Thanks for peeking in again. I'm functioning, but coughing NON-STOP! My Internal Med Doc just called. My Vitamin D levels are WAYYYY low, as well. I'm a mess! I played D1 tennis in college, still play soccer on the mom's league, walk almost daily, etc... Why am I such a mess? Sheesh!!
Actually, I put the mv idea on hold, as I FINALLY, after waiting nearly three months, have an appointment with this Naturopath. A number of my friends have been to her, as well as my H (last week). He has some yeast issues - has to detox with this tea for 30-days, drink noni juice, and about five other things to drink/take per day... then go on a yeast free diet for another 3 months. He's whining about it all the way, but I think he's starting to see the light already!
So, we'll see what she says.
How are you doing? Actually, the peace and quiet was nice on Friday night. Except every time I'd fall asleep another child would return home!
My D18 is doing great, though. Got to spend some time with her this past week. I haven't seen her much since she moved to her apartment, and is going to school. She goes to school and works during the week, and has been visiting friends *ahem* at all of the universities on the weekends. (Shopping them, MOM!) I pray for her safety all the time!!! And, she just got another job for the holidays at a X-Mas tree farm... she's making wreaths, and boughs now, and starting Friday will work in the little shop selling their crafts, candy, snacks, etc... She's LOVING it! Who knew? (She works w/10 college boys, what 18-year old wouldnt love it?!!)
S12 is in the middle of his bball season. They lost their first game tonight. They're 7-1 now. it was ugly. They all acted like this was a new sport tonight! Bball is like his third sport, but he does okay, and gets to play a third to half of the game. 12 of the 14 on the roster play club/travel bball, and S12 is a year round club/premier team soccer play, picking up yet ANOTHER sport to add to the chaos. He's really lucky to just see the court.
And, S9 is now S10, and just started bball practice. His season starts in a month, but he's still mostly focused as the gk of his club soccer team. He's a kick. Pure attitude. But loves his Mommy!!!
And, H is still traveling a lot for work, but has cut it down a bit, as well. He's friendly, engaging, connected to me, and always available to pitch in and take over on the weekends, and/or during the week when he's home. He also does a good job of being able to get home during the week for S12's bball games. And, he just went over and spent the afternoon with D18 and roommates on Saturday, and, of course, brought them food... He said they sat for three hours showing him silly videos of them from their web-cams, and skype logs. WOW He told me it's better he saw them than me! Yikes!
We are having Thanksgiving here. H likes it here. I think it's okay... (I HAVE TO COOK!) Although, he deep fry's the turkey, so that's a huge help.
I have a girls night tomorrow night. I hope I feel ok to go!

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
