Being a Girl

So, I am laying here dealing with my monthly 36 hours of not feeling well and I am feeling particularly chatty. Do you think it's due to all of the chemicals, not entirely natural, flowing through me? The doctors have offered up several different kinds of plans to 'fix' this time of the month for me. One option, going on birth control pills. Those pills are supposed to trick your body into thinking it's pregnant. That won't work too well for me as my body hates being pregnant. Another option is hormones that throw me into menopause for 9 months in the hopes that it will kill of the endometrial tissue that isn't where it should be. I am not inclined with messing with all of my hormones in the hopes of avoiding 36 hours of pain every month. I already have enough hormone problems as it is. Hubby and I discussed this yet again yesterday. I told him he has headaches all of the time, we can just think of it that way for me, except I can predict when I am getting them. Plus, I kind of like to think of it as one day off for me each month. I am laying in bed, reading all of your blogs, and watching Lord of the Rings. Hubby whisked the girls out of the house while I was falling asleep. I woke up too soon because Mr Kitty was scratching at my door to get out. I always pay attention to that because I don't want him having an accident anywhere, although, that hasn't been a problem for him.

The weather has been lovely here. It rained quite a bit yesterday. I was out running errands and as I came out of Michaels there were many people standing under the overhang waiting for a slowing of the 'gully washer'. I took off running and I could hear a few comments as I ran into the parking lot. I wanted to turn around and say, at least it's not 35 degrees outside. The rain was warm and wasn't too bad to be out in.

Our house is coming together nicely. We are slowly getting things where we want them. We are headed off to San Antonio next weekend. We will see the Alamo, the Riverwalk and of course, Six Flags. The weather is starting to heat up and I want to get in some good sightseeing before it's too hot for Fiona to be out. I can't believe we only have about 4 months and then she's done. No longer do we have to worry about going places and forgetting her medicine. Worrying about germs everywhere we go. I have to say, we will probably continue our application of antibacterial wash, it has kept us really healthy.
