Hi everyone,
Well, as you can tell, things are slooow here at work today. Of course, we are slammed tomorrow. That is how my job works. Patients can't come here on dialysis days. I would rather be busy, but I am certainly not complaining about downtime.
Jon is actually working on packing. I am shocked. He is such a procrastinator. He keeps insisting that he won't need to spend much to set up his apartment. I handed him a list of things he would need. He initially said, he didn't need 1/2 of it. I told him to really look at it, and tell me one thing he wouldn't need. Things like a can opener, toilet bowl brush, garbage bags, shower curtain. Necessities. He couldn't find one item. I think the $$ factor is just starting to hit him.
I am doing ok. Going to Pilates last night really helped me. Wednesady evenings are really tough for me. I am just exhaustedand spent. I drag my butt to Pilates, and it helps to center me. I leave feeling more energized, and like I accomplished something. Food has been horrible. I just keep eating, but I am cutting myself some slack. Getting uptight about my food just makes me eat more. No sense in that.
Kate is having a really hard time. She is having horrible nightmares, and last night myabe got 4 hours of sleep. This of course means that I only got 4 hours of sleep. They finished the support group at school yesterday, so she brought home her materials. I was looking through them, and realized justr how much the kid has figured out. I am trying my best to help her, but it is so hard to see my little girl so sad and unsure of herself. The only time she really is joyful right now is when she dances. I am going to get here into counselling ASAP.
Today I still need to walk the dog, take Kate to dance, Dinner/homework. clean a bathroom, and work on a bit of laundry. My food has been ok, but it is when I head home that I am having issues. I am planning on grilled chivken and salad for dinner. Now, I just need to not snack. Wish me luck.
Take care,
Beth
