This weekend went to hell in a hand basket real quick. haha The weekend started off great and ended on a pretty good note but Saturday almost killed me….well it felt like it anyways.

Friday night we got off work, went home and changed and headed to my old highschool for our god-daughter/cousin’s first dance recital. Layla,4, was just precious as can be, dressed in a little lion dance costume, she (along with a bunch of other little ones) wiggled and danced to “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” and it was the cutest thing ever. Her little dance recital brought back so many memories because she was on the exact same stage that I use to dance on when I took dance growing up! Such awesome, fun memories. I sure do miss dance! I wonder if they’ll let me still sign up for classes? haha

So onto Saturday, this was when the real fun started. I slept in a little late, I actually slept until like 10 which is super super late for me on a Saturday. I got up, did a little cleaning around the apartment, talked to my dad and brother on the phone as we finalized plans for the evening. We we suppose go to a lantern launching event Saturday night and I was trying to figure out what time we needed to all leave. It should have been a wonderful evening with hayrides, dinner, smores, bonefires and floating lanterns. Fate decided that wasn’t worthy and knocked me on my tush instead. haha

Within 15 or so minutes of getting off the phone I started to have awful pain in my back. I thought that maybe I had just slept wrong and decided to lay down for a few minutes. Well the pain got worse and worse, moving around to the front of my body. I had pain like no other, shooting up right below my hip to my hips all over the left side of my body.

Let me tell ya, this was what I imagine that contractions feel like haha. It was awful. Thomas came home from work at 12 (as he does every Saturday) and by the time he got in the door, I was in tears. I don’t cry, I’m not crier so this really freaked Thomas out. He was worried that it was my appendix so he tossed me into the car and off we went to the doctor. After a shot in my tush, xrays and a lot of blood being drawn, we were out the door and off to the pharmacy to pick up medicine. They gave me some super strong pain pills, so I spend Saturday doped up in the bed, missing out on our family evening of fun.

So today, my pain is down. I’m still foggy brained from meds but I’m trying to rest up before we headed into the next week! Hope you’re weekend was a bit better! haha
