It's probably my biggest pet peeve. . . lately

So I was at the hospital with Abi the other day and they were about to take x.rays of her arm. As is standard precaution they asked me if there was any way I could be pregnant (I have been asked this question a few different times during this deployment, all by x.ray techies). When I was asked before I laughed at them. They didn't think it was a funny question. This time I just really wanted to yell at them. Instead I laughed and firmly said, "NO." The x.ray technician team handed me the HUGE apron as one woman said, "Just in case" with a big grin. I wanted to scream, "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT MY LIFE IS LIKE?"

Let me explain. . .

First of all, IF Ben were here I would NOT be pregnant because I have three crazy kids under the age of 3 who take every last second of my time and attention. I would be crazy to even THINK about having another baby right now.

Secondly, my husband has been GONE for seven months. He left 6 days after Payson was born. It is very difficult to get pregnant without a husband.

So x.ray-technician-ladies next time DON'T EVEN ASK! It's not funny.
