If you want something you've never had, you have to do something you've never done...

So, this week has been kind of a bust. Or not, depending on how you look at it. I can look back and name off the meals I cooked and the things I cleaned and the time I spent with Aaron or reading to the little kids, or the hours and hours and hours sleeping in and laying around with my illnesses. I read a book and two epic length fanfiction stories

This has been such a full on year for you, but in so many good ways, it seems. I'm really so happy for you that you and Grant found your groove again :) And also that you were able to go to uni, that is fantastic, and deserves a huge congratulations in doing so well, because it's NOT EASY to be studying while looking after children, let alone the fact that you are homeschooling 4 of them!

When I see pictures of your children, wow, you are doing such an awesome job with them.

I keep hearing such good things about IUDs and yet... well, it's good to have yet another person tell me how great they are. I'm glad it's working for you - definitely the hit-and-miss method of contraception is NOT a good idea (it's how I'm dicing with pregnancy now and I just don't know what I'm going to do about it.../whole other story)

This: the guy called me and told me I have a serious eating disorder that's beyond their ability to treat so he couldn't see me anymore. They gave me a name and number to some place I never called and I freaked out and just kind of dropped that whole experience down the well, so to speak.

Yeah, I would totally have done that too. I'm not sure if it's because of how he handled it or what... I would have thought that something like this would perhaps have been better done face-to-face? And perhaps they could have arranged a phone call for you from the people they suggested? I don't know. All I'm saying is, I would freak out if someone told me this too. HUG. I hope 2012 is the year that you can get on top of that.
