WIMTS- I've been really sick lately

 WIMTS Wednesday is brought to you in part by Angel @ angel  believes and brittany ciara @ not your average teen . So hop on in and join the fun . Come on it's easy click the linky then linkup with us after you write what you meant to say.


Six months ago when the doctor told me that I have fibromyalgia and needed to take meds... I said well that explains a lot. WIMTS was  "So thats why every cell in my body is screaming "  Monday when the doctor said "Dorothy you are Diabetic" ... I said that's not good ,but I'll handle it... WIMTS was just shoot me now! I'm not handling crap , I'm giving it to God. Then I'll start living a healthier life to reflect the bounty and healing I have received.

So this is how it is going to be... I feel horrid most every day. WIMTS was Thank you God for giving me another day. Thank you to my BFF for always being there to call and hash out my thoughts. I love you and appreciate you. Always. In case some of you don't know who I am talking about ; Angel is my real life BFF and she is one awesome woman.

 When I say that I will try to get back to blogging more than once a week ; I meant to say... I'm sorry I will try to drag my butt away from Pogo more often just to let you know I am still hopping (LOL) But I am a badge hound and it is going on 10 on a Wednesday ... that means Pogo badges are about to start for another week. See Ya guys I'm hopping on my pogo now...BOING...BOing...Boing...

WIMTS ... Back to school

When I met Ash's teacher , Ms. Commodore and she was talking to us about all the Wonderful things she had in store for her third graders. And that she was so happy that I decided to be a homeroom Mother again this year. I siad yes of course we are very excited too. WIMTS was "AYE,Aye -Commodore " Okay maybe not the nicest reaction making mental fun of her name but she was very VERY outgoing.
 When Ash told me that she wanted to look just like her new teacher someday ; I said that is wonderful honey. Did you notice her shoes? Ash is infatuated with heeled shoes. High heels ,low heels, clogs and slings - she loves them all. WIMTS was "That's great Honey but Ms. Commodore is a black woman and you are so white, short men follow you around singing. You can be as pretty as Ms. Commodore but no matter what God won't  change your gene pool. My sweet child is too funny. We have raised her to be so non-racial that she is almost anti-white. Not that I blame her... I know some White people and I don't like them much either LOL.

 When Danny laughed at me after i had fallen in the shower and said I looked like an angry little girl sitting there in the water. I said gee thanks butthead, get out of my bathroom... WIMTS was gee thanks buthead, get outta my bathroom. You see what I say all too often resembles exactly what floats through my head. No fluff, no suga, just what it is. That's just me.

 Okay that was fun wasn't it?Now join the fun. Click the link at the top there and tell us what you meant to say then link up . Not hard. If you get lost have your kid show you how... that's what i did.

I have felt awful all evening

I have been feeling very ... unwell all evening. Then while I was helping Ash clean her room, a terrible migraine came upon me. I got dizzy, disoriented and light-headed within minutes of that migraine hitting me. I just felt awful. My BFF, Angel, called me during that  odd episode and I vaguely remember speaking to her. But it felt like I  was fighting through a thick veil just to hear what she was saying. Then I was out for like 20 minutes. I thought I had been out for hours but then I saw the clock and realized that I had only passed out for a little while. I got up and ate an egg(protein )so I could take an ibuprofen. Then my big dumb butt got in the shower... Have you ever done something kinda dumb and then wonder what got into you? I was still dizzy and light-headed and I got into the shower.YEP! I fell down in the shower tonight and hurt myself very much badly. I hit my shoulder, my knees, and my head ( that really helped that migraine... NOT). I also hurt my back and hips. I am a big ole mess of screaming pain right now and I can't sleep.
 O I almost forgot to mention my dear hubby running to the rescue - then laughing at me. He really needs to find a more constructive way of handling stress and fear OR he needs to fix his sense of humor. I saw nothing funny in the situation AND I told him that. He just laughed at me more and told me that I looked like an angry little girl. To give him credit though he got wet helping me up ,rinsing me off and getting me out of the tub and he never said a word about it . But he is still a meanie poopoo head for laughing at me ;)

This has been a super crazy week!

Okay before I get started, let me make sure I have everything! Coffee...check,headband( I have to be able to see the little words without interruption)...check,glasses(without those I can't even see the monitor)...check,and my daughter is satisfied for the moment. Now I can tell you my tale of the broken princess(LOL).

 On Sunday, we went to church like we always do. Then Danny made lunch ,while I had my media shout nappy, and then we ate like starving folk like we do every Sunday. After dinner, the little girls went out to play on the trampoline . They played for a few hours having a grand time. Then Ash fell onto Auttie's leg. She never screamed or yelled. She cried when it hurt and she couldn't raise herself with that arm. Auttie came to us and said,"Ash is crying she hurt her arm." Danny ran outside to check on Ash and she was just sitting there in the middle of the trampoline, crying. He brought Ash to me and her arm was just a little swollen near the wrist. We put ice on it to see if the swelling would go away;but the longer she sat there, the more it hurt her. The emergency room visit revealed a broke arm (the radius just 3 inches above her right wrist). They gave her lortab elixir , a splint , and gave us the number to one of the best orthopedic doctors in Lexington. We called the office of Trevor Wilkes MD as soon as they opened. I made Danny stay home from work that day just to help me take care of Ash and Kat. Auttie went home Monday (it was time ,had nothing to do with the accident) But I digress ... The Ortho couldn't see Ash until 8am the next morning. My poor baby had to contend with that splint all day Monday. I sent Kat to her grandmother so that she wouldn't start feeling jealous because of the attention Ash was getting with that broken arm. Kat needed a break from me anyway... not like she wasn't rushing us to get her there(LOL).

 On Tuesday I took Ash to Dr. Wilkes. She fell asleep in the room while waiting on him to come in to see her. When the doctor came in he immediately won Ash's affections by asking to see the Princess' broken arm. He called her "princess" through the entire appointment. He even called an order down to the casting and splinting for the Princess Ash... She loved it. Then we had  an animated discussion about what color she would have on her cast. I know it is her arm and should be her decision. But  I wanted her cast to still look clean and reasonable when school starts on the 11th. She wanted a glow in the dark off-white. I told her she could have that for her 2nd cast.But I needed to have another color (a stay clean or hide the dirt color) for the first cast. The princess got a hot pink cast. She still wants that glow in the dark cast, and she will get it in two weeks.

 Now we are taking it easy and making sure she has no more pain than necessary. Along with trying to get all the swimming in we could and they wanted to bounce on that trampoline every evening, they kept me busy having all kinds of summer fun. Then we've been busy taking care of that broken arm. It has been crazy,crazy, craaaaaazy. Finally, I am glad school is starting back. Maybe that will calm things down around here... eventually.

It is 5 a.m. I should be in bed!

I should be in bed, but I have been having some physical problems lately. I have fibromyalgia and sometimes the pain causes chronic fatigue... And sometimes it causes chronic insomnia. It is a potluck of aggravating symptoms. I'm just saying this so you know what I mean when I say my back and hips hurt... They always hurt. Usually I take this with a grain of salt and praise God for healing me - I used to be in a lot worse shape. While I am still praising God everyday,all day; tonight(err this morning) I am also wishing that I could sleep.

 I work Media Shout at my church and I love every minute of it. Media Shout is the power point effects and backgrounds that you see projected onto the screens behind the pulpit (and on the sides as the case is with my church). We project song lyrics, important points from the sermon and scripture. I have an important job within the service. And if I'm not 100% , I could have some serious problems... randomly flashing statements, lyrics and wildly changing backgrounds can be very distracting. My job is to quietly enhance to service in the background. When things go wrong we become spotlight stealers and that is never good.

 Ok so I have resigned myself to staying up ... bring on the coffee and a shower. I can do this. 5 hours of sleep is enough LOL
