Stress

Life just seems harder these days. My husband and I are having problems, financial troubles, stress from the girls and a lot of stress is coming from his mother living with us. I started looking for a second job last week. No luck yet. I would love to find some thing a couple evenings a week and maybe one or two weekends a month. Not only for the money but to help me get out of the house and away from the stress.

Stuffy

I woke up today with a stuffy nose, both ears plugged and feeling like crap. Even taking sinus pills I have been blowing my nose and complaining all day. I was fine yesterday and even last night. How the heck do you get this sick while you sleep?
I am such a baby, I hate being sick.

My plan for tonight is to soak in a hot bath and load up on cold meds and then go to bed early. I sure hope I beat this early and it doesn't drag on and on. This is not a good time to be sick.

Enough ?

How long is a mother suppose to worry, stress over and feel irresponsible for a twenty year old daughter that just wont get her life together? A daughter that is lazy and refuses to take responsibility? A daughter that loves drama and refuses to listen to any advise given? or make any changes for her self?
When is enough, enough?

My Mother's Day

Even though I am still fighting off this head cold, which is now in my ears so I feel like I have been under water for a couple of days I still had a very nice Mother's Day weekend. My husband and daughter made me dinner last night and showered me with gifts while we sat around and ate ice cream for dessert. Allison had a few handmade gifts from school and a digital key chain for me. She was so proud of herself when she saw happy they made me. It really was a good day.

What was I thinking

I don't know what I was thinking coming to work today. Not only do I have one of the worse colds I have had in a long time but my endometriosis is really acting up and I am in a lot of pain. I think it's the worse it's been in over a year. Thank goodness my husband and i both have doctor appointments today. I am hoping for a magic shot of some kind to kick this cold out of my system. If I take any more over the counter meds I think my stomach is going to fall apart. The only answer for me is go back home soon and soak in a warm bath and go back to bed for a while before seeing the doctor today.

Birthday morning

Laughter will be contagious today -- and you will be the main carrier! You'll be spreading joy and a positive attitude wherever you go, and even the grumpiest people will simply love being around you. This is a great day for a party, networking event, or any situation where a lot of different people will be getting together to have fun. Some outrageous times are ahead of you, and it's time for you to unfold your most radical plans. You'll get plenty of takers.


How's that for a birthday horoscope? I'd say it's going to be a good day.

Well it sure is off to a good start. I got lot's of kisses from my 8 year old daughter this morning and then walked in to the office and found a birthday gift and my favorite bagel sitting on my desk. I feel so lucky!

Clinton Wins Pennsylvania



"Some counted me out and said to drop out," the former first lady she said at a Philadelphia rally. "But the American people don't quit. And they deserve a president who doesn't quit, either."

Well, I am not one of those who counted her out. I am still hanging on.

Sicko

I have been battling the stomach flu for a couple of days. I hate being sick and stuck in bed or on the couch. All I do is lay here and think about all the things I "should" be doing. To make it even worse, it's beautiful outside today. I would much rather be walking the dog or doing yard work then just laying here.

Sunday Happenings

I hosted a great candle party here last night. A house full of women, good food and a bunch of booze is always a good time! We talked and laughed for hours. I feel so lucky to have such a great group of women to call family and friends. I even made enough on my sales to get the item I was after and then some for free. I like free!

Today, I plan to take it pretty easy. Hang around the house and maybe do some Ebay posting. I am trying to raise some extra spending money for my daughter who is going to London for two weeks with my parents in April. I still can't believe she is going to be that far away from me. Makes me freak out a little when I think about it.

Damn you Pop Tarts

Why do you have to taste so good?



I think I am addicted to Pop Tarts.
A pack of these and a Diet Coke has been my favorite breakfast while driving to work lately or while sitting at my desk in the morning.
The package says it's a good source of 7 vitamins and minerals. At least it's not ALL bad! ha ha...right.
I need to stop.

Family Stress

I have two daughters, one is eight and in the third grade and the other is twenty, lives with her no good boyfriend and has a seven month old baby girl.
Which daughter do you think stresses is me out more?
I'll tell ya, these days it's coin toss. It's a wonder I am not an alcoholic by now.

T.G.I.F.

I am so glad today is Friday. I am having a heck of a time kicking this kidney infection. I am still not back to feeling 100% but I am getting a little better every day now. I will never wait so long to see a doctor again!

Tonight I offered to take care of our seven month old granddaughter. I am really looking forward to it. Taking care of her has got to be the best medicine I can think of right now.

iGoogle

I love Google and it's fun Googliness. If you iGoogle for your home page and haven't checked out the themes lately, Gooogle has recently added pages of new looks to chose from. Fun! I love the "Grass" theme but I think I am going to stick to the "Taurus" theme for a while. It's so damn cute.

Kidney Update

I think I am finally feeling a little better today. My back still hurts really bad and I am super tired but some how I feel a little better. Maybe the antibiotic is starting to kick in. I hope!
