Monday, Monday
Good afternoon Cindy and everyone....
Cindy...I am glad Ron doesn't have a headache today. Good luck at your appointment this afternoon. I pray it isn't apnea once again. If it is...oh well you do what you have to right.
Vickie...I love that babies nest idea. That is great!! No worrying about the baby getting rolled on or smothered. YAY...you have an extra day to sew!!
Judy...good grief that is a lot of moves in one month!! I hope they are the people that are so rude to you! If that tenant left the fan on won't she have to pay for it? IDIOT!! I hope you manage to have enough time to get your party together!
Carla...I hope you have a safe trip to Lansing, MI today and a safe trip home tomorrow! I am sure Vinnie will be missing you too!
Eileen...I hope tonight is a good night at work. I know you have been so exhausted. It would be nice to get home a little earlier tonight! Can't you and Gary go home together and save on gas, plush could do some of the driving.
Cindi...Sorry about that defective crown!! I am glad you are on an antibiotic. That should help relieve the pain. I am so glad you loved the musical!!!
As for me..... I spent most all morning and part of the afternoon making phone calls. They claim they never got my information. I sent it to them twice already. I had to find someone to take me to FAX the info this time. I called and they did get it!! I hope that is all I need for them now!!
I am just exhausted and don't care if I do another thing today!!
I have a colonoscopy scheduled at 1:00 on Thursday. I don't mind the test but the diet and the prep is disgusting. I have limited food I can eat today and tomorrow. Wednesday is all liquids and starting the prep...YUCK!! If I am not on here you will know why!!
Prayers for our wonderful OFF Family and their families. Special prayers for those in need.
Much love 
and oodles of hugs 
to all....connie d
Connie: I sure don't envy you the colonoscopy prep. The procedure itself is a breeze.
Making "business" phone calls is no fun. I become very impatient at all the voicemail trees that businesses have these days. I'm sure I'm not alone in that. It's a good thing you followed up with the people who should have had your information so you found out that they didn't and could FAX it to them.
I am just running out of steam at this point in the day after yet another night of poor sleep.
Oh, the sleep study dr. had a couple of suggestions for me:
1. Don't go to bed until I am tired. As I get ready for bed, start paying attention to the self-talk I have regarding going to bed. Write it down and replace negative self-talk with more positive messages.
2. As I lay in bed, breathe in through my nose and out through my mouth exhaling twice as slow as I breathe in. Do this five times.
3. Picture in my mind a place where I have gone in the past that has been serene and peaceful. Focus on reliving the experience. Should I awaken during the night, repeat.
4. If I have trouble going to sleep, get up and go to another room in the house. He said that we can learn to associate bad sleeping experiences with our bed and bedroom and not to build on that by staying in bed and becoming anxious or tossing and turning because we can't sleep.
Oh, and I have to have a sleep study and he thinks it's a good thing that I'm seeing a psychiatrist to review my psych meds since several of them should be helping me to sleep and they aren't working very well at this point.
Hugs and kisses,
Cindy P.
