PMSing
I woke up cranky this morning, and started reading the news, which of course made me crankier. I felt all out ragey before breakfast. But then I read about a friend who might have Endometriosis - she’s just now hearing about this from her doctor and hopes she doesn’t have it. So I spent part of the morning replying to her and pointing her to my site. This helped me to calm down about everything else in the world.
I’m super tired, so I’m glad today is my day off, so to speak. I babysat for a friend yesterday and took the kids to the beach. The air at the beach is lovely and breathable compared to anywhere inland with all the forest fires raging on.
Tomorrow, I will babysit another child, and Friday I will work at another daycare through the agency.
George is due Saturday, but I’m afraid he’ll show up while I’m at work on Friday. I’ve already started cramping as of this morning, and I have thusly started premedicating.
The pain is dull and feels like it’s in the fat cells in my thighs, and there’s also a low dull pain in my uterus. I’m at the point where I’m starting to check if I’m spotting when I go to the bathroom. So that means george is 24 - 72 hours away.
I also have food cravings from hell - I’ve already gone through my inaugural bag of cheetos, which my man brought home for me the other night without me even making an official demand for them, because he is THE AWESOMEST HUSBAND-TO-BE ON EARTH and knows my cycle so very well.
I have not yet caved to ice cream, caffeine or to very much alcohol (aside from Monday night). I hope I can keep up the strong will to avoid these deadly foods, for they always bring the killer cramps. I’ve already failed on the corn syrup front, as I’ve gone through a small bag of M&M’s in the last few days. And dairy in general I failed at a little bit, as I went through a can of Fritos Jalapeño Cheddar cheese dip.
Must. Remain. Strong.
