Rita, let Blain know we love him and are still praying for all of the family. Emily, I loved the pics. Yal look like 2 peas in a pod lol. Janet, I want a pic of Steve with suspenders on and explain some more on this jungle gym? I fixed lasagna today and used Paul's sauce recipe. It was good :P We watched Coal tonight as well. Did anyone watch "Extreme Couponing" on TLC? It came on at 8pm, 9 and 930. All different episodes. If you're wondering, it's about people who are a little on the obsessive side ( I think) of using coupons. These people go and spend $600-$1200 (just the episodes tonight) using in-store sales, in-store coupons and clipped coupons and pay most of the time less than 10% of the retail value. One lady paid $6.97 of $687 worth of groceries. I couldn't believe it!! She had a box with her that had 2500 coupons in it. They also buy alot of bulk so that means they have to have a place to put it. Looks like they have a small grocery store in their house. It seemed like most of them were shopping at Kroger's. I'm going to have to check into their in-store coupons and sales and may have to do some checking into this myself. Monday evening while I was getting Marleigh's bath water ready I noticed that when I would breathe I would have a sharp pain in the center of the right side of my back. We had played outside that evening so I thought I might have pulled a muscle although I didn't recall having any pain while outside. I put her to bed and tried to lay down on the couch but that didn't help. I took some Excedrine and went to bed at 930 hoping it would go away. It didn't. I couldn't lay on my back or my stomach because that seemed to make it worse. I tried laying on my left side with my arm and leg on top of a body pillow and if I didn't hold my limbs the right way it would get worse. The only relief I seemed to get was laying on my right side but I still couldn't take a full breath without pain. This lasted all night, I got no sleep. I did pray at some point in the night and I think I might have got about 30 minutes of sleep at that time. I finally got up that morning a little after 8, took a shower and called the dr. He's thinking that the bottom of my right shoulder blade is digging into the outer lining of my lung causing irritation and inflamation thus causing the pain. He said that it may have come from carring Marleigh and maybe turning the wrong way. He told me not to be carring her for a few days :( Well that only lasted a few hours that day. I have tried not to pick her up as much and if I have to I try to put most of the weight on my left arm. He put me on an anti-inflamitory and it feels so much better now but I still feel a little glitch near the bottom of my shoulder blade. I had never heard of such before but I'm glad to be feeling almost back to normal :P When I got my prescription filled that morning I just wanted to get the meds in my system so the pain would go away so I took the first pill with a glass of milk like he told me. We then headed to Christiansburg, had lunch, then went to the mall to walk around a little bit. My stomach started cramping something awful, I was almost in a sweat. I took off to the restroom and for the first couple minutes nothing happened. I was so confused and started thinking the dr had the wrong diagnoses. Then it hit me..........I have not had the runs like that in some time, I can't even remember when. And it wasn't just once but twice and then as soon as we got home. Needless to say I told Mark we were going to have to leave the mall early lol!! I got home and read the information that came on my prescription and it said to take with food (which I didn't at first) and that diarreha could be a side effect. Thus, the lesson of that day was " read the instuctions and information before taking medicine no matter HOW much pain you are in" LOL!! By the way, does anyone know if we are going to have an Easter Egg hunt that weekend?
