On our way home from mom and dad’s. Had a good meal, a nice visit and played the monopoly card game. I was a bit,annoyingly, resistant. I’ve never been a fan of monopoly. It just goes on and on and on and on and on… It can get ruthless and, yes it’s just a game, but I’m not one of the super-competitive types (unlike my hubby…& my kids). I’m going to come across as a bit dopey, but I’m not good at taking people’s money or cards or property…well, it’s not that I’m not good at it, but I feel guilty or “mean”. I don’t know. I guess I’m just a suck…

We got home and I started to feel super dizzy and nauseous. I’m not sure why. It’s not a nice feeling. I hope I fe l okay tomorrow, because I’m meeting my coach (Shaniice) tomorrow at 12:30 and in the evening we’re going to visit with some friends. Their oldest is one of our middle daughter’s close friends. It’s her birthday party tomorrow and we’re going to help out where it’s needed and then just hang out and visit. I’m looking forward to it. We always have a good time when we see them. So, I hope that this yucky feeling goes away. It’s funny how used to pain I am, but when other things, seemingly less severe hit me, I still feel just as yucky as anyone else would feel, if they were dizzy and nauseous. I sometimes feel like it’s so normal for me to be feeling bad, that when I feel like tonight, it’s like my family’s reactions is non-existent. How t that I need them to feel bad or sorry for me or anything.  Just a small recognition that something’s off, I’m not feeling well. Now when I feel like I do tonight and I say something about it I get nothing. Oh well. I guess I’ve used up all of my “I don’t feel well” complaints for the year, or more like, for a lifetime!! Oh well. I’m a survivor and, even if a little “aww, feel better” or even a”can I get you anything” would be nice, life’s not over without it. I just had a little gravol and I’m going to bed. Fingers crossed for feeling better tomorrow!!

One last thing. When we got home my little man bit into a cookie and his already wiggly tooth got even more loose. So loose that, not much later, he pulled it out. A little early, and only one tooth, but of cours my hubby and I both broke into “all I want for Christmas is my two front teeth…”

Here he is:
