Voting For The Good

Since it's Presidents' Day I can bring up the subject of voting. I wish to vote against feeling ill! I vote for a Super Pill to be created. And lastly I vote to have all of the answers. Just let me know where the polling will be held.

On Valentines Day I had another appointment with a Neurologist. This guy was close and therefore would be alot more convenient than Dr. S.D.. My appointment was at 2:30, so J was going to get off of work a tad early and get M from school. I felt horrible that day, with much pain. It was a good day to go to the doctors. The doctor came in the room and he was a good looking guy, he reminded me of Patrick Demsey. We started talking and he kept saying surgery this and that. Mid-way though our conversation I looked at him and said, "I thought only Neurosurgeons can do those surgeries", he looked at me strange and said "I AM a Neurosurgeon!". My witty reaction was, "huh?". Nice going, I firmly believe that NO doctor should ever have to explain what is speciality is at an office visit. How embarrassing, was I really this out of it? I do have an explanation to why I thought he was only a Neurologists. It turns out that has a brother who is a Neurologist, with the same 1st initial and last name. I thought I made an appointment to see his brother. There was no way to try and turn this around. So I just left.

The next day I still felt pretty bad. It knew it was the calm before the storm. Since we have decide to look for a house to buy, I went out with the realtor on Thursday. I felt kid of weird as I got in her car. We drove around to look at 5-6 houses. I felt alittle car sick going back and forth. I used to get carsick a long time ago, but haven't in a while. As we left the last house to return home we were talking and all of the sudden as she pulled onto the highway I threw up! Thankfully in my jacket but out of no where. She pulled over and I must have thrown up 5 more times on the side of the road. How horrible! I got back in the Cadillac and apologized, I was so sorry! She was very nice about it. I have not thrown up in over 7 years. At least before M was born. After I was fine and laid down when I came home. I remembered that the Neurosurgeon gave me muscle relaxers to take 3 times a day. I started it on Wednesday night and also took one Thursday morning. I called the pharmacy and spoke with the pharmacists. She said it might be the added medication, alot of my pills have the same side effect of dizziness and therefore that one might have been the one that set me over the top. I was late to help at school but went again on Friday. I had this on and off sick feeling. As I'm writing this I just thought that it might be the new sleeping medication I started the week before. Who knows, but I hate feeling like this.

On Saturday J, M and I went to go look at more homes. We as looking for a very specific home. We have moved quite a bit since we have been married. J used to stay with me at my place when we 1st met. Then we moved in together and bought our first place shortly after. We moved from Co to NM then to DE (we moved twice there), and now to our current home. We know what we are looking for: sq footage, neighborhood, J's commute, M's school. None of the areas we looked felt right. Did we want a pool or no pool? We also searched over 300 properties online. We were almost home on Saturday and we went to look at 3 new communities here. The 1st one too big, the next one too small. The 3rd one was it!! Right when we drove in, it was lovely. We got to see different Lots and we knew. We came home and looked the floor plans over. We saw 2 models, but the one we liked did not have a model. That said I loved the neighborhood, the commute would be the same for J and M would go to the same school. We know what we need as far as space and even though we didn't physically see 300 homes we fell in love. I would love the feeling knowing that we were home.
