Birthday
Taylor is turning two in about a week. We are going to throw her a birthday party with a Mickey Mouse theme. I’ve made my own invitations and really need to take a picture of them, because they are really adorable. Not a typical themed invitation but I love it. Happy Birthday!
Also, we are going to buy a new truck. Jamie was in a car accident where someone rear ended him. He has some neck problems/aches but otherwise he is fine, but it totaled our little Honda Civic that we’ve had since before we got together. Its rather sad to think its gone lol but we are going to use the money we got from it as a down payment for a 2004 Nissan Titan (with only 28k miles). Its what he always wanted and now that we have the means to get it for him… I’m okay with that. I just got a new-to-us 2003 Honda Civic 4 door from my dDad (we are making his payments on it for it), plus buying a car in our name will definately help build up some good credit for when we go to buy a house. Having a 700 credit score means crap if it doesnt have a house or a car on there too. Oh well. We are pretty excited. Here are som pictures of our car after the accident.
Showers
Today was a busy day filled with two showers that we had to go to.
This morning from ten to about twelve was a bridal shower for Jamie’s cousin, Michael, and his fiance, Lindsay. They are getting married July 21st. Jamie had to work today so his mom, Taylor, and I were just going but Jamie forgot to leave the carseat at home for us to put in his mom’s car (at the moment we only have one car between me and him, so we have to share it and borrow his moms sometimes). Jamie and I bought them a present so I just ended up leaving Taylor with his mom and I went to drop of the presents -and I stayed a bit too- and then go to Jamie’s work to get the carseat. Jamie took his lunch break with me and we went out to lunch. It was yummy mexican food. Mmm.
Anyway, we then we had a baby shower to go to at three o’clock. By the time I got home from getting the carseat and eating lunch it was already two, so we got our stuff ready and left. The shower was for my mother-in-law’s friend Mariyln’s son and his wife. They are expecting a baby boy sometime in July. They had the baby shower at an antique mall that had a tea room. It was a cute place with very good tea. Taylor did not get her nap today, so she was a little cranky at first in the tea room… but she settled down after awhile. As soon as we left, she passed out in her carseat. Poor Baby.
We just got back home and I am a little tired from it all. Just thought I’d leave a quick message before Jamie gets home which should be any minute -and there he is- lol. so bye.
Doctor Visit
Thursday night I just could not sleep. I was so miserable that I kept tossing and turning all night long. I could not breathe, I felt like something was sitting/pushing down on my chest, I couldn’t stop coughing, and my nose was stopped up. It was awful. I set an appointment with my doctor for Friday at 11am. I also decided to go ahead and take Taylor to the doctor as well; she had a little running nose and a small cough, but it was more… if I’m going, why not take her too. But she is a very “busy” girl and can be a handful, so if I was going I needed someone to go with me to help me with her when I am being seen. Jamie talked to his boss/manager/whatever he is called and they let him take off a few hours in the middle of the day to go with us.
Jamie’s new job at Capital One Auto right off the tollway, but since I was in Sherry’s car I could not go on it. She does not have a tolltag on her car (like we do on ours) and I don’t carry cash on me. I had to go a roundabout way to pick up Jamie before we head over to the doctor’s office, that I picked out close to his work. It ended up taking me twice the time to get to his work than it would if I had gone on the tollway. I was late so I called the doctor to let them know and they just switched my appointment time to 11:30 instead. We didn’t arrive until 11:45 and the doctor had just left for lunch. We went ahead and filled out new paperwork so it would be ready, but we had to wait until 1pm for the next available appointment.
It took awhile waiting and we didn’t get done until about 3pm. He said I had an asthma attack, but that my lungs, ears, throat, and nose look fine. So he gave me an inhaler, had me do a stronger dose at the office with a breathing treatment. He would then like a follow up appointment for Tuesday. Taylor was fine and he didn’t see the need to give her any medicine at all.
Today I went back to my doctor for the follow-up and really didn’t feel any better. The initial breathing treatment helped a bunch, but that is all that has gotten better. My voice is cracking and starting to fade. He said I have laryngitis and gave me a steroid shot to try to help it. I don’t feel so bad right now, except for my throat area. It just feels like you might think it would, like its kind of swollen and a little hard to breathe out of… and my voice sounds horrible.
Well, I think dinner is ready so I think I will end it with that. But I sure hope my voice comes back and my throat feels better soon.
