Weekend stuff

So it was my niece's birthday on the weekend and we were invited to go for dinner with them. Little did I know that it would be a huge dinner party!! There was about 25 of us at Kelsey's for dinner~! The good thing was that we had our own little private party room so we didn't distract any other customers but they only gave us one waitress for all 25 of us! It took one hour alone just to get our drink order - she kept bringing them out two at a time!? I guess they don't use trays there? Then none of us had cutlery or napkins and we had to ask like three times to get some, finally they told us the truth ..... they didn't have any clean cutlery and had to wait for them to be washed!? WTF? It was rush hour dinner time and you don't have any clean cutlery? Then we finally got out meals, I think mostly every one's was cold and my hubbies rice was like a brick? It was horrible, we didn't get out of there till 9pm! I suppose it is mostly because they are "short staffed" but they should know how to operate being short staffed by now? If we were there by our self and not with family I think we would have walked out right after getting our appetizer and dirty side plate! :o


Besides the b-day party we really didn't do too much, I didn't even clean the house. It still seemed pretty clean from last weekend. Sunday we went visiting and then I went grocery shopping. Lately I have really been liking canned fruit but not in the can.... in the plastic jars. They don't seem to have the "tin" flavor in the plastic jar. I bought peaches and pineapple and probably could have sat down and ate the whole jar of pineapple last night but thought I should save a little for my hubby! ;) I also believe that my prenatal vitamin has been making me nauseous, I read that sometimes it does in women and a lot of people told me that they switched the time that they take theirs and felt a million times better. So I did switch the time I took my pill and usually took it after lunch so my tummy was full but then I felt like crap all afternoon so yesterday I was feeling good all day and thought I would wait till bedtime to take it. I think it made a difference, granted I woke up at 2am and felt like crap but I felt good for the entire day! That was a first - so today I am doing the same, I am waiting till bedtime to take my vitamin. We will see if it makes a difference this afternoon too or maybe yesterday was just a good day!? ;)

I found that when I was taking my vitamin in the morning I felt like crap all day, but when I switched to taking it right before I went to bed I was completely fine... I hope that your nasuious feelings go away if you take it in the evening...

That was my biggest complaint about the 1st trimester...those vitamins! Don't get me wrong, I am still taking them, but figuring out when to take them took some time. I felt sick contantly after I took them before. Now I take them after dinner with a full stomach and feel great. My suggestion is don't take them before bed, unless you eat some crackers or something, because I tried that and all it did was make me feel incredibly nausious while lying in bed and then having to get up to run to the bathroom multiple times hoping not to puke! Sorry for the TMI! :) Food in your stomach is a good thing...plus I have heard from many a people that you can also, substitute Flinstones Chewables (like 4 a day) instead of the nasty prenatal ones...I didn't need to go that far, but it will work if you need too! Good luck!
