  • Good morning.. I cant sleep.So here I am. I have been doing stuff for work ( I work from home so i can do most stuff whenever) I went to bed at 8:30 and woke up about 11 I tried to go back to sleep but couldnt so here I am. I have a pain in my chest i think I pulled something this weekend it hurts when I breath so that isnt helping the sleep thing much either.
    Glad to hear claire is doing well april!
    Have a great OP day all!!

  • Good Morning

    Hi Sherry & April.
    April have a good trip home, hope DDIL is okay. Sherry, becareful with chest pain, listen to your body, if it gets worse, you might wanna see your doc. Maybe for some relaxers or something and to check to see its not your heart. Hugs !

    Nothing new here, sosdd I'm enjoying this sleeping until almost 8 am stuff, I could get really used to it.

    Whats every one up to today?
  • Morning everyone, nothing much here. I'm up and ready for work a little too early but I'm not leaving until I have to. April, have a safe trip home. Sherry, take it easy and hopefully you'll feel better.

    My scale was mean this morning. Said I gained a pound and in my head, I know that's impossible but man did it bug me. I thought I was going to stomp it into never-never land. I had expected to see a loss and now I feel fat. Talk about mind games. So I'm trying to tell myself to be reasonable - I didn't overeat I actually underate all week - but it is hard. I bet many of you can relate with that.

    I had a lousy day yesterday and I'm hoping that today will be better. I did tell DS1 that both his dad and I resented that he wasn't working on his room and that just made me feel worse. So much for honesty. I did help DS2 with his FAFSA application last night so there's getting a bridge between us.

    I keep wondering if I'm overreacting to stuff because I'm off meds or am I "justified" in feeling the way I do. Does that make any sense? I'm feeling really insecure right now. Okay enough intospection.

    I'm taking next Monday off and DH and I are going to go over the mountain and return some of the stuff we bought for the room. I think we'll do lunch and everything. So 3 days of work left and then another long weekend.

    Sorry about the depressing post - just be thankful I didn't write yesterday afternoon.
  • Good Morning Gals,
    I am off work today.short work week for me

    I only work Monday & Tuesday and Monday was a Holiday Cool
    except no $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

    Husband has a man visiting that is training his office staff & how to use some new softwear for our website..............we sell merchandise...so I am making lunch today.Yesterday we took everyone out.I told him I can make a nice lunch a whole lot less expensive! Homemade sub sandwiches are better anyway!

    Need to head out and walk BEFORE I do anything else!(or I wont do it at all!)

    April....you will miss that precious baby!
    Sherry..pay attention to chest pain (like Leens said)
    M Marie....3 day more days isnt bad.hopefully it will go fast!

    Take care gang.and enjoy this day!
  • Hi everyone!

    April how do you feel about going home? I am sure your kids enjoyed having you around.
    Marie your post was not depressing....that is what we are here for....sometimes we feel bad about the things we say and do but in the long run it is better to be honest about how you feel and your expectations. I don't remember why you aren't taking your meds......if you have bp isn't it a life long thing like insulin for a diabetic?
    Hang in there!
    Leens I am glad you have some days off.......are you doing some things you enjoy?
    Cin home made subs taste good.......good job on the walking....I might have some company for lunch too......I am taking all this week off and then start full time days starting on the 12th for a few weeks until my job sorts itself out......so I am going to do some things I want for the next few days....mostly hooking up with my girlfriends....we have done most of the housework.....dd's and hubby cleaned the whole garage last night and did all the recycling so the only job now before the snow flies is the basement.......with all these disasters everywhere I am clearing out my basement of everything we no longer want or need and storing water, making everything water proof, and preparing for the worst....our basement has become a holding zone the last year or so and it is time to deal with it.

    Sherry I hope your chest is feeling better.....let us know how you are doing.

    Cathy what is happening in your world these days.......have hardly heard a peep out of you....miss you!

    Well I best get the girls out the door......dd 13 is rushing around doing her hair etc for school pics.......must give her a squeeze and go wake up my little one.

    Have a great day everyone!
