Getting Back to “Normal”

Monday, March 15th, 2010

I’m still trying to adjust to having the computer back and having floor where there once was a gaping hole of concrete. We can’t mop that area of the floor until Easter to make sure the grout has had time to dry, which is driving me a little batty. I know that this doesn’t mean [...]

Earnings

Sunday, March 14th, 2010

It’s been a tight few weeks, given we’ve had to pay for tiling supplies and the like and try to keep up with bills when income is low due to having the computer out of commission. It’s been hard. I even debated going and begging for the gas station job back, but being in there [...]

Hang-Ups: Weight, Health & Pscyhe

Friday, February 19th, 2010

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the dieting aspect of my life and the reasons why it’s so hard for me. I know some of it is due to the sedentary lifestyle I lead which is partially choice and partially the fibro. I need to take the choice part out of the equation and [...]

Doing Myself a Disservice

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

I’m hoping to rectify it though; but at the risk of sounding weird I’ve been having in a contradictory manner, you know like discovering you have eczema and then don’t actually look into or use any eczema treatment and wonder why you’re still itching and bleeding.
Well, that’s what I’ve continued to do with my [...]

Work & Health

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

I haven’t been writing about this issue because I wanted to get it resolved with my family and my employer before I spoke of it online. It was common courtesy.
I’ve been having issues with my health at work, again. I spoke about the fact that I pulled out my shoulders and was having flare-ups. [...]

Take Things Slow

Monday, January 18th, 2010

I got chastised a little today by the chiropractor for attempting the “Couch to 5K” before my body was ready. He said, “I bet it’s called you on it, hasn’t it?” and I said, yes, definitely. I’ve hardly been able to do anything the past few days. I keep meaning to get up and go [...]

Long Days

Sunday, January 17th, 2010

There have been some interesting things going on internally lately, we’re sort of reorganizing and rearranging, a bit of a parallel to what has been going on with the house. Our clean-up efforts have slowed down a bit in the past week or so because we’ve had other things that we’ve had to catch-up on, [...]

Stabilizing?

Saturday, January 9th, 2010

I’m hesitant to call it that because there’s still some dregs of issues and tiredness and irritability, but I suppose that may also be the last of the sleeping pills coming out of my system as well. I haven’t taken them since Wednesday and I’m tired and sore but we’ve also still been doing a [...]

Psych Update

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

The first appointment of the new year actually went really well. Max did wind up going (he’s full of gloat) and it wasn’t anywhere near what I thought. His motivation was actually to show the psych another of us given he realized that the D.I.D. diagnosis isn’t officially on any of the paperwork. I guess [...]

New Year Clean Up

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010

We’ve spent the past two days working on the clean-up and making a lot of headway. It’s really helped us to have a chart listing what is the priority and which order we’re going to attack things in. It’s made a horrendously huge task manageable. Hubbie’s been working the past couple of days and again [...]
