Three for Thursday

1. It’s late, I’m tired, and I’m having some kind of weird chest fluttery, uncomfortable thing.  Not chest pain. Don’t get all worried, you worriers.  But it’s weird. So sleep is what I want sooner rather than later.

2. Tonight at work there was a woman in the branch who was homeless, in as a guest to use the showers.  She was there about 5 hours.  She didn’t seem well.  It’s so hard to know what to do in those cases… when someone needs help and when I don’t know what the right thing to do is.  I’m thankful I’m not numb to those kinds of needs, but it’s hard to feel helpless.

3. This daily picture thing on Braska’s blog is tough.  And it’s become discouraging to me that more posts seem to equal less comments.  I get that it’s easy to look at a picture and not have much to say, I guess.  (How many times can you say, “Too cute!” right??)  But I miss the comments, and since I archive them to print for Braska to have later on down the road, it’s sad to see so many receiving no comments.  Whiny? Maybe.  I know people are seeing the posts, but I miss the input and feedback.

Off to bed. Hoping tomorrow brings the return of a normal feeling.  This almost feels like a panic attack that just doesn’t have enough battery to turn over and vrooom.  Weird.

  1. RK,
    I know that you did not want anyone to worry about your heart flutters but I have to tell you that could very well be a sign of major heart porblems and YES you need to go to a Cardiologist ASAP. I am very serious for my heart problems started out the same way. Please have it checked out. It is not worth what can happen if you wait to long. keep us posted on how things turn out.

    Love,
    Sheila (sorry but I do not know my sign on any more so I have to use anonymous)

  2. Shame on me, Randa, because I enjoy your posts so much. In return I should take time to comment--sorry. I'll try to do better. I really enjoy reading about the girls' progress. Wish we could meet and have a play date for g-mas, mamas, and little girls!

  3. I didn't know you were saving them - That's awesome!
    Sometimes I get behind, but if you're ok with a barrage of "so cute's" then, dude, I can deliver!

Oh happy day, Less question mark!

As a follow up to yesterday's post, I got word today that we will NOT be assigned to the new guy, but we will have an experienced coordinator after all. I feel SO much better. I also learned some other info today that made me think I still have some kinks to work out, so I'll be taking care of that this next week. I'll be SO glad when this transition/IEP stuff is behind us. I want to do the very best I can, but there's part of me who wants to just hide and let it all happen without me.

31 for 21: What to say

I have encountered plenty of people who ask "How old is she?" when Braska and I are out together here and there. They always guess her age about 5 months younger than she is, but that's ok, since that's what size she is. I have said several times that I can imagine it will bother me a bit more, although still not a huge deal, when she turns one next month and I see their reaction to that, as she still is in her car seat/carrier when we're in a restaurant or in a store since she doesn't sit up. Today, I met some friends for brunch. The waitress was a nice enough, very young girl, and she started cooing at Braska right away. That's nice. I don't mind, Braska likes the attention, and I'm proud of my cutie. The waitress asked her age, and I told her 11 months. She then said, "But she's not walking yet?" as she noticed that she was up to the table in her car seat/carrier. I just agreed and said, "Not yet." She said she h

Was there a line??

I assume that you went to vote, either today or earlier if possible. I expect that of you, know that straight up. How long did you wait in line?? And throw in the state you voted in, just for fun. I'm really curious if all areas have a big wait or if it's just the more congested ones. I voted Friday absentee/in person, and we waited about 15 mins or so. It moved VERY fast for a big line. There's just one place in our very populated county to do the absentee/in person voting, and it wasn't bad at all for what I thought it might be. If you haven't, GO VOTE people... again, please just know what you're voting for, either way. You may just have to live with your choice. God Bless America!!
