Blog contest as well as an update!

okay, lets start with the "boring" stuff. The update!

This weekend has been a bit slower for me. My sister (who has an EDD of November 18th) was admitted to the hospital on Thursday with what appeared to be severe kidney infection. They gave her antibiotics, and by Saturday night still no better. They said that she was 3cm dialated and the baby was at -3. Well they decided to increase her fluids in the IV to see if it would slow her contractions down (she was having them every 5 min) their reasoning was because if she had a kidney infection they did not want her to experience labor on top of the pain she already experienced.

Well it stopped the labor, and she spent from Thursday till sunday when they ruled out that there was no infection at all! we are thinking that the baby is on her kidneys or is some how affecting them. I snuck up to the hospital yesterday for a visit and also gave her the bottle of castor oil. She took 1 tbsp and NOTHING happened! Today they sent her home. She has asked to be induced, so is on the "waiting" list. The hospital did not have the room to induce her today. Shes still in severe pain, but figures being home is better than the hospital at this point. So its just a matter of time now before we find out when.! I am hoping not tomorrow as I have to work (today is a holiday) and I am the only one there, but I can always sneak out on Wed!!! lol

So with being a bit worried about my sister and on edge everytime the phone rang (I am an hours drive and want to arrive just before he comes out) I have not had as much time to focus on the emails, so please accept my apologies. I will be working extra hard tonight as well as the rest of the week. I am not too far behind, but will do my best to get to everyone asap.

Today is EXTREMELY windy, my cat is completely freaking out, the leaves are all coming flying off the trees and I plan on staying close to home!

Now on to the BLOG CONTEST! as mentioned below, I will post on mondays for the blog contest for the rest of November, and the winner will get a free 3 question reading by my "secret" psychic who will be revealed only to the winners, and at the end of November where anyone else is free to email her if your interested:)

Here is how todays will work.

By posting in the comments section, I want you to pick a number between 1 to 20. Only one choice per person please. Make sure that also in your post you include your login name & email address so we can identify who won. Later this afternoon/evening, I will announce in the comment section who is the winner. The way its done, is when everyone has left a comment with their number and info , I will ask my daughter to pick a number between 1 to 20 and who ever is closest to what she picks, wins. If there are multiple winners, i will put your name in a hat, and draw a name from that. (we can only have one winner each Monday)
