Guest guest Posted September 23, 2003 Report Share Posted September 23, 2003 , I've got the ax....and I'll join ya in using it tonite! I've been in a massive flare for this whole past week....one that has kept me in bed for 3 days straight, only getting up maybe 2-3 hours a day because Gene has made me so that he could do a few things with the Calves that he couldn't take the kids with him. In those 3 days (Friday, Saturday and Sunday), Saturday and Sunday, I didn't eat, Saturday I drank 2 bottles of Dr. Pepper instead of my usual 6pk +, and only a half a pack of Cigarettes got smoked instead of my usual 2-2 1/2 packs. Sunday, I only drank 1 can of pop, smoked 2 cigarettes...and only got up to go to the bathroom 2x's the whole dang day!! I never really even let Gene know how bad I was feeling, that I wasn't eating anything or even drinking anything. He just took the girls when he was home, left Petey in the bedroom in his crib with toys and a full bottle with me....and disappeared. He would go and do his chores, go and tear apart this trailer house that has a bunch of stuff that was given to his sister....because the stuff that is being torn out is going into Gene's parent's house where his sister is living at now free of charge again. I gotta luv how she always gets to live in their house free of charge, it must be SO nice! She doesn't have to pay the lights, gas, nothing...not even the cell phone bill, cause that is also her mother's....and she won't get a regular phone either, although, if she did, she wouldn't have to pay for that either!! Hell, we paid for her furniture the way it is......Gene is the one that is fixing the house up again, due to the floor in the kitchen is rotting away due to the sink pipes bursted and no one noticed....part of the living room floor needs torn out and replaced.....windows need replaced, the whole house needs insulated..........and, Gene is the one that is gonna get stuck doing it, while I have brand new Kitchen cabinets sitting in my basement waiting to be put in. I still have a window in my garage waiting to be put in....for the past 4 years. It will sit there until next year, which, by then the frame Won't be any good, and neither will be the window. Ok, went off rambling off the subject again as usual..... But, we've had like 12 storm systems like in the last 5 days here.....I swear, I used to love Fall, but anymore, I really HATE IT! Fall here in the MidWest used to be the best, and the Prettiest season of all. The Maple Tree's were the most Prettiest....red and silver leaves, Actually, all the leaves turning colors......the weather cooling off just perfectly to where the windows could be left open all day and all night up to almost Halloween........going and picking out the Halloween outfits, raking leaves into a great big pile just to jump into them, and rake them back up again and keep starting over again and again.....the smell of fresh, homemade apple pies, pumpkin pies, fresh rubarb cobbler, homemade peach pies and other desserts with peaches....apples too! My Mother would always be in the kitchen baking something every day, because someone would always pick too much of this or that, and would make the excuse that they didn't have the time to make stuff, freeze teh stuff or whatever (just because they knew they'd get a pie or something out of it, and at the time, my mom could make t he best desserts!) When it came to the Apples though, it was usually an ex family member that was and now is blind....at the time though, he was really close to being blind...and had no one to bake for him. So, he'd go and pick apples, or whatever he could find when he'd go and tear down houses, or clean up around a house that he was hired to do.....and bring them to my mom. Well, the good (and for me, the bad at times) thing for him was that he'd always bring a couple 3-4 bushels of apples, plums, peaches or pears....and my mom would freeze them, bake them into pies, cobblers or however else she could make them that could be frozen, brought out, dethawed, and ate.....and she always made sure that he got quite a few of each!!! lol...poor guy though, it was the only baked food he ever got during the winter due to his elderly mother couldn't bake near the end of her life...and then, once she died, there was no one else to look after him. But, as you can tell, Fall was always my favorite time of the year!! I'd go crazy looking for just the right costume....for me until I was too old....then my best friends' brothers.....my cousins.....and, then, my own kids!!! Even Crystal went Trick-or-Treating when she was only 2 1/2 weeks old!!!! I told Gene straight out that she came out early for a reason.....and that was for candy!! She was going no matter what! My due date with her was not till Halloween....And I ended up having her Oct. 14th instead, all because she wanted that candy! lol Well, I may hurt pretty badly this year, but, I can tell you one thing.....Petey will have his own trick-or-treating costume this year too!!! hehehe. I swear, I will walk around with him, NO MATTER WHAT!!! I do love Christmas......but, if I had to pick only one holiday out of the year as my most favorite.....it would be HALLOWEEN HANDS DOWN!! So, .....I'll give you the choice. If I think I can go out on Halloween packing a 16-17lb baby, trying to keep up with Sami and Crystal this year........and I actually DO IT.........I'll even have Gene post for me whether I do it or not......But, IF I do it, then, You have to crawl out of the black hole for a while! If I don't......I have to send you a bag of your favorite candy for Halloween!! Deal???

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2003 Report Share Posted October 13, 2003 , With my GERD, I don't go near Hot Peppers! Actually, I've never liked peppers to begin with....but I've always loved Taco's, Pizza, and most Mexian foods. But, my GERD has been acting up so bad lately, and I haven't been able to go near any of my favorite foods!!! WWWAAA! Tonia -- Re: jan hello. got a question. do you know anyone that eats a lot of hot peppersand have rsd?? I wonder if they have less pain? , I don't aim to even give it a try--I'm not into real hot stuff! LOL Love, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
