Shew! Did I complain yet about how bad these headaches are getting??!?!? I had a Pampered Chef show scheduled for tonight but cancelled this past Wednesday because I hardly got any RSVPs and because of the weather situation, our road is still quite slippery. The way I’ve been feeling for the last two days, it was a good decision because I dont think I could have hosted the show tonight. I did end up w/ enough orders to count as a show though, so that helps. The greatest part was giving away the host benefits, I had planned on doing a drawing to see who would win the benefits of hosting which include points for free stuff and great discounts. the person who won was excited and said she never wins anything, I am glad she can pick out free stuff! If anyone wants to place a Pampered Chef order send me an email or even if you’d like to host a show. It could be as easy as gathering 6 or more orders from your friends and then enjoying the host benefits as a catalog show and you wont even have to have people over! You can look online at products or I can mail you a catalog. Well thats my plug! I love these products and am glad I can earn them for free or at great discounts by being a consultant! Just send me a email if you want to know more!!

The juror is in, or rather the doctors orders. I am going to try the Topamax again, it’s the med I was on before around Thanksgiving that helped me lose all the weight but made me crazy! But the hope is that taking it alone, as opposed to w/ the diamox as before, helps the side effects. I’m all for doing something to lose weight, but the point is we cant focus on getting pregnant right now. The headaches and spots are a lot worse this week, so I am almost ok with going back on meds. The dr said my eyes look fine, which is good news, but doesnt explain the spots I’m seeing. So I have to see the eye dr again, and I didnt like how the last appointment w/ him went, so I’m not quite looking forward to it. I’m feeling particularly bad today, not sure what the difference is, probably just because I didnt sleep well last night, due to all the stress. I’ve got another pressing health matter I’m worried about but dont want to talk about freely yet, I am hoping that after my drs appointments that I have for Monday wil help relieve alot of stress related to that matter and then I can hopefully talk about it, or at least can not stress so much about it. They’re calling for a huge wintry mess Sunday - Tuesday next week, I am so hoping it doesnt affect my doctors appointment. Luckily Dean will be home so I am hoping if the weather is bad he’ll drive me to my two appointments.

Well I hope everyone has a great weekend, we’re going to have a busy one, and hopefully it will be good too!
