****Thursday Roll Call****
at work til 230 ish i believe then home. Hubby sent me a text message that two boxes arrived from my gf ins California!! Im excited!! I cant wait to get home.
I have been dealing with some weird things going on. I sleep for like 3 hours a night then cannot sleep for the rest of the night. I have had only 7 hours of sleep in 2 nights now. Im so tired but seriously cannot sleep. Im not sure what to do at this point.
Any suggestions!!

I believe benadryl is safe in pregnancy - you could try that (double check w/ your doc first though) And as a suggestion - I've noticed that due to our absorption issues meds like that tend to wear off in the first few hours, because we stop absorbing them....so you can do one of a few things...
A) Crush the pill (they sell pill crushers at drug stores/food stores) and mix it with a spoonful of pudding/yogurt/applesauce (warning: tastes NASTY),
B) get the liquid form, or,
C) specifically for benadryl look for the "sleep meltaways" I think it is unisom as the brand name. All it is is benadryl (diphenhydramine) (Look at many of the OTC sleep aides - anything that says diphenhydramine as an ingredient is nothing more than benadryl...tylenol and advil PM are nothing more than the tylenol and/or advil mixed with benadryl...)
Again...talk to your doctor about it before you do any of it. I go through times like that too - and it totally sucks....

Morning!
Well I finally feel close to human this morning. I must admit I felt better when I first woke up - then I had something to eat - and am queasy yet again - but no where near where I have been for the past couple of days. I have also figured out that I have a UTI - am wondering if the nausea and what not is related? Laura, keep your germs to yourself next time, huh? I'll be getting meds for that tonight at work.
Anyway - on to today. Apparantly hubby wants to learn FB??
He's never had any interest in it before...so interesting. Feel free to look him up in about an hour, LOL Hopefully he'll know how to respond if his teacher is good enough.
I'm sure some Battlestar will be on the agenda..followed by a nice long nap. I guess I should go back to work tonight - for the last night of the week. Part of me wants to stay home just for the hell of it...but I know that's not right. So...back to work for 7p-7a tonight before starting off the weekend tomorrow!
Off for the FB lesson now....

Hi everyone!
At work today- second day of the semester. It's a TINY bit less hectic than yesterday, but the first week of the semester usually just stinks, trying to keep the systems from crashing due to overload. And explaining (yet again) to upper mgt WHY this is the case every semester. What joy.
Had a really nice run this morning - pushed myself and connected 3 of my usual running segments into one long segment, which I've been working up to, and it didn't feel as bad as I thought it would. The whole run felt great, in fact. Of course, I left my Niki+ sensor sitting on my desk at work, so I had to manually time it and I don't have splits or paces, which bums me out. Ah well.
After work it's home to work on a client website and have a conf call with another client.
I also have to get out and find a better gym bag for work (any recommendations for where to go and what to look for, ladies?)... using my little overnight sac didn't work so well. I think I need something with segments for toiletries and shoes to wear in the shower, damp towel/washcloth, and the nice work clothes I'm changing into (including work shoes). Plus, the locker room has no mirrors or shelves (weird) except a "low mirror" that I have to bend down to see my face in to do my hair - so I've got to find a little portable locker mirror. OH... and we're not allowed to leave things in a locker, so have to schlep everything back and forth. I keep reminding myself that I shouldn't complain - it's FREE and it's cleanish. Just gotta get organized!
Have a great day!

Karen, I got the nicest gym bag at Marshalls for $10! It has everything you're looking for - the separate pouch for your shoes plus another pouch on the other end. In the front there is a zipper pouch with places for your cell phone, iPod, little pockets plus an interior zipper pouch that I put my jewelry in. I think its a Reebok (don't have it with me today) but they had a lot to choose from and their prices are really good - check Marshalls or TJ Maxx (or Ross) if you have one around. Good luck and happy shopping!
