OT: Tuesday Chat | Arthritis Information

Good afternoon everyone.  I know, I have been slacking on the daily thread and I've also not been posting as much lately.  The last week or so ive been pretty down.  It all really started when my dad asked me to look for my grandmas reciepe (the one who passed away this past Oct) for holupki (stuffed cabbage).  She had sent us one years ago that she wrote out for us, so I scanned it and sent it to my dad cause Amy, his gf, was going to make it.  Her and Kelsay made them Sunday night when she was over there and my dad brought me back some and I had some for lunch after I came back from taking kelsay to the bus and thats when it really hit me that shes gone.  They tasted just like the ones that she used to make and ive cried both times ive had them and on the way to Walmart last night.  So I've just not been my normal self lately which is why i havent really been posting to much.

Hope everyone else is doing well and haveing a great, pain-free day!

Well... Everyone knows how the last 2 days have been going for me. But it is hubby who is soo pissed about it all. I am just in "Oh well" mode.

Anyways... I guess I am going to call in for my ticket to work and start looking for a job. That money we were suppose to of gotten back, was to help pay off the car and a few credit cards. which was suppose to get us to a good point. But now... we cannot do that.

So... that means I need to find a job. Kinda looking forward to getting a job. I am doing much better with the Remicade. Just that muscle mass is not much which I guess tires me out faster.

Hope everyone has a good day.

Last night I went to sleep around 4pm and got up around 3:30am and went back to sleep until 6:30am and got up to see daughter off to school, and then went back to sleep until 9:30am.

I am not really tired today, but just feel like I have not much energy. I want to clean house, but I just feel drained of energy. 

I called hubby at work and asked him if he wanted me to find a job, he said "for what?" I guess that meant No. Because he changed the subject.

oh well...

Well good afternoon all, Shannon I am sorry you are feeling down.  My dad has been gone 12 years now and it still hits me hard occasionally and I just start crying. 

This week started off pretty productive then my 14 year old came home yesterday with fever and a sore throat I figured strep again.  We just got home from the dr. and he said it wasn't strep and it just had to run its course.  Give her tylenol and over the counter cold meds.  He makes me so mad when he does that,

Sorry, to hear that Nora. I hate it when my kids get sick. I feel bad when mine get sick. But I do not deal with them when they are sick. Hubby tends to our kids when they are sick, so I do not get sick.

Hope your daughter feels better soon.

Well, I tend to my kids when they are sick, for the 8 hours hubby is gone to work. Most times when my kids are sick they want their Granny. So, I am kicked to the curb so to speak, have been for the last 9 years. My kids do not like anyone to be around them while they are sick, unless it is their Granny. I cannot take the rejection, so I send hubby in. Plus the last couple of years since son has been born I have given up all together, because I have been on the biologicals.

For the most part, hubby takes care of the kids when they are sick. I take care of hubby when he is sick. And no one takes care of me when I am sick. So... that is the cycle in my house.

 

Shannon, I am so sorry about the grief that you are feeling.  It is so hard...I remember the first year after my dad died just thinking that everyone should close their doors out of respect.  I knew he wanted me to go on, but it was hard, and sometimes it would just hit me. 

Joonie...sorry to hear about the money problems.  I hate money, ok, well, I would like it more if I had it.  Take care of yourself and give yourself time to really feel better

NV~Sorry your daughter is sick.  I have one that is sick too.  She is trying to do finals and sounding like she is a doggie barking(cough). 

I am down today.  I lowered the pred. from 5mg to 2.5.  I had to the headache and crap were getting to me.  I will have done almost two weeks by the end of the 2.5.  I don't think it is that...I just think it is everything...and the fact that the pain is still very evident!  I just want something to work! 

Oh, and my cycle for the family is I take care of the kids, the hubby, the doggie, and me.  Nobody really watches out for me, but I have to take care of everyone!*sob* I'm siiiiicccckkkkk
