Super Self-Sufficient
Well, I am up early today and catching up on everyone's posts. Lost of spring stuff going on around here.
My dh cam home at a reasonable hour on Tues so I headed toward the Chiropractors office. After a bit of ultra sound and an adjustment my back feels 99 percent better. It amazes me how much. I am still taking some ibuprofen for inflammation but there is no pinch any longer. After a week of pain and tears Im on the mend.
I think I am going to get my pilates DVD pack out and try to do some stretching exercises for my core.
Well, on the home front....
School is going well. Ds is in the middle of his Ca. Mission report. We bought most of the parts and pieces from the craft store. He is loving the construction of the building out of the foam core. I told him I will buy him more so he can build whatever he wants. The written part is going ok. I am still helping a bit but he is definitely more on task and cooperative.
We have a doctors appointment today for him. They will do a med check I think and see how he is doing. I think we are fine.
I started my 7 yo dd on the Omega 3's when I did son and I am really noticing some differences in her disposition. She is getting 2000mg per day and I noticed her skin is not so crusty any more. She seems to be a bit less dramatic. If that's even possible for a 7 yo girl.
On the house front. My dh is miserable with the new job. He is still working from the Chino office. The work is very easy for him because he is a bit over qualified for the job. He is doing his work and then finishing and doing things for other project managers as well. There is one thing that is just making him really mad. I think it's just the icing on the cake. They have given him a phone with a northern area code. It is really bothering him. He is not supposed to be working up north and I think by taking the phone it show he is conceding. If you get my drift. Every day he comes home and is frustrated. I just keep telling him we DO have options.
Yesterday I gave him the "If I was religious" speech. About maybe we just need to have faith and trust that there is a plan. That if we do go to Mo. it wouldn't be that bad. With his experience I am sure he could get some kind of job.
The other day his Dad drove him to the office. He needed to pick up the company truck they are providing him with. His dad asked if we were moving. This has been a taboo subject usually not discussed. DH said yes eventually we will move. His family is really wearing him down. They keep pointing ut the negatives and how far it is. I am a bit annoyed. His dad said "Gina really wants to move doesn't she?" My dh said yes, not sure if he also add that he wanted to go or that right now our finances are dictating the future. In our family I have come to call this," throwing Momma under the bus". Very often I am made out to be the bad guy, or girl. Whatever!! If thy cared we wouldn't be in this position in the first place.
This weekend is Mother's day and it looks like we will go to the in laws for a normal
Sunday family dinner. I am hoping if my back feels up to it I can spend my Sat in the garden. That would make Sunday at the in laws more tolerable. I have a friend who invited us over for appetizers and margaritas on Sat. This was a party I threw last year. It got a bit out of hand and I really don't feel like doing it again. Not sure how I will get out of attending. This is the husband who never has anything nice to say about us wanting to go to Mo. He drinks to much as well. blah blah blahhhhh!!!!!
Well I could use a re fill on my coffee and it's about time to start my day. I hope you all have a great day.
