I would like to announce that I have some very good news! For the past week, I've struggled with some horrible headaches and a constant low-grade fever. Last night, while contemplating this, I cried myself to sleep thinking that I either finally caught the life threatening brain malaria, dengue fever, a brain fever of some sort, or I had a brain tumor. I knew that this morning, I would go in to the Dr and would find out that I only had a month left to live and they'd send me home and I'd have operations and I wouldn't be able to be with my kids...I still feel sad when I think about it!! Well, I don't have malaria, or dengue fever...no brain fever...and, well, we're pretty sure there are no tumors. The good news: I suffer from 'mild' migraines! How wonderful! And what's even better, since I'm in the first trimester of pregnancy, I can't take anything except TYLENOL and if anyone out there suffers from migraines, you will know that Tylenol doesn't do a thing. Oh well.
Another sad thing for today...we received a bunch of packages of cereal from Amazon (where we always buy cereal) and I was so excited that Devin got me a yummy treat: Chips Deluxe cookies!! AND Cocoa Krispies! Oh, yummy!! I was eating the cookies with ice cream for our FHE treat and it gave me goose bumps (and Devin laughed at me). Oh, the heaven of processed foods in my first trimester! Ha!! But, that is not the sad part. The sad part was, that in every box we received from Amazon (we got about 4 of them) there was an insert for a free chicken sandwich from McDonalds. Oh, I almost cried! I carried them around with me and looked at the picture and drooled and wished so much that I could get a chicken sandwich! Ah, processed goodness! How am I managing to live without it??? I'm thinking of having the little pictures of the chicken sandwiches framed...or at least put them on the fridge so I can dream. I know I probably shouldn't do that to myself, but, well, I guess it's just a silly pregnancy hormone thing. I have no idea why I am addicted to nasty fast food when I'm pregnant, but, there it is!!
