Got a shorter url for this site - www.shay.issublime.com - not bad, not great, but better! I need to update this site, maybe revise the layout altogether. Will think about it. :)

Babbling,

Alright, I created this blog for a reason now I plan on using it. Rant time.
For a long time, I have assumed certain things were happening to me because of my busy, stressful life. I mean who isn't exhausted and who isn't depressed and who isn't stressed, right? Escpecially as a mother, a wife, and working two jobs plus I was attending school, and running Miss Memphis, etc. All of the "symptoms" I had as above listed were what I would consider NORMAL because of the way I live. I've dealt with it because I like ym life the way it is and if it means being exhausted, well so be it.
BUT... A few weeks ago, my neck started swelling and kind of getting uncomfortable. It wasn't pain per se, but imagine someone placing their hands around your neck (below Adam's Apple area) and just sitting there - not squeezing, just touching... It's very claustrophobic! Right???
I went to doctor. We had bloodwork done and she said she thought it was my thyroid. I went and read up on it, got a little worried, but was amazed.... Everything I have been feeling - fatigue, mood swings, MASSIVE WEIGHT GAIN, stress, depression, and the neck thing are all attributed to the thyroid. It made sense suddenly.
So I was happy but not happy, you understand, then 24 hours later the doctor calls and leaves me a message telling me - Shay you're thyroid completely quit working. After all that reading I had done about thyroid disorders, I had not heard about it NOT working only under (hypo) and over (hyper) working. I cried a little and then got on medication as she suggested to do immediately.
Then Wednesday of this week, I went to have a thyroid ultrasound (they checked for fliud and like cancer, I think). I was told the doctor would call me in 24-48 hours with the results. It's currently 47 hours since the ultrasound. If the doctor doesn't call me, I will throw a hissy fit on the floor.
I should be in a happy mood - my cat finally gave birth! (GO WILLOW!!!!!) My adorable angel of a kitty had FIVE beautiful and healthy kittens (3 black, 2 white) and I am just tickled that she did it without me (though I know it's normal for them to do so, I was expecting it to happen while I was with her... don't know why). I walked out and found her in her "kitten box" (I made it for her and she wouldn't sleep in it because she's smart and she KNEW it was for birthin' babies *wink*) & I screamed OMG she's giving birth, rushed over to her and there were the five kitties nursing like good kitties do! I was soooo proud! I still am. They are awesome! :)
But I am more worried about this thyroid crap. Am I okay? Will it ever start working again on its own? Will I be on synthroid forever or just temporarily? Do I have thyroid cancer? Am I going to be okay? ETC ETC ETC.
Anyway I know no one is actually reading this but I had to rant nonetheless. :)

Does anyone actually read this sh*t? Lis? Reie? AAAHHHHHHHHHH
Anyway, got my ID badge to get in and out of the WMC building! COOL. I felt amazing. Nervous but excited all at once. What a f*cking adrenaline rush!!!
Hmmmm, well, still no baby on board. Betcha thought I'd given up, eh? No. I'll probably schedule a gyno appt. in the next month or so. I'm so busy with Miss Memphis, new job, regular job, being mommy, being wifey, dealing with wifey issues and mommy issues and etc etc etc etc etc. Do I need to go on?
If you haven't done this already, you MUST check out

I'm sick again. So sick, in fact, that I am going to be taking my vacation a day early and I won't be actually going anywhere for my so called vacation time. *sigh*
It's Aoh's four year anniversary and I can't even do anything to particpiate or to give the members a chance for some fun.
Then you have to take in the fact that Miss Memphis keeps me absolutely 100% busy. It takes up at least 5-6 hours each day!
Oh but the cool news is that last night I won an award... I was the (female) Jaycee with Most Potential for 2002. :) Cool, eh? Got a trophy and all. hehe.
Anyway, I'm gone. I'm going to lay my head on the desk now.

First of all, I uploaded some new pictures from my company Christmas party and geez, I look so tan. The scary thing is that I had a tanning package back in September and October and went every other day for about one & a half months. Then I stopped going because lack of time and lack of money... So then my hubby gets me a new package in December and I only went one time a few days before the party so I am totally shocked at my tan face. hehe. But I WUV it.
Secondly, I want to wish everyone a safe safe safe safe and happy and safe new year. (Redudant? Never. Worry-wart? Always!)
And dammit, I'll be 27 in less than twenty-four hours. Is that scary or what?????? How in the hell did I skip from 21 to 27 in such a short period of time?
Time flies when you're busier than a bee.
No, no, I am officially 27 going on 17! Woohoo. ;)
Much love and kudos to all-

Not much to say. My back hurts, I'm tired silly and I have a buttload of things to do.
Gotta love it.

Okay so I revised the blog page once more and me likes! *claps wildly*
And OMG look at the cool dhtml used on the Happiness page! When you click on the link to take you to the image, it actually pops the image up on the page! It ROCKS!
Hehe.
Oh and my mass was nothing more than a fybroid cyst. I'm off caffiene completely and drinking lots of water but everything's good! hehe.
I'm giddy!

Okay, now I am happy with the site's new layout. It really looks cool. Reminds me of New Orleans... hehe.
I am sitting here at work and you may wonder why I am not working but playing around on my website.
Well, since I haven't blogged in months I guess a catch up is past due.
1. We hired an admin. asst. for me at the office. She has all my regular duties and I have yet to be even told what my new duties will be. So I am bored sh*tless.
2. My OBGYN found "mass" in both breasts a few weeks ago so I leave in about 10 minutes for my (first ever) mammogram. I'm nervous.
3. That surgery I had was a success. I had scar tissue, blocked tubes, endometriosis and... I forget the 4th thing... Oh cysts on my ovaries. I was a mess obviously but I am supposedly "healed and heathy" now.
Anyway, my nervousness is taking over. I am hoping for the best, expecting the worst.
I'll let you know if I somehow got cancer... I don't even really want to think about that but do I have a choice?
Not really.
