Hi everyone. I have been lurking about a bit trying to catch up on my reading yet again. Did some, will do more later.
RING, what ring, from whom. what is the dirt here 'mi lady"? I am happy for you girlfriend.
Etsy, shop, yes I saw that on FB and thought "oh" what is this? I agree, age has nothing to do with taste and that was just simply tasteless. Oh well what are you gonna do, just keep on keepin on as we are and we will survive this too. I don't make sales. I am not here much and my marketing and promoting has taken a nose dive in the last few months for many reasons and for this I am sorry. I truly enjoy sharing everyone and their beauties and I will begin again.
Our holidays are nearly upon us and I know that I have said I would show the ornaments when they were finished, soooooooo, maybe next year. They are not going to happen this year. Yep, I had to take a break from nearly everything recently. I had another heart attack on Thanksgiving day. It was very mild and I did not go to the hospital. I chose not to say anything even though Leia knew, but I did not want to ruin Thanksgiving for her and Jaeden. The emergency room is no place for a 7 year old to be on Thanksgiving. Plus, he would have been ordering the doctors around anyway. However, the symptoms did persist and finally I could not fight Leia off any longer and went to emergency on the following Tuesday, stayed overnight and they did all sorts of tests and told me that I have no blockages. Well 'duh" that would be because I have two stints. Yet they told me that I have to take the higher dosage of aspirin 325 mg instead of the 80mg because my blood needs to be a bit thinner so that the blood can flow through the plaque in my arteries. (no blockages) hmmmmm. But this brought on other issues. Not with me. I'm fine, just trucking along. But Leia apparently became overwhelmed even though she thought she was handling everything well and she began to display symptoms similar to PTSD. Anxiety, frightening images and thoughts, nightmares, severe headaches (she said like her brain was in a vice (sp) and then when the squeezing released she would not be able to hold herself up or walk. There was not much pain during this but it would cause her to slur her speech and her head would pull to the right and she could not hold it up until it was over. Scared the bejeebers out of me. I took her to emergency and the PA said there was nothing they could do for her because she was not in any pain. I of course showed my patuttie. Because of where she works, she did not work for a week which just totally sucks for us for Christmas but it's okay the only thing we did not get was the drums (the one thing that he now talks about all the time). But she is better now, the dizziness seems to have eased up trememdously. I started giving her 25mg of my anti anxiety medication and that helped a lot. After the first pill when I realized the difference I knew that it was because of going through my issues with me that she is like this. She is so afraid of something happening to me that she can't think of much else sometimes. If anyone has any suggestions on how to help alleviate her fears, I am all ears. For now, we just rest as much as we can (with a hyper 7 year old in the house). We stopped doing any schoolwork until after the new year unless he asks what something is then we show him how to look it up, moving toward a more unschooling approach. He works better that way most of the time. Of course there is the requisite math and english that I squeeze in their during reading time and just talking.
Ok, that is about it I think. Sorry this is so long but wanted everyone to know that I had not forgotten anyone here and have had you all on my mind, just had no desire to sit in front of the computer or my beads lately. But I will be around, promise.
Love you all and I hope that your holidays are wonderful and exciting and full of love and peace. May God bless you all.
