It has been over 3 months since my last post, but I finally have time due to a freak snow storm! School (well, work for me!) has been cancelled for two days, as well as the MLK holiday off, end of grading period...It has been great to be home and catch up on things!
So D is on a trip for a few more weeks, and I am watching shows I would otherwise not be watching. This evening I came across women having unassisted births. I knew women do home births with midwives and doulas, but this is with NO assistance from any medical staff.
I am just in shock. I am a worry wart and would give myself a coronary just thinking about all the things that could go wrong. I mean, I almost had one just watching them do it!
Not to mention my pain tolerance is about as low as the economy right now.
I also discovered a show called "Hopkins" on WE TV. The title caught my eye since that is where my Daniel went in the summer of 2007 when he almost died from his bike accident. I am hooked.
Which is weird since...
I hate blood.
I have disdain for hospitals in general (except when they are saving our lives!).
What is my obsession with these shows where women are birthing their babies alone (not the cleanest scenario) and hospitals where people's brains/hearts/lungs are on parade?
Why can't I just watch the HSN or sports like normal people? Or HGTV, like I used to, for crying out loud?
I wish I had a web cam. I would love to see my facial expressions as I am watching...er, grimacing at, these shows I TURNED TO!
