Need to do this More

Not sure why but sometimes I just can't look at this blog. Maybe it is because most of the pain I have experienced in the past 10 years finds its way here. There needs to be more happiness and just fun stuff so I will try to work on that. We are still continuing our meal planning but find that we change up the week alot more after it is planned. Scott commented, "Honey I love what you are making but I don't want to be eating at 8pm." He is right, I leave work at 5pm, pick him up and then Erynn up and we get home and it is 6:30pm. Then we have to change and cook and it is around 8pm on somethings. So in the last couple of weeks I have tried to go with quicker meals or things I can do before hand. But let's be honest since my days typically get worse from morning into evening, me putting something together for the next day that night is laughable. This week we have had Peppered Chopped Steak of which the hubby requested not to see again! Salmon and Spaghetti have also been on the menu.

I keep trying to self diagnose also which is really getting me nowhere. Is it perimenopause and I need to get my hormones regulated? Is it an allergic reaction to something? Brain tumor? Apparently they did not see anything screaming that in my MRI. I wish I could find a trigger and avoid it like the plague. Wait, maybe I have the plague?!

Anyway, we are getting ready to take a plane trip to Texas next week and have Thanksmas with Scott's family. Yes, you heard it right - Thanksmas! We celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas at the same time. Two birds, one stone - you know the drill! It is great because I do all that shopping first and then do the shopping for my family after Thanksgiving. It also gives us and Scott's brother's family (three children) our own times at Christmas. Erynn is excited about the plane trip. She has been before but was just over 2 I think at the time.

As part of self diagnosis I am avoiding fries starting today. The last three days I some how found a way to eat fries and every afternoon I have had the worst hot spells that I have every had. It would be a crying shame to have to avoid potatoes. As a Southern girl, I love my mashed potatoes.

Will try to come back more!
