Random Gripes

#1. I am tired. I am frustrated. I want B.B. to stay in bed and go to sleep. I am irritated. I am angry. I need...I don' t even know what I need. I'd like to not yell at the kids all night. I'd like to tell them something and have them answer, "OK, Mommy." I'd like to not break up 15 fights in 25 minutes. I need a break.

#2. I have it easy. Please pray for our 'Wandering Lauren.' She found out she's suffered a miscarriage this weekend.

#3. I'm waiting for House to come on so I can settle in with a Hostess Cupcake and watch it and then go to bed.

#4. I need to take a shower first, but since B.B. won't stay in bed, I can't.

#5. Uncle Gick and Unkie Di spent the entire night in and out of ER's because his heart wouldn't stop racing. The docs talked down to them and that isn't a smart move on their parts (the docs). He's home now, but it's still unknown what caused the racing. Uncle Gick has Cardiomyopathy (an enlarged heart), and a pace maker. His heart rate stays under 85 bpm...last night it was between 103 & 123 for 6 hours. He's on a monitor for 30 days and has been given meds to help. Please pray for them.

#5. There is so much to be done around here. I can't seem to get anything but the basics done. I'm getting frustrated by my lack of gumption. I know I'm pregnant. I know I have a good excuse to take it easy. I also know what needs to happen around here. Please pray for me.

sweety I send my thoughts and prayers up for you.

And for Lauren.

Please don't push yourself and listen to your body when rest is needed or desired.

As for the kids, well I haven't figured that out yet, but when I do I'll give you a buzz.

Hope you are enjoying watching your show.

Hugs

PS I forgot I'm sending prayers up for Uncle Gick and Unkie Di too. I forgot to put that in the above post

Today was the first day I've felt like even doing basics for quite a while... it's not all done, but at least the laundry pile is smaller, the living room and hall have been vacuumed, and the kitchen floor swept. Unfortunately, dinner was a frozen pizza and sauteed spinach... ok but I really gotta start cooking again soon...

You have such a lot of worries going on in your life right now. You are not superwoman. I send you a big hug over the ocean and if I was there I would make you a cup of tea with a big slice of cake and make you sit down. Then I would make sure you had 2 hours of child free tv or reading or anything you fancied. But as I'm not there I send you my good thoughts and wishes and understanding. Chin up.

I've thought for a while that a brain as active as yours needs to be challenged. I tried to think of a contest. I'll post it on my blog.
