Sick and Tired of being sick and tired

Well as of today I have been down with a kidney infection for about 5 days. This has seriously been one of the most NON fun and exciting experiences of my life! My lower back had starting hurting early last week, My and my amazing abilities of rationalization had me thinking it was just me standing funky while at work. Well Saturday Morning I woke up with a low blood sugar of 46 (regular blood sugar levels should be 70-120) so I was all sorts of tired and felt like crud and yet again rationalized it away as the "low blood sugar took a lot out of me". Then later on in the day all I wanted to do was sleep, and so I took a nap. The day progressed I had no appetite and if I took the blankets off of myself I would shake uncontrollably. And then I rationalized that I was getting sick, but it must just be a 24 hour bug. Woke up Sunday morning and felt like crud, I hurt ALL over, had a headache, and was nauseous. Michael got home and asked what we thought we should do, I said go to the doctor. He was all set wanted to take me right away but I refused and made him let me take a shower :) Yeah I know I'm smart. . .

Well long story short I went to the doctor, gave a urine sample, and was offer a script for antibiotics and some heavy duty pain killers. I took the antibiotics but refused the pain killers, the Doc asked me if I was sure 4 times, but I still refuse. Regardless to say . . .Bad mistake Kidney Infections FLIPPIN' HURT!!

But I am feeling better now :) Still a little woozy, but I am on the mend. It only took 5 days of bed rest, 3 sick days from work, and lots and lots of sprite and water :)

Needless to say I have learned my lesson, and will hopefully be smarter from it haha

Love you all

I found my camera cord !!!

Look SOLD RANSOM!!!! yay my first new car EVER!! I love it!

It's just so pretty. . . .

okay and now onto my lovely new short hair :)

I am loving it! It's so much faster and easier to get ready in the morning. I have the best Hairdresser and friend: April J!! I have NEVER had a bad haircut from her. Love you April :)

okay I'm done. . . Time for bed!

I am ALIVE!!! I know I have been gone for such a long, long time but I swear I will try and be better with this whole blogging thing :) I SWEAR, cross my heart hope to die. . .

So first things first. . .

We bought a new car :) best thing ever!! I'm all sorts of excited :) It's a Dodge Caliber, white with black and gray interior. And it's mine all mine, Michael shall dive it on occasion, on occasion being the key phrase in that sentence.

Also I have chopped all my hair off into a cute little pixie cut, I LOVE it. I will post pics soon but I have lost the cable to my camera and therefore cannot show you at this time :( which is sad because the pictures I took of myself are quite cute.

And also last but not least. . I am seriously thinking about going back to school. But I cannot decide. . Back to nursing school or on th Pharmacy school?! Nursing would take my another 1 1/2 to 2 years, Pharmacy would be 5 to 6 years but I would have a doctorate. SOOOO many decisions.

And last but certainly not least Kat's Wishlist of things I cannot afford. . .

A Nikon D5000 SLR digital camera a meer $650-$700

The Bookworm in me would LOVE a kindle but I'm afraid books available to buy at the touch of a button would become reminiscent of my itunes addiction :)

an Apple Macbook Pro. . yup enough said

The Dear Hunter Act III Vinyl Record- the one I would love for my tiny record collection

and these Pearl Acorn Earrings I found on etsy.com, but i shall stop there because if I start on my Etsy wishlist this post would never end

But all in all I think I shall be okay, I have a new car and all these things can wait for a while :)

Love you all - Kat ;)

I come home from work and. . .

This is what the boys are doing. . . a Kick boxing lesson. It was so cute Aidan loved it, anything that involves martial arts or doing what his dad does is the best thing in his book.

I am not dead! Just thought I'd let you know :)

Well I thought I should probably do my blog :) A great idea if I do say so myself . . .

Life has been crazy busy lately. . Michael has a new job as a Caregiver for two Schizophrenic Guys, in which he works from 4 pm to 8am four to five days a week. Yay for him having a job, but yuck for me never seeing him. And also my Grandfather died at the age of 81 a little bit ago so for a whole week I was just running around like mad (but that's okay). . . and other than that I'm still plugging away at work.

I'm also a little in denial . . I just realized that Aidan starts Kindergarten in the Fall!! He can't be that old already can he?! A little off subject but all the ladies at church see that Ai's almost 5 and so i get asked . . . if I'm pregnant OR if we're having another one. So to clarify, nope no plans for the Ransom Family to add another member (5 months of bed rest just doesn't sound so appealing right now).

Now for Random pictures :)

Michael and I at the zoo . . and our self portrait
Look What I made today!!! I think its pretty cute!
Custom necklace that we had made, I love it sooo much
Grrrrrr. . Aidan and I making faces at the zoo
Look at Ai eating with his chopsticks . . . Yep we're part Asian

I will try to post more now that I have some semblance of normalcy (try being the key word). Thanks for reading guys :)
