Hey all

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I think I finally caught up, maybe, lol!!! This time of year is nuts and I still don't know what I'm doing half the time.

My back went out after shoveling what I thought was light fluffy snow last week, just my back, not my shoulders, arms, or legs. Wierd. So I was down and out for a day, then BLAMMO, I catch a cold, sore throat and all.

They've just upgraded our storm. Now they are calling for 2 feet of snow. They are saying that we may be seeing as much as 3 inches per hour on Sunday!!! Of course goes back to work on Saturday afternoon, lol!!!

and I are not getting along too well right now for some reason. She really needs to be on an antidepressant but refuses. What can I do? She is so angry all the time. She just left for work and and I told her that if it was as bad as they say it's going to be on Sunday that she's to be very careful about driving back and forth to work. She's working 6-2 I think. Then she snaps back and says "and to Carmen's gramma's for dinner." Not, "can I go to Carmen's gramma's?" What if I feel like crap on Sunday? I can't get through to her that she isn't the only person in the world that matters. She can be so understanding at times but for the most part it's me, me, me. I know she is 17, almost 18, in less than a month, but geez.

She's borrowing money from us to put gas in her car because she spent $50 on herself to buy sweats and a sweatshirt with the sorority logo on it from high school. Last week she was complaining that she didn't know how she was going to pay for Christmas presents! On top of that she didn't pay my father the car payment which is $50 every 2 weeks!!! Blows my mind!!! She still has not called to schedule her Compass test(the test she needs to take to admit her to the college). It will take her 5 minutes to schedule that. Doesn't have time for that, but has time to talk for hours on the cell phone to Carmen, has time to get on the computer and play on MYSpace, watch TV, take a nap. GGGRRRR!!!

I swear I'm having an I MADE IT THROUGH THE TEENAGE DAUGHTER YEARS PARTY the day she turns 20!!!! Unfortunately with all the medicine no drinking, that sucks, lol!!! I can't wait till she has her own kids, and I hope all of them are girls, well maybe one boy. She says she wants 4, lol. I wonder how long that will last once she has the first one!!!

I think I have gotten in with the neuro I had originally wanted before this wacko I just saw. I called him on Tues. and they said they were taking new patients so I called my dr. quickly and asked for a referral and hopefully they got that today. I'm guessing that this other dr,(the wacko) didn't have much contact with MS patients. It still burns my butt. I'd like to report him. Oh well, as long as I find a decent dr. who knows what he's doing and I don't have to travel hours to be seen.

made permanent Sargeant which means he can start bidding to get closer to home. Yippee!!! I totalled up how much $ we used in gas in Nov. and I almost fainted. $443!!!! Can you believe it???? That's more than half our mortgage payment. Ridiculous!!!

Well, my hands are freezing from typing too long, lol. is cooking cheeseburgers and hot dogs for dinner with french fries, yummy. Zack's favorite. I'm not too hungry but I'll eat to make happy!!! Wouldn't want to offend the chef.

Starting my Christmas cookie baking tomorrow. Making peanut butter balls covered in chocolate. Maybe one other type of cookie too, not sure which one though, maybe the fudge, those two will keep the best for a week.

Everyone stay warm and cozy and safe!!!

Hugs
