So, it seems that all three of my kiddo are sickos. My son had been coughing a bit all week, but after school it was clear that he was actually getting sick. He has had coughing fits non-stop since he’s been home. His nose also won’t stop running and he has a fever. Our middle kiddo has complained of a sore throat earlier this week and hasn’t been 100% healthy, but she called from school this afternoon, asking to come home, because she wasn’t feeling well. She’s as white as a ghost and is clearly sick. It became even more apparent when she didn’t even want to go to dance! For her, that’s everything so it’s obvious that she isn’t feeling well. Then when our oldest came home from work, she was coughing and sniffling and complaining that she doesn’t feel well – she too has whatever this lovely bug is. I feel like it’s Murphy’s law that they’d be sick this weekend, because we’re so darn busy this weekend!

It’s my momma’s birthday today, happy 70th birthday momma!! Tomorrow night my parents are having a party to celebrate my mom’s birthday. Then, on Saturday, it is my hubby’s Christmas party for work. Since our oldest is now working at the airport, we’re going to the Christmas party with her this year. My parents are going to watch my son for a few hours, while our middle daughter is dancing (she has extra practices on Saturday night). Then, my dad will take our son and pick up our daughter, plus a friend (she’s not really comfortable babysitting alone) from dance and bring them back to our house, where they will babysit together, until we get home from the Christmas party. Sunday morning, from 11:00 – 2:00, I have the Trigeminal Neuralgia support group that I joined. I have not yet been to a meeting. I’ve only gone to the light up the bridge teal event that they held in October. They haven’t even had a meeting since then, I haven’t missed one, the lady who organizes the meetings has been busy herself , so she hasn’t had a meeting in a while. I don’t know how often they generally have them. I’m a bit nervous, as I don’t know anyone. But, I think that it will be good for me to meet and hear the stories of other TN people. It will help make me feel like I’m not totally crazy or alone. Or at least, it should!!

Well, I’m going to go to bed now. I will see you tomorrow… that sure sounded strange! No wonder I don’t normally write that. It sounds strange and doesn’t really fit. Oh well, too late for now. I’m too lazy to go back and delete it so it’s there. What I should have said is, night all 🌛🌠🌌

To help with research and treatment for Trigeminal Neuralgia please go to http://www.tnnme.com (Trigeminal Neuralgia and Me) to sign a petition to have the World Health Organization (WHO) add Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN) to their “Health topic list.”

You would think that I could change the font on a program like this. Not that it’s a huge deal, it would just be nice to change the font depending on what I felt like that day. Oh, well. Did anyone go driving anywhere today? Weren’t the road conditions the pits? The wind was so strong it felt like it would blow you into the wrong lane, of course that didn’t actually happen, but it did blow the snow everywhere! Snow from everywhere that you can imagine was blowing , you could see it coming off of the buildings and houses and other cars, the side of the road, piles that had already been plowed. It was just out of control windy. It made -16 Celsius, feel like -32 Celsius! Yup, it was just out of control. So of course I worried about driving my daughter to dance for like half the day, because that’s a great use of my time… worrying. Then, I get in the car and the radio host proceeds to list all of the accidents all over the city, she talks about random drifts of snow, because of that damn wind, she talked about white-out in areas of the city and the black ice and well accident after accident! I felt so damn reassured. Obviously it was fine, we survived the wind and the driving was without incident, I just really prefer not to drive when the roads are that bad, but my hubby was at work and couldn’t leave early. My daughter and him were riding together, so he had to stay until she stayed. Even my 6 years old son said,” I don’t want you to drive in this crazy wind blizzard mom!!” My hubby tells me that I live in the wrong place to hate winter driving as much as I do.

My Auntie Marilyn arrives tonight! yay yay yay!! She was always my favorite aunt growing up (although Auntie Jo Anne was a close second). I don’t know if it was because she was so much younger than the other adults, so she did things with us. I just have always found her very easy-going and relaxed, very easy to talk to and be around. She was always just herself, I never felt like there was the fake, acting a certain way that adults did, that kids always picked up on anyway… well, at least I did! Anyway, she’s here for my mom’s birthday tomorrow. As well as the party on Friday. She’s here for a week I think, so hopefully we get a chance to visit with her without a million other people around. Her daughter, my cousin Shania lives here, so of course they’ll be spending some time together. I guess we will see what happens. I could always visit during the day, while the kiddos are in school. We’ll see.

Well folks. I think it’s about that time for me to go to bed and for me to stop writing. Happy Birthday tomorrow Momma. 70 years!!! wowza!!! That’s crazy – you don’t look a day older than 20…I love you Momma!😍😘😚🎊🎁💐💋🍰 Night all🌛🌠🌌

Long Day…

Today felt extremely long to me. After we dropped the kids off at school, I had a little nap. Then I had my doctor’s appointment (which, by the way, turned out to be the real appointment. However, I found out that it really wasn’t my mistake-going on the wrong day last week! My dr told me that she saw her nurse making appointments for the 3rd & 4th and that she had to tell her that she wasn’t available to see patients on those days. Her nurse was supposed to rebook all of those appointments and…let everyone know the new time, which she assumes Denise forgot to do! So, I was correct when I said that that was the date and time I was given – by Denise and that it was her error, not mine!!! I know I probably shouldn’t feel so much like gloating, but Denise was quite rude to me about it last week and looked and treated me like I was bat-shit crazy for coming on the wrong day and time. Did I mention it was her mistake??? He he he!!! At least I’m not totally losing my mind!!) Anyway…following my dr’s appointment, we drove home and picked up the kids from school. Then I had to immediately take my son to get his immunizations and flu shots. We both got the flu shot, well I got the needle and he got the nasal mist. Then he had two immunizations in his left arm. We did my needle first, to show him that it wasn’t that bad (even though my arm is super achy now…). He did really well. No tears at all. He said that it hurt and his arm was really bothering him all evening, but he did well. From there, we quickly drove home and picked up my hubby and my dancing daughter. We dropped her off at dance and then did some Christmas returns at Walmart and Winners. After that we went to BP’s for supper. Then we went to Canadian Tire and bought Gabe a mini drone to replace the Spider-Man helicopter we returned to Winners. It was regular $59.99 on sale for only $23.99 in there Christmas clearance. After Canadian Tire, we drove back to the studio and watched some of Frozen in the van, since we had time to kill. Then, once dance was done, we drove home and it was around 8:45 by the time we arrived! I’m not used to such non-stop days!! I’m beat! I’m going to go to bed, maybe read for 30 minutes and then go to sleep. A nice regular time for me…for once!!! Night all💤😴

Getting Late..

It’s getting late and my daughter isn’t home from dance yet. We car pool with another family and they drive home today. The roads are soooo bad and I’m just a bit (yah right) of a worry-wart! I’m sure they’re fine. I trust his driving. These roads make me sick to my stomach when my oldest is out at work and she has to drive home. It just freaks me out!! I try to think positive and be thankful for her coming home safe and sound, but I have to force myself to think that way and talk that way in my head. It’s like a battle between the worst case scenario and being thankful that she’s safe. I’m going to drive myself crazy!! (Oh! My dancer’s home!! Yay!!). Yes. I have this ongoing battle with negative thoughts and it’s bloody getting annoying. Sometimes it’s like I can’t break away from creating all of these bad things that can possibly, maybe, somehow happen to my family and I. I literally make myself crazy with frightening scenarios of some awful thing that has a zero chance of happening, but I allow myself to get sucked in and freaked out! I know that it is unhealthy, but I do it anyway… so what does that tell you about my mental state? The dumb thing is that I believe in the power of positive thinking. I believe in the whole, you are your thoughts thing… and if that’s the case, I’ve really got to find a way to get a handle on all of the negative garbage. Because, I certainly don’t want any of that to come true – nope, nada, no no no! So now that you know the inner workings of my mind, I’m going to put this mind of mine to bed. While in bed I will NOT be negative tonight, I will think positive thoughts as I drift off to sleep. Positive thoughts, positive thoughts, positive thoughts… night all🌛🌠🌌

Brrrr…

Today was relaxing. No playing, no plans whatsoever. Just had to drive my son to his friend’s house to play and go grocery shopping. Other than that, things were quiet around here! My younger daughter was the only one home with me. So, we watched a bit of tv together. We also burned our Charmed Aroma candles that we got for Christmas. I was so excited to get one of these candles, I had wanted one forever! Inside the wax, in a baby zip-lock that’s wrapped up in foil, is a ring. You have no idea what the ring will look like or what it will be worth. I bought the sterling candles, so you’re guaranteed to get a sterling silver ring valued $25 – $5000. I guessed that the majority of the rings would be in the $25 range, so I was pleasantly surprised when both mine and my daughters were appraised at $200 each! When you take your ring out it has a code on it. You go onto the website and enter the code and it tells you what your ring was appraised at. It is kind of a fun thing. I also got my niece one of these candles for Christmas and my oldest daughter. We don’t know what there rings are like yet or what they are worth. I’ve definitely gotten my moneys worth already, as each ring is normally $25, but I got them for a deal, buy 3 get 2 for free (so I have another one that I can use as a gift, or I can burn it for myself, I do love rings!!)

It was chilly today, but it is about to get even colder…brrrr! this is supposed to be one hell of a coooold week! My aunt is visiting from the island too, it is supposed to be minus 30 on Wednesday, and that’s not even counting the wind-chill, Yikes! That is COLD!!! I wonder what she will think about that craziness – perhaps wonder if she is crazy or has lost her mind! My mommas 70th birthday is on Thursday and this is why my aunt is visiting. My mom is having a party on the Friday. We have a really busy weekend coming up. My moms party on the Friday, my hubbys work Christmas party (& my daughters) is on Saturday and on Sunday, I have my TN support group! I think I’m going to be so tired by Sunday that I’m going to need physical support… and probably a nap or something!! I’m sure it’ll be fine, just go go go. I don’t know when I’m going to get the chance to visit with my aunt!! Maybe Sunday or something. Hopefully there is a time that we can just visit with her, without a big group of people around!!

I think I am going to look into a new keyboard. This damn broken shift key bothers me more than I thought it would! I think I’m going to head to bed now. Night all🌛🌠

Yup… It’s Still Getting At Me! Ug 🤢!

It’s super late and I’m still not feeling 100%. Which sucks. We took the tree and all of our Christmas decorations down today. Then I had a bit of a nap. Afterwards, we went to our friend’s house for dinner. We haven’t seen Claudia and her family in some time, so it was a nice visit! We had supper, burgers, and bread pudding for desert which was really good! Then we visited for a bit and we also played cards…for quite a while, which is why it’s sooo late right now. I’m falling asleep while I’m writing this! I’m going to take a tummy pill and head to bed now. I’m beat! Night all💤😴

This will be short and sweet, as I feel like I’m on the verge of running into the bathroom to yack. All I want to do is sleep. It’s strange, I wasn’t that bad this morning. Then we went to my parent’s house and I started feeling a tad nauseous. However, it wasn’t that bad. But, as the day progressed, I just started feeling worse and worse. I was able to eat. I even had a glass of white wine. Then, after supper, we played my new Scrabble Apple game and I felt really bad. Super nauseous! And driving home I felt like puking, as I do now. So maybe whatever made me sick yesterday was/is a bug and not just something I ate/drank! Well, whatever the cause, I feel yucky and I’m going to go to bed!! Sorry so short 😐!! Night all 💤😴

Sick Day…🤢

Today started out okay. I dropped my son off at his friends, drove my daughter to her solo practice and read my book in the van while she danced. We decided to go to Value Village to see if we could find her anything for her Velma costume for dance. On the way I bought us some Starbucks. I had a bit of it and was fine. Then, as we got closer to the store I told her that my coffee wasn’t sitting right. I started gagging and was certain that I was going to yack in my van. But, we made it to the parking lot. I almost was sick in the lot. Then, as we were heading in, I told her to guide me straight to the back, to the washrooms. I almost didn’t make it, gagging and belching on the way, sure that I would just lose it wherever. But we made it to the bathrooms, just in time. This I won’t describe in gory detail. Needless to say, I lost the coffee and my lunch. It wouldn’t stop. It was awful. Especially being in a weird bathroom stall feeling that ill. I wanted to beam myself home. It was yucky!! From there, we left! I drove us home, then laid down and fell asleep. I woke up still feeling nauseous, but I had some soup and crackers. I still feel pokey now, so I’m going to hit the hay and hopefully go to sleep. I don’t know if the milk in my latee was rotten or what it was, but I hope it’s not an actual bug. Hopefully I feel back to normal tomorrow!! I’m heading to bed now. Night all💤😴

A Play Day!!

A day of playing. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that I am looking forward to. Backed to school. I’m not built to play for hours straight! Seriously, hours!! This little man of mine can be quite exhausting! He is just non-stop go go go. It’s super exhausting and I am ready for a quiet day. No indoor kitchen soccer, or Pokemon ball, or ping-pong ball throw. No more falling into the bed with a kiddo on my back. Nope. I want a nice, quiet day. Tomorrow he is playing with a friend for most of the day, so that will be nice it’s not that I don’t love the little man – I do, I just need a break!!

So, that was pretty much my day today… play, play, play. I already get tired out easier than most people do, due to being sick; not that my 6-year-old really understands that concept. Nope, he doesn’t see why I just want to sit and read for a bit I do get a bit a reprieve tomorrow. Then on Friday we’re probably going to my mom and dad’s house, which will be nice. We will probably play a couple of games with them, or with my momma, while my hubby and dad play car games again. Fun fun. This wasn’t working and now is – how strange. A few sentences ago, I couldn’t do the whole double space at the end of a sentence for a period and an automatically capitalized first letter, but now it is working again. Well, it stopped again. Don’t you just love technology? I am tired and don’t want to go to bed stupid late. So I’m going to head to bed. Night all🌛🌠

A Waste Of Time!!

Today was a pain in the butt!! Well, not all day. However, earlier in the day I left for a dr’s appointment. First I had to pick my younger daughter up from a sleepover in Summerside, which is right by Elerslie, so not that far from us. It took no time to pick her up. Then we headed downtown for my dr’s appointment. We payed for parking ($3/hr) and went up. For the longest time they ignored me. Then she finally said, “has anyone helped you or checked you in?” when I told her that no one had, she started to look me up on the computer. Then the mean Denise appeared out of nowhere and she said, quite rudely, “you don’t have an appointment today. Dr May isn’t here today. Why are you even here?” I told her that she was the one who gave me the date and the time, but she just glared at me and didn’t believe me. She said, “your appointment is next week at 1:40!” (Which isn’t even the same time I was there today!!) I know for a fact that I didn’t mess up the date. I remember specifically when she told me the third. I was surprised that she was working during the holidays. I even made some comment about how close it was to New Years. Oh well. The point was – what a waste of time! And, she didn’t have to be so rude about it. Not that I should be surprised by that. That woman isn’t very nice. This isn’t the first time that I’ve felt like she is scolding me, like I’m a little kid getting in trouble from the teacher or something. It’s pathetic and rude and pisses me off! Oh well. I can’t change her personality. At least it’s just the front desk lady, my doctor is terrific.

Once we got home, we didn’t do much. My daughter did a little bit of her homework and I read my book for a while. Then I made supper and after supper, my oldest and I just watched a Netflix show and then, well, here I am! I’m completely stuffed up and my eyes are watering… again! This same thing happened the other day at my mom and dad’s. I thought it was allergies. I don’t know. Right now it feels like I’m getting a cold, which would royally suck! Hopefully I’m wrong. I need to get to bed, especially if I might be getting sick. Besides, I’m super tired anyway. I fell asleep singing to my son. I wanted to go to bed then! So much for that idea. Well, instead of just talking about it, I’m going to hit the sack! Night all💤😴
