Guest guest Posted February 21, 2001 Report Share Posted February 21, 2001 Oh Peggy, I'm so sorry for what you are experiencing now. It certainly is alot of stress in your life. I have said a prayer for your hubby to find a job, for your son with his school work and for you to regain your strength and energy so that you may be the wife and mom you want to be. Bless you!

I had mysilicone/saline implants removed 1/29 & at first was told they containedbetadine or steriods. I had them sent to Dr. Blais in Canada for testing --I haven't heard back yet. I'm anxious to know what that stuff was!I felt wonderful at first, but haven't been doing well since. My fatigue isso bad, I gave notice at my work. The 28th was supposed to be my last day,but my co-worker is going out of town & she doesn't trust anyone else tocover her desk - so 3/9 will be my last day. I need to use whatever smallamount of energy I have on my son.Hubby & I celebrated our 9th anniversary on 2/15. We'd planned to get asitter & go to Red Lobster (my favorite) on Saturday. And we did do that,even though hubby lost his job on Friday. He was handed a fax from the mainoffice stating they were combining 2 positions & they already had someonequalified to do both jobs. (No way, Glenn was already doing 2 jobs!!)Anyway, they let him go FRIDAY! They said in lieu of 2 weeks notice, they'dgive him 2 weeks pay. Plus, he's owed 2 weeks vacation since he justcelebrated his 2nd anniversary at this place.To top that stuff off, Jeff came home from school Friday (he's in 3rd grade)with a paper saying he's on academic probation for 4 weeks because ofmissing assignments! I feel guilty - I haven't had the energy to get on himabout his homework. I've been very unavailable to him. Not that his homeworkisn't his responsibility, but when I can barely make dinner for him, etc.,that's pretty pathetic mothering.Glenn, hubby, is going to Cape Girardeau MO tomorrow to look for work. Wewere planning to move there this summer, so it didn't seem to make sense forhim to job hunt here.Talk about stress.............For those who believe, please pray for my family.hugs to all,pegPS) Hubby lost job = we lose health insurance..........
