Wow, I had an OK day. BUT it all changed because when I checked the mail, I got a letter from HR stating that they are denying my disability request. It said something about me turning in the paperwork in 15 days late, which makes no sense because I was asked to turn it in after the 7th day of being at home. It also said I am ineligible for payment for the next 31 days. It makes me livid. The thought of this kind of mess this early in my pregnancy just makes me stress out. I was already stressing on the fact of how we would survive after I had the baby, you know day care vs stay at home mom. I am going to be sure to call on Monday to clarify that this letter applies to me. It just bothers me so much because I have seen people at my job fracture their wrist on a medical record and they were off for about a year, and of course it was paid leave. But little old me that thinks its stealing tax payers money to go into work and not be productive doesn’t get any pay.

I was thinking about this all night last night, just thinking how it was all ponies and rainbows for a while just knowing that I would at least get 55% of my salary, but now its all rotten dead ponies and tornadoes. OK I am pretty sure i am done with my rant.

We don’t have much planned for today, but I have to sit down and think about how we are going to come up with the rent. Ugh and I still have to go buy groceries. I will probably look around for some coupons. I used to go to this really cool site that would list local sales, I just can’t remember what the URL was. Anyways, I just found out we will be going out later on so I better start getting ready.

Well, I went back to work today. So not cool I was catching shit left and right for what I didn’t do before I left. Like I planned to be off right. I did not even know until Friday that I was not coming back. I hate hate when people expect you to have shit prepared for dumb shit. Usually I get irritated only a bit but today, I knew if I didn’t keep my mouth shut I was going to really regret it.

I was glad to see some co-workers I missed them lol. The one co-worker I really wanted to see was not in today hopefully I will see her tomorrow. I had a somewhat ok day with my nausea. I managed to eat half a tostada. It had re-fried beans and cheese and tomatoes w/ green sauce. It was really good with a ton of lemon. I only got the tostada because I really did not want to walk all the way up to the ATM. So I had about $1.50 to eat and drink lol. The one moment when I realized, at least this is one advantage to morning sickness.

I was shocked to see that it was raining when I started to drive home. I mean it was so cold I was shivering on the way home. I yaked as soon as I got home, so I don’t know what I am going to be eating for dinner. Jello hates me and I hate it too. It can go kiss my ass. Every time I eat it I yak within 3 minutes. I am craving chicken noodle and mashed potatoes. We will see if my hubby will make it for me, since I feel like shit.

Oh yesterday I bought my self a bigger and better hard drive for my laptop. My little laptop seems to be going so much faster. I love it. Thanks Stimulus check!!

Oh and yeah Note to self: Never mix Tums with Orange Juice.

 Well, these past few days have been really busy. I am starting to feel like a Zofran Addict because I NEED it to survive. I would be in terrible, terrible shape with out it lol. So of course I forget it at home when I need it the most. The hubby will be bringing it by before he goes to work. What a lifesaver. I would be doomed for sure. Well to summarize the last few days. Couch + Sleep + Hot House + Nausea = Messed Up Days. I am just glad to actually be up and walking around. Friday was so bad, I ended up calling off it was so bad. I slept out on the couch pretty much all day and my son was super good. He took sympathy in me being sick and actually tried to take care of me. He did not even complain when I plopped a microwaved frozen kids meal in front of him for lunch. To my surprise he is a lot more independent then I thought. He was able to bring both of us water bottles from the pantry as well as snacks for himself. I felt so bad not being able to do the mom things for him.
Saturday was a disaster, I was worse off then Friday, but the only difference is that I did not feel like actually throwing up. I was just unable to eat or drink anything. SO I was pretty much all day without anything to eat or drink. Saturday night I asked hubby to buy me some lemons so I can sniff and eat. LOL they worked though and thats the important thing. I was actually able to eat half a bagel with peanut butter. I slept some what ok though. Sunday I was feeling much better. I actually got up from that couch/bed and moved around with out feeling too bad. I had my moments. Later that evening I was able to eat a cupcake and a burrito so it was all good. I am so much happier that I actually started taking Zofran because there would be no way that I can function here at work. I mean seriously who want s to puke in a public bathroom. I don’t even want to puke in my own bathroom. !!! No that it is dirty, its: I don’t like to puke period!!
Today has gone by super, super slow. I day dream and come up with ways to make money at work, LOL I know. I have a business idea. I want to keep a tight lip about it though. I would need to look at what my start up costs would be as well as what my target audience would be like. As far as I am concerned I think that market is way over saturated with stuff like this, but I am sure I am a great designer and I can make good decisions as far as cosmetic look is involved. I have some ideas as to what would be included in the shop and other thinks I know would not do so great. I am in to make money but not rip people off. I have seen that people charging waaaaaaay too much for an item. For example 38 bucks for something that cost about 4 bucks to make. That’s not cool at all. I will start to set up shop soon and actually get a business plan done. I hope to see how many other people will be doing what I do. I have the ability to get “wholesale” items so we will see what I can pull off. I am excited. I won’t get my hopes up too much since this is about the third business venture I have had in the last few months. I honestly think the second one would have worked; especially now in this terrible economy, but it would be WAY too much liability. I might offer the services to family and friends though. The service I am speaking of is credit repair services. It’s actually very point blank. The laws are clearly written and easy to understand and execute. If you know all of the proper steps to take it works wonders. No illegal stuff either. That’s what made the plan so great, but it involved a lot of start up and covering my/my staff’s butt. Not something I want to be responsible for at the moment.
Well speaking of money I just read my benefits book for my insurance and it covers everything I only pay 1 office co pay throughout the pregnancy. Yay, a repeat c-section is covered as well. I am so glad. I know I was worried about the costs of having private insurance vs. state Medi-cal, you know because they get everything free. It ticks me off sometimes to think even prenatal vitamins are free. I had to pay 35 dollars lol ok END RANT. It really bugs me because my sister in law had trouble with her military benefits covering certain things and her husband (my brother) was in iraq. So not cool.
Lunch time is around the corner so I’d better get to working or I am going to be swamped later this afternoon.

Edit: We bought the Wii Yay! and BOO Zofran actually makes me feel worse, I have constant stomach pain, and here I am thinking it makes me feel better. Boo!

Not much happened today. I was super tired this morning and hit the snooze button about a million times this morning. I swaare something kept waking me up. I finally got up at about 3 am to see what it was, but I found nothing. I got to work early and I guess i like walking in without anyone staring at me. Some people at my job are petty, I have had someone writing down the exact time I was coming in, the best part that person is not even part of my department. LOL! Lame Kiss Ass is what I call her.

Last night before i went to bed I played The Sims 2 to get bored and ready for bed, Sad I know. I just made myself comfy in bed and just hugggged the stuffing out of my body pillow. Work sucked as usual, I went to a couple meetings here and there. I finished a statistical project. ( I fucking hate those with a passion) Then after work I headed on over to Henry’s Market. OMG it was hilarious my son was half way asleep (this following sentence will get me a parent of the year award) we were walking in and SMACK, he ran into the sliding glass door. Some guy walking next to us was like damn!!! My son turned looked at him and said, your gonna get in trouble for saying that, huh mom. I was to busy laughing to respond. He is fine though no bruises or anything. LOL it was way to funny not to laugh though. I spent 12 dollars for 2 nights of dinner plus snacks. Tonight I maden Carne Asada and I marinated the meet in green onions, lemons, red onions, and my special Pampered Chef rub. It was so freaking good. I also made rice.

I am starting to take my camera to work now, that way when I see something interesting I can snapp a picture. I will probably snap a picture of the “animal/bob cat/ mountain lion” my job sent an “all users” memo about , it was priceless. I wish I can go back and find it, we cracked up on that all day. Then next day I was in the parking lot and I saw a small itty bitty kitty kat, and some girl ran away from it, mind you its 50 ft away, and started yelling there it is there it is Becareful it will get you and you will get rabies. Wow I thought it was awsome she was running from a kitty, thinking it was a bob cat.

Well enough with my rambling. I have to plug this site again they have the absolute cutest baby hair bows/clippies.

Man, its going to be a hell of a wait until Monday. Thats when I have my OB appointment. I cannot wait, lol (hehehehehehe) Today was an OK day at work. Same patients same drama as always just different names. Sad but oh so very true. Some lady called and cussed me out today, and I always take it so calmly that my co-workers think that I am insane. I reserve my most sarcastic tone for these calls and always end, thank you for calling, and I was glad to be at your service, LOL and you know that as soon as I hang up I say Bitch.

I ate Thai food for lunch and a mc chicken for dinner. I also bought my self a salad for when I get hungry tonight. McDonalds dollar menu salad looks really good, and it comes with very good dressing. I went to Target, Old Navy and Ross looking for a couple of maternity outfits. I only found some at Ross. I spent about 53 bucks, but its stuff that I can use after the fact. Because I wont be a fit after the baby.  I picked up 3 Maternity shirts, and 2 regular Large shirts. I also got 2 bottoms, Black slacks and Blue Jean Capris. They are very cute. Now all I am going to need to hold me over is a belly band. I want to go to Forever 21 and just find a couple of their tube tops. LOL I am so cheap. I got some leggings from them the other day for 5 bucks. They are super cute, but none of my skirts for so ummmmmmm yeah, I will have to wear them with some type of longer shirt or a dress. I cannot believe how fast I am showing. I guess its because its my second baby, my abdominal muscles did not heal. You’d think that 4 years would do it lol. I have noticed that I cannot walk for too long with out my back starting to hurt a little. Its reassuring and a constant reminder someone is in my belly lol. Well I am off to relax.
