Well Jeremy finally got his snow day. We really do not have much snow but I think we have some ice from all the rain yesterday. Unfortunately because of the weather I am stuck in the house again today. I have not left the house (other then getting the mail) since Sunday morning so the kids and I are getting a little stir crazy. Jeremy is taking Sam out to play in what snow we have left when the girls go down for the afternoon nap. I may also take a nap. I could not sleep last night. I had a million random things on my mind and could not get to sleep. Samuel cried out at about 1:30 because he heard me on the computer so I lid with him for a few minutes but then ended up on the couch. Emma woke up at 3:30 so I put her in the bed with Jeremy and I laid down with Chloe. Sometime after that Sam ended up in the bed with me again. Well Emma found a headband that she must be wearing at all times. Her hair looks crazy in it but she is still cute. She is so prissy. I have not mentioned about Emma using the potty because it has been nonexistent the past month or so. She had a traumatic experience a month or so ago on the potty and I have not been able to get her back on. Well the other day I found a cute Dora toilet seat and a Dora potty training kit with stickers and fun games. I have been putting her on the potty the last two days and she has been doing OK. Monday I am officially starting potty training. We will see how it goes. Chloe has been lugging her baby doll around the past few days. She is so cute with it. The other night she had it in a death grip when I put her to bed. She was so afraid I was going to take it from her. So the poor doll is looking pretty ragged these days. Well that is about it for today. I am hoping we are still having church tonight so I can get out for an hour or so.

 Oh, hey. Just dropping in to unload the million thoughts going on in my head. I know it's been awhile and once again I am writing this from my phone, so please excuse any mistakes. I am wearing my reading glasses since the last time I posted so maybe writing from my phone won't be as bad as it usually is.   I'm a little bit of a mess these days and I am entering the time of the year that is the hardest on me emotionally,  mentally,  and spiritually. These next few months are filled with dates that broke me. There are dates the next few months that take me back to the darkest days I have experienced.  I enter this fight with the demons that seemed to have attached themselves to me 22 years ago. Praise Jesus, He gave me victory from those demons, but this time of year they like to rear their ugly heads and I struggle. Cancer gave me so many wonderful people and experiences that would not be part of who I am now. But cancer and the trauma that  followed ...

  "I live with a difficult child. That is really hard to write, but the truth is that I have lived with a difficult child for about 14 years. The last few years have been unbearable at times."  I haven't written a post in a long time. The main reason is that I don't have a personal computer (my work computer will not let me log in with my personal email) and I absolutely hate writing from my phone, but here I am needing to write,so I write. When I logged on this evening I found that I had started to write a post on May 23, 2022, but never finished it. We had just come off one of the most difficult years with Chloe. I could be found most nights just crying in my bathroom or screaming, "I can't live in this house with her anymore!" Her treatment towards me had escalated so intensely that I didn't even speak to her for several days and I was a little afraid of her. She had been making so many poor choices at home and we just tried to keep them hidden. I...

Wednesday, October 26, 2011- You are cordially invited...to my pity party

Okay. So life has been hard these past few weeks. Well, maybe not life in general, but I have been having a rough time. So, I am choosing to have myself a little pity party. If you would like to join me, keep reading. I do not talk much about my fibromyalgia. One, I do not like to complain and I feel like I am just a big complainer when I do talk about it. Two, the truth is that if you do not have it you cannot fully wrap your mind or sympathy around the pain I feel every day of my life. Over the past two years I really have learned to live with it. My husband and kids would see a glimpse of my pain, but I even tried to hide it from them. I really struggle with letting people know my own hurt and pain. Almost a year ago I was finally diagnosed and was able to get a mild relief from the intense pain. Of course the first few medicines work for a few months but then I was changed to a more powerful medicine. Well, about a month ago my pain has returned at full force. I was scheduled to go...
