It's Friday! If only I drank....

    Hello friends, I am oh so glad it's Friday! I don't know why I am- the weekends aren't that much different from the week days- except I get to sleep in later, and lately all I want to do is sleep.
     No not depressed, just so bone weary tired. I really think it's my thyroid. I went off the pills that make me eat since I gained back five(five!) pounds with them.
    And I think that's what is causing this lump on my neck- before you ask I went today to the Doctors, he did blood test and I have to get an ultrasound done Tuesday. 
   Also a Mammogram yuck-honestly can't they come up with a better way to check your boobs other than squeezing them to death?
    OK to answer some of your comments. Ishitunot I have talked to Brock til blue in the face before all that happened and he swore he wasn't doing anything. 
  But when all that came out he confessed(and I untied him-kidding). I bought him some condoms and told her mom, then took her to the free clinic since mom had no time(cause you know I'm not busy). 
  Have I mentioned I hate teenagers? And Jon is my son with Autism so no not ready to leave home.
   Sinead, they have never brought up Coeliac Disease, what makes them think it's Crohn's is the bleeding and because she already has Arthritis so we know her autoimmune system is not working right. I hope it's not Crohn's and something easier to deal with.
    I try not to lose it very often but there's just times I do lose it and honestly I am not feeling up to par right now. I know I need to start taking care of myself better, but we moms seem to put our own health last. Hell it's hard enough keeping up with all of Gloria's doctors appointments.
   I did have some fun today-went garage selling on my way home from the doctors. I got some more star's(yes I love stars, moons and suns-Glo calls it the witchie room) for my room and a iron shelf . A cute picture frame for Glo and some jeans for Brock,Jon,Matthew and Hayley.
   Then my mother in law called and she had bought a cabinet from a garage sell and needed my truck to bring it home so I grabbed the boys and we went off to get it. The cool thing is she gave me an antique cabinet that I had always admired! Now where to put it? I'll figure it out!
     I also got basketballs-four for ten dollars since they seem to get "lost" around here and the boys love to play basketball in front of my house.
   And I got these really cool iron hooks that are meant to hold up curtain rods but I spray painted black and hung up on my wall to hang my purse,robe and backpack on. All this for under twenty dollars! I love garage sales!

     Yes I know Knoty and FoxyMoron men can't deal with anything but I keep hoping!










   
   

I'm alive and well

     Hello friends, I know I've been away for a few days--not sure if you noticed or not. I needed a few days off, I've been working so hard trying to do so much, and putting everyone on the back burner including my kids, my family,friends and even my animals.
    And that's just not right I know. Work should never ever come before any of you. I get so wrapped up worrying about if I'll have enough money for everything and I guess that's normal but a little extreme I have plenty to pay for everything they need-if not everything they want.
    And let's face it kids shouldn't get everything they want handed to them, it makes for very spoiled, selfish bratty children! And all of mine are! Well not completely they all have their good sides too.
    Anyway I needed to step back and look at the big picture. As Rick pointed out I am in my office and on the computer more than I'm out of it and that's just crazy! In my defense they also have to realize that just because I work at home doesn't mean I am available every minute of the day. I do have to work too.
    I get like a dog with a bone when I start a project or anything really-housework, gardening, work I just want everything to be perfect and let's face it that's hard to do!

    You know I feel the worst about neglecting my Woman to Woman forum- I've been popping in and answering but not giving it my full attention and that pisses me off because it's important to me and it's a good place for women to go! Thank goodness for Knoty and Sinead holding it together while I was going a little crazy!
    I just want everyone to know I'm back on track and determined to separate all the many parts of my life back into the places they should be. After all there's more to me than just a business woman: Mom, Wife (yes we're back together and doing well), Daughter, Sister, Oma (Grandmother) and Friend. We all have these many parts of ourselves and we have to figure out how to do it all without letting anyone down and I know I have this last few months. Just so many new changes in my life (let alone more kids).
    But I WILL conqure all these different responsibility's and do it well--I hope!
    I gotta go-I have to take my brother Jim's wife to the Doctor, then go watch Ricks grandma so his mom can get out of the house, I need to make a Doctor's appointment for me to find out what this half of walnut sized lump is on my neck, call Gloria's doctor about her prescriptions, make a Dr. appointment for Hayley and Gloria for their physicals---it just never ends does it? I need a second me or a wife or something! I wish I knew how every other woman does this without going banana's!
    Until we meet again........ 

   It really is a great place to go when you need someone to listen to you, need to rant or just some support www.woman2woman.freeforum.org
