The date has been set for my surgery and while I am glad, it is also a little nerve racking. No, not the right word. Just flutters at the thought of surgery. It is a good thing, just makes me a little, oh I don't even have a good word for it!

OK, well the decision has been made. I am getting a hysterectomy. I have been having issues since the girls have been born (and no, I am not detailing them), talked with three docs, done tons of research and the decision has been made. Met with the doc today and because of endometriosis, he is also going to remove any tissue outside of my uterus ( Read more... )

'Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, "who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?" Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.'Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There' ( Read more... )

Well, the life is pretty much boring and everyday.  Larry and I had an in-depth conversation concerning my health and the assistance I need.  I am taking more time for me, whether it be shopping by myself or doing a girl's night out.  Slowly but surely,  And he is adjusting, mainly by me forcing him to adjust.  Kinda like him caring for the babies ( Read more... )

Well, I must say I was happy with my meeting.  The lady was sympathetic and glad to assist me in trying to collect child support.  She did say something that was sad to me - they have 18,000 cases and she personally has 2,000.  So she works the squeaky wheels first and then those outstanding.  Which I think is totally sad for those kids living in ( Read more... )

As of November 2009, the ex has been floating on child support.  He didn't pay until I informed DHS where he worked in January.  DHS sent garnishment and I received 1/2 month in February, full month in March, and then nothing.  Ex told me work slowed down and he wasn't fired, but not working.  Then I received 1/2 month in June.  Nothing since ( Read more... )

I have been suffering from a weird set of ailments.  The first is joint pain in my knees, hips, wrist and second knuckle of all fingers in my hands. The finger joints are swollen so much I can't put my wedding ring on.  Larry has been teasing me that I hobble around like an old woman.  Which, unfortunately, is exactly what I look like.  Fortunately ( Read more... )

Wooohooo!  Larry and I are going out on a date.  Larry's boss is given gift card to different restaurants around town by the vendors he purchases products from in the business.  When he heard that I wanted to go the Melting Pot for our date night, he gave us a $100 gift card.  Now mind you - I was thinking something much more conservative - like a ( Read more... )

The new babysitter is working out great.  I think the biggest thing is that she is 18 and a lot more mature.  She reads and sings to the girls and really seems to enjoy being with them. 
Otherwise, my life seems to be floating along.  I still do not have a babysitter for the fall - or even a daycare - but I am trying to be zen while frantically ( Read more... )
