Another early morning for me

Well it is about 1:45am and I can't sleep. I don't know what the heck is my problem. I can fall asleep fast, but just can't stay alseep. Mr. Phil is sleeping like a baby. I think when I go to sleep I start thinking about everything going on with us and stuff. I wish I could just turn off my head sometimes......lol I try to play things out in my head to try to fix things, I worry about every little thing. Like getting Phil healed, no insurance for me, finicial issues, family issues, I think the biggest is me trying to get back on track and staying on the darn thing. I seemed to be stuck in this one stage, I will find out on Thursday if I have had yet another gain or not, that too I am dreading it. Anyway, thanks for letting me fuss and vent. I'm sure there are things going on with you guys also. I just hope that if so, you are handling them better than me. I am trying so hard not to get fed up and discourged, but it sure gets rough most of them time. Hope everyone has a great day. I'm off to play with the 3 little pups that we have been blessed with, they are a week old today. I am going to try to post some pics of them sometime this week. Cheryl

Cheryl, You are not the only one who is going through this crap!  I can certainly sympathize with you.  Just hang in there, keep your chin up, and keep plowing straight ahead!  Our prayers are with you!

Thanks for the kind words and prayers Scott. Cheryl

Cheryl sorry you are feeling so bad. We are all dealing with financial stree right now witht he price of gas out of sight and our company is laying off and we don't know who or exactly when but it has everyone up in the air not knowing what to do and that sucks!! Hope everything gets better for you.

Thanks Debbiejean, that sucks about your job. I just found out a couple weeks agao, that my position that I had up until 05/01 has been done away with. I gave that company 31yrs. I hope you get the news that you want real soon. Cheryl

I'm right there with you. I'm having trouble sleeping too. I go to bed with Bill and wind up laying there wide awake for 30 minutes to an hour before I get up and fix a cup of my "go to sleep" tea. I know it's stress but that doesn't change anything. I have about 6 weeks of unemployment left and still no job prospect on the horizon. I don't have the worry of losing insurance since that is through Bill but I know that we can't survive on his salary alone. I am one who tends to keep stuff like this to myself. I was advised last night that I need to let my support system, my OH family, know what I am dealing with and ask for support. All I ask for is your prayers, and your patience with me. And, if you know anyone who is hiring.... I will also be calling my PCP today to see about going back on antidepressants for a while. Dr. O'Bryan felt I may need that due to the sleep disruption.

Sound's like we all need to have a get together when we all can't sleep........lol Hate to hear everything that you are going through. I hope that you find something real soon. I too might be going back to see Dr. O'Bryan about all of this, I wonder if he takes IOU's........lol. Just trying to add some humor to all of this. Beat's the heck out of crying all the time. Cheryl

Good morning Cheryl, I have had you in my prayers.  Things will work out for the best, just believe that.  The thing about WL buddies, we all stick together.  Buddies we don't even know we have sometimes.  I read this forum and rarely post but my prayer book sits right here by my computer and I make notes. Take care tannis z RNY Dr. H 467/345/200

Thanks Tannis, I too am hoping things get straighten out for us. We need some good news for a change. So how is the L2L going? How many folks are coming that you know of so far? Cheryl

Cheryl:

We are all in this together.  I completely understand the "no money blues!"  I work two jobs and still have a horrible time making ends meet.  The only thing that keeps me sane is that I have adopted a new personal policy..."If I can change it...I do.  If I cannot change it, I don't worry about it because worry makes me CRAZY!!!!!"  I leave a bunch of troubles on the alter each week at church.  Sometimes I just can't fix "it"...so...I try to make the best of what I have to work with. I love you, precious.  Please know that you are in my prayers. Kisses! Freddie
