Thanks again Wildcat, it originally was my bosses thought a year ago, I didn't think it would make much of a difference until I looked into it more.

My thoughts today have gone erratic once again. Leading back to the exercise problem I have, the more "extra" I do, the worse I am. I keep hearing of all the "so-called" benefits and have not come across one that actually "does it" for me or means anything to me (the long term health benefits mean absolutely nothing to someone who doesn't care about life at the moment or someone with congenital heart disease, high blood pressure and other health problems which "exercise and diet" will not fix without medication for the rest of my life, so what's the point?).

I had decided to walk to the mailbox (because I don't want to drive my van more than necessary till I fix the alternator) which is a round trip of 1/2 hour+ at regular pace, took the little dog (he is 5 pounds) and my daughter. I thought well this should be fun, the sun is shining I am spending some time with my daughter and my doggy, I should be getting a cheque in the mail. I was really positive at the outset. The more I walked the angrier I got, I don't know why, my mood just deteriorated, the kid was fine, the dog was fine, didn't run into anyone I didn't want to, it was sunny and warm. When I got home, I was still angry and I didn't get much sleep last night.

Today, I am sad, tired and having a difficult time concentrating on my work. I want to cry, but am holding on as best as I can. I am going to work late tonight, in case the van decides to act up on me again so I am not stopping rush hour traffic when I stall out and have to boost or change the battery. I just need to get 3 more trips out of it before the weekend so I can pick up the alternator and put it in. My hubby even said he would come out and help me with it (nice, it is easy to get at, so I will make him do most of the work, while I fix the starter on his truck, then maybe he can start getting himself to and from appointments (once the ramp is down and he is able to do steps on his own).

That feels a little better. Whew!!!!!

dealing with stress

Wildcat,

Follow your gut, you are her mom, and you know her better than any of the professionals out there. If you believe it is more or less than what the professionals say stick to your guns, and roar.

You are a good mom. I know alot of moms out there who just ignore things and hope they will clear up, but definitely being proactive now may prevent further problems later.

Hey everybody,

Just an update, stupid van decided to completely crap out last night, made home and parked it then nothing. Pick n Pull was closed @ 5:00 so I had to wait till this morning. My neighbour (sweetheart that he is) lent me his Mustang so I could go and pick up the alternator. He saw me pulling the old one out and asked if he cold lend me his Jeep or Mustang, I refused at first, and then I thought heck no-one offers to help very often so what the heck and I called him up and took his offer. Got to Pick n Pull @ 9:30 and there was one of my van with my size engine and alternator in it (whew grabbed it). Lots of guys looking at me and offering to help (even though my son 6'5" was with me), I am hot, hot, hot, Went and got it tested Part Sources computer was down and Canadian Tire took forever to find the right plug for it yay it worked. Took it home and my son and I put the alternator in, wedging it this way and that way, tightening this and that and voila, I am at work now, got here around 12:30, van is purring like a kitten and doesn't seem to be acting dumb.

I am Ms. Mechanic now, so hopefully I can get my hubby's truck a-working this weekend (it should be fairly simple starter or battery cable).

Everyone have a great weekend and enjoy your friends and family this weekend.

Love ya'll

List of Good Things That Have Happened Recently

My van is working now, my son and I fixed it. My neighbour lent me his Mustang to pick up the alternator (he offered, I didn't have to ask). Got checked out at Pick n Pull (hot, hot, hot) and many offers to help me (not by really cute guys but hey it's the thought right?)
Everyone have a great weekend and let's see if we can have lots more good stuff added to this list by Sunday.

List of Good Things That Have Happened Recently

I will begin this week off with a few good things that happened over the weekend. Again, I am bragging but I will take what I can get.

Got housework and laundry done, took down Christmas lights, cleaned out the shed, took the empties in (wow, holds their value better than RRSP's), tidied the yard, my son took down the wheelchair ramp (hubby can now do the steps), son and I cemented the satellite pole (so we won't have to keep going up and down to reaim the satellite), my son and I fixed my hubby's truck. My daughter and I went shopping and she bought another vampire book.

The sun shone for most of the weekend and now winter is back (hiding all the ugly mud).

All in all it was a really good weekend.

I hope to hear about some of the good stuff that happened to you guys over the past few days.

Well my work day is almost done, I am officially pooped for the week, (please see the list). I am going to go home, make supper, maybe eat and then go to bed.

Husband's truck works now, just a loose battery cable, starter is on the bottom of the firewall so really hard and awkward to get at.

Have a great night everyone.

List of Good Things That Have Happened Recently

Sorry Wildcat, I can't remember the name of the book, I will ask my daughter. She is really into the Twilight Series, she has read it a million times and watched the movie a gazillion time (she is so excited waiting for the next movie to come out because we used to live by one of the actors and I hung out (drank) with his mom).

As for my payroll lady, we sat and discussed the matter of my getting the proper deductions and I showed her how to do it, and she is fully informed now and has no issues with following the proper procedure (yay).

Woke up @ 1:30 a.m. with what felt like a spike being driven into my skull, so I took a couple of painkillers and went back to bed, I didn't get up till about 10:00 am. I called in to work to let them know and I got to work @ 10:30. Headache is still there but not so bad I can at least function moderately.

I may just put my head down for a short rest in between clients, I don't know my thoughts are jumbled and it hurts to think.

reading what others are going through

Unlike you, I hate to write things down, give me a keyboard and access to the internet and I am fine. This way others can read what is written (my writing is atrocious).

I do get what you mean by knowing the extremes and wanting to know about the soft edges and the squishy middle. It seems it is either way good or way bad the stuff in the middle or along the edge seems to get lost somehow (maybe because we go from one end to the other without stopping along the way). It is not that we don't try to take our time to do this, it just seems to be out of our control, and no matter what we try to do or say the edge or middle seems to slip away faster and we are stuck at one of the extremes.

Focus and normal times are far and few between, so if you remember what they are good on you, you know what you are looking for and have something to strive for.

Yep, they are migraines, I can't take any over the counter meds for them as they do nothing for me now. I take minimum T-4's and have even had oxycodone depending on the severity. It's usually take 2 t-4's crawl into bed, cover up to the neck and go to sleep till it is gone or it wakes me up again.

Well gonna get back to work now.

Have a great day.
