Well, let me just try to play a little bit of catch up...
I took off work today. Took an FMLA day. I have a chronic condition on file with my eyes and they were so bothering me today. On top of that, I feared I had a bladder infection or UTI. All the symptoms were there over the last few days. So I went to the after hours clinic at my doc's last night. Confirmed a slight one. Bladder control issues are no fun when you are glued to a phone. Plus I was really sleepy. I was up to get the kids ready for daycare and Cici ready for summer school... another story... and then I went back to sleep until 11 AM. The medicine they prescribed for me makes me feel dizzy and lightheaded. So I basically have felt like crap all day but I did get to chill out with the hubby and Elliebear most of the day.
Cici got her report card in the mail today. She failed Tx History, of all subjects, and Math. I kind of struggled with math when I was younger too, so I can't be mad at her for that one. However, I was a History Major when I went to SMU. So I can't relate to the Tx History one. But she only has to go to summer school til June 30 and if they finish all their assignments before then, they will be released sooner. Glad I changed our vacation plans to August. I am hoping she does well and now that we have another adult in the house with hubby home, I am hoping the next school year is easier for her. She had a lot of responsibility helping me out in his absence. And I wasn't able to be as diligent in enforcing extra study time as I would have liked.
Hubby has filed for unemployment. He has so many things on his plate to take care of. I saw what his ex-wife is getting in child support and it totally pissed me off. Another story... It's a lot of money for one kid. As compared to what I get for Cici and Elliebear, it's a lot. It's about twice what I get for 2 kids. And I am not fond of her and don't see what the attraction ever really was- for my hubby toward her or for me and my ex... Not that I am reflecting but... Another story...
Cici was upset that Elliebear got a birthday card from their dad with money in it and she didn't get anything in the mail. Elliebear got a phone call first thing in the morning. She was spending the night at a friend's when he called and she returned his call later, only to get voicemail. Cici, no word from him. I don't know what that's about. I can only assume it's because Elliebear is his favorite. Not going to worry about it. But glad Cici is old enough to understand why I am not with him and what kind of person he is.
Hubby and I went to see 2 movies this past weekend. Get Him to the Greek, which I absolutely adored! And Splice, which wasn't so good. Next on the list, Price of Persia and the A-Team. I can't wait! There are some good ones coming out this summer. He is gone right now to watch the Lakers and the Celtics play game 4 of the finals. LA leads 2-1. He is a die-hard Lakers fan and I really can't stand them... Well, just Kobe Bryant. But since he is part of their organization, I really think I'll pass. No denying there's talent there. So I guess I will root for them so my hubby will be happy. At least til the Mavericks start up again next year.
I really think I want to go back to my shrink. It's great with hubby being home. I feel less stressed as far as my list of things to do is concerned. However, his last paycheck is coming up. He is gently searching for a job but I am not rushing him because he has been so busy getting the house back in order. Fixing leaky faucets, getting us a new fridge and furniture, totally revamping the yard, getting his old clunker running so we can try to sell it or something, fixing the kids swing set, making dinner and doing all the chores each day, fixing small electrical problems, cleaning out the garage and the air conditioner vents. And I know I haven't even mentioned everything. However, I still feel overwhelmed. I don't know what my problem is. A major part of it is that my job is so depressing. I don't bring it home with me... I can totally let one customer roll on by and go to the next... but the job is so depressing. My department for the most part. I am so tired of hearing about every one's financial problems and how they are angry with the company for whatever reason as though I personally caused these issues in their lives. I am expected to sell to this group of people who call in to disconnect and remove things they already can't pay for. It's ridiculous. I think I need my Cymbalta back to help me keep my scales in balance... I have no doubts that everything else will fall into place...
Hubby's cousin who kept the kids while we were in Gulf Port moved into a new house and needs a fridge. We are donating our old one. That was pretty nice of hubby. The 9th was the one year anniversary of when her son died from a malignant brain tumor/complications. I still don't know the specifics of that, but it's pretty sad.
I have a friend on fb that I met at my cousin's husband's going away party last year (he is in the Army and deployed in Iraq.) She has been posting some really negative things lately. I am so worried about her. We aren't that close. Right after I met her, she moved to Arkansas to live with her hubby's parent's while he was deployed. So I have really only talked to her on the phone, fb or email. Anyway, she is having extreme marital problems. Her hubby is mean to her and tells her he wants a divorce but she doesn't know why he is being this way. She has already attempted to talk to his command and Military One Source and that was no help. She reached out to me about her plight and she had pretty much tried all the suggestions I gave her. She has been put on antidepressants and her fb posts are almost suicidal. She asked me to get hubby's opinion and call her back and his news was not very good. He feels that her hubby's is acting guilty about something. His accusations of her cheating may be because he is doing it himself. I didn't want to deliver that news so I never called her back to tell her that one. I do hope they work it out since they have small children.
Hubby told me to be fat and happy for a while. So I haven't been obsessing about working out. I am still trying to control my eating habits and I do my hand weights at work and take the stairs, etc. Things like that still count. Hubby loves me the way I am. It's just me being comfortable with the way I am. I will start working out again, but I am grateful that he wants to spend time reconnecting with me. He cracks me up. My hubby is a funny guy and he knows how to take care of his family. He even has Paco trained pretty well. I am very blessed to have him in my life. He treats me like a queen. I got flowers the other night for no reason at all. This time they were some he picked up, not delivered, which is even nicer. He actually took the time and picked them out for me. He is amazing. I can't wait for his goals to become achievements. I will be glad to say I was along for the ride.
Goodnight.
