My heart beat is still really high and the palpitations are really bothering me. My heart skips a beat and then thuds loudly in my chest to compensate, it's horrible and alarming. I've put a call into the High Risk clinic - my DR is on holiday so the nurse was going to ask another Doc what the best plan of action is, and call me back. She hasn't as yet (grrr).
I feel really crappy too, I just feel anxious and on edge and not relaxed, stressed, worried, and generally rather awful. Dylan is off school and I don't feel I can do anything with the boys because if I move around my heart races. So that stresses me too - I don't like cooping them up in the house!
In other (good) news, we finally got rid of the bloody squirrel. It had come out after all, so G put some Duct Tape over the hole at the weekend just to be sure that it wasn't still in there... so that it could escape if it needed to. But then the bloody thing went and broke back IN! So we were really pissed off, it wouldn't come out, didn't know what to do........ in the end G went and smeared peanut butter over the gutter where it was going in. Yesterday morning Dylan spotted the squirrel on the gutter eating the peanut butter so we yelled G out of the shower, who threw on some clothes at the speed of light. We banged on the window and scared it temporarily away up onto the roof, and then G rushed up the ladder and banged the hole shut again. Yesterday it spent most of the day attempting to break back in (unsuccessfully). Hurrah.
