Daylight savings was Saturday night. Clocks went ahead one hour. I normally hate daylight savings. Especially the one in the spring when you lose that our sleep. It just throws me off for days. My daughter came home at about 11 o’clock upset on Saturday evening. She was working so i couldn’t understand her mood. I thought it was because of Saturday afternoon. She was out doing a couple of errands because we only have one car now (mine is…
It’s the hump day. That middle of the week where it’s all downhill to Friday. I’ve been up since roughly 5:30 this morning. I’m exhausted. I couldn’t sleep. I should change that, I couldn’t fall back to sleep. Not sleeping is like an instant bad day with MS. I just wrote the ticket for the day. Not that I could’ve controlled it, I just know how my body is when I don’t sleep. My daughter was up all night studying…
My ex-husband has now asked me twice, “have you listened to the new U2 album, it’s really good?”He, knowing how I am, said after you get through the first and second listening time, you’ll really love it. I’ve been a U2 fan since I was about 10. Lately, in the last 5-6 years, I really don’t listen to you to them all that much. I’m still in their fan club, I still have a ton of paraphernalia from them and…
If I ever thought my breakups were bad, it was just because I never experienced my child go through a breakup. Omg, this must have been the worst 36 hours of my life. I think I prefer the biweekly tears than go through these last 36 hours again. They had a fight and her boyfriend decided he wanted a break for a week. Then my daughter got swept up by her imagination and did a drive by of his house….
My baby girl went out last night and didn’t get back to her dorm until almost 7:00 am. Does it make me a bad mom to say I’m slightly impressed? She is finally enjoying the city life with a mixture of high school friends and a few college friends. It’s been a tough road so far, her first semester at college, so I’m so happy that she is out and about in the city over the weekend. Well right now…
A few weeks ago my daughter and I got matching tattoos. This was a promise I made to her years ago before she was legal to get a tattoo. Our last name is Star so we got the stars on our wrist. Black for me, blue for her, intertwined in the ribbon. The tattoo needs something else but we’ll figure that out and add it at a later date. When I told my sister she said, “yuck but you two are…
That is how my friend explained it to me yesterday when I told her how I felt. I’m very excited for my daughter, my college years were some of my favorite years. It’s just has been her and I for so long. My divorce was started in August of 2006. He moved out and it was Mikayla and I and the pets. 11 years and now she’s growing up off to live in NYC and go to school. I know…
So, this is it, the beginning of the weekend. My baby girl graduating high school but it starts tonight with prom. Busy, busy, busy day today. Everything is showered, ok well I’m showered, the daughter is about to. We have a 12:00 appointment for hair and at 1:30 she is in the make up chair. She needs to be at her boyfriend’s house by 2:30. From there they go to the pre-prom party which is 45 minutes away. Unfortunately the…
I follow all the blogs I come across with people that have a MS. I like to see how they deal with it what’s going on with them, what medicine they take, etc. I like to read how they deal with the obstacles of having MS and balancing life. One of my personal favorites is Jen from http://Www.trippingthroughtreacle.wordpress.com. Jen’s blog is uplifting and inspiring despite her illness. Jen has had MS for over 20 years. For me especially at 19 years…
