Poor Evalyn has molders coming in on all four sides this week and it has caused a runny nose, cough, low grade fever, irritability, meltdowns, and frayed nerves. This week has been very difficult for me physically. I'm so, so tired that every move has to be thought about, and thought about, and then I might make a move. I think that after they start the hormone replacement therapy next week, I will start to feel better and hopefully Evalyn will start to feel better also. The plus is that she has been taking longer naps :).
So I have back fat. You know that little roll around the back rib that makes your bra, ladies, or bro, guys, not fit right anymore? Yea. That's great. I'm wondering what is going to happen to all this skin when I lose the weight. Tummy Tuck? I wouldn't put it past me. I led music class today at Full Bloom and they had a childs and a maternity fashion show. I was gathering my musical instruments and other items when the pregnant women came into wait in the same room. I didn't want there to be an awkward question about when I was due or something, since I was in the waiting room for the fashion show, so I went on to some how slide in the fact that I was on steroids and should maybe buy some of the clothes. Weird.
Music class was so fun, I taught twinkle twinkle little star in language and this kids love the shakers. I hope to make a little part time thing of it and can hopefully earn a little spending money. Speaking of money. I'm officially disabled.... that is so strange.... most of the time I don't feel that I am, then sometimes I know there is no way I could really work right now. Playing my guitar and singing every once in a while is not work, that fun, and I don't HAVE to do it. I am very impressed with the Athens Clark county ladies at the SSDI office. They work hard to get my disability rolling within about 40 days, which is unheard of, they were so nice and understanding. Apparently, acute leukemia is a "shoe in". I hope to go back to work at least part time as soon as possible, or go back to school, or win the lotto, or recover from a stem cell transplant. Geez, I gotta get off these steroids.
It's football season again. I love the beehive buzz that Athens gets but I don't really care about football. I want them to win so that everyone will be in a good mood and I don't feel like I have to cheer everyone up. To me football, is beer and wings, and I get to dress my little girl up in something very cute. If there was a pill I could take to like sports better, I would in a heartbeat, as long as it didn't contradict with my other meds. Don't get me wrong, I had the earrings on and red and black and watched part of the game, but really I just wanted to snuggle with my little bulldog, Wallace.
I guess it's molar time! Emilie has three coming in but happily they don't seem to be bugging her too much.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, back fat! Getting fitted for a bra helps, since apparently none of us wear the right size. But it is what it is. I would love a tummy tuck -- whole body lift, really -- but plastic surgery is way too pricey, so I just am learning to live with my deflated areas. ;) You never know, since you have not carried the extra weight for years your skin may snap back way better than mine!
I am glad that you get to lead music class. We have so much fun in ours -- you could consider getting certified to do Kindermusik maybe? Something like that? I know our teacher loves it because it is so flexible and she sets her own hours so she can be there when her kids need her. She also teaches piano out of her home.
I am so glad that the people at the SSDI office are working well with you. Some people who really need it have a tough time getting on it -- I should tell you sometime about my former co-worker whose husband was disabled due a brain injury. They had to get a lawyer to get his SSDI...
Anyway. I don't love football either -- I could care less -- but Emilie does have a little Georgia outfit. I love Evalyn's bulldog costume!
