Today we got a call that my blood work revealed I had a Potassium level of 7.8 and needed to go to the ER right away, as it can cause heart deformities. So we go to ER, go to pediatric ward, and I get hooked up to an IV, an EKG (Hey, my LJ namesake!), blood pressure monitors, the works. But I got to watch 13 Going on 30 for like the 475384th time ( Read more... )

I babysit two girls (one is two, the other is 5 months). I leave the older one alone for a minute or so while I fix formula for the baby. When I come back, she's crouched in a corner with a guilty look on her face. When I ask her what was going on...she says, "I had to go potty..." Her diaper is leaking like crazy. Even though it was kinda gross, I ( Read more... )

We still haven't heard from the doctors. Maybe it's nothing bad. I mean, they would've called if it was something bad, right ( Read more... )

Today my grandpa was walking down the sidewalk and just passed out. Luckily he didn't hit his head, but he got scraped up. My mom took him to the doctor and they did some tests, but they said he needed an CAT scan done...

I hope it's nothing, but please keep him in your thoughts.

It's funny now, but it was really creepy at the time. I'm also reading a novel entitled It's Kind of a Funny Story. I can't ( Read more... )

I bought my books...half are from Burke's, the other half are from Amazon.

OH, and you can get the Business book for WAYYYY CHEAPER (for about $20 or so) on Amazon. Just a heads up.

And I feel like some ice cream.

Happy Fourth!

I love fireworks, I'm just like a little kid when it comes to colorful TNT.

Hope everyone had fun!

At first, I was against the new uniforms, because I love our little pop-overs and have no problem keeping my shirt tucked in ( Read more... )

The swelling's gone, the stitches are dissolving...Another day and I should be back to normal.

I just saw this video. I have never laughed so hard. It's got this Japanese guy dressed like the biker from the Village People enticing people with, what else?, pelvic thrusts and hip shakes to go to a ramen shop. Oh so helpful!

I'm still a little sore and swollen, but I'm okay. I think the swelling is starting to go down, thank God. I'm sick of looking like a chipmunk ( Read more... )
