This week has been busy for us. Brian was very busy with homework and a few meetings. He's been staying up until after midnight to get homework done for the past three days. I've been sick this entire week with a sinus infection and I'm finally getting over it. This morning I was coughing so hard and my stomach was a little qweezy. So after coughing hard enough I finally threw up and I hate the throwing up feeling of not being able to breath. Yuck.
Well, anyway this week with my new job at The Guesthouse has been great so far. My general manager has been great so far and I think her and I will get along nicely. I enjoy working with her and she's fun to visit with. We had a manager meeting with the other dept. managers on thursday. My gm mentioned in the meeting that she doesn't want anyone that works here from now on to be related to anyone or friends of anyone. I had tears in my eyes. I was thinking, "Thank you, at least someone has some sense around here." It was great.
Brian and I have the weekend off together and I don't remember the last time we had a weekend off together. We don't know what to do with ourselves! I think we might go to a movie tonight or just stay home to relax. We'll see, relaxing sounds nice and I have so much cleaning to catch up on after being sick. Now I get to be sick of cleaning. It never ends huh?

Qweezy feeling.
Today I had to work 7am-3pm at the super 8 and we are so short staffed that I had to work the breakfast room and front desk at the sametime. By 9am (half hour before breakfast was over) I started to feel dizzy and a slight sour stomach. My first thought was "Ah, I know what to do, I'm just going to have some crackers I brought and some plain dry toast." I started to eat both to try to calm my stomach down, but of course, it didn't work. I was getting the morning sickness and working in the breakfast room with the smell of fresh waffles was making it worse. Plus I saw one guest eating the rest of the raw waffle batter from her cup she used to pour out her batter onto the griddle. Once I saw that, I wanted throw-up. Why do people do that?! Yuck!
I talked to my manager (being she was never around this morning) and told her that I closed up the desk for 20 minutes for me to sit in the bathroom with my head between my legs to maybe calm my head down from spinning. She said "Oh you must be getting sick finally, well I better get going." What, you crazy old woman?!? I need to go home or I will throw up all over in the breakfast room and then she can clean it up. Anyway, 3pm couldn't come fast enough and when I arrived home I said "Hi honey, love you, and goodnight."
I tried to explain to Brian that I wasn't feeling well and I feel like I'm going to hurl but why do men insist on more and more questions? Just leave me alone and let me sleep it off. Oh and get me some chicken noodle soup. :-) Brian was just trying to understand what I was feeling and asking how my day went. But I described my feeling of being sick like your worst hangover ever. I was light headed, little dizzy and I wanted to throw up but it never came. He said "Ohhhhh," and the look on his face was "eee, that's not good." So hopefully he understands now that it's not fun and yes I just want to throw up but it's not happening.
It's now 6:30pm and I woke up about 30 minutes ago and I'm feeling so much better. I still have a little bit of a sour stomach but it's now more of I'm hungry, but for what? Oh right, Chicken noodle soup and grilled cheese. Brian is at the grocery store getting some soup. :-) He's so nice.

Ugh, more shopping.
After getting my new job, I looked in my closet and noticed that, "Wow, I really have some old stuff in here and, I guess I still could wear some of this." Brian told me to go shopping today since I had the day off of work. He said "Go get what you need and have fun." I think I should have been really happy that my husband just told me to go spend money on myself and to have fun while doing it, but the truth is, I don't like shopping. So, he knows I probably won't spend a lot of money. So he's safe that I'm not a Carrie Bradshaw with a love shoes and just wanting to shop to feel a void of a bad day.
After shopping for about 3 hours which is a new record for me, I found some good deals at Tj Max and Ross (another tj max type store), and Target. I even found a pair of dress pants at TJ Max that are just long enough and they were from the Limited and only $16! Wow, what a find for me! I was so excited.
As soon as I arrived home, I told Brian that we need to top off my night by useing the gift card mom & dad gave us for the Olive Garden. I really wanted some Tiramasu. I remember talking to my doctor about any tips on what to start eating and she said Fish is really good for you and baby but only once a week. I gasped because I'm not much of any type of a seafood lover, but once a week I may be able to handle. As we were eating our soup and salad before the main meal, I think my eyes looked hazy or I looked a little pale because Brian asked "Are you o.k?" I said I feel nauses or light headed. Being the sweet guy he is, he immediatly scanned the restaraunt for the bathroom just in case I needed to make a break for it. I remember this has happened before and I was just eating to fast (but it was sooo good) to take it all in at once, so I slowed it down and everything went away slowly. Thank goodness it went away because I was a little excited to try my main meal which was some fish I ordered called Talapia. I really liked it, and the meal was just right and not too filling like the pasta meals I usually get there. I really recommend it if anyone goes there soon. Very good. Since the fish wasn't really filling, then I did get my Tiramasu. :-D
After our meal and our bill arrived, I told Brian that I had a neat tip to give our friendly waitress. I told him that I remember growing up, my dad giving our waiters or waitress a $2.00 bill(with the rest of the tip, if needed) when we went out to eat because we really don't see them often. I always thought that was neat and I recently came upon a $2.00 bill the other day. I thought I would give it to her being my day and night was so fun and she was so nice and the service was excellent.
As we left, and stopped at a intersection to turn right onto a main street, we felt a hard bang! Great, someone just rear ended us. The poor girl who hit our car was freaking out and kept saying "I'm so sorry." There was no or very little damage, all we had on our bumper is some small paint smudges from her license plate which you can hardly see at all. It's just some dark blue on our black bumper. No big deal really, nothing cracked or broken and everyone is fine. We told the poor shook up girl, who looked like she just ended her shift at the restaraunt, it's ok and all we need is some touch up paint and no worries. I just told her she's lucky that it could have been worse and she ran into us and not someone really up tight about their vehicle. Things happen and it wasn't worth reporting or replacing a bumper over a scuff.
So where did this Karma come from to deserve to get rear ended? Did I take to much joy or happiness that I found so many deals today and found things that actually fit right? Next time I find more deals and I love what I found, I'll remember to stay home.

Due Date
Today I found out our due date for the little one. The Doctor says our date should be April 14th. So, now it's getting more and more exciting! Also, everything is going fine and baby is fine.
I also found out today I got the job at the Guesthouse Inn & Suites as the Director of Sales and Marketing. I'm a little nervous about it but it's a nice step up and a great change from the crazy Super 8! I work tommorow and I can't wait to tell her that I quit! It's going to be a huge weight off of my shoulders I think. Awwww. Nice.
