I hated having to miss work two days in a row. My gall bladder has been acting up and if anyone has ever dealt with that, you know how painful that is. I woke up early Tuesday morning with these awful burps, then I started throwing up (tmi, I know), then I felt all bloated and my stomach hurt so much. It was like a searing pain that radiated from the top of my stomach all the way to my back. I went back to sleep around 4:30 am. I just felt so ill on Tuesday that I called in. I have leave but not a whole lot. I’ve only been there 2 months so I felt crappy taking off. But what was I supposed to do. I got an appointment to go to the dr today so I took a sick day. She said she really thinks it’s my gall bladder since all that only happens whenever I eat certain foods (greasy or fatty foods). So I am really going to try to cut back and stay away from stuff that has a lot of grease or fat. Eh, I need to eat better anyway so this will just give me a good reason.

I felt guilty for not going into work though. I mean it’s not like they really needed me, but still. It seems like every since I’ve started working either me or one of the kids gets sick. I just pray that I am able to go to work and build my leave back up. My ultimate goal is to get a job working from home because I think that it would benefit the kids and me. I just have to find something making close to what I’m making now. So if you don’t mind, please pray for me.

On a different note…. My oldest son now has a girlfriend. He’s always had girl friends but this is his first “real” girlfriend. What’s so cool is that his gf’s aunt is one of my mom’s best friends so I’ve known her family for as long as I can remember. She takes dance and she’s home schooled. She lives about 45 minutes away so my son doesn’t get to see her except on the weekend. Well, they talk on skype so I guess they actually do get to see each other in a way. I just can’t believe he’s old enough to have a gf. It seems like just yesterday he was starting school and playing with Hot Wheels. Now he’s all about girls and Xbox lol.
