Today is the first Street Legal race of the year, or at least they are going to try and get a race going!? It was suppose to be nice out, with a high of +15 but it is very cloudy right now and I can't imagine it getting that nice out unless the sun comes out?! So after I'm done at work I will head to the track and wait to see if the races are a go!? My only concern with going out there is meals, they also want to try and have racing on Saturday and Sunday as well so that means I need figure out what I'm doing for supper tonight and lunches Sat/Sun! ? It wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't on a restricted diet and could just grab a burger at the concession but I think if I was to do that it would send me straight back to the hospital with another gallbladder attack. And seeing's how there isn't really a lunch room with a microwave or even toaster oven I think I am stuck eating sandwiches? I can't think of anything else that is low fat and doesn't need to be warmed up, unless I just eat fruits and veggies but I think I'm going to want more then that, something warm would be nice considering it is still chilly after the sun goes down! I guess I'll figure it out but it's times like this that make me wish that Fridays and weekends were "cheat" days that I didn't have to think about diet and I could just stop at McDonalds!?
I'm kinda grumpy today, I think my emotions are starting to get the best of me, things that never really bothered me too much seem to be building up and I feel like I'm going to pop .... emotionally! Last night when I took the dog for a walk I was extremely frustrated with her, she is a little aggressive towards other dogs - I don't think she means to come across as a complete b*tch, I'm sure she just wants to play with them and she never used to be as bad as she is now or maybe I just notice it more cause I'm worried about walking her and the stroller at the same time!? So anyway ... last night we go for a walk down one of the trails close to home and of course there are other dogs that walk this trial so she sees one and starts growling (which I could handle) but then she starts pulling, which wouldn't be so bad if she wasn't a 90lb Rottweiler and I wasn't 8 months pregnant! So I sit her down, give her crap for being so aggressive and just as we get up to go again another dog comes around the corner and gets her going again! I have a pinch collar for her, which is like a choke chain but has little teeth like things on the inside that pinch her when she pulls but when she gets excited I swear her neck thickens and she doesn't even feel the pinch. I have to wait for her to settle down a bit before I pull the leash, then she makes a little yelp. I just don't think I will be able to handle her and the stroller when she acts up and I don't see things getting any better over the next 7 weeks!? I also don't see my hubby helping me out with her either, he never goes for walks with me even though they are usually only 20 -30min walks. I think I'm just frustrated, I feel like there is so much to do and we have so many things planned for this summer and then I have the worry of my pay getting chopped in half but I still want to fix things this summer.
I called AB health today to get a new card cause I can't seem to find mine since hubby took it to the hospital the first time I had a gallbladder attack and I think it might be something I need soon! So while I was on the phone with the lady I asked about adding a dependant when baby is born and how we do that?! It was super easy - they pretty much do it for you ... you just have to call and tell them what babies name is but I was so shocked at the price!? I'm not sure what I was expecting, I guess I thought that since they are a little person that the health coverage on them would be little too but no .... it costs the same for a dependant as it does for an adult so that means that for a family of 3 our health care bill is going to be almost $400 every 3 months!! :o I don't think we would qualify for subsidy cause I make more then the minimum never mind adding hubbies income! It sucks - I can't imagine what large families do!? Here is just another reason to not have any more kids .... it's just too expensive!

Yeah... our health insurance is $500 a month for me and Hubby now. Can't imagine how much it'll cost once we add Baby to it. Ugh. Sooooo expensive!
Ab health care is $88 a month for a family whether it is one person or 10... so as long as you and Mike are already on the same AB health care account your premiums shouldn't go up.
i agree with michelle, but hubby has benifets so what do i know.
about your lunches. What about your home made soups in a thermus? I know it's not much but at least it's warm?
take care.
