Infestation

I should be blogging my birth story, and I can’t wait to do so, but for now, I just have to put in a quick post to say we have spent the last 2 days dealing with a lice infestation!  Imagine my horror, coming home from the hospital on Saturday with a newborn and discovering lice [...]

Planning The Sweet Escape…

I always wondered why families did it.  Why do moms take their sick kids out when they should be at home recovering?  Shouldn’t they let them recover in the comfort of their own home? 
Well, now I know.  Two months of near-constant sickness and now I get why sometimes you just have to push through it.  [...]

Why, Dwight, Why?

I love you, so why do you have to make life so difficult?  WHY?
I really just want to pull my hair out dealing with him lately.  We’ve really been dealing with some stuff.  Nothing major, but at the same time, just frustrating. 
Like yesterday morning, when I was woken up at 5:30 a.m. by a phone call.  Another 2-hour [...]

Honestly

Honestly, It’s been a rough few days.  And I’m going to vent, knowing my husband reads my blog, knowing this post will probably tick him off.  Honestly, if he comes out of this ticked off, but knowing me better, it’s worth it.  And it’s not that he’s not a wonderful husband.  I’m a very lucky [...]

Extended Stay

My husband flew his brother out here on Christmas Eve.  The plan was for him to come in, hang out, and maybe do some work in order to earn some money, (he’s currently on disability and we figured it would be a good way to help him out and get some stuff done around here [...]

Just Close Your Eyes And…

Breathe.  In, then out.  Get control of yourself!
That’s what I started telling myself when I began experiencing these symptoms last night in bed:
Rapid heart beat, pounding heart or palpitations  
Smothering or shortness of breath sensations
Nausea, bloating, indigestion or abdominal discomfort
Dizziness or unsteadiness
Feeling light-headed
Derealisation (feeling unreal or dreamy)
Fear of losing control or going crazy
Paresthesias (numbness or tingling [...]

Negative

Things have been so stressful lately and I haven’t been able to figure out why.  It’s not like there’s one major event going on in our lives that’s causing the stress.  It’s more like there’s a little bit of everything going on.
Scott’s West Point reunion is this coming weekend and I’m not even close to being ready to [...]

At Least I Have The Office

My husband called me to let me know he wasn’t going to be making it home as scheduled.  He was supposed to be flying in from a business trip in Arkansas, but his flight was delayed and since he’d end up missing his connection, he decided to just stay there one more night and fly [...]
