Random Updates

Since I haven't blogged in months here is a random update about everything:

We were all sick with something on and off for 4 weeks! Never in my life have I used Lysol spray or wipes so much.

Charlie turned 1 on February 5th. My niece turned 13 on the same day. (how cool is that)

Yatzia received good grades on last semester.

Mother in law still dealing with kidney stones. She started with a new urologist last week, and I think will have surgery later this week or next. Of course she doesn't want it, who does, but it needs to happen. I cannot wait for this drama to be finished. It's really taken a lot out of F and me.

My mother has not been feeling well. Winter is always the worst season for her and her depression. As long as she continues to work part-time, it's all we can ask.

My father has not been working out like he used to. My sister called and is concerned about him. Over 5 years ago he had bi-pass surgery for his heart. I called him and made sure he understands how important it is for him to take care of himself and work out each week. He seems to have a plan to get back on track, I was happy to hear that.

F is still dealing with his job issues. We had to hire a lawyer to get Sara Lee to respond. They finally did, and it wasn't what we wanted, but he sent the information in and were waiting for a response. His boss was really great, said lets see what kind of response we get back, before we do anything. So F will have a job probably for another month. F and I both know if we don't get the response we need, he will be fired immediately. We both just want this to all be over with, so we can figure out what to do and move on. It's emotionally draining as well.

Me- I'm doing fine. Busy as usual. Feeling overwhelmed most of the time, missing my friends, and my alone time. I've always liked being alone hanging out with myself. I really miss that. Miss my friends more. I hate that I always have to try and figure out time when we can hang out, or go out. Then have to cancel at the last minute because F had to work late, or Charlie is sick. Poor T she always gets canceled on! Which makes me feel worse. I'm in a constant struggle between myself, family, friends, work. I know it will get easier.
