A Huge Turn For The Worst

***

I didn't intend to go all weekend without writing. It just
kind of worked out that way. For some reason, I've taken a
huge turn for the worst and am right back to throwing up
everything I eat or drink. However, today I was able to
keep down half a biscuit with egg and cheese and some
orange juice. Only because I stayed very still in bed all
day and willed myself not to vomit. It was very hard, but
I was able to hold on long enough for the food to leave my
stomach. Then I threw up stomach acid and dry-heaved for a
couple hours on and off. I don't understand it. Is it
possible for morning sickness to resurface after it's
apparent relief? Is it allowed to come back?!

Friday was the day Snookums had his toe surgery. They
permanently removed the nail on his big toe (left side)
because he keeps getting infected ingrown toenails. Not
just little infections, but whole foot infections that are
pretty gross to behold (and I always have to tend to...Not
happening now, thank you very much). I was sick all
morning before we left. I was sick while we were there. I
had to throw up in the hospital parking lot before we came
home. All-in-all, it was a miserable day for the both of
us. Although Snookums was happy to finally have his foot
fixed.

Saturday I didn't wake up feeling any better, but I told
Gen I'd watch Cyrus for her while her chorus performed at
a crafts fair. So, I had to drag my sorry ass out of bed
for that. In all honest getting up is really hard to do,
but it does help a little. It doesn't make the yucky
feeling go away, but it takes my mind off of it, if only
for a moment. Gen and I stopped at a quaint little cafe in
Port Orchard for lunch, but we had to take it to go. Gen
had to pick Sam up. So, I brought it home. All it was was
a simple little cobb salad. I kept it down for a little
while, but I stood up and a wave washed over me. When that
wave washes over me, it's next to impossible not to throw
up.

Well, today is Sunday. I already shared with you how today
went. Much like the rest of my weekend. I just got home
from a store meeting about an hour ago. It was our holiday
meeting, which doesn't make it any different than any
other meeting. Except for the part where we terrify the
seasonal hires with how horrific "Pink" Friday is going to
be. I've lived through it before. It wasn't so bad. I'm
sure I'll be fine this year. Last year I was just another
girl on the floor. This year I'm cash wrap lead. At least
I know what's expected of me this time around. The hype
isn't getting to me, although I'm sure if I go back to
this time last year, it probably wasn't then either...
much.

My stomach is empty and I really want to eat something,
but I know where that'll get me. Yesterday I had some
black tea and that actually felt good on my stomach. I'll
see if I have some tea with ginger in it in my pantry. I'm
pretty sure I do. Maybe I'll brew myself up a pot. Yeah...
Ciao for now.
