Happy Humpday!!
Sorry, I didn't post yesterday... I fell behind, I know.
Things on the baby front are going great - My first dr. appt is coming up quick. I'm quite excited. Friday is my last day of work until next Wednesday, so that will be a nice little break. 4 days off from work is always nice.
I'm still looking for "the layout" that I want for this site. I need something flashy and colorful - something that makes me happy when I look at it. Obviously, when I started this post - I was in a gloomy, upseting mood. I had alot of them a while ago and well, it brought me up and helped me if I was able to post on here. So, the reasoning for my "black mood" is now gone and I need to find something else. Especially considering my new life that is laying right in front of me.... that will be changed in oh a short 6 months. (!!!) - Bare with me, I'll find a new layout - hopefully by the end of the day today! -
This past week has brought a rollercoaster of emotions. 1. because I'm pregnant 2. because I'm pregnant 3. because Chris isn't sure how to deal with me ... pretty much, my hormones are completely out of whack. I got angry the other night because he was on the computer, I get angry if I'm doing the dishes and he won't help ... it's stupid, pure stupidity. But, I do'nt realize I'm acting like that - until I lash out on Chris and HE freaks out on ME. We got into quite the argument last Sunday night - it wasn't pretty. It was resolved - but on Monday night, when I got home - I was already aggrivated with him, cause he was on the computer - so I left and went to Barnes and Noble. I needed some therapy.
I ended up bringing home two books - I needed something for me to understand myself, and something for Chris to understand me, and learn how to deal with my irratic lashing out sessions. The two books I found were "I'm Pregnant" by DK books. Excellent Excellent book ... and I looked and looked for a book for Chris .. one that he would be actually interested in reading and one that he could learn from ... and all of a sudden I see the words .. "Pregnancy Sucks - for Men" ... that's it! I read the first few pages about "mood swings" and it was perfect. It's actually a quite hilarious book... He started reading it that night ... :)
Speaking of going to get books .. on my way there, I noticed a terrible clunk clunk clunk clunk clunk in my car ... me being the girl I am, thought it was in the front. I immediately thought - oh god, I have a flat tire... so I pulled into the next restaurant .. got out, and was happy to find - no flat tires! Much to my surprise - I got back in my car and the clunk clunk returned... this time when I was brakeing lightly - then as soon as I'd brake hard it would go away. I then think, oh god - there's something wrong with my car, how am I going to afford this ... of course thinking every possible worse thing. So, I get back home (all in one piece) park in the garage and leave the car for the next morning to work... which is yesterday morning. I drive to work, hear the continuous clunk when I drive and when I break lightly ... I get to work, I'm a little worried now ... What could be wrong.... still no, flat tires...The day at work is done, I get in my car go home .. still the clunk clunks are very easy to hear - only they're getting worse.
I called my dad - he gives me a list of things to check and have Chris check. I get home - we decide to go over to a friends (family friend) and visit. Well the guy (Ivan) - his daughter is my age, and her boyfriend works at Tires Plus - he, being the wonderful person he is - took my car for a drive, took apart my whole back right wheel, looked at the rotors, brakes, calipers, EVERYTHING ... couldn't find anything - took it for a drive again ... he came back and decided he wanted to tackle the back left ... he got over there, started loosening the lug nuts and he stopped, looked at me and says .. uhhh, i found your problem. .. You're tire is about to fall off... I looked at Chris like, Holy Shit!! ... so, he tightened up the lug nuts, and told me to check them again after 100 miles.....
Holy Cow - if i would have went to work today with the clunk clunk still clunking .. i probably would have been stranded on the side of the road with my back left tire, miles ahead of me and my car sitting on 3 ..... and a damaged car.
What would I have done...!!! So, needless to say - the clunk clunk is gone - I feel safe again, and my car is no longer the scary driven thing I thought it was .... Phew!!
Wow that was a long post - okay, I need to get to work now .... Bad me.
I promise, I'll try to have a better layout by the end of the day.... :)
Love to all,
Krystle
