Nibbs XVI (Page 23)

D001 - 2008-03-05 6:11 AM Have you noticed that it's 2 PM and I am on BT???????? Yes, this marks the beginning of my "attitude adjustment." I've worked 80 hrs/week for 2 months, and just fell behind, anyway. So, I've decided to go back to a fairly normal/reasonable schedule. (Please remind me of this, if/when I start to put in all those extra hours again! LOL) Yay for BT! Yay for Nibbs! (Boo for too much work at werk!)

Dee!!! Im SO SO SO proud of you! Its nice to see you on BT during the day (even though Im not here) and you have been so much fun to chase around the challenge forum in the evenings!

I hope that you gain back some sanity from the change

Well that breaks up the me talking to myself!!!

Hi Kendra!

I can talk!  I made dinner - angel hair pasta with shrimp, green peppers, and red peppers in a yogurt sauce.  It was a new recipe but it was good.

What are boys always grumpy? 

Boys are always grumpy????

Maybe not always.  My husband's been really grumpy about work for the past few weeks.  It's annoying. 

We're...I mean...boys are just wired that way...

Us guys don't open up and let it all out...we hold it in...and then we explode!

hmmm....

so its just like a faulty circuit or something?

Seriously ... I think boys have far worse PMS than women do.

[Nibbs rant] I feel like I'm suffering ... REALLY bad time of the month. I have a choice between this, or, if on hormonal birth control, having an unpredictable but severe migraine or two a month (will wipe me out for a day or two each).

Every few years I swap options, forget how bad the other was, and swap back.

YUCK!!!!!

I hear ya - I get the works, cramps, upste stomach, tiredness, grumpiness, bloating, trouble sleeping... oh and it causes my stomach condition to act up....

The closest ive come to a solution is avoid salt and sugar in the lead up (hard because i get wicked cravings) and some light exercise... hard to get motivated when tired, crabby and in pain...

When I couldnt take ibuprofen at all - well that was a killer because that at least took the edge off the cramps!

Hang in there!!!

I was having the same problem.  I'm finally on a pill that seems to be better.  I still get the migraines, but they don't last as long and they aren't as bad. 

Yeah...that seems to be the case.  It's just frustrating when it feels like he's taking it out on me. 

Oh I know a man like that.... made me feel crap on a refular basis and was always having a go at me despite all my efforts...

Turns out a lot of it was him choosing to take work stuff out on me...

Hope its just a temporary thing Jen!

Yeah, I think I remember seeing that in another thread or maybe your log. *sympathy* I can't imagine how horrible it would be without ibuprofen, too.

x2. Poor fellows--and they usually are as clueless about WHY they're grumpy or blowing up as we are.

I don't think he means to do it...it just happens when he doesn't talk very much.  I'm making this sound wrong and I really don't mean to.  

Yaaaay Beth

I just had a moment of gratitude--realized I can't possibly feel as bad as you do, poor pookie!!

At least i can take it now - some because it gives me nausea... oh well cant win them all!

But exercise definatley helps a lot! (although not neccesarily the intense stufF)

How are you feeling? Did yuo find a doc?

Testosterone overload...

Its ok.. it would be hard if he isnt talking to you... yuo cant help but feel a little neglected...

You GET to run - you lucky girl - after being laid up with injury for so long!
