Of tiny feet!

Thankfully once again, not from me Not that I had any doubt… except I do sit there thinking “It would be seriously weird if the nurse came out and said ‘Sorry, but you’re pregnant.’”… even though I obviously know better
I got the 50% increase of my Roaccutane today, after the awkward pregnancy test and grilling from the nurse about my symptoms.
Upon getting the new meds, I read the leaflet again while my Mum went into a shop. It made some sense of some bad back/neck/shoulder pains I’ve been having lately. It’s very common to get muscle and joint pain while on the medication. Lately every time I’ve laid down in bed my lower back has hurt quite a bit. It’s kinda hard to breathe when it does, and it’s generally getting a bit of a nuisance. While walking the dog yesterday it was hurting too.
Of course it’s worth it if it banishes my acne forever. Due to the wonder that is female hormones my complexion has been a bit crap this week, so I don’t really want to go outside

Anyway, the pitter patter of tiny feet will be coming from my cousin Liz I found out that she’s due in October today. Yayy for Liz!

Today I was woken up before my alarm (grumble!) because it was snowing. It’s a big deal around here. If it snows, it’s usually after a fortnight of heavy rain and gales. It snows once a year…or once every two years, and it..just never lays.
This morning it laid. However, two hours later, it was completely gone. Might have something to do with the heavy rain yesterday, or the extremely sodden water table.

At least my camera was by my window to capture the magic(!). One of my neighbours was outside with his 4(?) year old son making a snowman. That is still there, slowly melting:

How cute. They gave it hair!

And a random one I snapped of our garden while I stretched and yawned:

That large patch of melted snow would be where my dog Poppy rolled around and got soaking wet and cold. She now looks like a puffball and her hair is all crimpy.

In other news:
Side effects of my tablets are getting nutty. I am soo dried out! My hair has not required washing for 4 days. I usually have to wash it every day. I also ripped my gum on my lip about half an hour ago, and it’s not looking good
Not to mention the extremely dry skin on the face. This had all better be worth it *goes off to drink more liquids*
