Please, somebody, help me out here. I can't find any information, and the FDA has their heads in the sand, saying that the melamine, now found in US infant formula, is safe. This is the product that killed 4 Chinese infants and made over 50,000 more very ill. It causes kidney problems and can lead to kidney failure. I can't find anything more ( Read more... )

I just got word that I'll be student teaching this fall, which puts me back on schedule for graduating in December. Owing to the hospitalization, I was late getting the necessary paperwork in, but thanks for the kind hearted personnel at UTC, I should be back on track.
So again....huzzah!

Oh my God!!!! This is hilarious!

As I sit here, with my daughter asleep on my chest, I look at the clock and realize that in twelve hours, she will be a week old. It's amazing how far she has come in seven days. We went to the pediatrician today, who said she was doing great. She weighs five pounds twelve ounces, which is less than her birth weight but still expected. She ( Read more... )

And beside me, in a tiny bassinette, is a little girl sleeping. She's wearing a pink newborn gown, which swallows her whole. Rachel Danielle Matthews was born on March 14, 2008 at 4:22 in the afternoon. The night before I started having weird pains in my stomach, and the next morning (on my mother's birthday) we had another daily ultrasound. ( Read more... )

Watched many hours of Project Runway today; was pleased with the outcome. I actually began to enjoy Wendy Pepper and her work by the end. Strange. But after sleeping over eighteen hours, I took three Benadryl last night for the sting, I awoke at two thirty. So my day was pretty much shot anyway, and so I figured why not enjoy it? I had to take ( Read more... )

If you have never watched Bridezilla, you should. These chicks are crazy! This crazy woman I'm watching now has taken out a second mortgage on her home in order to have a wedding in a castle. I have to confess that if you need to take out a second mortgage in order to get married, then I'd say you probably need to go with a small wedding. Hmmm.

God, this was a day that I hate being such a girl. I found a kitten outside yesterday, in the rain. She was soaked, and she was young enough that her eyes hadn't opened up fully. I think she had wandered away from her mother by accident once her eyes had opened slightly, and then she couldn't find her way back. I'm not sure. But I took her ( Read more... )

Gah! I just finished filling out the FAFSA, and I hate doing that kind of thing. Feeling overwhelmed with numbers and information right now, and I am hating it. On a brighter note, I made spaghetti tonight, and it was delicious. I've started being more adventurous with my cooking; I even added some spices. Huge step for me ( Read more... )
