Not Good

Today is not a good day. If you would like to skip my rant, feel free to come back tomorrow when I promise to post pictures of my children and a 2 sentence story.

I threw up this morning. I threw up while taking a medication that is supposed to make me not throw up. A medication that is supposed to help with the nausea but isn't.

While I was throwing up, I had to break up a fight between my children.

Mid-spew.

All food seems gross.

Any liquid makes me gag.

I was watching the presidential debate and saw Obama take a drink of water and I wanted to hit him! I am so thirsty but drinking just makes me feel worse.

I have tried exercising but that makes it worse, too.

I used to be able to walk ET to school in under 10 minutes. Now it takes me over 15 because all the jostling makes me feel worse.

If I can't reach a nurse tomorrow, I am going to stop taking the Zofran. Because it isn't helping with the nausea, and being constipated sucks. That's right, not only is it not helping with the original problem, it is creating a new one!

I try to go to sleep early but if I get woken up, I am sick all over again. And TV is not that interesting at 3am.

I think I am done now. I'd better go to bed.

Unicorns and rainbows tomorrow...if I am feeling better.

I'm so sorry. Hopefully you can make that unicorn a bit more constipated than that medication is making you. And at the end of your rainbow is a day without any spewing. Have your hubby build a velcro wall you can throw your kids up on to keep them safe, secure and out of arms reach of each other!

So sorry you're feeling so icky. That's no fun at all. I'll be hoping you get past this morning sickness thing uber early--like today.
