2 tums and some peppermints

TGIF!! Even though I only worked 4 days this week- I am exhausted. It hit me that I had only 2 more days to learn the whole process of adoptions from a lovely lady who has been doing it for 23 years. Understandably I became very nervous and overwhelmed. I had to say something and I did. They understood my point and agreed with me and reassured me that I wasn't doing this all by myself as I previously thought. That made me feel better. It's like a crash course in adoptions.

My stomach has been giving me some troubles as well.

I'm excited to relax, maybe try something from pinterest that I found.

Cheers it the weekend.

For the longest time...

This week feels like it has dragged on for weeks. It was a 4 day work week but it felt like I've worked 5 straight days. :/ tomorrow is Friday yay!

Saturday will be 4 months Gluten Free!! Wahoo. I'm hoping to try a craft that I've found on pinterest. I've bought some of the supplies last week and in sad to say that they are still sitting in the bag :(

Day three... Happiness

Had another awesome day. Went to court. Found my way through the whole building. Met another boy ( I swear this is a joke). My computer went crazy and printed what I needed like a bijallion times.

Overall great day.

Day two... Still awesome

Another great day at work. I met another young single employee today. Yesterday I met the tech guy, today was the clerk. It's quite funny and the whole situation makes me giggle. Everyone wants to set me up! I was feel good and it was good.

You make me smile, please stay awhile.

Best day everrr!!!!

Today was such an amazing first day. I feel so blessed to have this opportunity. I am thankful that they have put so much faith in me. I know I won't let them down. I am excited for the first time in a long time for the next 30 + years of my life and career.

never ever give up.

Helmets on, it's (really) go time.

Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of my career. Yup that's right my career- I start my big girl job at the courthouse. I am very very excited and eager and a tiny bit of nervousness. I have to go to employee relations and fill out lots of papers and get my Id photo taken!!

I need to be bright eyed and bushy tailed early tomorrow morning.

Today is the first day of the rest of your life.

It hurts here but not over there

Thursday- I awoke this morning to an incredible pain in my stomach. I thought I had just slept wrong but no it was persistent. Luckily I was already heading to the doctors. Luckily I was the first person there and again I was standing on line at an unlikely place (I stood online for 5 hours for a silly generator in home depot before hurricane Irene). I had to fill out paperwork then i waited... After the normal blood pressure and weight. Then I finally was able to see the doctor and he said I had an infection and gave me a prescription for antibiotics and I was on my way.
After waiting for my prescription I was on my way back to bed.
Sunday- I am feeling much better my energy is back and I feel great but I keep having these episodes where the pain in my stomach get so intense and so painful for maybe 15-20 minutes then it goes away. The whole episode lasts for about an hour then I'm fine. Weird. I also made an appointment for a gastroentrolgist. in November- it was the earliest appointment I could get. :/

I had plans for this past week to prepare for my new job but a severe fever and abdominal pain kept me in bed all week. I tried on all my work clothes and heels and most of them fit. I need to add heel pads in some of my heels. And some of my pants need to be tailored.

I am really really excited for Monday. I am a little nervous but I know I will adapt and do fine. A lot of people have a lot of faith in me and they know I can do it.
