Update
On Thursday I officially signed my contracts for the new teaching position. My principal was also there signing his contracts and told me that my classroom was ready for me to go check out whenever I wanted. I will have to attend several sessions/workshops before my actual starting date of August 10th. I'm getting more nervous by the day, I mean what if I screw these kids up? I'm sure I will be fine, but I still keep freaking myself out.
The weekend was nice, nothing major. We decided to leave to Eagle Pass on Thursday night since Roger had to be there for work early Friday morning. I watched Anchorman with my parents, which is freaking hilarious...I love that movie. On Friday I just hung out around the house and later in the day, my mom and I went to buy a few things at the store after I was elected to make dinner that night. We spent the night at the house with Eddie, Patty and my God Daughter and had a blast playing with her. It is so obvious my parents are ready for a grandchild, but now is not a good time for me.
Saturday we went to a wedding which turned out to be like a small class reunion. That's how it is when you come from a small town, you just know it will always be that way. It is for that reason that you will never find me at the Wal Mart or HEB in Eagle Pass without decent hair and makeup.
For the good news, Roger and I are taking a vacation. We are leaving for New Orleans and are flying out on Saturday morning....I'm so excited. We have taken vacations before, but this will be the first time that it is just the two of us. We will be returning next Thursday. I don't even want to think about packing for this trip, I can't even stand packing when we go to Eagle Pass. Roger is convinced that the airline will loose our luggage so we went to buy those little carry on suitcases that fit in the overhead compartments.....It should be freaking hilarious watching me try and pack everything in that thing. Knowing myself, I will probably be pissed off that I had to leave certain things behind and will start the trip in a bad mood. That's just me.
So now here I am, trying to get things done before we leave. I have three workshops in Seguin this week and I have to finish two online bookstudy's that each have like 5 mini essays. Yes, I'm stressing out bigtime, but I just keep thinking that a week from now, I'll be relaxing in another city and state.
in other news:
I almost ended up being taken to the hospital because I became physically sick on Friday. The same thing had happen to me 2 weeks before but I didn't think anything of it. The whole thing lasts about 40 minutes and it is HORRIBLE. It starts with a pain in my back that just gets worse and worse, then travels to my stomach, I can't take deep breaths, then I begin sweating (which sucked cuz I was having a good hair day) and I just feel physically ill. We had to rush home. My uncle says it was an anxiety attack and I guess it could be, but other than the upcoming job I really am not stressed at all. I am scheduled to see a doctor next week about this. I am just worried that it could be something with my heart, my heart has been an issue with me and doctors, yet they can never find anything wrong with it....So we will see. Has anyone reading this ever had an episode like this?

Sorry, no I haven't experienced anything like that. I hope it's nothing serious. Actually, I hope it's nothing at all and it goes away. Have positive thoughts about your health and don't stress about it. You'll be fine.
I've never had anything like that happen to me, but last summer I started having these horrible, sharp pains just below my left boob, sometimes inside the boob or more in the area around my heart and afterward it would send chills throughout my body or sometimes I would break out in a cold sweat. I was petrified that I had heart disease or some other God-awful illness, so I went to a doctor. I had all sorts of tests done (EKG, echocardiogram, chest x-ray, ultrasound, CT Scan, etc.) and it turned out nothing was wrong - my heart was strong and a-ok. After talking with a good friend about it, she had something similar happen to her that had sent her to the ER several times. The ER docs finally told her that it was stress-induced and she needed to do whatever it took to decompress, so as not to end up at the ER all the time. I think stress was my problem as well, and I no longer have that pain after I learned to chill out. I was so scared and I think that just made my situation worse.
I'm sure you will be fine, Celeste. Sometimes, even though you don't necessarily feel stressed, your body has ways of signaling that maybe you have built up anxiety or what not. Still, make sure and see your doctor and get that clean bill of health. Make sure they do a full work-up on you, so that you don't worry about that they haven't done everything to identify the problem. I'm sure it is nothing more than stress, so relax and try not to worry. I'll be praying for you.

Thanks Erin, you are sweet. I'm glad you didn't have anything wrong with you either! I found out that my gall bladder is causing the pain, keep your fingers crossed that I don't need surgery!
I'm glad they were able to pinpoint the problem, but I hope you don't need surgery. I was told in my situation it could be my gallblader too (even though my pain was nowhere near that area), but it wasn't...that's what I get for initially going to Texas Med Clinic. Take it easy and feel better soon!
