Yes it is.
So it's been quite a while. I'll do a brief quick hits. I'm not really playing sims 2 or 3 though I want to get back into the swing. Things that have happened in brief.
I was depressed for a few months after the miscarriage, but I'm better now.
In early December my husband and I rescued a juvenile cat abandoned around our buildings. She's a total sweetie and gets along remarkably well with our older (9 and 11) year old cats so we're keeping her on the sly. I'll post a pic spam as soon as a get a new picture editing software on this computer.
Then Christmas Eve my Mother-in-law's house was broken into. Luckily only the Xmas presents and her electronics were stolen. I say luckily because one of her five cats and the dog was missing for a day (cat was hiding under a corner of the house and the dog returned on her own thankfully) and she's got a lot of jewelry, but they didn't manage to get into the bedroom before the police were alerted.
Then in January I though I might have been pregnant again. Vomiting, nausea, all the classic signs, but I found out after going to the emergency care unit yesterday that it was an abscess causing the disturbance. That was drained and I have a large hole in my thigh that has to scar over. Hopefully they got it all out in one visit because I do not want to have to be put under for a follow up visit.
I did the surgery sans pretty much any drugs. They tried to numb me, but the exact location is hard to access. My husband instead held my hand and I did a lot of screaming and mouth breathing. It wasn't the first abscess I've had to have removed and it was messing with my health.
I'm on drugs right now though. I forget what, but yeah, some good drugs I guess? I don't know, I'm really clear headed, but I can't move around much so my husband is working from home to help me. It's frustrating. I get sick a lot, but usually I'm mobile and able to care for myself, but this isn't the kind of thing I can get done and then be cool the next day.
And that irritates me.
I shall now channel my inner She-ra or something and work on getting better. I itch to play Sims 3 on my new PC and see all the awesome things Pets brought to the table. Perhaps I'll channel Jem instead and decorate someone's house 'outrageously' or something.
I hope things are going well for all of you. Sorry for dropping off the radar again.
