I had my 3 hour glucose test this morning. It was not a great experience. One of the spots used to take my blood bled a lot more than expected after. I had to ask for another bandaid because I bled through. By the time I was done, I was shaking likely from taking 4 vials of blood on an empty stomach with minimal water. I feel super sad about it, but I called in sick for the afternoon. Just couldn't make myself drive to work. I'm sure I'll get the results in a few days. If anyone else has to do the 3 hour, I definitely recommend taking the whole day off if you can.
@labby18 I still have the galaxy s4 over here. I'm trying to keep it going until it can't go no more.
OH MY! I upgraded my S5 to the S7 last year and it was a whole new world! I have the Galaxy Forever Plan with sprint now, where every 12 months I can get the new phone.
DH is switching us to Verizon tonight, so we get new phones and I get a new tablet! I'm excited, because AT&T has been horrible.
I just switched from Verizon to AT&T a few months ago. If you don't mind me asking, what were some of the issues you had with AT&T?
Coverage issues and I haven't been receiving or successfully sending a large number of text messages to/from other AT&T users. Images don't send about 90% of the time either. I run my business for the most part from my phone, so it's pretty unacceptable.
@labby18 I got a HTC M9, my previous phone was a S4. I miss it so much, and I'm switching as soon as my contract is up (next month, I believe!). I don't know what I was thinking, but I regretted it almost immediately. I really dislike iPhones (my UO of the day), so back to Galaxy I go!
I am dragging this afternoon. I had multiple dreams last night that my animals were turned into zombies, and of course they were lying on me in the bed, so I kept waking up to make sure they weren't actually owner-eating zombies. This kind of night routine is not a good way to have a productive work day.
Also, I was lurking other boards and someone mentioned biscuits and gravy, and now that's all I want to eat.
My food desires have been all over the place today. Basically whenever someone talks about something, I want it. I was dying for pasta salad earlier then I heard something about pancakes so I wanted that and someone just mentioned Cheesecake Factory (which I don't even like!) and all I can think about is cheesecake now.

I just had to explain to my boss why it IS a big deal if we are paying for rotating stock of 11 XL lab coats to be cleaned every week, but are only receiving 3 back each week. She was like, "well maybe some of us can wear the smaller coats we have a bunch of." No. We are paying for things we are not receiving. That's a problem. If I ordered and PAID for 3 pizzas and only received 1, I would not be saying, "oh, well I guess we'll have to make one pizza stretch."
ETA: I almost feel badly. She was trying to be all nice, and I was giving her the flattest "are you effing kidding me" stare of my life.
@mrs_tacos biscuits and gravy is probably my favorite thing ever. DH cant stand it, but I just love it so much. Yum.
There's a really good breakfast place near us that's only open until noon. I plan to take myself on a biscuits and gravy date there tomorrow morning after DH goes to work.
@bridge-and-wall and now after the update I can't post anything via mobile. It's like I'm not logged in... but I am. I even logged out and logged back in and still nothing.

I posted it as my UO a few weeks ago. #galaxy4ever The S8+ is so nice.
When it first started, a friend messaged the BGs and they pretended like it was an isolated issue that was not Bump - wide. I really hope we've all made a big enough stink about it, because it has been a freaking WEEK now! What are their programmers even doing???

@Sugargirl1019 I had a small Greek salad from Panera -- minus the pickled red onions which I love because my heartburn is trying to kill me again today. What are you having?
Me & DH: 31 | Married: 5.4.13 | TTC: April 2016 | BFP: 1.8.17 | EDD: 9.13.17
I'm making taco salad! But even though I can see Mexico from my house, and could totally make legit tacos, I am making white lady tacos, ground beef with a seasoning packet- style. And I will be smothering mine with ranch dressing instead of sour cream. Because sometimes you just need the crappy imitation version you grew up with.
@Sugargirl1019 DH grilled burgers for dinner, and then we had apple pie with vanilla ice cream. It was pretty delicious... but I was mostly excited that I ate a dessert without feeling nauseated. What are you eating?
How can we all stink to the BGs about the pic issue??
We made bean bean and cheese burritos. AKA: barely making it to pay day. Lol.

@Sugargirl1019 chicken, broccoli, rice isn't always a winner! I made a giant batch earlier this week.
We we had hot dogs baked in crescent rolls, pork n beans, macaroni and cheese (the cheap from the box kind) and ice cream for dessert. Basically we, as two adults, are entirely prepared to eat toddler friendly food forever!
