FAther's DAy was okay. wanted to go to the cemetery to visir my dad's grave.. but didn't get there.. Went to six flags... took Tyler, his g/f and her brother along with a friend of ours. Hubby still can't go on any of the big rides as his mouth is still quite sore from having 22 teeth removed... dentures should be in soon... I am running out of ways to make mashed potatoes. plus maybe when he gets his teeth, his mouth will feel better, and then he will FINALLY feel like smooching like we used to.. I really didn't feel like going to the drive-ins SAturday nite.. but went anyway as I kinda got to spend some time with hubby..but sometimes I feel out of place because alot of times one of our friends comes along too. and him and hubby talk about D&D and sit back and snoke cigaretts and drink beer that they sneak into the drive ins.. At the one we go to.. you are actually supposed to pay 5.00 when you bring in food from the outside. and one of these times the people on the gate are going to charge him. and I am going to be like 'I told you so.'
We went to my grandsons' b/d party on Saturday. ZAch turned 8 on the 11th and Josh was 1 yr old on Monday.. My hubby Tyler and his girlfriend stayed for awhile but left to go to a party for Samantha's Grandfather. so Bob fropped the kids off at the party, went to the mall to get his watch fixed, came back and got me, then we went to pick up the kids.. Then we went to the Drive-ins.
In 2 weeks I will be getting ready to go to my sister's in CT. I can't wait. Although I will miss the hubby, Tyler, My daughter and the grandkids... I NEEd to get away.. I need to regroup... take care of ME. i have been feeling at odds with things lately...I haven't been sleepy too good either... I am having anxiety attacks... anger issues... I have trouble expressing my anger....so I keep it statched inside. my feeling were always kept inside.. safe... just like the things I collected thru the years... well when they cleaned house and threw away alot of my stuff... all these thoughst that I kept tucked away began to resurface.... and combine with my feelings of losng my job,my mom and my hearing. I have no clue as to which way is up. This probaby sounds crazy.. but I feel ike I am in the lake, my canoe has tipped over and the life preserver is on the shore. I am kicking for that its worth.... but since I can swim.. I won't sink.. so I guess I will make it back to shore and I will get thru this.... I just have issues that have to get settled,, and with My mom gone now.. that's going to be hard to do..as alot of them have to do with her... like they give medal post humorously.. I will have to do things after the fact.... write a letter to mom then put a match to it... Thanks for letting me vent...
I keep trying to send out pm's to people and this site won't let me or it is my computer. Any suggestions?
Michelle I was trying to find you on facebook but can't. I am just going to give you my name on there on here, I know I shouldn't but I don't know what else to do, Marcy Smith Walker, I have Kenny Chesney on my profile picture too.
Michelle, so happy you joined our little group. Welcome.
Well I got a C on my test from last week. Oh well, I get A's on all of my quizes and homework so I should end up with a B in it. I have one more class and that is my final, you've heard about this already so I went dwell but glad it will be over soon.
Blondie, like you told me vent all you want. Just take a few deep breathes and let it out, it will get better. Are you off while your doc is off too? I sure hope so, you need it. Well take it easy and yell scream and vent all you want to, you know I do. I will take your advice on the praying and everything.
This morning didn't start out too well. I went to leave this morning and realized i forgot my books, good thing I was only in the garage, then came in go my bag and went back out to leave again and forgot my keys. I sure was hoping that was the end of the bad day and it was, thank goodness. although, haven't been in a real talkitive mood with anyone. Shocker I know because obbvious I have a lot to say now, LOL.
Ya Blondie, I feel you guys know me better than my family sometimes.
Well I hope all had a great weekend and all your hubbies and fathers had a great day yesterday.
Well this is my final and last week for summer classes and I am free free for the summer. I cannot wait until Thursday. I get to drive an hour and take my test which may only take an hour and drive another hour home. I will do more driving than taking my final. Oh well it will be worth it because I won't have to drive down there again. Phew.
Well I sure hope everyone comes back on here soon. Miss everyone.
It's a no wonder so many people are on so many meds now because doc's and pac's think people are depressed all the time. It is crazy. I sometimes think I need them but I know my problem and that is MIL living with me. Once we get this stinking trailor it will be better and I will be happier. I won't have to hear her talk to her stupid cat and make stupid comments either. Hubby has the one he wants now she just has pick out what she wants in it. It needs to be soon though because I am going blow a freaking gasket soon. I sorry I sometime just go on and on about her and all the stupidity but I am at my wits end now, its been a long 2 yrs now. :(
Oh my gosh I am watching the news and they showed a new sea lion pup was born at the pittsburgh zoo, how cute.
Ya Blondie, you don't need that. I don't know you personally, or should say face face, and you seem to be a pretty good spirited person to me. Sometimes I think I need that stuff to and at times maybe I do but I am not like that everyday. I was on one when I was going thru a bad depression part of my life and I didn't like how I felt with it. I felt out of it all the time. It was Paxil.
Sounds like you are going to be busy Blondie but how exciting too. I hope someday I will be able to help plan some weddings too but not quite yet. The grandbabies can wait a little bit too. I do want them but not quite yet.
Nita, it was nice to talk to you too. I really needed that.
Blondie, It is a drug used for depression.. a selontin sensory inhibtor....I googled celexa, and that's what I found out. It does have side effects which I didn't find out what they were as I didn't click on that link.. I think you have to be careful about using it with alcohol, and there is a special dosage for children as well. I hope this helps .
Marcy, it was great talking to you. sorry to hear your son is getting deployed.. but just know we are here for you.
