Not to be outdone by a childhood friend, I picked up a A+ Certification Study Guide book yesterday while on a shopping spree at the mall. Lets just say for everything I knew, there was 5 things I didn’t. Up until that point in the computer store I was feeling like a hot shit, then I get home and begin reading the book.
Dammit. LOL
The book is a bit out of date, which makes me feel a little better. It doesn’t cover Windows XP, nor some of the more powerful goodies out there like the new RAM – among other things. Still, remembering just how much of a newbie I still am was sobering. Then, as if to underscore that – my computer crashes and crashes hard. XD I went to Safe Mode and several scans later I had it back up and running. Not sure what the hell happened, but this beast has so many weird issues with conflicts and bad drivers (that also can’t be updated) it could be most anything. -_-;;
I really need to figure out how to juggle my Avandamet and a job so I can begin putting together my new machine. (Which is the main reason I had been feeling so good before I picked up the book.) I found all the parts I wanted for my home-built machine and they weren’t all that different from the places on the internet I’ve been looking at. I’m still going to be ordering the bulk of it off the internet anyway, so I’m not paying for the “purty” packaging.
Anyway, it was girls’ day out at the mall yesterday. I got two new bras and five new panties at Victoria’s Secret, some new Lavender scented body lotion at the Bath and Body Shoppe, and then browsed the Anime’ at Suncoast. I almost picked up Silent Mobius, but after burning almost $70 between the first two I didn’t feel I had another $15 to spend on it. I didn’t get to go clothes shopping either; but as it was, we didn’t get home until 7pm anyway. So I suppose that’s going to have to be a trip for later.
My new Insulin regimen is going well, provided I can keep my bloodsugar from crashing and burning. Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice to be able to occasionally eat chocolate again, but not necessarily under those circumstances. I’ve also gained weight *sigh* It’s probably a side effect of the insulin therapy, but I feel really bloated and uncomfortable. But, on the whole, my bloodsugar is starting to come down which is a good thing. I just don’t want to gain too much weight, since it makes controlling bloodsugar much harder. I doubt I’m going to be able to stop the Avandamet, though, but it’s something to ask my Doctor once my body finishes adjusting.
*giggles* I went to Victoria’s Secret myself recently, because being preggy has caused my size to jump from a B to a D … as fun as that might sound to some … it’s not
Anyhoo … they didn’t have anything my size … but didn’t find that out until after the cute lil petite sales lady shouted across the store "So WHAT size are you?" I didn’t have the nerve to shout it back at her *giggles* Baby and mommy are doing fine =) ~ *Lots of Love* ~ Theresa
