Oh October

This post is nothing but a rant. I don’t want pity or anything, I just need to rant… Well, and there’s a question at the end, you can just skip my rant 😉

Although it’s the “Golden October” here in Germany, it’s been not so golden for me.

The end of September my mole got removed. Three weeks I couldn’t wash my face decent, three weeks I had to wear a band-aid over the wound, three weeks I couldn’t shower (I took baths). So, three weeks I had limitations which got annoying after a while.

On October 9th I got sick. Nothing bad, just a cold which kept me in bed until Sunday. I felt like sh**, drank tea and water all day long, had a sore throat, a bad headache, my boobs hurt like crazy ((don’t ask me why))… I canceled the seminar I should have visited Monday ((the 13th)) to Wednesday about Apache Tomcat, I wished I could have taken part in it.

On Thursday, October 16th, halfway healthy again, I got my wisdom teeth removed. Luckily, only on one side. I felt like sh** Thursday to Saturday. I could only eat mash, although, I was so hungry all the time ((I have a quite big stomach 🙂 )) that I ate “normal” food as well.

On Sunday, October 19th, my sisters, my nephew, my mom and I had a great day. We ate brunch together and took a walk. Three days later, on Wednesday, my mom was hospitalized due to heavy diarrhea and an allergic attack. She got the wrong antibiotics and got an acute poisoning. I was so worried and felt like sh** again, Wednesday to Friday. I hardly ate (and lost four pounds 🙂 ), cried a lot and felt horrible. My family is the most important thing in life to me and if one of the family members gets sick, I’m terrible worried. Luckily everything went well with my mom, she got about 20 infusions, all the tests the hospital made turned out great and we hope she can get released tomorrow.

On Friday, October 24th, the stitches in my mouth got removed and the “band” the dentist put in my hole, where my bottom wisdom tooth once was, got removed. It felt so yucky! Since Friday my throat hurts again and the wounds in my mouth still hurt a little as well. I’m guessing the sore throat this time is from the wounds in my mouth.

Bah! Oh, and I got my period too and had PMS and a terrible headache last week as well. I’m happy everything is sort of over now and hope to start a great November.

Ah ok, end of all my “problems”, now, I need your opinion. Some of my family members are flying to the States and I begged for a new “Bed in a Bag”. My mom finally said yes (note: the reason she wasn’t so happy about it is that it takes up a whole lot of space in the suitcase) and now I can’t really decide which one I want. What do you think?

Bed in a Bag #1
#2
Bed in a Bag #2
#3
Bed in a Bag #3
… or maybe this one?
Bed in a Bag #4

After reading that Linens’n Things is closing, I surfed to their site and found all kind of pretty bedding things and soooo cheap. I can even afford it 😀 It’s great. I’m in love with this one, but I’m pretty sure the Lover wouldn’t be too happy about it. *sigh*

  1. I love the first one also followed by the third 😀

    The pink one tickles my fancy too as I am an unashamed pink fan haha xD

    And aww for an awful October, hope you have an awesome and better November also 🙂

  2. Personally, I would buy the pink one whether the lover liked it or not. But that is me. But if I was going to take the lover into account then I would go with #1 followed buy #2. I just don’t like #3 but I don’t like green in a bedroom. My parents bed covers are completely floral cause that is what my mother likes. My father has no say in it. The way he thinks is it doesn’t matter all they are there for is to keep him warm & to cover him. It doesn’t matter what it looks like. But then my father isn’t like most men, lol.

  3. Sometimes, I feel like I have absolutely HORRIBLE months too. But you know what? Things will get better 🙂

    I like the pink one too! But the first one might be better for you AND the lover. Your mom’s a sweetheart. If I asked my mom to put a bed-in-a-bag in her suitcase for me, she’d just say no. Haha

  4. Awww, I’m sorry for the unfortunate events, Tracy! But I’m glad you’re doing okay, as well as your mom =]

    Anyways, I like #3! Teehee! AND OMG! Why aren’t you going with them to the US?! Goooooooo!! I wanna see youuuuu!! lol

  5. I like the first one. The blue and brown combination is just my type 🙂 Sorry about those things that happened to you though. Sometimes I get consecutive negative things happening to me too :s

  6. I’d definitely go for the Pink too. I also like the first too, because brown is one of my favourite colours. Would be better if it were brown and pink though. 😛

    Hope November is better is for you. =)

  7. Oh, sorry to hear about your bad month! I guess sometimes everythings comes at the same time… Hopefully November will be better though 🙂
    The pink one is cute 🙂 I like number one best though… 🙂

  8. I really like the 1st one the most. Blue is my favorite color so I almost always pick something with blue tones. Personally I’d rather claw my eyes out than look at a pink anything really, but I have to admit it’s totally cute! I’d be all over it if it was in blue!

  9. I like #2, humpycakes.

    And oof, October is almost over and what does not kill you only makes you stronger! Hee. I need to get my wisdom teeth removed and omg, I am scared.

  10. Aww it sounds like you’ve been through a rough time! =[ My sister recently got two of her teeth removed and a filling added under general anesthetic and she’s been in a lot of pain and feeling like shit so I can sort of relate.

    Wow…those bed covers are all really nice!! 😮 I really like #3 however. The colours are really neutral and would give your room a fresh feel.

  11. OMG you poor thing! I know exactly how you feel. I had all four of mine out and I had a cyst in lower right side so I was even more sore and hideous. I was swollen for day and I was convinced my face would never return to normal. I would only let my friends come over if they brought me chocolate frosties from Wendy’s.

    I like the 3rd one the best. I’m sad they are closing too but hey everything is like 90% off so it rocks!
