My little Gracie bug has had a horrible cold for about 2 weeks now and it has just gotten worse, and worse. We never take her in public and she spends her life in the house here with me, so I don't know how she got it. I have been so worried she was going to get RSV, but she hasn't really been running a fever. Yesterday right after I fed her she started coughing and threw up everything and that was the last straw for me, so we rushed her over to Dr. Brown who thinks that she has a horrible viral infection and possibly bronchitis. I was so relieved to know she didn't have RSV and didn't have to have any horrible tests. I have the humidifier going in her room, she has vicks vapor rub on her chest 24/7. She hates the saline nose drops, but they seem to be helping a little bit. I just hate her to be sick! I hate that I can't make her better. She manages to smile through it all though. Her hair has been so hilarious lately because it is growing so fast and it stands straight up in the back. I will have to take a picture and post it.
I went to Dr. Kirkman on Monday for a follow up and he wants lots of blood tests done this Friday, my favorite thing...so I will keep everyone updated. I am so sick of gaining weight and he thinks it might be a thyroid issue, so we will soon see. I just want to be down to my pre-pregancy weight. Is that too much to ask for? When I am this fat I feel so terrible about myself and life, you know? I need a new hairdo, I just need to do something with this body and I know if I could drop 20 pounds I would feel fabulous!!!! Enough about me. I hope this blog finds you all happy and healthy! Have a super day and know that you are loved and thought of often. I check each of your blogs almost daily. I love being updated on everyone! I just don't know where the time goes! To my cute Brianne, who has to have surgery tomorrow with Finlayson on her hand, you are in my thoughts and prayers and to Mandy who had her reconstructive surgery yesterday, you too are in my thoughts and prayers! I love you!

Happy Half Bday to Me!!!!
Tuesday, February 19, 2008
Today is my half birthday! Exciting huh! I wish it meant I was going back down the age ladder and not up! I just got back from walking the hounds and it is so beautiful out there. Just muddy though. I have managed to get shin splints which are just lovely. I also manage to get rocks in my shoes every time we walk since we live on a dirt road but I have to keep telling myself that they might hurt, but I am glad that I can still feel the rocks in my shoes since I am losing feeling in my feet due to diabetes. I haven't posted anything in weeks and I feel terrible, but I have been so busy studying! I started the medical transcription classes back up and can't remember anything from the stroke so I am having to start over from page one which is frusturating, but I am halfway through course 2 which is good. There is a total of 5 courses before I graduate and I can't wait until I am there!
Gracie is cuter than ever! Luke gave me a digital picture frame for Vday and I am loving it. I could sit and watch it all day. My baby girl is so photogenic and so are my hounds. I just love them all so much! Gracie is learning to love bath time. She loves to have her picture taken. I am going to just post a bunch of pics. One is the cake I made Luke for VDay. It was one of those red velvet cakes which was quite good. Then I will post a pic of our neighbor in his tractor bailing us out of our driveway and from drifts from the snow storms we keep getting out here. The snow drifts we get are insane. I hope all of you are happy and healthy and know that you are loved!
