Good Morning ladies...

Well...I am here after being up since 2 am...UUUGGHHH...It's 6 am now, for my Non EST friends. I am going to be one grumpy Nana today!!! Jaiden didn't feel too good yesterday afternoon and ran a little bit of fever...but seem to pass and feel fine after dinner...she woke at 1 am and wanted some to drink...so I got her a cup...I went right back to sleep and I "think" she did too..not sure...but at 2..she was hollering again...I wouldn't give her another drink...told her to go back to sleep...I COULDN'T so I got up...she was awake until a little after 5...I heard playing with dolls...she even got up and climbed the shelves and got the Ninendo DS down......she finally got tired and started hollering for me at 5 again...I tucked her back in and told her to go to sleep (in my very stern Nana voice...which most everything out of my mouth today will probably sound like that)...........and on top of it....I am hurting like a @#*&#*&@&#*@&#&*@*^^(#@*&@#.................did ya catch that?? :hurt: Damn arthritis!!!!


Oh well...I did scrap a couple of pages..I was roaming the halls of the back room and found a little goodie...can't share yet...but yum!!! so I made two pages!!!


Okay...pray for my kiddos today...that I don't kill them...ound:

Oh Nana.... (((((((((hugs))))))))))))
I feel like I mist have jinxed you with the crappy sleep. YOu had said that you were doing better, and then this happens. I didn't sleep good last night either but at least it was better than your night, I didn't have to get out of bed for little ones.
I wish that there was soemthing you could do about that arthritis. I feel it too- my fibro is acting up and everything hurts, even the tops of my feet. Here's to coffee and hoping your kiddos sleep like angels tonight!

 

[faerywings]

I am moving slowly again.... this getting old business BITES!!!!!! :becky:
ound:

yesterday was a crap day. After work, I came home, tried to nap and after sleeping for 20 mins, I woke up feeling even worse than I did before. That is my main reason for not wanting to nap. I always feel worse. But what can you do? I spent the rest of my day paying bills, doing laundry, etc... mindless stuff that kept me moving.

Now today?? ugh- more cleaning, then it is supposed to rain all afternoon. I was supposed to do a garage sale at my mom's this weekend it was cancelled yet again from weather. We are trying again for next weekend. But I'd love to try to get scrapping this afternoon. I have been in my "dead-zone" way to long. And I happened to see what Nana saw, and wow is it cute!

Finish It Friday: I really need to clean the cobwebs out of my office space. But maybe I can just consider the spiders to be my friends and let them stay. LOL

love and hugs!

 

[hondachicc]

OH Chris...you didn't jynx me....just one of those things!!! I am sure I will sleep well tonight....even if I have to have a "little help"..:becky:You know my Mom thinks I have fibromyalgia....she says because of the "way" I hurt...I keep saying I am going to the dr...but....well.....uhhhmmm.....YEAH..YOU KNOW!! I hope your day is better today sweetie...LOTS OF HUGS for you!!!


I just took a looooooooooooooooooong hot shower...that helped me feel better..but now I want to go take a long nap...yeah right...I am still the only one up at the moment...so at least the quiet is still with me!! We have rain all day today too...so indoors and maybe NAPS today..WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLL a girl can hope can't she??

 

[hondachicc]

For me and you Chris (and anyone else with pains today)

 

[faerywings]

And some personals from yesterday:

Bottom up today!

Kristy- hugs to you and your sister. I hope that her friend pulls through.

Heather- I am glad I am not the only nut-job who has to clean for an empty house. LOL Welcome to tradition NJ weather HHH- Hazy, hot and humid and the NJ official "bird" is the mosquito! Happy Vacation!!

Trudy- I swear, I want to strangle the person who does your work schedule for you! Hope that the day went quickly for you. Sounds like your summer has been wonderful and full of family and friends. Thats the best ever!!!

Phyllis- I use to be very much more proactive towards having Gary and the kids take care of themselves. I guess when we all got sick, the "Italian Mama" bred into me came out where I became the person taking care of everything at the expense of myself. I see my mom do this constantly and for all of my life. its a bad bad bad way to be. And now- being that I have done this for years, its expected of me. I try to give up the responsibilty of certain things but its gotten so ingrained. *sighs* I have created a monster of a situation. And you are right, 100%.

Great news about seeing your DD-- baby steps forward!!
Hope you had a great day.

Nana- I saw your post on FB- I used to do that too when my kids were little and they shared a tiny bedroom. I think I picked up that when I was teaching PreK, especially on those rainy days when we are stick inside. Hope you had fun at the park!

Laurie-- new hair! That is always a good thing! Have fun being a student for a few days. No partying though, you hear?? LOL

[faerywings]

hahah!! Love that bottle Nana!!

If you go to a dr about fibro, they'll ask you abput pressure points. I never had the 11 out od 18 points that they use to traditionally diagnose you. But it is also a mental component, sometimes it is brain fog, sometimes its a feeling over being overloaded. In my experience, traditional drs didn't seem to focus as much on the cognitive stuff. It wasn't until I talked to my lyme dr that she diagnosed me. Of course then there is a the issue with my if the fibro is part of my my lyme or a separate issue.... not that it matters much in the end.

When my back really kinks up on my, the only thing that seems to help is to lie on my back onthe floor. My MIL has to do the same. I bet it is fun to watch us try to get up!

gentle hugs, smiley pills and vodka to you!

 

[whatnext]

welcome to the morning meeting of Women Who are Awake All Night!! poor Nana! at least i don't have little voices waking me up at 2 a.m. i hope you get an opportunity to rest at some point today. duuno HOW you do it, you amazing person. Chris can correct me if i'm not describing how her Fibro feels, but i always describe it as a toothache in my bones. and my tendons burn 24/7. it's a freaking Pain Carnival.... :frusty: really, who cares what they CALL it. there's no way around it, as far as i can tell.

Chris, sending you some more rain and lightning and thunder. we've had two nights of SPECTACULAR lightning. i really LOVE thunderstorms. i finally got to shut off the AC this morning. only 78 here today, so that's something to look forward to. and more storms.

i feel like crap if i nap, too, Chris.:yuck: i wonder why that is?

well. what's on for today? gotta wait for Anna to post her new stuff so i can do the forum post. gotta do some vacuuming and laundry. gotta pick up Hubby's shirts at the cleaners. (i am STILL getting used to the wonder of THAT! i decided a few months ago that i was retiring from shirt ironing after 35 years of it. i'm enjoying letting someone else do it!) maybe i'll bake something, since the cool temps will ensure that the inside of my house won't become a furnace if i do. oh!! and i just remembered. going to my SIL"s house for dinner, so i don't have to COOK!! life is good!:cheer2:

hope everyone is gonna feel better and get some quality sleep. :sleep: try to find the Happy in Friday!

Chris, i'm almost 18 for 18 on those points. you can send me into orbit if you poke me in the elbow....

 

[hondachicc]

Chris...if I go to the Dr I will mention the fibro..but not pursue it too hard...I am not convinced myself....now you on the other hand...you have quite a bit more going on...I don't know what those 11 -18 points would be...but I have heard a lot about the cognitive part of this from others who have it.

Hi ya Phylis...yes...WE ARE A CLUB!! my pain is mostly in my arms and down into my hands....but it does feel like burning at times..that's why Mom thinks fibro I guess...she says I describe the pain like it's fibro. At night when I am in the bed and roll over, the muscles or tendons (not sure which) feel like they are rolled and pop when I move. We had a doozie of a storm last night about 11...that's right when I went to bed...and the thunder was so loud and hard it was making the bed shake. GET YOUR MINDS OUT OF THE GUTTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know what you are thinking now :spit:


WOW...............8:30 and they are all still in bed!!! Maybe they will just stay there all day ..... more wishful thinking!! :hurt:

 

[VickiStegall]

I'm another one who didn't get enough sleep. Couldn't go to sleep last night then woke up at 5 am. Good news is, I do believe I've finally fixed the final piece of the $0 order glitch. PHEW!!!! and, made the freebie download button easier to find. Phew.

so, so far this morning I've been productive but now I'm beginning to fade lol

 

[clarabear]

Okay...that's it!! I am not getting older. I stop aging right now!!! Not that I'm overly young either...but still. Fortunately I do sleep really well and always have...but my husband is insomniac enough for the both of us. I couldn't exist. This morning my husband woke me up with questions. I don't know why he does that. He knows it won't go well. LOL!! I think i told him he just had to wait but less intelligibly. Of all things he was asking me if I wanted to get up and go somewhere...I was like...seriously? Ummmm...NO!!!! I do need to start altering my sleep pattern since I'll be getting up at 4ish to open the coffee stand up. I need to work on that.

Today is a lazy day...probably laundry. I have been cleaning the kids rooms this week. Ewwww!! They will be back in 8 days. They have been gone so long it will be weird having them home but I can't wait. They have had so much fun though. Ethan is ready to stay there forever but Addie is ready to come home. I just miss my babies.


I hope all of you start feeling better and don't pass out from lack of sleep. Hugs!!

 

[hondachicc]

Phylis..................give Vicki the password to the club!!! ound: At least you got some work done!!! That is a plus and off your plate for the day!!!

Phylis...................hide the password from Clara....we don't let sleepers in...well....unless you bring lots and lots of coffee...then you can come sweetie!! :becky: ....you tell Derrick that Nana said to leave you the hell alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :hurt: bet that's how you said it..huh?? Wives are like babies....DON'T WAKE THEM WHEN THEY ARE SOUNDLY SLEEPING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or very loud noises emit from their mouths!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ound:

 

[hondachicc]

The family started arising around 9:15....took until 11:30 for them all to be up...that NEVER EVER NEVER happens here!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am going to try more pictures of Savannah in the morning....I have been reading my Photog workbook all week...and I "think" I have ironed out a few things on my camera to help me....anxious to try some real photos instead of my windows, cabinets, television, candles and such..HEHE!!!

 

[hondachicc]

Don't mind me for being so chatty today..............I am really wired...lack of sleep..but I bet by 6pm I will be crashing hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[clarabear]

I'll bring coffee!! A whole cart worth. I have no issues with buying my friends. LOL!!! I think I was actually kinda nice this morning...the questions directly benefitted me so I think the conversation went something like this:

Derek - Hey...do you want to go to the coffee place today or monday?
Clara - Wha???
Derek - Do you want to go today or Monday?
Clara - Wait..wha? Hold on! What are you talking about?
Derek - the coffee place. When do you want to go.
Clara - Wait...you have to wait...hold on...wha??


and so forth and so on. I think I remember some laughing and apologizing on his part. I will say though...you could get me the password for your always awake group...but the meeting would be long over by the time I got there. LOL!! I'm ging to need one of those alarm clocks like Donald Duck has before too long. Something that steals my blanket and smacks me.
