Baby gone home

This weekend's excitement had come to an end. Lol, my niece had to go home around noon today because Chris and I had to finish up winterizing the house as well as doing some housework. The experience of having a newborn "baby" around for the weekend didn't really mean as much to me as it did to her. There quite a few times when I know she wanted to just give up, but to her credit, she stuck with it. Luckily the baby wasn't a colic one nor did it fuss too much today. In fact, we had to check it a couple times to make sure the batteries didn't die. I had to fill out a questionaire about her progress with it and I warned her that I was going to be honest in it. So, now she has a little over twelve hours until she has to turn it into the teacher. I really hope that she gets a good grade as she did a good job in my book. Okay, I'm biased a little. Lol.

This morning was so much colder than yesterday. There wasn't as thick a layer of frost on the grass and cars, but the temperature was definitely lower. I really believe we're going to get a small amount of snow here soon. Would not surprise me in the least bit. In fact, it's supposed to rain during the evening tomorrow (hopefully after the trick-or-treaters have gone home for the night). I'm just glad that the majority of the cold air is holding off for whatever reason. I know it could be a lot colder than it is.

I'm feeling okay today. My heart seems to be beating really fast whenever I am doing something physical for more than five minutes, that includes just walking from point A to point B. I have taken my heart medication as I'm scheduled but it's still doing it some. I probably am going to tell the doctor about it tomorrow when I call about getting flu shots. I have never had one before but because the Enbrel lowers the immune system, I have to have one if at all possible. I'm trying to get one from the doctor's office, whether my rheumy or family, because I don't want to go to a flu shot clinic. I just trust the doctor's office more. In fact, I have a female exam coming up next week, well actually a week from this coming Tuesday. Oh, the joys of being a woman! Lol, not particularly something I enjoy but necessary due to my family's medical history. I also just want to be careful.

Well, yes, I know this is semi-short, but I have much to do and not much time to do it in. Having my niece this weekend allowed me to spend some quality one on one time with her and I hope she realizes that she can come to me for any reason. I just had to put a lot of things on the back burner and now I have to catch up. Not that I mind, lol.

Until next time,
Kim
