WORTH THE WAIT
I had my entry all written out and ready to save and I do not know what I hit on this key board, but it wiped the entire entry out.....I want to cry, spit nails and pull my hair out....grrrrrrrrr
Amanda went to a physical therapist today for her hand and wrist. The specialist said that she indeed has carpal tunnel in both wrists and also something else going on with her right wrist and thumb...all from being pregnant. I told the therapist that I never had such problems and she said that alot of women don't, but a few do...and poor Amanda is one of those few.
I wake up at three in the morning and when I go to the bathroom, there she sits, crying softly so as to not wake the rest of us. They molded her some special hand splints today and so far she says that they help the pain...I hope she sleeps well tonight. She will go back next week . She goes to her OBGYN tomorrow.....I hope we get a good report.
This is the price of gas here on May 22....it may be higher by now...as it is I paid $50.00 to fill up then and I already had over a fourth of a tank. That price on the diesel is $4.69 a gallon! No wonder the oil companies are making mega profits here lately...whew...I am working to pay for only groceries and gas. I may have to get a second job if this keeps up much longer.
Amanda's Aunt Kat and Kat's daughter-in-law Wendy gave Amanda a baby shower party Sunday and invited all her friends and co-workers! Even my boss was there and when I talked to her today, she said she had the best time ever!!! This being Amanda's first baby, she needs EVERYTHING! So she was thrilled at all the gifts she received for little Wyatt! Kelvins mom brought a very special gift......it was Kelvins own little rockin horse that he had as a tot! She had refinished the wood and gave it a brand new yarn mane and tail. It was beautiful and I just can not wait to see my little grandson riding it for the first time!
This little onesie she is holding up says;
" I was worth the wait" !!!
I know there was a lot of hard work and preparations done for this party and I am so grateful to Kat and Wendy for doing this. To see Amanda so happy after she has had such a hard time of it lately, just made my day...Mere words are not enough, I know...What can I say but: God bless you Kat and Wendy....You both know that I love yall.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

That is such a cute little outfit! I hope Amanda's pain abates some for her, how awful to be going through that now. I don't see any end in sight for gas prices...my diesel truck is well over a hundred per fill up.

Sorry Amanda has had carpel tunnel issues. Bless her heart for crying in the night. Makes me sad. I did go to a workers comp seminar once where they revealed to us that carpel tunnel was more impressive during pregnancy. Also they said it occurred in heavier folks as well, primarily women. Remembering back those having these types of issues in workers comp, I believe that to be true. Anyway, hope all is well.

Tell Amanda to hang in there. I remember when I was pregnant, I had scabies! I scratched myself bloody for months because the drugs to treat it were too toxic for a pregnant person.
Gas is killing us too. -
Hey Carlene, I've never heard of anyone getting carpel tunnel while they were pregnant. Doesn't sound logical does it? Sounds like a wonderful baby shower. Our grandkids enjoy rocking in Papaw's rocking chair my hubby had when he was little. It's about 45 years old and still as sturdy as can be. They don't make 'em like that anymore. With the fuel prices going the way they are I fear more folks will lose their jobs it's affecting every business out there. Something has to give soon or we're all going to be homeless. I know you are getting all excited about baby Wyatt's arrival being a granny is so special.
Hugs
