A gift from my children
Normally when my children give me gifts, I am thrilled beyond delight. Well not this time. The treasure that they so nicely have shared with me is their sickness. That’s right, I am sick. Today I am just trying to get all my work done on th...
Sick kiddies
Both of my kids have gotten that dreaded flue! My daughter so far is worse than my son, but that could change at any time. For the past three nights, I have got hardly any sleep. So I may need to invest in the best eye cream before I need to go to...
Lost weight
I really don’t know what happened here. Before the summer started I weighed in at 110lbs. Last week on got on my father in law’s scales and discovered that I now weigh 88lbs. I have no clue where I lost this weight. It’s not lik...
Summer dilemma
I have to say that summer is my most favorite season of the year. Except for one thing. Summer seems to be the season when my acne really acts up and then I have to spend a lot of time and money on an acne treatment to get it all cleared up. [...]...
Illnesses
It seems like when one person gets cancer, then you hear about a ton of people who have been diagnosed with this disease. This holds true for ailments such as mesothelioma as well. Earlier this month I was informed that an aunt of mine now has canc...
No work getting done today
I can always tell when I’ve spent too much time on the Internet. That is when the headaches start creeping in and are harder to get rid of. Well this has started happening to me, so I know it’s time once again to step away from the comp...
Health scare
Well let me tell you all about my night. Last night my husband and I were going to have potato salad and chicken. When he got home from work he wasn’t hungry so I dished out my own and then later went on to bed. A little while after I went ...
Sad news
Last night my aunt called me to inform me that my uncle was just diagnosed with Mesothelioma cancer. Now this is sad all on it’s own, except this news made me a bit sadder as he is the last of my father’s brothers to still be alive. And...
I need rest
I am so tired these days! I’ve been putting in some pretty late nights and getting up pretty early in the mornings. Plus, my mattress is probably one of the most uncomfortable mattresses on this planet. It always has been, even from the firs...
Disturbing phone call
Last night around 11:00 pm I received a phone call from one of my sister in law’s. My father in law was admitted to the hospital yesterday for chest pains and his new wife didn’t even have the decency to call any one of his children. Sh...
He fired his doctor
With the doctor shortage in our area, I was quite surprised when my husband told me that his father fired his doctor. Apparently they had differing opinions on how this man was going to get healthier. My father in law just wanted to go to the drug ...
Seriously bad headache
I don’t get migraines very often, but when I do…man do they hurt. All morning long I suffered with such a migraine that I didn’t even spend a lot of time on the computer. I just checked my e-mails and then went off the computer fo...
Cutting back on the food
So…were you all like me and seriously pigged out this past holiday season? Well here is a re-cap of all I devoured during the past week. Two turkey dinners (yeah, I cooked one), a huge Chinese buffet style meal, left overs from the Chinese me...
The light at the end of the tunnel
I think I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. In my previous post I mentioned about how sick I’ve been. Well I got some really strong cough medicine now so hopefully things will be looking up soon. I don’t th...
Will I ever get better?
Honestly folks I’m really thinking that I need to invest in some Orovo detox. I have been sick pretty much for the last month and it now starting to get on my nerves. First of all I contracted the flue and then for the past week I have had on...
Gaining weight
This past summer I was extremely pleased with myself when I finally hit my target weight of 110 lbs. Now for all you folks out there who are jealous of me, don’t be. I have as much trouble gaining weight as you all do losing it and I have a r...
Different type of acne treatment
Although I am now 40, I do suffer from acne. I had always thought that this type of infliction was for teenagers and not older people but in recent years I have learned that this is not always the case. I have tried almost every acne treatment avai...
It was bound to happen
I have had to sick little people in my home for almost a week. So it came as no great surprise to me when I woke up yesterday morning with a serious head cold. I’m not kidding. My nose is running a mile a minute and my eyes are watering like...
Two upset little people
Last weekend my two youngest were invited to a birthday party. But they were unable to attend as my youngest son was quite sick. And because I had to stay home with him, I wasn’t able to drive my daughter to the party. Well they were both in...
