Why I have been so quiet lately....
One long hospital stay...and that is why I am so quiet lately, on the journal, bb, and on the phone- I am so sorry! Apparently someone is born to be a soccer player and has a hell of kick. I just spent the past week and a half in hospital bed rest. It was horrible and I hope to never have to do it again. Little Angus has a kick that can well, crack bones. He is just so tall that he lodged himself right under the ribs with his little hands on one side and his big ol' feet on the other. It was my fault- I ate spicy artichoke dip. *sigh* He liked it so much he did somersaults and bruised my lower rib with his little foot. Unfortunately for both of us, I couldn't stand up straight because it hurt and lost my appetite which is why the hospital made me stay.
Yes I know- I stub my foot and I want it in a cast... I burn my finger tip and wrap my arm up till the elbow- but I swear to you this: I have never felt anything like this before. I was laughing and crying at the same time. Laughing because I finally felt him really move!! *YAY!* Crying because it hurt like a biatch lol.
Anyways- the Doctors are amazing and they hooked me up to tubes to help with feeding. I just can't keep anything down and because of a sickness I had years ago, dehydration and infections are like hand in hand with me. So I was dehydrated as well, and got this infection which they cleared up with infant anti biotics. Thats what I call them- they said they won't harm the baby and that is all I cared about.
They put my name in print. Its in the Restaurant and Institution Magazine- the Ivy Award winners edition. It was so weird lol. Usually it just says the pastry chef and never a name. But this time it said Pastry Chef *insert my whole name here!!!* and went on to talk about this box I make from chocolate for rings and things lol. I was giddy and my ego went to a 12 lol. It felt magical *grin*
ok so thats me in a nutshell. Now I am back to getting thank you cards out because its past the "I am just a procrastinator" and full fledged- "I am embarrassed" that its taking me so long *sigh*
