Too much...

Between Facebook and Myspace and here...I never feel like I have time to catch up with everyone. I get over here and have to read 500 blogs that I've missed because I haven't even logged in in forever.

I've had a nasty head cold/allergies/or something since last Monday. But I think I'm starting to feel a little better.

I had an MRI does this week on my rotator cuff. I've been having the same kind of pain in my shoulder/arm/neck that I used to get when I worked at the IRS...which was diagnosed as Impingement Syndrome and hurt like a mother effer. So, it was time to go see my Orthopedic Specialist again. He wants to make sure I haven't actually torn my rotator cuff and my old MRI's were like 5 years old. I have the follow up on Tuesday to see what the pain is from and what I'm going to do about it.

I had another couple of appointments with my new psychologist...and after a bunch of tests, he thinks it is beyond a doubt that I have adult A.D.D. He thinks that basically all my anxiety and depressive states are caused by it. Because I'm never constantly depressed. It changes all the time. He said I get so anxious and frustrated and can't control it that it send me into depressive modes. So, on Monday I go to see my old phychiatrist, and the plan of action is for me to take medication for A.D.D. instead of anti-anxiety and anti-depression medication. I've tried lots of those before, and they don't do a whole lot. So, this is pretty much all new territory. I'm a little nervous, but a little excited. My mom has been saying on and off for years that she's thought I had A.D.D. since I was in high school...but she's never done anything about it??? I'm trying not be angry about that.

P-Dub is sick too. I took Gabby to the pool yesterday for an hour or so. Then he came over. We all went to my parent's for a minute, grabbed some lunch, went shopping at Old Navy for summer clothes for Gabby. And then he and I laid around watching TV, trying not to be sick. Gabby played outside.

Today is another glorious sunny day, and as soon as I can get up and about...get rid of my headache...I'm going to get a bagel and coffee...and then we're going out to the pool agan. Although I'm sure I'm already too damn dark as it is.

June is coming soon and Gabby has 4 days left of school. She'll be spending 2 weeks at her dad's in June and then she's going to Arizona and Colorado with my parent's for 2 weeks. They will all be gone for my birthday. 32. Holy crap!

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

What is up?

Whew! I made it to my parent's house for once. My computer is still down, but it is my fault for not bringing it over to my dad's to get it fixed. It's kind of nice though to not always be so worried about checking my email or what not. I've been pretty busy. I was working my usually seasonal job for the last three weeks. Halloween happened, of course (pictures coming), and I've been interviewing like crazy. I'm going to be looking into temp jobs this week. I got a call from one, and she was going to put me into this once company that I've put in like 12 applications for. So, it might be easier for me to just find a temp-to-hire job. At least then I'll be relatively done with this whole interview crap. I don't even get nervous anymore...I just hate it. I'd rather sit in a bath tub full of frogs. Ok, maybe not that, but something else just as painful... I seriously had a blog written up in my head every single day for the last few wee...
