Hey Everyone..Long time no update! Last week I had a cold ALL WEEK. Yup I sure managed to catch Dav's cold! I am pretty much still getting over it at this point.. I still have a bad cough going on! I had a different variety of the cold EVERY DAY. Some days I had a sore throat, some days it was coughing, low headache.. just all kinda crazy stuff! I am happy that I have managed to fight it on off for the most part thankfully! This week is pretty ho hum for the most part.. I have been wanting to get into our storage thingy out on the patio but Dav won't move his freaking bike out of my way so I can get in there and I can't move it myself because I am sure something will get screwed up on it if I even breathe near it. I really need a few things out of there so he is just gonna have to move it for me at some point this weekend whether he likes it or not! Tuesday we decided to go to this special church service and basically Dav decided it last minute. We knew about it, and I had … [Read more...]
Nichole & David’s TN Adventure: Wilderness at the Smokies Review
A Little Bit of Background & Info Back in September David and I had the chance to get to finally get away and go on what I would call a REAL vacation! We haven't really been anywhere other than my Grandparents/a trip to the N.C. Mountains in FOREVER. Actually, I hadn't even been to those places in a while either! One of our favorite places to get to go is TN (David has a real obsession with wanting to live in TN one day). Anyways, we had been twice in the past and I decided to see how far my blogging could take us with getting some things for this trip. We had stayed at Wilderness at the smokies twice before and really enjoyed it, so they were first in my mind to see if they would be interested to work with me! Generally David and I have only went to Wilderness in the winter time (I am talking about SNOW ON THE GROUND the one time we went!) I was excited when I got a "Yes" response to being able to go for 2 nights in exchange for a review of my honest thoughts/opinions and an … [Read more...]
just a post :D
Hey Everyone! Well things have been pretty mellow in my world since I last wrote.. that is kind of why I haven't took the time to write lol. This past Saturday made 1 year since we got Marley(Well we actually adopted her 6 days before, but we couldn't bring her home until they could schedule her shots and surgery and whatnot) so that was sweet! We had her scheduled for a bath but it was SO SO SO dreary and cold outside ,plus David wasn't feeling well so .. I just rescheduled it for this weekend coming up! I had gotten up early saturday because I had to go pick up some chicken with my mom at 8 a/m! ... Did I mention how icky saturday was? and to be up that early? ew lol. After I got the chicken, worked it all up + my moms (around 80lbs) We had a quick "lunch" at her house and then we ended up going to minute clinic at CVS to see if David had strep or whatever. The rapid strep test came back as negative and I don't know about the one they sent off yet! He also got his ears … [Read more...]
quick rambles. pumpkin pie. and homemade wine.
This week has been better than last for sure! I hope it continues that way! I have been enjoying sitting in the lazy boy recliner , watching tons of t.v(seriously what did i do before ? lol) and even playing on my DSI a little bit. I don't know if I wrote it or not but last Saturday David upgraded my Ipod to a 32gb touch like I was wanting! I haven't managed to do much updating just yet, but I plan to maybe work on it some this weekend since it is David's volunteer week. Now that I wrote that I am pretty sure that I did write that this would be that project I had been trying to find lol. I think this might be David's last volunteer week. He was supposed to do it for 6 months .. but the guy that was over his weeks parking crew resigned and he has to deal with this other dude who drives him crazy so he is thinking about throwing in the towel too. Also, they were really ridiculous about what they were expecting through christmas with the volunteering. I know I probably won't make it … [Read more...]
night time patio blogging
Hey everyone! well this week really didn't get any better. I woke up to missed calls and texts from david about did i know why my dad left work around 10 a/m on Thursday morning.. I was like um no but I will find out lol. I called and find out my mom is at the DR office having one of these "spells" we call them that she has been having for a while. She has really bad nausea and dizziness among other things. We kind of had suspected that it was her gall bladder even though she had that checked before and that is how they found her thyroid problem I finally hear back a bit over an hour later and my dad says they think she is having what is known as a silent migraine(painless migraine). I was like what? lol. Apparently it is odd to have but you can have a migraine but not have the actual pain! She had 2 shots and they took several viles of blood. I ended up going over there and spending the rest of the day with her. She said she got scared because her vision basically totally went out … [Read more...]
Things get scary when you can’t breathe :(
Hey Everyone !! The last few days I have been having some major coughing fits but really hadn't thought much about them because I figure it was allergies/colds and I still know that is atleast part of the problem I got going on.. stick with me lol I don't know if you remember when David and I first moved I spent nearly 3 weeks or longer with these god awful hacking fits and not being able to get a deep breath. We chalked it up to the carpet ..maybe it had been treated with something before we moved in or whatever ...and thankfully I made it through.. lots of sitting on the patio/humidifier/etc. Sunday night i started having the feeling about not being able to get deep breaths but I just figured it was a quick passing thing and didn't really think more about it. We went to walmart and when I Came home i spent like an hour and a half on the phone with my grandma..started coughing some and still that lingering can't get a deep breath thing ..tried to take a shower but didn't … [Read more...]
