After getting over my mortification at my 2 year old making international phone calls and potentially waking someone up in the middle of the night, it got me to thinking about friendships and relationships. Every friendship that I have had, ( Read more... )

I was reading back through some old emails this morning. The last time I did that I was filled with regret, shame and embarrasment. This time though, I just laughed.

James has just gotten over the bug i've come down with and "suggested" that playing the computer in bed might be a good idea.So fqr there's been a sore throat, headache, chills and dizzy spells. Oh and for some strange reason, my bones feel like they have electrical currents running through them ( Read more... )

I went to see the doctor yesterday. He's scheduled a few blood tests and given me referrals for a chest x-ray and ECG to find out what is wrong with my heart. He basically said to me he could give me something to stop the pain and palpitations but he'd rather know exactly what is wrong first. I tend to agree, I'd rather not take medication ( Read more... )
