soon to be mrs. dennis crawford's world

I’m doing my best to keep these blogs in order, but since I’m writing them on my iPad and iPhone notes, I can’t prromise they’ll all get published in the right order at least you’ll all know WHY we had such an amazing time….and for once (so far anyway) it’s not alcohol tonight we did dinner with Dennis’s friend Kyle….who I am looking forward to calling my friend as well. We went to Puffy’s for fish and chips (blog about Puffy’s will come up later). It was delicious and VERY close to “home”. We were able to walk there and back and it was maybe a 5 minute walk.

On the way home I happened to look up at the sky and I can tell you, even growing up in the country with no streetlights and basically no lights outside after dark, I’ve never seen stars like these! It’s crazily beautiful. It has been the conversation piece quite a few times when we’re talking with other people vacationing here. That sight alone was worth every penny of the trip!

So we finally got home yesterday and I can’t readjust to the time!!! It’s a 6 hour difference and it’s so hard! I have all kinds of things to do, blogs to post, but I’m so exhausted I can’t do anything but sleep…then of course I lay awake all night but let me tell you….it was worth every penny!

Ok so I only will have a few blogs left on this name…soon, but not yet, I’ll be blogging to my NEW name very exciting right? Over the next few days though I have some things that I need to get off my chest….clearly one thing has to come off at 1:24AM!!!! seriously….who does that….apparently I do!

I haven’t been feeling 100% again (which will be up in a different blog) so I knew I would have a hard time sleeping. Finally at about 12:20 I fell asleep!!!!! That’s awesome right??? Until I had another one of my ridiculously terrible dreams and woke up after a whole 10 minutes of sleep!
Now, I’m starving but I’m so scared I won’t get out of bed to go downstairs in case there’s a burglar here! I’m so ridiculous!!!
Now I’m wide awake and should probably start honeymoon packing, but I don’t want to wake up Dennis!!!
What to do what to do???
Looks like I’ll be doing my ab workout in the middle of the night!

Well, only 6 days until we get married. everyone is super excited…and we’re doing all kinds of things to finish everything and be ready IN ADVANCE I’ve been super busy so I haven’t been blogging nearly as much as I would like to.
This past Friday, I woke up feeling great, so we went to breakfast and after we went to Vickie’s and I made Dennis go do what he had to do in Carousel. He had to go up to Best Buy, and I needed to get my underwear for the wedding Obviously I didn’t want him there with me so it would be a surprise, and suddenly walking through Vickie’s, my eyes started shaking back and forth. I started to feel light headed and thought that I should call Dennis just in case something went wrong. Unfortunately, something went wrong.
The next thing I know, I was in an ambulance heading to the hospital. Apparently, when I passed out I fell over backwards, someone took my phone and called my mother…I still don’t know how they knew who to call LOL…but my mom told them that Dennis should be somewhere near me. Dennis was PAGED THROUGH CAROUSEL MALL!!!! How embarrassing right???? I guess they were asking all kinds of questions and I didn’t really know anything SOOOO…long story short, I was taken to Upstate….AGAIN…and they kept me for like 4 or 5 hours! I got another concussion and I’m still suffering from the icky nausea and horrible headaches, but at this point I’m just hoping that it goes away before our wedding in 6 DAYS!
It’s really frustrating that they have no idea why this keep happening…and the worst part this time, it has messed up my hearing in my left ear. I can’t stand without getting dizzy and almost falling over. I thank God that I have an amazing fiance and an amazing family that are willing to take care of me. We were camping with them this weekend and my parents and Dennis took care of me the whole time. I’m lucky to have so many amazing people in my life

What the heck! We never lose power! We just lost it twice in like 3 minutes! How can I jam out without power????

OK….So I never watched Grey’s until I started dating Dennis, but once I started, I instantly fell in love. I love the story lines, and the fact that they can follow those along with the patient story lines. All the research and testing melts my heart…and I find myself crying at the end more often than I don’t!

I know that the musical episode got really bad reviews, but I have to say I watched it that night, and have watched it over and over again….and each time I love it more and more. Which is very weird because I don’t normally like songs that are redone. They did such an amazing job though! I’m listening right now and jammin’ out Both dogs are seriously staring at me…and I think if they could, they would be laughing at me. I’m dancing around the house cleaning and singing as loud as I can!!! HAHA

I have to share this song, it seriously is awesome!

I love you DC!

Ok, so where do we start…let’s start with my health because I’m frankly sick of talking about it and just want to get it out of the way. Last Thursday at 4am, yes Wednesay night, Thursday morning I was shaking so badly that I was laying on the floor so I didn’t keep Dennis up, and I was STILL shaking our giant King Size bed! He kept trying to get me to go to the ER but I wouldn’t go until finally the shaking hurt so bad that I had no choice. I needed something to stop the shaking or stop the pain, one or the other. My trip to the ER….you figure about 4 hours right? NOPE….they admitted me and I was there for 5 days! 5 FREAKING DAYS. I was told many times that I was very lucky because I had a great support system. My parents and Dennis pretty much took shifts because I was NOT happy about being there, Danielle and Jill came to visit, and even my big sister. Oh yeah, and don’t forget the random guy who bought me a stuffed dog so that he could bang Jill! HAHAHAHA.

Jill was nice enough to take care of the dogs here and there and between her and Andrew they were pretty well taken care of. After 5 days, STILL NO ANSWERS

VERY ANNOYING….BUT IT LEADS ME INTO MY NEXT BLOG…

Seriously. This is the longest I’ve ever been in the hospital. And I keep getting 100 stories from 100 different people. You really see who cares about you and who doesn’t. I don’t want to be here anymore. Leave me alone for too long and I start to sob like a 3 year old. But there’s only so long I can ask people to hang out with me all wrapped like a mummy. I really could use a pick me up. My spirits are less than low and I hate when people hide things from me and think I don’t realize it. It’s not making it any better either
