Ack. I thought I was going to be ok. I've had a terrible headache since last Monday but thought it might be stress or hormones but, its getting worse. I had to close all the curtains in the house yesterday because the light was hurting. I'm SO nauseous, I'm taking Zofran (an anti-nausea medication) every 6 hours but have still thrown up twice. My tummy is in such a tizzy. I'm eating pretty much only bagels and toast right now. Its an awful feeling, I'm SO hungry from the steroids but SO nauseous and sick from the Imuran and high dose Enbrel. I've had the worse tummy cramps and bouts of C and D. I'm so very weak. I'm dizzy and my ears are ringing. I just want to curl up in bed with my "boys" and heating pad. I can't believe I'm at work. I wish I had the option of taking some time off but if I'm not here, I have to close the office.

Oliver is still having potty accidents. I took him out when I arrived at work as he seems to potty outside as opposed to potty on the papers. He didn't go so I waited half an hour and took him out again, nothing. Ok, so I waited 10 minutes and took him to the papers in the back, nothing. Not 2 minutes later, he peed on the carpet at work! He really is a good puppy, he's just a PUPPY and I got spoiled with Harley. Harley was such a good puppy and didn't have any problems training him. Oliver is in his create napping right now. Harley is curled up under my desk, napping. I would give my eye teeth for a nap right now.....

I've also got a routine dental appt tomorrow. I haven't had my teeth cleaned in about a year, gross, I know. I was so busy with all the fertility stuff last summer, then was pregnant, then the Ra and I just haven't been. I HATE going and its before work so I can't take too many pills because I have to come to work and function afterwards. I was thinking about resheduling but it really needs to be done.

Then, we made plans for this weekend. Actually, we made the plans 3 months ago. My husband LOVES beer! There is the Michigan Brewers Guild coming to a Town about 45 minutes from here next weekend. We went a few years ago and really had a great time, even though I don't like beer. We made plans to go with my friend and her boyfriend. We have a Taxi reserved and a hotel room so we don't have to worry about anything after drinking all day. Its an outdoor festival and they have bands and such. I'm really worried about how I'm going to feel. I don't feel like I can say I'm too sick to go because its the ONLY thing we have planned this summer and WIll has been so looking forward to it. Obviously, if I'm not feeling well, I won't drink but having to be outside all day and walking around and everything. Its just going to be a lot. I'm prepared to pop a few extra pills to get through the day but I guess I'm just angry that I can't even have ONE day of fun. I'm going to smile and put on a happy face for Wills sake. I guess if I'm over in the bushes puking no one will think much of it since it is a beer festival and I'm sure there will be lots of drunk people!

Just venting I suppose. Could use some love and some hugs if you can spare'm.
