An Icy Day

Zaid's leg was fine, our pediatrician said to give it one more day, that most likey he injured it and did not know it.
I went back to school on Monday, Jan 26. Today ice came to our area so I stayed home from school with Zaid. His school was out because of the ice. One of my fears is of falling down the icy hill at WKU. That could have very well happened today. We got a text message from the University that said "Avoid walking under trees as a student has been injured by a falling tree branch." I should take a picture of the ice tomorrow. It is really pretty, although I know it is doing a lot of damage all around me. I had to get out for a little while this afternoon to run some errands that could not wait, the roads were good as far as I could tell.

Zaid's Leg

The Friday after Thanksgiving, Zaid went to the Georgia Aquarium. That night, he began to complain of leg pain. He started limping. He has had the leg pain since that day. We gave him Tylenol, that seemed to help a little. He is going to the Pediatrician tomorrow. I do not think I have ever been this concerned about his health as I am now---researching what could be wrong with him. The possibilities seem endless so I eventually gave up and will wait until his Pediatrician makes a ruling.
It broke my heart when he prayed for his leg to be better; I am so thankful he looks up for healing. I just wish he was not in any pain.

A Birthday Toast, Actually a Birthday Surgery

It has been a LONGGGG time since I last blogged on here. :-) Guess I have been either a) super busy or 2) watching too much TV. I entered the politics world recently, then I kinda left that. Then I fell in love with the show HOUSE, then I kinda left that behind. LOL Sometimes I crack myself up. I am still in school--elementary education. Eventually I'll be teaching little ones (I hope.) If I can pass this BIOLOGY ONLINE LAB. Every time I think about it; it makes me ANGRY. I neva shoulda signed up for online classes; I do not do well working from home. Nope. I guess this class will be like my High School Physics class, when I finally realized that I would have to go to the class and *cough, cough* study to pass, I WENT. I PASSED. I think I got an A in there.
The week of my Fall Break, I had to make a trip to Indianapololis and Hammond, IN (close to Chicago) with Tamer. Not really a pleasure trip. Then we get home, get unpacked and Sunday morning I wake up with terrible pain. I thought it was food poisoning. I went to my birthday lunch at The Chop House. I had been looking forward to it for awhile. Then I feel like I'M GOING TO DIE. I COULD BARELY WALK. AHHHHHHHHHHH.................I still went shopping for some things I need. :-) hehe Come home......do homework.........CRY myself to sleep. Wake up---go to school, call my friend Allison to let her know that I have some sort of tummy virus and I can't make it to her end-o-summer bbq. She said "Jennifer, it's probably your freakin' appendix." I call my Mom, then Tamer, then he calls the Dr. b/c my phone is about to die. I go to see my Dr., he orders a CAT scan, HEY, Allison was right, it's my appendix! ON my Birthday....my 28th Birthday. Ahhhhh.....
I had (1) mint and 4 (rolaids) ALL DAY LONG--I thought I had heartburn. :-) My head hurt so bad. I cried. It was awful. Why didn't I TAKE TYLENOL WHEN IT FIRST STARTED TO HURT, WHY DIDN'T I ask for medicine?????
Then I have surgery. They took out my appendix on my 28th. Guess it coulda been worse, huh?????

New York

On May 23rd, I boarded a plane for Newark, NJ for a Girls Trip to NYC!! The best thing about that trip was just hanging out with my friends. It was refreshing and wonderful. The memories will never be forgotten.
