Pain Again

Woke up this morning in about the same amount of pain as I started off with the other day before my trip to the ER. Let's hope that my day doesn't include another trip.
I've let the babies out to run in the yard for a bit. As soon as the hubby comes downstairs I'm going to lay down.
I found this blogging app for my phone and its working pretty great. Already I have managed to blog more than I thought I would. You can post pictures really easy as well. Now the only thing I really need to do is to update my site. Maybe I'll get around to that soon.

Kidney Infection

Well Friday I had to be taken to the hospital in an ambulance. I was at work so it was quite embarrassing ti day the least.
Turns out they tell me I have a kidney infection. Says its in the upper part of my kidney and I understand that is usually more severe. All I know is I hurt really bad and I hope I never go through all that pain again. Just awful!!
My hubby came to the hospital and sat with me until I got released about 5pm. Super glad that I didn't have to stay all night.
They have me some pain pills, anti biotics and I have to go see my family doctor on Monday.
Sure hope this has nothing to do with the Atkins diet that I have been on for almost a year now. Guess I will find or more Monday.

Dreary Day

Its going to be a blah day but at least the snow has gone away. Its only February and yet its in the 50's. Hope to see the sun sometime this week. The dogs are loving the warmer weather.

Valentines Day

My hubby surprised me with these flowers and a shar pei card!! He did good this year!! Hated that I had trio work though. Our 10 year anniversary is coming up this month. Hard to believe!!

Losing weight

I started the Atkins diet back in March. So far I have lost right at 38lbs. I am very happy, but am trying to lose at least 20 more pounds.

Hmm...just not good with this

I'm thinking that perhaps the reason I'm not good at remembering to blog as often as I'd like to share info with my friends, may be due to the fact that I'm forced to leave an End of shift report at work and it makes me rack my brain to remember what I have done in the last 8 hours and not forget anything, that by the time I'm finished with that.....well I've done all the talking so to speak for one night.
Maybe I should start trying to do this of the morning before I go to work. Hmmm....there's a thought, we'll see how far I get with that one.
On a happier note. It's been 3 months now since I started my Atkins diet. I'm now down 23lbs!!!! Yay for me. Hope to be able to lose another 12 by my birthday in August. Fingers crossed!
It's been so humid here that I've not got to enjoy much of the outdoors as of late. I mainly stay in the air conditioned house, along with the pei, who are none to interested in being out in the heat and humidity either.
Think that is enough for the night. I'm off to read in my book now. Catch ya next time.

Day before Mother's Day

Tonight I went to a dinner with my Mother and my sister for Mother's Day. It was nice and I was really glad to see my sister. We don't see each other enough now days. Of course she has 5 kids to keep her very busy, but I miss her all the same. She can't get on the internet cause she doesn't have a computer at home, but I hope one day she will.
I had some flowers delivered to my Mother on Thursday. She really likes them. I plan to go by and visit with her tomorrow.
