Sick Sick Sick

I feel like I should be introducing myself! I've been gone so much. I'm just so darn tired of having sick kids, and NOW I'M SICK! ARGH!!! Actually I'm feeling better today, hence the post, but I swear I thought I was a goner there for a few days. Fever of 103 and everything! IT SUCKED! But now all is better and I'm back. I've been so depressed over hubby's job situation. Just please pray he gets this job in TN and we can start over. He still doesn't know if he is getting fired at the end of the fiscal year or not. It's NOT fair what they are doing to him, not to mention the stress they are putting on our entire family. I'm considering getting a night time job at the convenient store around the corner. I don't want to put the kids in daycare - nor would any job pay enough for me to make any real money - so I thought, ok... I'll just go check groceries somewhere. Hmmmmm Sad Sad day when mom's can actually make more money working some crappy stupid job than working in their profession and paying child care. It does suck to be a woman sometimes. I'll have to agree with that one! Anyway, that's what's going on in my life. Oh...did I say that I GAINED 9 pounds??????? WTH? It's coming back off, but it stayed forever, and it's coming off very very very slowly. Who knows what's going on with me, but hell, I just don't really care right now! LOL I'm just trying to function day to day. Ok - I'm going to get some cheese to go with my whine now! HUGS Kimberly

Oh sweetie~ That sucks--all of it!!!!!! I'm sooo sorry that you are having this strife in your life right now!! I'm sending you prayers right now, but I'm such a sinner, I don't know how well they will be received. I don't have much pull with the big man! Loves to you and your family, C

Well, you could you just give it a lick and make it all better?! LMAO HUGS! Thanks for the prayers...appreciate them! K

Consider it done! C (not gay)

Kim- (((((((HUGS))))))) and warm thoughts for you and your family. Love ya sweetie, andrea

Oh Kimmers- I can totally relate. It's sad when, as a 48 year old halfway intelligent woman, I can only work minimum wage jobs because my resume for the last 10 years says "MOM". But you know, it IS the most important job out there- even if the corporate world thinks otherwise. Hang in there kiddo. It's GOT to get better! I'm glad you are feeling better! I hear ya on the sick kids too- I ended up calling an ambulance last night at 1am....my daughter was coughing so bad and couldn't breathe- never had anything like this- turns out it's the croup! Now I know about the croup (only from reading though)- but I've never experienced it so I had no idea that's what it was. It was horrible though to see the terror in her eyes! She's much better today though. *sigh*

Reading the post about sick children brings back memories for me. I remember how it was hard to think it would ever get better. Especially if you r husband isn't very involved with their care. Then when I would comedown with it too! UGGG Hugs to all of you!! Kimberly I do know of the power of pray and I pray that your husband gets relocated in a good place with people of like faith. I think sometimes we block our own blessings with actions and attitudes but he always hears well meaning prayers for others. So Be Of Good Cheer. This too shall pass. I hated that saying when someone first said it to me but they were right. Have a Better Day! and a Great Tomorrow! Hugs Cil

I understand the job terrors. My husband and I will be making life changing decisions as my employer gave me a letter that says I'll be unemployed after June 2nd, unless I compete successfully for another job in the company. I'm sure it is much harder for you, you still have (sick) kids at home, my daughter is grown and out of the house. I wish, I wish, I wish (isn't that a song?) that your husband gets the job you both want and you do get to start over. With love and care, -Pam
