****Wild Wednesday Roll Call***

Good Morning Everyone,
I cannot stay asleep tonight.  Between my back and hip pain, and my cough from my sinuses, I am up and down and up and down.  Not sure I will be able to get to work in a few hours.

I am also struggling with some depression that is really getting bad.  I am talking about it, because I tend to isolate, and keep to myself, and that only makes things worse for me.  I am doing my self-care and taking my meds, and going to my AA meetings, and all that.  If you are one to pray, I would appreciate some prayers.

Wednesday will either see me at work, or in bed some more.  In the evening, I will attend my group therapy session regardless.

Hope it warms up a bit out there, as I am not crazy about the freezing cold.

Hugs,
Trish
 

I don't know you but I'm also up so good morning to us both   But am up cuz my 10 old  son is sick just a feverbut did  threw up about 20 min's ago or should i say he had the dry hives for this will be his second day home from school. Today Wednesday is my schedule day off and i was hoping to be home alone to clean house. oh well maybe next week. I'll say a pray that you find some relieve and can get some sleep.

sweet dreams...

 

Thanks Tina,
I am so sorry your little guy is sick.  I hope he feels better soon, and you are able to rest.  It sucks when our kids are sick.  It hurt me more than when I was sick myself.

I hope you do not catch whatever he has, and are able to stay healthy yourself.

Thanks for the encouragement.

Hugs,
Trish
 

Glad to hear you are taking your meds and everything you need to do.  It's not an easy road.  And although you may be tired from the lack of sleep - maybe going to work is what you might need so you don't continue to isolate yourself if that is something that you tend to do.

I'm going home and trying something "new"  I only have one night off, and normally as such I flip my schedule two days in a row which leaves me feeling crabby and irritable.  So, today, I am going to do the normal stuff  I normally do when I go home.  Then I'll go to bed and sleep until my normal time getting up for work.  Get up, have dinner w/ hubby, spend time w/ him until he goes to bed at which point I will have the house to myself - but will have to be quiet while he's sleeping.  I'll probably take down Christmas decorations and what not and do some light cooking for the rest of the week.

I also have plans to play some Wii and watch a chick flick or two while he's not awake :)

We'll see how it goes.  I can't say I'm thrilled about being up by myself in a dark quiet house all night....but it will probably work better then getting little sleep two days in a row and being witchy!

Have a great day!  Supposed to be a nice warm up over the next couple of days!

Thanks Pam,
I appreciate the thoughts about going to work vs. isolating.  I had not thought about that.  I am still up, and dealing with everything but the cough.  That has settled down, though I wonder if it is not because I am up, and not laying down.  Hmmmm.

Good for you for thinking about switching up your routine to avoid the crazies as I call them.


Hang in there.

Hugs,
Trish
 

I'd be at walmart shopping! lol

Hi all,

Well, busy day today.  Volunteer at the hospital and support group tonight!  Hubby has to surrender his car soon.  We will be down to one.  This will be a challenge to him.  If it were summer, I'd say, lwt me pick up a scooter to get around on and you can have the car but it's not. Anyway, you all have a great day!

Good Morning Trish & PA:

Trish - prayers heading your way, I hope you start to feel better soon.

Today is pretty much the same for me.  Work till 4, gym, home to treadmill, homework then bed.

Hope everyone stays warm and has a good day...

Morning Trish.. I'm so sorry you are going through so much.  I hope you can find the peace you need to get through the day.  I think Pam is right about trying to go into work so you can be around people.

Pam.. good luck tonight.  I would HATE being up at night in a dark house, but then again, you are used to be awake.  It's just the dark house part.

As for me, I'm working til 3:30.  I have to get to the gym and get back into the 5K training.  I've been going to the gym, but have not been on the treadmill in a while.. UGH.. guess I'll have to go back to week 3 or something to get back into it. 

Took my car to the shop yesterday and the mechanic there can't fix it.  I have to take it to the dealer.  So, I'm hoping it holds up until Friday when I am going to take it to the dealer.  I'm also hoping that it doesn't cost too much to fix.  Otherwise, I'm going to have to consider getting another car.  As much as I would love to get another car, I really can't afford the payments right now.  This one has been paid off for 5 years.  

Tonight I have my second appointment with my therapist.  Let's see how that goes.

Good morning PA...

I have the day off today to attend a funeral of a good friend of our family. He died of cancer at age 66, about a year after his diagnosis. Sad, sad occasion.

I am helping with the luncheon for the family so will stop and pick up some flowers for the tables this morning (carnations from Giant, or roses from Costco - I think the roses would be cheaper). Mike is meeting me at the church, but has to hustle back to work, so I will just stay through and we will have 2 cars there.

The long and short of it is that I have the house to myself for about 3 hours right now, till time to leave.  I'm going to do some writing, and start the crockpot so that there is dinner on the horizon. I have a pork tenderloin that I can toss in without too much trouble.

After it's all done, I will go to the gym and then head back home, watch Idol, and turn in.
