Health is Everything 11-19-07


Health Is Everything

EDIT: Just to clear things up...I JUST had a little Hunsberger  I am not capable of having another anytime soon (and I desperately hope the Lord knows that  )
If I were pregnant I would...well...someone would need to move in with me becuase my family would absolutely fall apart if I were that sick again right now. I do want more children some day...but I cannot fathom it right now...mainly becuase of how sick pregnancy makes me...but for a plethora of other reasons as well 
So no...certainly not trying for any new little Hunsy's around here. Not yet...not for awhile. Please...someone...make sure the Lord knows that 
So Friday night we had some friends over to play games...actually let me back up.
I was doing grad school on Friday afternoon when I heard a knock at my door. It was my neighbor, so I let her in and we chatted for awhile. She is a first grade teacher and mentioned that the eighth graders at her school were putting on a play that night and she was wondering if we would let her take Landon to see it. When he woke up from nap, I asked him if he wanted to go and he was so so so excited. So they took him to McDonalds and to the play...so nice of them!!!!
So Jon and I went ot Panera and Target with just little Noah. It was a nice little break. When our neighbors brought Landon back we put him to bed and invited them to stay and play games. We played until 2 am. It was great fun...I love to play games. When they left at 2, I was feeling a tad nauseous, but I thought it was becuase I was so tired. So I went to bed. Around 5 I woke up...I knew instantly that I was either going to puke or poop  So I ran to the bathroom and sat on the toilet deciding which was going to happen. Then I felt faint...so I put my head between my legs and the next thing I knew...I was on the floor hearing Jonathan frantically calling my name. I can't believe that I fainted. What in the world?! I couldn't move for a few minutes...and I actually felt like I might die. Seriously, I contemplated it and thought, "I feel so awful that it might not be so bad to be put out of this misery." Anyway, eventually Jonathan got me back to bed. I will spare you the details of it all, but in the end I think it was a nice case of food poisening. I don't just get sick like that...ever. I haven't had the stomach flu since I was 12.
So now I have a nice sensitive spot on the front of my head where I hit the wall and deflected onto the floor. I have to say that being healthy is everything. When you are that sick...you can't even get up or get dressed, let alone take care of your children. I am thankful for health...and this whole experience has me seriously considering never getting pregnant again. Seriously. I don't know if I could handle it with two kids to take care of. Perhaps we will be adopting.
So Happy Monday and lets all raise our glasses (err...clap our hands?  ) to health!
