously? I have about had it!

Not much for me to get done online or off but still.. if I want to spend a day in bed, i’d like it to be because I WANT to, not that I feel like I HAVE to you know?

I am thinking about taking a really nice bubble bath and seeing how that works out…If anyone has any advice on ways to get rid of a headache please pass it along to me! I would appreciate it. For some reason advil is NOT working…

I am thinking about going back to not drinking soda again. It is such an annoying habit to break, and I was doing so good! I am pretty much only drinking sprite, but still.. meh!

Well i’m out for now.. gonna vacuum the rug (oh boy, NOISE!!) and see what else I can get into (or not)

You might not be able to tell, but I absolutely adore writing. I might get an occassional writers block, but in general it is something I like to do.

A good place to write and get “paid” for what you write is a part of EdenFantasys network of awesome sites, called Eden Cafe. I have wrote a few pieces for them including an article on body image, a couple of posts abut me back in the day, and one about being thankful.

I haven’t wrote in a while, but I plan to maybe get started with it again in the near future. I know that since I have been “away” so to speak they even have a option to make short videos!

If you can tell where i’m going with this, it is that you can basically write about anything you want, and get a giftcard for it! You don’t have to write about sex by any means! It is also a really good place to go read things when you might not have anything else to do !

They however do not accept actual reviews of sex toys, because of course there is the review program/ ambassador program for those sorts of things!

Their site is very clean and easy to navigate, and I think it’s a great place to interact with others!

For more info on writing for Eden Cafe, Check out their site! If you want to read my submissions check out the nifty author feature on the sidebar and look for Nichole…:)

I was provided a giftcard from edenfantasys in exchange for my thoughts ideas and opinions.

Well my headache has decided to keep on sticking with me! MEH!!!

Right now i’m waiting for david to get home. We are going to have my famous “The Soup” and well it is a perfect day for it, with this cold nasty wet weather we are having! I can’t say I wouldn’t mind eating some arby’s or something like that but.. yeah..every now and then I guess I should make stuff at home lol.

I need to get mom to come up and take me to the store ASAP. I do not even KNOW the last time we went to the store..I know it was during a super double or triple at harris teeter and it was a long time ago….I am low on about everything you can imagine! Meats, Snacks..Canned goods.. It would probably be easier to tell you what i have, instead of what I need!

Sam scratched david in the face this morning, and I hope it has gotten better since then. I didn’t see it, I just knew it happened. I guess thats what happens when you roughhouse with a scrappy cat!

I don’t have ANY plans for this evening…basically cuddling up on the couch watching tv.. might take a bubble bath.. sounds good to me!

I just wanted to write a few lines while I had a second..catch ya later gators

I have written before about the only thing I can play as far as an instrument, is a little bit of recorder and tiny bit of keyboard/piano. Think hot cross buns, and mary had a little lamb if you will, lol Actually, the sad thing is there for awhile I sort of knew some christmas songs on the recorder, because I took an elementary education music class, and we went to a hospital and did a christmas concert! That was so fun!

Music doesn’t seem to run in my family, but I can remember that my dad used to play the guitar when I was a little girl a little bit. I never had the knack to learn guitar myself though. Heck, I cannot barely play the freaking guitar in guitar hero lol.

Oddly enough, even though david and I have been married for 5 years coming up in June we have never been on the same car insurance plan. I don’t know if it’s technically supposed to be that way, but his insurance company and mine both know that we are married and whatnot…

Anyways, My insurance is flipping astronomical even though I have never been in a wreck or gotten a ticket..and my car is a 1989 toyota camry… yeah…and I pay DOUBLE of what david pays. He’s on his mom’s insurance still, they have been in wrecks and both have tickets out the wazoo!

His mom just added his brother on, so things are probably about to get interesting. His mom barley makes their rent money..and now heres some more charges..other than the fact that she also has to start paying his parole too!

I figure david and I will end up having to hunt for insurance together. should be a blast! I guess we are lucky that we don’t have to look for something like an rv insurance quote!

So when you wake up with nausea and a headache, I don’t suppose there’s too much else that can go wrong with your day! I was hoping by the time I actually got up that it would be gone, but no such luck   Advil won’t even shake it I will prob be heading back to bed pretty soon.

The rainy weather we are having is not helping out either! that just makes me want to go back to bed even more! I have a few things online to do, including 2 posts that have to be done today..it just looks like they will be getting done this evening instead of early in the day like normal…

Weekend was weird because David worked on Friday..it had been so long since he worked on a friday!  We didn’t do anything on Saturday except go to walmart.. the weather was so rainy and icky!  Yesterday we went to my mom and dads for lunch..

We filed taxes yesterday as well. E-filed both federal and state this time around (my printer is out of ink, and we didn’t feel like fooling with buying any so we just went ahead and did it electronically) We are getting back a pretty good hunk of money, but I know it won’t last no time.. it never does…

David is wanting to go back to Tennessee..which is fine and dandy I suppose..but I don’t travel well as you all know …plus I wonder if we couldn’t find something more practical to spend money on? meh … I guess we’ll have to see…

I would write more but it’s advil and naptime for this gal..catch ya later gators.

David and I were having a random conversation on the way to my moms the other day about classes I have took and not liked over the years. To hear me talk you would think that I didn’t ever like a class I ever took lol. I guess it’s because I like to rant over the stupid ones instead of praising the good ones? I am not exactly sure! Is anyone else like this?

I can remember as far back as elementary school I always hated GYM (PE whatever you want to call it) and Math. I didn’t really hate PE so much back that far except when we got older and started doing stuff like softball and basketball. I never could get a ball through that blasted hoop!  I don’t even think an adjustable backboard or anything would have helped unskilled little shorty me!

Over the years I still hated Math and Gym (Thankfully after 9th grade I never had to take it again!)Even though I had to take Yoga later on and even an elementary pe teaching class they were not so bad.

Then I evolved and s tarted getting crazy weird teachers that really just spiced up my life..most of them came into play when I got to college.

Here are some of my top teacher/class stories

I had a crazy lady for folklore (would have been an awesome class if she would have TAUGHT instead of taking attendance and repeating herself EVERY DAY)

A geology teacher who asured me I had ALMOST an A  when in fact I had a D!

an art appreciation teacher who was alright, but used to send me to make copies of the tests with the answer keys included in the stacks of paper! also, i asked him one time how many days I missed and he said 1! I had probably missed 6+ lol

an health teacher with a bad attitude. well, it wasn’t my fault I had taken the exact class before and it wouldn’t transfer. He had this thing for no snacks in his class. I had been in classes since 8 a/m it was at 3 in the afternoon. I brought chick fil a to class EVERY day and after I told him i was eating from the food groups the first time he never said nothing to me ever again. This was one of my favorite classes to get someone to come pick me up so I could leave early!

drunk business math dude. No seriously he came to class drunk a lot lol he used to stumble and stuff. Another one of those classes I used to sneak out of early, and i’m sure he didn’t know!

mean butt elementary pe teacher:class was at 8 a/m. one morning rebecca (best friend at the time) get off the bus,i’m on the phone with my boyfriend at the time, Tim. It’s about 7:50ish..we walk in and the teacher tells us we are LATE. I said to tim, This dumbass says i’m late what time is it? tim tells me 7:57. Teacher wasn’t going to count me for the day and tim told me to leave. which i would have but we were reviewing for the first test.

Drama teacher who made me cry: this one I can’t remember the particulars of right off top of my head. I just know he said a whole bunch of stuff about how I was never going to amount to a good teacher or something like that. I know I started wailing my eyes out and tim was picking me up that day from class, and when I was in the bathroom tim had a TALK with him and well, he never picked on me again!

there are more ..but those are some of my favorites!I am serious when I tell you that I used to take coloring books/crayons and markers to most of these classes lol. Surprisingly enough I always made high b’s and a’s and an occassional C for the most part. Don’t ask me how?

When you lay awake most of the night your mind wonders to places it probably shouldn’t. Or at least mine does . I think of crazyt hings that really don’t have anything to do with anything, things I could be doing if it were a more decent hour and on and on. It sucks. Lately I have been doing better with going to sleep, but last night david went to bed instead of giving me a massage and well..I had hours of fun just staring at the walls.

I was almost asleep at one point when I swear I heard david’s phone bing..which he says it didn’t..mine was on silent so apparently I am starting to hear phantom iphone bings? Oy! I finally went to sleep and don’t you just know I woke up around 4 and haven’t been back to sleep!

I got a TON accomplished yesterday for some reason. I have NO CLUE how. I managed to totally get my closet cleaned UP. Granted things may need cleaned out and reorganized but..at least you can see my floor for the  first time in MONTHS!! I also managed to clean my dresser up on top a bit, change sheets, wash & dry several loads of clothes, clean in the bathroom a bit, take trash up to the road,make dinner, shave and even clean a little bit in my closet under the stairs!

Today I am going to try to chill for the most part and hopefully at some point take a nap. the only thing I really need to do is wash another load of clothes/wash dishes/clean sam’s box and vacuum the living room rug.

We were planning to go eat at the bar (seriously …only eat..they have AWESOME home cooked type food) but david’s check has yet to go in, so we are in a pickle like heck as usual. seriously I guess if i didn’t blog about money issues, sleeping issues and cleaning well..it wouldn’t be me would it ? lol.

more later maybe.
