My sinuses are still kicking my butt! I've been taking decongestants, an allergy pill, and nasal spray (which were all recommended by my dr.), and I think I'm getting worse. My ears are plugged and that's making me dizzy, not to mention giving me a headache. I may have to break down and actually go to see the doctor, I just hate wasting $25 for her to tell me to take some over the counter meds. or go to an ENT.
We had our backyard olympics over the weekend and it went okay, but it started raining right after supper, so no outdoor activities then. I did learn that I CANNOT throw a frisbee to save my life. I wasn't feeling 100% so I was okay that things were kind of mellow.
I always feel like my hubby's friends think I'm stuck up because I don't drink and get crazy. I'm a quiet, shy person and if I drink more than one drink I'll be puking for the next 24 hours, so I avoid it. They just kind of give me the cold shoulder, so I wonder what I did or what he's told them about me, or is it just my imagination. My hubby was in trouble with me a couple of weeks ago for coming home late, then puking all over the bathroom, so I almost wonder if they heard his version of events after that and have some judgements there. They were all with him that night, so maybe they just think I'm trying to ruin his fun. I guess my thinking is that when you know your son has a football game the next morning, you shouldn't be out until 2 a.m. and get so drunk you are puking and hung over. Maybe I'm wrong here. Anyway, I'm venting and I need to quit. It's just one of those days, I don't feel good and for some reason am emotional today. I'm going to try to workout tonight since I couldn't get my butt out of bed this morning, maybe that will kick all of the negativity bugs out of my system.

Sorry to hear that you're so sick :( that doesn't sound like fun at all. Hope you feel better soon! As for your husband's friends - they might just not know how to approach you. Drinking and being crazy makes communication easier, but they can't use it with you, so they might just be a little unsure. Don't take it personal, just be who you are. Drinking until 2am, and then puking and being hang-over sounds very irresponsible to me, when you have responsibilities the next day. It happened to my bf and I - he got very drunk with his friend in a bar. I got so mad, I told him I'm going to leave him, because it hurts me too much to see him not being able to open his eyes and wonder if he's going to die of alcohol poisoning. He spent the next day getting over an awful hang-over, but never got the same drunk again after that. He also complained to his friends about me yelling at him, and his friends came to apologize to me later on too :) It's tough sometimes - I'm a software engineer, who works in office with people who mostly don't smoke, swear, or drink too much. He's a carpenter, who works with people who all smoke (both cigarettes and pot), drink, swear a lot, and do all kind of crazy things. When there are just two of us, it's all good, but it is sometimes hard for me to relate to his friends.

I'm the same way about going to the Dr. I don't want to pay a co-pay to have them tell me to get OTC meds. As for the backyard O, it sounds like a fun event but I understand how others can feel some kind of way towards us if we are not drinking they way they are. For me, if I am going to put empty calories in my body it has to be something I like and bear isn't it. Put a brownie in front of me and now we're talking ;) Don't sweat the ackwardness of they event. That will blow over, it usually does with guys. If anyone tries to get pushy about the drinking thing do what I do, tell them, "I won't bug you to stop drinking if you don't bug me to keep drinking". Works every time. Good luck.
