Feeling Crappy

Posted Thursday, May 15, 2008 2:49 PM

I am feeling awful today. I have the worst cramps ever, and Ibuprofen doesn't seem to be touching the pain. Work is a little slow, so that just exacerbates the pain because I have nothing to distract me. I tried to drink some tea with Dong Quai (supposed to help with cramps), and that helped some. On the plus side, no migraine.

Our anniversary turned out nice, and quiet. DH has been gone so much lately, that even just cuddling on the couch was a welcome change. Watched Top Chef together last night. Funny, because neither of us really gets into reality shows, but my mom turned me on to this show. DH just started watching with me a couple weeks ago, and he is hooked. Personal fave is Richard. I think he is one of the most consistent chefs on the show. And I want half of his food!

 I can't wait to go home tonight. DH will be gone again. I have a new book (Emily Giffin's latest) I love chick lit. I might read a little, and maybe scrapbook a little. I got some good deals at Target on supplies yesterday. Either way, I will be relaxing on the couch willing the pain away. This has been the one downside to quitting BC.

Couple more hours...counting down the minutes.

re: Feeling Crappy

I remember my first month off BC, it sucked so bad I wanted to go back on it just to never feel that crappy again. BUT good news is that the cramps have seem to lessen in intencity since then, at least for me and I hope so for you too!

Emily Giffen is such a great author. For chick lit I love her, Jennifer Weiner, and Sophie Kinsella. I will definitely have to check out her newest book. Sometimes Target does have some great deals of scrapbooking supplies, I got the cutest 12X12 album there a couple weeks ago. Have fun tonight with those activities and I hope the cramps get better!

I don't read anything that anyone else reads.  I just bought a book 2 days ago and haven't had time yet to read.  Although, it is more for entertainment in the plane.  The Chris Farley Show.  I bet no one on the nest will read it, except me :P  

I hope you get over your cramps too.  They suck!!!

Ermimac, have you been hiding from me?  I haven't seen one of your posts in a long time  :(

I understand the cramps.  Since I got off BCP mine have been miserable as well.  The one thing that I have found that DOES work is Midol.  Hope you feel better!!
