dede,

Wow hon when it rains it pours. I hope everything straightens out for you really fast.

Sl,

I love that thread hon! I read it every once in a while to get a good giggle. It is all so true. LOL How are you feeling today?

Ooh,

I am glad your appointment went well. That is great. Poor thing sorry cramps are so bad. =0( Have fun at your massage. I am jealous. Oh I want cookies. LOL

My update:

Okay well I think I'm going to make a dr's appointment soon. A dear friend of mine has confronted me and says she thinks I am a binge eater and need to go make sure everything is ok. Esp b/c I have diabetes as well. I guess I'm going. I don't want to be on meds tho. Darn it. I am in a confused mood.

Ooh... can you even walk today, or are you just too relaxed

!

Princess...
I am doing pretty well. Even though the birthmother situation has gone down the toilet

, I am actually kind of relieved that is over. But last night when I got, I found out we got our paperwork to start all the homestudy appointments! Yeah... I can't wait!

Man, I am so ready for the weekend!

ERICKA77 · 01-23-2004, 07:31 PM

Man oh Man, How I'm so glad to be here.
Been a crappy 2 months. We are moving to Florida. My hubbie has been there establishing job, house ect. He is there with my two dogs, while I'm still here in Texas paying our bills here. We figured 2 to 3 months, which was ok until I'm actually having to go through the wait. I'm about to go crazy insane. This is hard. I miss my doggies, and my hubbie. We were apart Christmas, New Year's, and his birthday that was last weekend. It is planned for me to go The first weekend in Feb....But my gosh this is taking forever.
My nerves have been shot for days. And that is not fun, because I can't focus. My mind is constantly thinking about him and our move. I need to chil out, because I can't eat or sleep. So I can't afford to loose any more wieght...lol...I'm currently staying with my parents, so I've been edgy with them as well as my co-workers and friends. Which it isn't thier fault....I just wish I could get my mind on something else. Easier said than done....Well I'll shut up now....Just wanted to rant....But for the most part, I'm a very positive person....just not lately.
Take care..
Ericka

Sl,

So sorry about the birthmother falling through. I am excited for you about the homestudy stuff. We will be starting that after we move. Whoo Hoo. =0) I am so tired today I had a bad day yesterday. And today I have to clean house and I just don't feel like it at all. Are you going for foster or adopt?

Ericka,

It is okay not to always be positive. Esp in the situation you are in. I hope things get better for you really soon! HUGS

dedepcos · 01-26-2004, 05:37 PM

erika, I understand your fustration on the move and all. Dont worry I think more people understand why your a bit snappy. I will count down the days til your with your hubbie and doggies.

big hugs

ok, this week is starting out like crap. My fiance said this morning that he thought that today would be it for him and his job. WHich I understand cause we still have no paycheck. But, Friday after last week he said he would not write anymore check forthem and he did it agian and once again they still have not depostited the money. He is so stressed out and so am I. We are starting to snap at each other which I know will ultimately lead to a blow up cause he can sometimes really loose his temper. Well, he is still working today. GRRRR. I am so frustrated.

hugs

Dede,

I am so sorry things aren't going well with you and your fiancee. I hope ya'll get paid real soon and things straighten out! All men have a temper! I know mine does when things aren't going his way. And with us being as close to them as we are we are naturally the ones they are going to show the temper to b/c they know we are safe to vent to. MEN!

Hugs,
Heather

My dr. started me on Wellbutrin yesterday. He told me that I might lose some weight (yippee!) and have an increased libido (yippee for my boyfriend)!

I felt really stupid because I was trying to tell him what was going on and I was crying so hard I couldn't even speak. New dr. and I really liked him, he really seemed to listen, unlike the old fart I usually see. He even increased my glucophage to 2000mg after the endo wouldn't three hours earlier.

So, anyway, I'm having an okay day despite the -30 weather here.

dedepcos · 01-27-2004, 03:49 PM

Thanks princess. I know all men have some sort of temper. Most are definately babies. I brought it up casually yesterday when we were driving down the road. The are supposely getting paid this week for some work they did. Supposely he will get 4 paychecks on Friday or Saturday. I simply put i a nice way that I dont want to hear anymore about it if he doesnt get paid and decides to stay there more. It is so stressfull. He said that come saturday if he is not paid in full he will not return on Monday. SO we will see.

Today has been a pretty crappy day again, I still have not got dressed and its 2:45pm. The children will be home in about 30 minutes and as awful as it sounds I just want to be left alone. DOnt get me wrong, I love them..I love them so much as if they were my own flesh n blood. I am just having such a crappy time today that I wish i could just be by myself. I wish I could find the strenght to get dressed.

hugs,
denise

missycoyote, I guess we were posting at the same time. I am so glad that you like your new doctor. it sounds like he is a good one.

hugs
denise

misscoyote · 01-27-2004, 04:01 PM

dede,

I am crossing my fingers and am saying a little prayer for you that Saturday will be payday.

Also, I am giving you permission to not get dressed today. Tomorrow is another day.

slhightower · 01-27-2004, 04:43 PM

Denise,
What does your fiancee do? I am so sorry to hear that you guys are having those problems... and I hope they are resolved soon!

And I agree, if you don't want to get dressed, then don't. Have a PJ party when the kids get home!

Misscoyote,
I'm so glad you found a good dr. That is half the battle with PCOS... and it sounds like he's a keeper!

My day has been okay, super busy so I don't have time to think about things. My MIL and little SIL (14) are at our house, and have been since Sunday. Their power was turned off (they're having serious financial problems due to the IRS right now)... and so my husband and I had to come up with the money to take care of the bill to get it turned back on... hopefully by Thursday they should be able to go home... so that has things kind of turned upside down right now!

slhightower · 01-27-2004, 04:46 PM

Oh Princess...

Right now we are just working on an adoption. Our agency won't start the foster/adopt program until March... and we thought we may get into that when it comes... but the more we talked about it, the more decided that we were ready to do that. Right now I work, and once we have a child I will stay at home... but if got a placement and I stayed home, then the child was taken and put back in the family home... it would be difficult for me to work again at what I do... But once we have one adoption done, we will start the process to foster, since I will be home anyway.

dedepcos · 01-27-2004, 05:54 PM

slhightower,
thanks for asking my fiance is a gm at a glass company..they do residential and commercial along with shower doors and mirrors.

hugs
denise

slhightower · 01-27-2004, 05:56 PM

Oh, okay... I figured it had to be some sort of contract work! Man, that is tough, I sure hope things get cleared up!

Efiefi · 01-28-2004, 11:40 AM

Miss,

I need some Welbutrin too! I need to lose weight and gain libido. LOL My poor Dh I just push him away. I am so glad that he increased your glucophage for you that is awesome. He sounds like a great Dr. Wow it is COLD where you are! And here I am complaining about 30 degree weather. LOL

Dede,

Oh man mine is a baby too. They talk about how tough they are but let em get a papercut and watch out! I am hoping ya'll get paid on Saturday! You are right he doesn't have a right to complain to you if he stays there. Mine complains about how his work doesn't pay him enough. Well that isn't something I can fix. Only he can. So I don't want to hear it either. If it makes you feel better I will tell you I never EVER get dressed if I don't have to. I live in my pjs. How many children do you have?

Sl,

Sorry to hear about your MIL and SIL's power getting shut off. That sucks! Oh I understand what you are saying about the adoption/foster thing. Our classes start in May after we move and unpack. They actually have classes where we live currently that start in March but they don't finish before we move so we have to wait to take the ones that are available after we move.
