that I'm still alive, lol
Dh has been on vacation for the past 2 weeks which has been great but he is going back to work tomorrow, 3rd shift, my least favorite. I hate being home alone and he'll be on this until Sept. 1
The summer heat is major here. It's been intolerable to be outside, even in the shade. It's been even harder because we don't have central a/c. We have 1 small window unit in the living room and 1 fan that we move between the living room and the kids bedrooms. Is it Sept yet??
I've also been going for breast augmentation consults. I'm tired of being saggy @ 28yrs old. Between my kids & my hysterectomy it would bound to happen but I'm going to fight back. I found a dr I like and who will do both my implants & lift in 1 surgery. The lift will end up making me a B cup which for me is just to small, Before kids I was a DD so there is no way that being a B is for me. The implants I choose put me between a D and a small DD. They looked really good. I was approved for a loan yesterday and have surgery set for Sept 6 as of right now. So long as dh can take some vacation time I'm good to go. I must admit I'm terrified & excited at the same time. I was less scared about my hysterectomy, not sure why that is.
Other than that not much going on here. Have to call my p/tdoc and see if the base actually faxed my lithium results to her. I'm going to be very mad if they didn't and it turns out like last time where I had to go get them because they can't do their jobs properly.
Oh

Nice to hear from you, Danielle. Hang in there! I know all about no hubby on those 3rd shifts. I have learned to live on my own, but nights can get lonely. They seem alot longer too.
I didn't know about your plans for surgery. Good luck to you & keep us posted. (((hugs))) jan
I'm with you on the shift work, Danielle. Don't you hate how it changes periodically? I wish they'd just pick something and stick with it! My DH works days and nights quarterly--three months on days, three months on nights.
About your chunky kitty, my girls have the same problem. Athena is 14 pounds, and Venus is 15. I have a hard time getting them to lose weight--even on the Science Diet Light. It's not like you can give a cat Slim-Fast, you know? :)
I hope September arrives quickly for you, especially w/no central a/c.
Hope your doc does his/her job. That's so frustrating. I waited forever on a reimbursement b/c I was overcharged and didn't realize it. Ended up showing up at the doc's office asking for it, in fact.
Good luck w/your breast augmentation. Sounds like you've done your research and will be very happy w/the results. :)
Stay cool!

Thanks Kendra,
My dh switches between 1st, 2nd & 3rd shift every 45 days. It's so annoying. When we first got here it was every 3 months, then every 2 and now this.

Danielle, I'm so excited for you. I didn't know you were taking out a loan, tho - what happened with tricare? I wish I was as brave as you - I'd love to do the same!

I can "hear" the enthusiasm in your voice, I'm so happy for you! My dh promised me a lift and implants if I brastfed our 4 y.o. ds. I'm just too chicken to do it. My best friend did it, and is so happy with the results! Maybe after you share your experience I'll get up the courage to go for a consult!
