So I haven't been blogging for awhile now. Something about November-January is just a lousy time for me. This year was compounded with finals and papers to do, and then I just didn't want to WRITE anymore!!
We've considered (and by "we've" I mean the doctor and I) Fibromyalgia as the cause of my pain....I'm pretty sure that's what it is. The meds help some days, other days - I just suffer. Today is one of those days. My arms/elbows are so sore, it hurts to lift them. Everytime I stand up, I feel like someone is stabbing me in the lower back. Taking the pills isn't working today. Darvocet, flexeril....nottouchingit.
I have 5 new classes this semester, including "Human Sexuality" that is taught by a 70 year old woman. She is blunt, honest, and HI-larious. It's my favorite class. In two of the other classes, we are doing a quiz or writing assignment every week in class - and in the other two - we have homework every week. I've been "Doing said homework" for about 8 hours now. I know for sure a couple things. FARMVILLE will not harvest itself, and the homework doesn't 'magically appear' while I'm farming on Farmville. *scratches head* I did actually GO to the website, read the article, and the 3 questions to answer. Just haven't opened the word document to write the answers. Yep - I'm THAT much of a procrastinator. Sue me. ON the up side, I completed a collection, and found 7 other collectibles today. YAY ME!
The girl-child has a boyfriend now. He's adorable, and gets along with the boys. This is probably b/c he comes from a family of SEVEN kids. They just had a new baby last week. I'm soooo jealous. "incept" it was a boy.....and there's already too much testosterone in this house.
Finally talked the older boy-childs into haircuts. Avery actually looks like a BOY now. I thought the long hair was great, but I think he got tired of hearing, "OMG - you look JUST like your mom at that age". (don't tell Ave, but he looks MORE like me now! ;) )
Trying to decide whether or not to mail school pictures to the father-person. Again, something about this time of year. :/
Got to see My Margie back in December! She's a grown-up now and has babies of her own! She is so beautiful and loving, and the best mommy!! Made me cry to see her - I'm so proud of her!
After I quit weight-watchers last year, I gained back the 13 pounds I had lost. +2 lbs. :( WELL - I'm proud to announce I am 15.2 pounds lighter, and lower than I was when I quit. Not doing anything special - just watching my serving sizes, and walking more. Parking far away from the school, from Wal-Mart, etc....and not eating all that JUNK. AND I have since found out, the Cymbalta I take for the fibro has a side effect of being an appetite suppressant, so that might be a helper too.
My mom had an auction. She sold all her 'clections, and most of her furniture. The house is for sale, and she has moved into Senior Housing. Being the emotional person I am - and this being the worst months of the year for me - I should NEVER have gone to the auction. That hurt. I haven't been to the house since she moved out, but I have a feeling I'm going to lose it. I do have to admit - her new apartment is just across the road from me now, and I see her more often. AND she seems happier. AND - she made me dumplings today, and I'll eat them for lunch tomorrow and forget all about the anxiety of the sales. LOL
My nephew ran away from home. At least he enrolled in school in the new town he moved to. The whole thing makes me sad. I miss him.
When you raise a child to speak their mind, be careful. One day, they will, and you won't know what to say. Girl-child had me speechless today. That's a first, right?
I miss my baby Sammy. I saw him at Christmas, and he's sooooo big now. I must, MUST make time to go spend with him and his mommy.
I am a great-grandpupmother.....did that make sense? My dog's daughter had puppies. She was my 'grandpuppy' and her puppies are my 'great-grandpuppies'. I should make time to go see THEM too. AND Caro-lyn and the babe. I miss them too.
Well, posting random junk like this has made my brain start working again, so I think I'm ready to REALLY do my homework, and has motivated me to making blogging a priority again. :)
