Leaving bronze (or newbie!) status
Re: Leaving bronze (or newbie!) status
I was hot when I left the house this morning because I had the heater on, took a hot shower, and dried my hair. So I went out without a coat, thinking I was fine. Then I cooled off in the car. When I got out to walk into work, I thought I was going to freeze!
I had to give a statement to a lawyer and the police one time for a harassment case. I was a mess!
I'm out shopping & everyone is giving me the strangest looks cause I'm in a dress & tights with a light knitted jacket.
Maybe I'm weird & dont consider this parka weather...
I walked out in a short sleeve dress and tights this morning (it can get hot in the office) and no jacket. I'm weird with you.
Besides my joints, my joints are HATING the cold weather.
So what do you have to do differently? Hopefully knowing that can help you feel a little better!
I have to take an iron supplement. My original bloodwork on Nov 7th was normal, but when they did bloodwork Monday because I'd been so sick they found my hemoglobin had dropped, so I probably am anemic because I was sick (this is my guess, not anything the dr said). At least it's not like I've been deficient for very long. Symptoms of anemia are feeling tired, weak, and dizzy, headaches, irritability, and several others that I'm not sure I had, but I for sure am experiencing those I mentioned. I just figured I was sick!
We go back for the anatomy scan on the 29th, and then have another appointment on the 4th, and I'm sure they'll do another blood draw but I think I'll be taking iron for the rest of the pregnancy. Hopefully, the problem is an iron deficiency and not from not getting enough folic acid or B12. I will also begin taking a B6 supplement, but that has to be special ordered because it is a low mg.
I think I missed why you are on the phone?????
Funny how one "little" thing can affect people so much! I'm glad they found it though. If all you need is a supplement (and I really hope that's it!) and you get to feel better, that's fantastic!
WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I get to spend Christmas, New Years, AND G's Bday with him!!!!! All in one trip!! I can't freaking wait. That's what I was on the phone for, but I didn't want to jinx it by typing it.
I had found a fare online and went to book it, but it gave me an error. So I called continental (the first time) and the guy wasn't very nice. He told me that the website was pulling up an old price from my cookies and there was nothing he could do. He quoted a price almost $100 higher than the online price. So I deleted the cookies, rebooted, and tried again. Still showed the same price, gave the same error. Called back, sat on hold another 10 minutes waiting for someone to answer. Nicest guy ever. He stayed on the phone with my for 50 minutes until he found a way to make the trip work. It's a little more than the fare that was online, but it's a direct flight both ways (the original had a layover in CHI...1.25 hours going, 2.5 hours coming back). So I'm ok with paying a few more dollars.
I cried when the guy told me that he figured it out. I had gone off at him earlier
(told him I was sorry, and I knew it wasn't his fault, I was just so frustrated). He said it was fine and apologized to me. I think I thanked him 10 times at the end of the call. As I cried. LOL. EEEEEEKKKKK!!!!!!
Thanks! Eeeeeee!!!
LOL. I've never watched that one.
