Hey my girlies! I have missed you both so very much. I have finally got a few moments to collect my thoughts and type...LOL. It has been a busy time at work but it is winding down a little....My Ringo and I have been in Biloxi for a couple of days at the Beau for a much needed get-away ( courtesy of Grandpa Nick)...That dear, sweet man treated us because he said we were working too hard and needed to get away. ( It has been so nice getting away, but back to reality tomorrow..LOL.) I so wish that I could spend time with Nick and Vicky more than once a year. I finally get good in laws and they live 3000 miles away. Vicky and I have the wildest phone conversations, though. I love talking to her. She is so funny! I wish you both could meet her. She is a doll.
Gypsy, last Saturday afternoon when the bad weather kept you from visiting, you missed out on a pitcher full of my new favorite drink...LOL... It's called Delta Diva..I had it waiting for you...It consists of Butterscotch Brandy, Coconut Rum, and Pineapple Juice...Yum! We will definitely have to schedule another time for you to visit before you go on your big journey so that you can try it.....I am praying for you that this will be "The ONE" and that you will go there and both fall madly in love and have your "happily ever after." I know you are so excited and nervous and anxious all at the same time. I remember how very nervous I was before my Ringo came to visit for the first time. I was shaking so hard when I met him at the airport that he had to just hold me for a few moments so that I could calm down...lol...who would've thought that we would still be here 7 years later?
I am looking at him from the corner of my eye as I type this and it makes me almost want to tear up thinking of all that we have been through and how much I love this man. He is so sweet and so good to me. I can't imagine my life without him. Gypsy, I wish this for you more than I can say. And I am so sure that Blondie is reading this now and smiling at her own sweet memories of meeting her true love for the first time and wishes the same for you. We have your back, girl! :)
Gypsy, I can so identify with you...where did all of these health issues come from?..I know the same old reasons that Dr. # 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 have given me...weight, age, lack of exercise,lack of sleep, improper nutrition, yadda, yadda, yadda...( I think I am smart enough to know that they are completely right concerning those things, and I also know that I have much work to do in all of those areas) but,I have been trying to back up in my mind to a beginning point and all I can come up with is that everything went down hill from the hysterectomy forward. I honestly think ( where I'm concerned anyway, Gypsy still has her parts and pieces) it goes back to lack of hormones at too young of an age to be without them. This topic is one that we could probably cover in several hours and two or three bottles of wine....I so wish I had never had surgery. I just haven't been the same since. I think fybromyalgia is just a new little catch phrase to diagnose anything that can't seem to be pin pointed. I am soooo tired of being in pain all of the time. I have come to the conclusion that drugs do not help, so I don't do that except for Aleve ( which really doesn't help much). Some days are just not worth getting out of bed. Some days it hurts to just walk...and if you can imagine, my hair even hurts.. But, I have found that I can't give up and give in. It seems that when I do, I feel worse. I would just love to know what it would be like to have one day without feeling this way...one day with no pain and being able to just bend over or stoop down without saying, oh, oh, oh on the way back up...lol....sometimes I wonder if it's like this now, how will it be in 10 years? I worry that maybe something is wrong with me and when the Dr. finally finds out what it is, it will be too late to do anything about it. I have had every test imaginable. I guess about the only thing I can do at this point is live with it and try to make the best of it and try to forget about it, but it seems these days it gets harder and harder. And I always tell myself that it could be so much worse and to stop complaining. Any advice, girls? I am so discouraged and worried about the future....I just want to be able to do the things I used to do and more than anything I look forward to playing with my grandchildren one day.
O.K...shaking myself mentally here...enough talk of distress....my girls are coming home this weekend!!! I am so looking forward to them being home. Jess will be staying until Tuesday of next week, so we have alot of catching up to do....Hoping we can go to the beach on Monday...
Well, I better scoot for now...got to go the grocery store...I am once again out of everything! For someone who is in WalMart every day for the shop, I don't understand how I let this happen..LOL
Wishing we could all curl up this afternoon with a pot of tea and talk girls...I could really use the "girl" company.
Love and hugs to you both.
