If this is how the rest of the year is going to go… count me out.

             I had such high hopes for this year and so far my expectations have not been met. The last three weekends have been spent sick. The first I was in the ER for extreme pain to my uterus (or what I thought it was). I was diagnosed with a UTI. The weekend after that I was sick with the flu. Actually the three older kids and I were all sick and bedridden for three days. It sucked. Then this past weekend I went back to the ER when I woke with a stabbing pain in my side. Nothing helped the pain either so I had no choice but to go in. Turns out two weeks prior I was misdiagnosed with the UTI because in fact I had a kidney stone. And OH MY HECK kidney stones are nothing to joke about. A tiny little stone and I thought I was going to die from the pain. We are talking excruciating, passing out, puking it hurts so bad, pain.  I would have happily birthed all four of my kids sans epidural again… at once…than deal with that pain again. Bad part is, it runs in my family so I am screwed as far as getting them again. Great, just great. Any way, the stone passed and I am due back to the urologist next week. Yay… not. The part that sucks is that I am feeling the onset of another cold coming. I refuse to be sick again. End of story. This is just a bit much. And if this is any indication as to how the rest of this year is going to pan out, well… count me out. I have big plans for 2014 and being sick all the time is just not in them.
