Nausea. Nausea and sporadic, severe stomach cramps with no other problems. I don’t know what this is, but I don’t like it. Happened Monday, then I thought I was over it. Ate a BLT after the gym Tuesday morning and was fine. For hours. And then I wasn’t. AT ALL. However, since there are no other symptoms, and Lindsey gave me some anti-nausea pills, I’m taking a wait-and-see attitude. Those of you who I’ve promised to put in my will? I didn’t. So get that gleam out of your eyes.
My hair is so terrible I refuse to look at myself in the mirror. I have an appointment for a cut on Thursday. This little stomach thing had BETTER NOT interfere.
Speaking of getting my hair did…
Lynne went out of town for a few days on business, and we got to keep Minute and Sparky at Camp Compound. Those of you who know of Margot’s very emo, get-the-hell-away-from-me-you-freak personality (she may or may not take after me) might be surprised, but she and Minute played hard every morning. Outside. In the dirt. And Minute is white. Or she’s supposed to be. Then in the afternoons, Minute played hard with Pixie and Rex. In the dirt. With the addition of Pixie saliva.
Would you let a friend come back to find two fuzzy mudpies at the end of the leash (Hi, Jeffrey!)? I thought not.
After the groomer:
Minute following a shampoo and comb-out, and Little Blind Sparky following a full grooming. Sparky was SO PLEASED with himself! Minute hated her bow. In spite of being little and white and fuzzy, Minute thinks she is a wolf. She does not want to be cute and pink.
Bonus photos, because you’re nice and will patiently allow me to try to sleep off this pestilence (Hi, Greg!) and so not do a Hump Day Happy post for a few hours.
Guinness ponders whether or not she will ever get another meal. Margot denounces as slanderous any implication that she ever plays.
Pixie is happy to demonstrate a playful attitude. Rex watches over his harem. And would also like a ride in the CAR! please.
Sometimes doggies are my favorite people. Took Mlle Renee for her walk today and since I never take her for a ride on my bus, she considered abandoning me for a concreter with a big macho truck. He was one of the workmen who are relocating the main street of my fair little suburban city. Once the street is relocated, they’re going to build a retail and office parkway. Naturally featuring a Drury Inn, yet another Walgreen Drug Store, a White Castle and a Taco Bell.
A natural fix for nausea is ginger in any of its forms. I always keep a pack of ginger chew candies around. Works unbelievably fast.
Ginger kind of bothers me. Though I do have ginger essential oil and could put it on my pulse points. Lindsey did suggest ginger tea last night, but I’m not big on herbal teas.
Keep an eye on Renee–she’s a big flirt!
She only flirts after I introduce her and tell her they’re good people. However, she will never accept people wearing hoodies and low hanging pants as good people. Must be a hangover from her puppyhood days on the street.
Gorgeous picturs – wonderful how expressive their faces are!
Hope you’ll be feeling better soon. *hug*
Thank you for the get well wishes and the hug. =)
That sounds so miserable – feel better soon and go get yourself some fab hair. 🙂
Thanks–as for the hair, I’ll try!
Not to say that your hair is all that bad as it is (lol), I was just thinking how good it makes me feel to have new, shiny hair. 🙂
Me, too!
I hope you feel better soon.
And I’m with Minute on the bow – ditch it!
I made her wear the bow long enough for Lynne to see it, then it came off. She was so happy.
Thank you for the get well wishes. =)
feel better
too many yukky things going around – if the L drugs don’t work in 24 hours you really should see a doctor… just saying…
Re: feel better
Yes, ma’am. =)
Feel better, Becky!
Thank you, Gary.
Awww, Becky…. hope you feel better soon. Dogs and a new ‘do should help, but I think you should see a doctor if you’re not better soon.
Thanks, Chris. Tomorrow will tell the tale…
I hope you don’t have the crap I had. It was pure-D awful, as my grandmother used to say.
that’s the cutest bunch of dogs!
maybe you oughta take a roll in the dirt to make you feel better as well?
That would probably work. Plus it rained today–mud would be a like a spa treatment!
That sounds awful. I blame okra.
Seriously, hope you feel better very soon, and work that hair, Wuthering Bronte. (I need to count how many nicknames you’ve racked up.)
There IS okra in the refrigerator. Is it that powerful, even through stainless steel?!?
Seriously, thank you.
I forgot that icon! YIKES!
And yes, the evil power of okra is that strong.
My sister HATES that icon! So I don’t use it much.
Now that I HAVE a Pestilence icon, I can’t remember the comment I was going to post with it, Sister Horsewoman.
OMG, that’s evil looking! Now The Rhonda will be jealous.
stomache
Yogi Tea puts out a lovely ginger lemon tea that has helped soothe my stomach from time to time sipping. It’s not for everyone though, I suspect.
I want to get my hair restyled, but I haven’t made up my mind on what look I want to go for. The trouble is more with management and chlorine in the pool.
Re: stomache
A new hairdo can certainly be an invigorating thing. =)
