skittles and pie

Well....the past couple of days have been kinda crappy.  Tuesday morning I woke up with some cramping in my tummy.  I tried not to think too much of it since 'the books' talk about abdominal cramping as your belly grows but after a few hours of no relief I got worried and called my doctor.  Which by the way, my new doctor is such a blessing. I was originally seeing a doctor here locally who by my 10th week of pregnancy had me leaving his office in tears.  If there's one thing I have to say about the medical field it's this- IF YOU HAVE NO BEDSIDE MANNER, I DON'T CARE WHAT YOUR DEGREE OF EDUCATION IS.  Well, back to my original story....
I called my new doctor and he recommended that I go to the Emergency room here in Greenwood since I was in pain and not up to making the drive to West Point (where my new doctor's clinic is).  I absolutely HATE going to the hospital as it is but being by myself (until my boyfriends sweet mom came) while being poked and proded with needles and wires was a nightmare...on top of the 'needle nightmare' guess who the on call doctor was... MY OLD DOCTOR. had i done something wrong to deserve such crappy karma? needless to say I only had to see him once the entire 12 hours I spent in the ER and was blessed to have very sweet nurses. I was also blessed to have Casey's mom come sit with me until my mom got there and then my incredibly sweet Casey came after work and showed up with flowers and snacks and stayed with me and took care of me until today. I could not ask for a more wonderful boyfriend :). Charlie and I both are fine,ends up i just had bad UTI and they put me on some antibiotics. The only thing that sucks is that the antibiotics make me super nauseas but I only have to take them for a week.

*side note*-as i sit upright in my cozy bed, laptop in lap, tv on lifetime, I glance over at my bedside table to see the following items glaring at me with mockery....
1.a ziplock bag full of skittles
and...
2.an empty plate where a giant piece of my moms chocolate pie had been

so what if neither are nutritionally sustainable to my health? they're both DELICIOUS and I wont deny myself a few treats here and there :)

I also notice that I'm watching a re-run of Reba that I've watched 500 million times...and still love.  Same as with the re-runs of Desperate housewives, wife-swap, grey's anatomy, will and grace....Ive seen. THEM. ALL. but theyre still good...anyone else with me on this one?

*Update on Nursery-
I'm hoping to get the nursery painted before the end of this month...I'm wanting to paint it a very soft soft soft baby pink and from ceiling to floor either behind her crib or behind the daybed going in her room I want to paint a wall mural.  I've done one free-handed before but have found a stencil on poshtots.com that I want to kinda go by...

here is a picture of the stencil I found on Poshtots.com
I want to recreate my own free-handed in white.

Anyways, Much love from Charlie and I....When I get to feeling better I'll post something a little more interesting.
