Feeling a bit Dizzy

I think I might have caught a bug. I have been feeling a bit dizzy today. I hope that it goes away before 7:00pm. Jerry and I are supposed to go to a movie screening tonight for Slumdog Millionaire at Southdale for Best Buy. I'm worried that I will be able to make it to the post office at this point.
You know, one of the best things about being able to stay home all day is all the old movies on cable that I wouldn't be able to see if I had to work all day. Today, I was able to watch First Night, Forever Young, and yesterday I watched Big Momma's house.
I talked to Sunni today after she got home from the doc. Turns out that she's dialated to 1cm, and they stripped her membranes again today! Hopefully, that means that things will get moving in the next few days. This is all too exciting.
On the adoption front I haven't heard anything new from our Social Worker, but she's still got a couple of days left until the end of the week. I'm still holding out hope that she'll come through.

100

Without even realizing it I have reached 100 posts in this blog. I never thought I would ever get there. It's not like I was trying to reach 100 posts, but it's satisfiying none the less.
Today has been a pretty boring day here at my house. My nose was a bit runny so I didn't use my CPAP last night and I can really tell. I am so tired today. I can't tell if it's because the cold has whiped me out or if it's because I didn't get great sleep last night.
Also, this morning I started out my day with a piece of cheesecake. It was yummy, but all day long I have been eating it feels like. I know that if I eat too much sugar then that's all I crave. Even after knowing that I still can't help it. I wish I had stronger willpower. I ask GOD for it in my prayers everynight, but it seems that I need to learn to create it on my own.

Happy Birthday To Me

I had a great birthday, with one tiny hiccup. So, I woke up to discover that I am coming down with a cold. My nose was runny and my head was a little plugged feeling. I didn't let that stop me though. I went to lunch with my mom at D Michael B's and then Melanie stopped by to give me a birthday gift. She got me some aqua globes to put in my plants. I think I need a few more and all of my plants will have them. Then, I can be even more lazy. Then Jerry got home with the most beautiful pink roses and a cake. So, I opened my gifts and then we went to dinner. I ate way too much food and I have leftovers for lunch. We got home, had pumpkin cheesecake and watched a movie. I did play a little with my new video camera, which was one of my gifts from my husband. It's really small, like the size of a digital camera, but it has a 3" LCD screen that swivals. It's great! I asked for one on my Christmas list. Once I figure out how everything works I will post some videos up here.
So, all in all I think I had a great birthday this year. My mother-in-law and I were talking last night and we realized that when Jerry and I met she was 33, which is the same age as I just turned. It's crazy to me that she had two teenagers and a 12 year-old at my age. My life could have turned out so different then it did. WOW...

Layoffs?

Today was an aweful day. First, I wake up at 1:51am with a terrible headache. Then, I feel crappy enough that I stay home from work. I am dozing on the couch when the Director of my department at work calls with an HR lady to tell me that I have been laid-off. Great, there was no warning at all that they would be doing layoffs. I only get 2 weeks of severance and all the vacation I haven't yet taken. It's a bunch of crap. It's all because of the economy, they said. I am going to wallow for a day, then it's on to working on finding a new gig.
