Waking up

This morning I had to wake up to come to work at the hospital.
Bri stayed with my Mom last night, so I was all alone with Mr. Kennedy (my cat).
We first fell asleep on the couch, then around midnight, moved to my bed.
I put a heating pad underneath my back to keep me warm at night... that way I don't have to turn the heater on in my house (am I smart or what?! or just crazy :))
Anyways, my alarm went off at 4:45am and I did my normal routine of hitting the snooze, yelling inside my head at myself as to why I didn't call in sick (I haven't called in sick in 4 years-but I still tell myself that before every shift)... then I fell back asleep and woke up to a purring cat on my face. He was trying to get to my heating pad underneath my back and the closest he could get was to sit on my face... so I moved him down to the heating pad and he was in love!!!! He was purring so loudly I didn't need my snoozed alarm to go off again. He was so sweet and I got dressed and he just sat by me until I left for work... had to eat a bagel, drink a cup of coffee and watch a little of this movie I recorded last night... then, I finally left my house at 5:45am... a little bit late but it was worth all the extra love I got from my cat!! He is so funny.

Another side note... I was in origins and have been big on preventing wrinkles in my face... I started noticing more grey hair and I get paranoid that I would next see wrinkles on my ugly mug (I love that saying, but no I don't really have a bad complex)....
so, this little lady convinced me at origins to buy the most expensive moisturizer... then, she was apauled that I didn't use a day mosturizer... I was like, lady, I buy my make up at walmart, do you think I'm that concerned about mosturizing in the day?
So, I broke down and bought that.... THEN.....
I needed an exfoliator....
Ok, broke down and bought that...
after all was said and done I had spent 100 dollars on some products that would last about 3 months (6 months by the way I conserve) which comes to a little less than 20 dollars a month to prevent wrinkles.
Ok. So, I started using it and I thought I would notice a shiny (pregnancy like glow) on my newly mosturized, vitamin C, paprika seed oiled, etc, etc...face.
Then, in like 3 days I compeltely broke out, which meant I had to attack my face with my finger nails... now, I'm stuck with like 4 scabs on my face that looks very oily/greasy all the time...
All this for 100 bucks.

Was it worth it??

That's all for now

27 Weeks Pregnancy Update

27 weeks today. Is this the third trimester or not?!? Some websites say it is, some says 28 is. So, I'm not too sure. Weight Gain:  33.3 lbs total. Only half a pound of away from what I gained with Jamyson and I still have 13 weeks left (waaaahhhh.....) I feel huge. I am huge! It's harder to walk and my feet hurt now, lol. Exercise:  I'm still walking but I cut back last week and only did 14.7 miles. I broke the 200 miles for the year for the "run the year 2017"! However, the more I walk, the more I eat and the more weight I gain (eek)! Cravings/Diet:  I've been craving lemon lime gatorade. Weird right?! It's delicious. I've also been getting reece's blasts from Sonic. They are so good! I threw in a cooke dough blizzard from dairy queen. That was delicious and not helping with my weight gain. Morning Sickness: Still no morning sickness but I'm still taking 2 diclegis every night. Sleep:  Didn't nap as much last week. Just didn...

Our Experience with Covid 19

I'm writing to share our experience with Covid-19. With the reopening of the lockdown, many new cases are flooding the world. My husband is the Regional Sales Manager at Century 21 Judge Fite in Rockwall. He has been in real estate for the past seven years. He is an amazing realtor and even better manager. I am very proud of him and I stand behind him no matter what. Saturday July 5th is started feeling ill after a work out. He had recently joined Legends Fit in Rockwall and started a program where he had to lose 25lbs or 6.9% body fat in 6 weeks and he would get a free membership for the year. After 3 weeks and a very strict diet and workout, he had lost close to 20 lbs and 5.3% body fat. He started running a fever Saturday afternoon and felt very fatigued. No real respiratory symptoms and his pulse ox never dropped below 98 percent. His heart rate was double his resting heart rate. He tested on Monday morning and received word Tuesday around 5:30pm that he was pos...

Ashton's Birth Story-VBAC

I started this last pregnancy journey with the goal of finishing my second VBAC. Here's the story (So that I never forget any of my children's birth, I have documented each one's stories)... Around 4pm on Thursday August 1, 2019, I went into the hospital. I was having irregular contractions, dilated to 2 cm and 50% effaced. I was 39 weeks and 3 days pregnant.  Here is a photo: I am almost 6 feet tall and had gained nearly 50 lbs. Most of which I gained in the first and second trimester. I continued to workout this whole pregnancy in hopes that my body would bounce back quicker. Time will tell. So, my doctor came in around 5:30pm and said he was going to do the foley cervical dilation balloon again since that worked with Elizabeth. So, they inserted the foley balloon which is extremely painful because I have a tilted cervix which apparently hides behind my spine. He tried to do it with a tool and ended up having to do it manually with his hands.  Then, I ...
