She came through the surgery ok, Thank God!!! I haven't spoken to her b/c she's not in any position to talk at the moment, but I did get to talk to her mother who made me feel a whole lot better. Apparently the surgery went well, from what I understand, and she'll be able to go home in two or three days ( Read more... )

My oldest friend is in the hospital having major surgery today. I didn't even know until I talked to her step-father this morning. I wish I was there. She's had so many health problems and she's been through so much in the last year and I worry about her so much. We've certainly had our ups and our downs, but I love Deniece dearly and she HAS ( Read more... )

I've had the worst really sick flu crap going on... I've been sleeping a lot and really not eating much at all since nothing I did dein to eat wanted to stay down. I think I went 48 hours without eating anything at one point. Living on "cigs and caffeine". Later in the week I concentrated on protein since I wanted to make the most of the little ( Read more... )

Everyone who reads this knows about my problems with my back, depression and everything else. You guys also know that I've felt like I haven't connected with Jacob the way I've wanted to. It's finally gotten better ( Read more... )

Time to check in with all my LJ friends...I've been meaning to journal more frequently, but I never seem to get around to it, do I? I've also been thinking about starting a knitting blog (I just learned to knit about 2 months ago or so) but I can't seem to keep up with a personal one...LOL ( Read more... )

So this has been the week from hell for me @ home.  Let's start with the good stuff, though.  Christmas was great.  Jacob had a great time opening presents and got to see his Aunt Deniece for the first time in a year.  He wasn't shy with her at all.  Went right to her and happily played, cuddled etc.  She seemed to be really comfortable with him as ( Read more... )

I just recently found out that a very good friend of mine (HI KASHA) who I don't get to talk to very often keeps up with my life by reading my LJ.  So I'm feeling obliged to update more regularly now.  Good luck on your new job, Kasha ( Read more... )

I went to see my regular doctor today. I was actually able to make myself be completely honest with her about how I was feeling and what my fears are. That was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do, but I did it. She put me back on the Zoloft (100 mg) and is keeping me on the Effexor XR (150 mg). She also suggested that I get some ( Read more... )

I feel like I'm completely losing my mind. I've finally come to the realization and maybe even a little bit of acceptance that I'm dealing with serious depression issues and that they aren't going to go away just b/c I want them to. For such a long time I was able to put it all at the back of my mind. I didn't really have to deal with why I wasn ( Read more... )

I haven't posted in FAR too long. I changed computers, have been too lazy to download the Semagic client and hate posting on the site for some reason ( Read more... )
