Caution: Complaints Ahead

What are blogs for if I can't complain a little bit... right? So last week was a pretty bad week. First of all, Jake was going to be gone ALL week on a backpacking trip. This was the longest we would have been apart since we've been married. I was pretty sad about it but I figured I could survive....

On Tuesday night, after I dropped him off with his dad to leave on his trip, I was on my way to the gym and I GOT IN A WRECK. Just a little fender bender, not too bad, it just mushed my car a little bit because of the trailer hitch on the other car. But I was pretty much hysterical because it was the first wreck I've ever been in and my husband was gone. He didn't answer his phone so I decided to drive up and see if he was still there. Thank goodness, he was and he made me feel all better. He stayed with me until I calmed down and decided it wasn't the end of the world. I love him.

So he left, and I started feeling sick on Wednesday, but toughed it out and felt a little better on Thursday. I just needed to get through work on Friday and I was headed down to SLC for a fun night. Dinner with the girls, and a fun girls night with my cousin Amanda :)

I got down to SLC a little early for dinner and decided to wander around Gateway. I started feeling really crappy, (my stomach and all my insides hurt BAD) and ended up just sitting on a couch in a store. That must mean I was pretty bad if I couldn't even WALK AROUND THE MALL!! Dinner went fine, I couldn't really eat and was hurting pretty bad. I decided to drive home to Logan instead of the rest of the fun night. I was talking to my mom almost the whole way and she was REALLY worried about me driving.

Well, to make a long story short, I didn't make it home and had to stop in Ogden and check myself into the ER. WITHOUT JAKE. I was so scared and just bawling. I have never been in that much pain. I got there about 9:30. I called my dear friend Karley, who lives in Odgen, and she came to my rescue to sit in the waiting room with me for 2 HOURS. What a great friend. :) My brother-in-law Mike was also in Ogden and came up to the hospital to drive me home. I finally saw the doctor and after checking me out, he listed off a few possibilities; appendicitis, kidney stones, ovarian cysts, kidney infection. I was SO SCARED and just wanted Jake to be with me. I was glad to have Mike though.



After quite a few tests, and a long LONG wait. They decided it was a serious kidney infection. They gave me some pain and nausea meds and some serious antibiotics. We left about 4:30 the next morning. I got home and slept that whole day. Jake got home about 9:30 that night. I WAS SO GLAD TO SEE HIM. It made me feel better just to be with him.

So, I've been sleeping most of the last 3 or 4 days. Still feeling crappy, drinking tons of fluids, waiting for my body to heal. Crappy week. This isn't a sympathy post, It just feels good to complain a little. I'm going to try to go to work tomorrow, wish me luck and thanks for listening to me complain.
