Home from Thanksgiving in South Dakota with my parents and family. It was very nice to see everyone. I got to spend time with two of my brothers and SIL. It was great to see them. My neice and her hubby came with their new baby, Samuel. I have us all unpacked and now I am heading to bed. I need some sleep!!!! Tommy didn't sleep well last night at all at my parents.
Tommy, Me and my great nephew, Samuel.

Well we are nearly packed to head to SD, but now to decide if we will really go. Sometimes I wonder if i am getting alot of signs that we shouldn't go!! They started on tuesday......I witnessed a car accident down in Burnsville, right next to me the lady rear ended the car in front of her..TWICE!!
Yesterday in the Thanksgiving traffic on 35 E south, the traffic in front of me stopped, but the guy behind me wasn't paying attention. I quickly drove onto the shoulder so he missed my truck. Luckily he drove into the ditch since he was going too fast. the car behind him also had to drive into the ditch. ARGH.....I had a very severe car accident right before a planned trip to SD in March 2004. THe guy waved and drove out of the ditch and was on his merry way. ARGH!!
Now..the third thing....Erik has been vomitting all night he says, but he seems ok now. He is not a great reporter so who knows. But I sure don't want to be in a car for 6 hours with a barfing kid!
So it is still up in the air if we will be going. Argh.........Always something. If we stay here I have nothing for Thanksgiving since we hadn't planned on being here. I haven't been home to SD in over a year and really should go!

Well the predisone is from a different manufactor so that is why it looks different, but glad I checked on it. So I took it and was on my merry way.
I am wondering it my hubby will take me to two holiday concerts this year. We are seeing the Trans Siberian Orchestra, but my friend sings in the Twin Cities Gay Men's Chorus and I really want to see that concert too! I hope he will go with me to the matinee.
Off to get some work done....later!

Last work day of the week. YEAH!! The office should be pretty quiet so I should get alot done. I have a home visit at 3:45 then I will head home. After work I am going to the chiropractor and to get my nails done. Then it is home to pack to go to South Dakota for Thanksgiving.
I am unsure about the new med the Dr gave me. I had the pharmists look back in my records and I took that med when I came out of the hospital in 2003. I have trouble with my heart after that and was eventaully taken off of the advair by the pulmonologist. I didn't fill the script, but am trying the sample to see how it makes me feel. I went to take the predisone that I picked up last night and it doens't look right. I have that 20 mg of predisone many times and it is always a tiny white pill, these are big pink ones. So I have to stop at the pharmacy before going to work to make sure it is even the right med. I rather be cautious, especially since we are going out of town tomorrow morning.
Off to shower and get ready for work.....Later!

Short week and very busy again. I was going to skip my Dr appointment this morning, but since I had waited for a month to see my asthma Dr I figure I better go. He is all concerned about my control of my asthma....if he thinks this is bad he should have seen me last month! I think I am doing much better.....I have to see him in a week again for him to review how my meds are working.
So I am back on a high high dose of predisone for the fourth time!! I will have to deal with the side effects of that med again for a while. I am so hungry on this med and gain so much weight! I told him and he said, yes, that is a very common side effect. So I guess once this is over I will have to workout alot! I sometimes experience insomnia too and clean my house the entire night. But the last 3 rounds this hasn't happened. I jsut eat us out of house and home!
So the new regimen of meds include....
Advair (new drug have used in past)
Pulmicort
Singular
Zyrtec
Rhinocort
Xopenex - PRN
Atrovent - PRN
Albuterol - PRN
Predisone
Gee does it look like they are over medication my asthma!! YIKES!! SO this is the new guess on medication and I will see the specialist again in one week. As he said, his main goal is to keep me out of ICU. I so don't have time for this, but then again I don't have time to be sick either! I am actually hoping that the predisone will give me insomnia this time around so I can get some work done in those wee hours of the morning. It comes in handy!

Tommy woke up 4 times last night so I am wiped out! We did make it to church though. After church we went to Joanne Fabircs to use my 40% off coupon. I got a present for Erik. We tried to stop at Half Price books but Tommy kept saying his tummy hurt so we left. He fell asleep on the way home and is still napping.
I made french toast, scrambled egg and sausage for lunch. Josh and Amy are now doing dishes before Josh has to go to work. I think I am going to take a little nap then I will clean up the house a bit. I wrapped most of our xmas presents last night. It was great to get that done. I am nearly done with all my shopping.
Tonight I will be making wild rice soup for supper. Enjoy your day.
