I almost died

Hello! Lets just jump into my weekly episode of Life of a Trophy Receptionist. My boss wanted to Skype someone and me being the youngest one in the office, decided to ask me for help. I went home to get my ipad to help get him set up. Have you ever tried teaching someone older how to use technology? It's quite the entertainment.

That evening I went to go pick up my mom at the airport in Salt Lake City. She was flying home from Rhode Island. On the way there I noticed the hot light was on and I couldn't resist. It was too late in Salt Lake to do any shopping so I sat around at the airport with my diet caffeine and waited for my mom while her flight was delayed. I finally got her around mid night, and after loading up the car, stopping for gas, we didn't end up getting home till 4 in the morning! Luckily, I didn't have to work the next day and slept in till 11.

A brand new IVF center opened up in Idaho falls last week! Chris and I went for our first appointment, just a consultation to see the specialist. I feel very hopeful, happy and excited. The only problem we have now is that Chris is getting laid off this week so we may have to wait before we proceed until he gets a new job. He has a couple job interviews so wish him luck! Baby needs money ;)

We were both competing in a match this weekend in Twin Falls, so we got time off work and left in Thursday to make a fun trip out of it. Originally we were only staying on Friday night, but decided last minuet we would stay on Thursday evening as well. That being said, we couldn't get a second night at the Red Lion we had booked and got stuck with a Motel 6. Lets just say, it was rather interesting. I really enjoyed our camping trip! Chris wanted to sleep in but once we got to Motel 6 he quickly changed his mind and woke up early and was ready to go!

Friday we went to a beautiful place called Thousand Springs State Park. There were so many waterfalls and it was so pretty. After that we got to our fancy hotel and spent the rest of the evening laying by the pool.

Saturday was our match. It was so fun, and rather hard. I have only been competing a year and I'm still fresh from overcoming my PTSD and anxiety, its still there sometimes. But this one was a rather hard match, it was hot, we shot with new people, and I did terrible! The stages set up were more difficult. It was a team match, but I checked out the individual scores and I got dead last! I haven't been last in forever. I have usually been placing right in the middle. I don't think my mind was in the right place, I have had lots of personal family problems come up, and meeting with the fertility Dr, and shooting in front of new people I didn't know I think got me a little flustered.

After the match I was feeling SO sick and didn't even stay to see who won. We drove home, and we had to stop twice so I could throw up. We got home and I went right to bed. I woke up and threw up again. Chris decided to take me to an urgent care. I had heat exhaustion and dehydration. They set me up with an IV and I was just miserable! Its a terrible feeling.We got home after midnight and I slept all day Sunday. Monday I woke up and my heart was beating so slow and I couldn't breathe. I got up and went back to urgent care. They gave me a breathing treatment and I could finally breathe better. The Dr said I was probably just having a panic attack, since I already have an anxiety disorder. Which was weird, when I get anxious, I have never felt like that, and my heart usually races. I was sent home with some meds and I rested the rest of the day. Today, I feel much much better! I didn't go to my circuit training class like I usually do, but I did get up and put on makeup and do my hair. Ill try to take the dogs for a walk later if I have the energy for it. Tomorrow I will also go back to work, I haven't been to work in a week! So tomorrow should be a rough one!
