I'm out of the hospital. I technically got out last Friday after a bag of blood and platelets. They were hesitant on blood but I was at a 7.3 on the hemoglobin scale and an 11 on the platelet scale. So after we got out we took a trip to the mall to find me some shoes and Bridget bought a lot of OU stuff for us. Then we didn't stay very long bc we were hungry! Well, I was anyway. Lol. So we went into Elephant Bar Restaurant, one of my favorite places to go ever, and we had some good lettuce wraps and of course our entrees....which, I'm not used to eating very much as it is so this was a push for me!
After we finished our yummy meals, we ran into Emily at home and I was exhausted. Then, I didn't even to try to think about my ambien....which is horrible because I was up half the night but didn't get anything accomplished. Maybe I'll wait a a little longer to stay off of them to pull their act together.....okay maybe not. Lol.
Saturday came by and since I was up and thinking and it seemed like I knew what I was suppose to be doing, i woke up my mom and we agreed that at 545 my mom told me she would take me grocery shopping at 630. So she went into the living room with my sister and laid down on the couch. Then once I was ready I went in and it was freezing!! I sat down and I said omg, I'm an ice cube! Poor me. I played a little with Eins and eventually went back to my room. Come 9:00 am, I hear both my sister & my mom up and walking. Eventually, we make it to big Walmart on expressway. It was so cold AND they didn't have anything so I could roll around with except......well, nothing. Then we spotted a lady and attacked her like an overweight pigeon. We got her off her chair and off we went. We spent about an hour shopping, came home and my mom and my sister whipped us (Emily & I) up some spam and potatoes. It was sooo good. Then my mom and sister went somewhere and then Emily went to her moms and I was at home all by myself. I took a shower and felt a little better. Then we went to the fair and I had to rent a wheelchair but no problem-o! We stayed for a while and ate some food, looked around, and stayed away from the carnival rides (bc of students). We were leaving at 9 and people were just coming in! I was like omg, go home people!! Lol.
Sunday was a lazy day at home. I didn't do anything at all.
Monday, I was asked by my student Austein if I wanted to go to the fair with him. So he worked out all the details. However, before that, I had a blood drawl deal and it was pretty clean. My hemoglobin was at a 8.4 and my white counts were up to a 0.9. :) I'll take it!! My platelets were at 11 so they gave me a unit of platelets. Thank goodness because those rides at the fair were brutal on your body.
So it's Tuesday now and I'm tired but I want to get out and do something. Hmmm,......idk yet but all I know is that I'm sick of laying here doing nothing. I'm sure my mom feels the same.
Well that's all for now! Xoxo
