My son and I both suffer from GERD, Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease, and therefore get really horrible heartburn and indigestion due to acid reflux. It’s very painful and sometimes even causes vomiting. I currently take Prevacid for my reflux problems, but it gives my son a stomach ache, so we’ve been trying to find a good Acid Reflux Medication that will help him to be more comfortable and not have as much reflux without also making his tummy hurt. When you have reflux disease, it’s difficult to enjoy some of the foods you may really like. You have to be careful what you eat even if you are taking medication because some foods can make you very uncomfortable and even make you end up vomiting. Sometimes it hurts worse than others, but food is one of the biggest contributing factors. It’s best to avoid tomatos, tea, and tons of other stuff like oranges, and even chocolate. I also have found that drinking a little milk does help when you are feeling bad due to acid reflux.

My son sent me this email yesterday from my mom’s house and although I find it cute, I was unable to find the 4 hidden words. I only found 2. Here is the email…
“gfgih9iru89f9g9eukekooirkiroeoeoeieeiryoyovdd dfk kd kddkdk kfekw fkkmommygdfjdsg ud
vjdjd njfnj jfv j jhd hsd fhu ghdg hbgifuhbguidsnfuhnfhusnfhudhueheartri0iuen.en
ue0nu8ewene rje.uqbenren redewqqw
did you find all 4 hidden words?”
Now, the words I was able to find were mommy and heart. Can you find any other words?

I’ve finished the school supplies shopping. To be honest, I kind of cheated, because I simply could not find the plastic pocket folders with brads.. so I ended up getting paper pocket folders with brads. Oh, well! I called his school this morning and spoke with some lady up there and asked if it was that big of a deal and she said no, if I can’t find them then just get the paper ones.
I had originally gone to Target, then Walmart, then Kroger.. and then yesterday I called a few places and still nothing, except for Office Max. The girl said they had them. Well, the girl lied. I went there this morning and they didn’t have any such folders. Several other moms were there looking for them also. So I said screw it and got the paper folders.
In a moment of weakness I really did almost end up buying the stupid prepackaged school supplies. But I had to talk myself out of it because I can’t see spending $57.99 on school supplies. Speaking of that, I had been keeping a tally of how much I spent on his school supplies so that I could compare. The total ended up being $19.64 plus about an hour and a half of my time. I’d say it was well worth it. My kiddo is now all ready for school to begin and all I have to say to that is Yay!.
