Typical + A Favor or Two

It's so typical of me to say I want to make some progress on work, then something come up. NYEBoy and I went to Waffle House Friday night because I was hungry and it was pretty late. A few hours later, my stomach started hurting. I tried laying down to see if I could get some sleep, but soon after that I started feeling the need to throw up. Although I've spent the last few months feeling nauseous I usually only feel that way. Sometimes I'll dry-heave, especially in the mornings, but rarely do I ever actually upchuck.

Friday night into Saturday morning was totally one of those OMGI'veGOTToUpchuckNOW kind of nauseous moments. I tweeted about it. I paced the floor. I stared at the toilet. I looked in the mirror. I eyed the trash can. When the sun started coming up, I watched the sunset. All of this time, I tried convincing myself NOT to upchuck. I knew if I actually did it, I would probably feel better, but the thought of doing it just made my knees weak. I didn't want to. Don't maaaaake me. Please?

I finally decided to just do it. Afterwards, I still felt like shit. WTH? Then, I decided to try to get a nap. I had been up for 24 hours but I didn't want to go to sleep because I knew I'd be up all night. I knew I couldn't lay down with the nausea this bad, so I propped up two of our folding chairs. I slept upright for about three hours. When I woke up, I still felt bad. A longer sleep seemed to have done it. I woke up Sunday feeling a lot better. I even ate most of my dinner, which I rarely do even on my good days.

I need two favors.

First up, I need carpet cleaner suggestions. I'd like to look into a good carpet cleaner over the next few weeks.

Also, Friday afternoon we got K's paperwork in the mail to get her breast ultrasound done. The lady at the doctors office that was helping us with the paperwork doesn't work on Friday, so we had to wait until this morning to go. They have a waiting list anywhere from a few weeks to a few months long. Her breast is still hurting even with the meds and lack of caffiene in her diet. I'm nervous. Her other test results will be discussed at her follow up appointment this week. Please pray we can get her seen soon and the results of all of these tests come back normal.
