NJM 12 & 13: I didnt forget I promise
I was just busy all day yesterday. Like nonstop basically. I got up about 10 I think to straighten my hair. I started hacking out of nowhere to the point I started dry heaving. I had absolutely nothing in my stomach to throw up because I fasted the day before annnnd I hadnt eaten breakfast yet. But the dry heaving would not stop until I threw up the water in my stomach. Frackin water. Can you believe that? I was like the devil is a lie and went on about straightening my hair. After I finished with my hair I wrapped it and went to get my outfit together for last night. I got everything together and took a shower. I decided to wait until it was closer to the time I needed to go to get dressed to put my outfit on so I put on some comfy clothes on to relax for a couple of hours. Mom and dad went out for shrimp fried rice and egg rolls. I ate a few forkfuls of rice and a few bites of one egg roll, ate a fortune cookie, and I was full. I mean I didnt eat much at all. Didnt think much about it though. I went to get dressed after I ate and did my makeup and hair then headed out the door to the church. The youth group met at the church about 5 and headed out to Memphis about 5:45 for a youth conference there.
It was really good. My cousin and his little girl didnt show. I’m not exactly surprised but oh well. I had a great time. They had a lot of dancing and had a christian rap group there to perform. The kids danced and got down the whole night. It all ended about 10:30 and I thought we were going to hit the road. The church wanted us to stay and eat there because they were cooking burgers, polish (did I spell that right?) sausages, and pizza. The kids wanted to go to McDonalds but our youth pastor decided we should eat at the church. I wasnt feeling well still so I didnt want any of that heavy food on my stomach especially with an hour ride home. I dont know why but I had body aches, really bad tension in my neck and shoulders, and a headache, all day. And my throat was super dry. I actually felt like I was going to pass out so I asked one the kids to just get me a drink and some chips. I gave her the money of course. She comes back and said they wont separate the combos. -.- Meaning I had to either do without or pay $40 for a can of soda and a small 25 cent bag of chips. Can we say no? Why would I buy food that I was going to throw away? So after stewing for a bit and feeling worse, I broke down and decided to buy a slice of pizza and maybe see if one of the kids would eat it so I can get my soda. The lady said they were out of pizza so I asked myself can I just get a drink? She was like sure but it’ll be 50 cent. I was like Hallelujah! I didnt really want a coke but that was all they had. Cokes tend to give me headaches and churns my stomach if I drink a whole can. Yes weird I know but I was like I am going to drink it anyway because feeling like I’m gonna pass out from thirst is not getting it.
We stayed much longer than I thought we would. We stayed almost an hour letting the kids eat and play basketball (yes the church had a gym in it). We finally headed home and got to town about 12:45. We had to make sure all the kids got home and I finally got to my house about 1:30. I was feeling so sick that I thought I was going to throw up so I started snacking on some crackers and drinking some water hoping to settle it. Mom must have heard me raiding the kitchen because she got up and asked me why I was snacking on crackers. I told her about the coke making my stomach upset and me not eating anything so she fixed me a bowl of soup that she made while I was gone. Hallelujah. I didn’t eat a full bowl but the little I had was just right because my stomach felt much better. While I was eating I was talking to my friend Sean, a fellow ODer, through Mobile Yahoo. I hadn’t talked to him in a long while so it was good to touch base with him again. I let my stomach digest then crashed about 3. Guess what? I couldnt sleep. Of course right? I got out bed with really bad chills and felt under my neck. I was running a fever. UGH! So I turned on my heater and went back to bed… Still didnt help. Threw on literally 4 blankets… Still didnt help. I put on a pair of my fleece pjs and buried under those 4 blankets and finally was able to sleep and sweat some of it out.
Woke up feeling craptacular. Energy completely drained and body aches. I ate lunch and watched Hot Tub Time Machine with mom and dad. Then I cleaned up and threw some things out of my room for a while. Kind of a mini spring cleaning. I didnt do the whole room because I didnt have the energy for it. I called it quits about 5 or 6 in the evening and fell asleep on the couch until about 8. Ate a little something and watched tv with mom until now. Now I am going to try to read a scripture or two then crash for church in the morning. I love you guys and God bless. Say a prayer for me all my fellow believers. *smooches and hugs to all*
*HUGS* TOTAL!
