Feeling Better – Update on Monica
Well let us see how last night went shall we?
I was trying to get this blog in some kinda order after changing hosts. I have a temporary Wordpress Theme up, but I like how it’s situated. Just not the colors or lack thereof. But, when I went to have fun and change stuff around the most HUGEST (is that a word?) headache hit like a ton of bricks. Oh my goodness. Then, it was so bad I felt sick. So, off the computer I went and straight to bed.
Then, the hubby comes home – bless his heart. Dotting all over me and taking care of me like the wonderful hubby he is. We watched Ghost Whisperer Season Two Disc Two – one or two episodes and I was done. I had a pounding headache and felt like crud.
Then, we got into an argument. A new one? No… more of the same thing. It didn’t end well so this morning I got on the phone and told him I was sorry. Lordy. Lordy. Being married means so many things, but one thing it means is ya can’t get away from them. LOL So you better make up.
Making up is fun actually. He’s been so wonderful lately, I guess feeling sick mixed with other stuff just set me off. No bigge – we *kissed* and made up so to speak.
It’s been rough here. He’s working so hard and my client base has dwindled due to so many things. So I’m barely making it financially. Which means, he’s doing all the work. I’m at home taking care of the house, making sure my kids get all their school stuff done, and working on the clients I have left – ’cause I love them and am very grateful to have them.
My kids are both in Independent Study now. It’s like homeschooling really. I have their schedule every day of what they need to do, I meet with their teacher once a week to get more work for them and turn in their assignments (rather, they do that – I take notes). BUT their report cards came in! WOW! It’s the biggest improvement I’ve ever seen from them. They are so proud! So is this momma.
So my husband is working away while I’m doing all of these things that are important – but, what happened to me holding my own financially? I was the sole supporter for over 10 years now I’m home? It’s a huge adjustment.
I’m starting school on the 20th of this month. I’m almost embarassed to say what for ’cause I’ve been laughed at a few times. But I’ll say it here – and let me be very clear this is what I had wanted since I was young, but babies etc. well… you know what happens to plans when you have the little ones.
Okay, my major is Physics. Yes, laugh all ya want. Who knows I could change my mind. I’m already an Accountant, this would be a complete career change that will take YEARS to get to. But there are some really neat opportunities just in the first year of being an undergraduate! No laughing… okay, you can laugh. We’ll see how far this goes, but at least I can go for it!
In February I’ll be 41 years old/young. I’m so extremely excited about my 40s! It’s me time after my Stephen is graduated in June of 2010. That’s not that far away. Jimmy goes into the USMC on June 14th, and my daughter is already out and on her own. I do have my Step Son Daniel that will be 14 (OMG!) on the 11th of this month, but his momma does all the hard work with him. I just get to love him to death when we get him. So I’m almost done… wow.
Many things are going on now in my life – I just want to be sure I enjoy ever moment of it you know?
Wow, life is Grand!

Good luck with Physics, Mon. It looks a bright start to the year.
Thanks Jean-Luc! New Year – Old Goals turn into new ones I suppose. Although I’m so ADD on things sometimes – but we’ll see. Happy New Year Jean-Luc!
How exciting!! I think you taking physics is awesome! My husband has his phd in Chemistry and I really cannot imagine him doing anything else.
I’m sorry you haven’t been feeling well, but your blog looks very good if I do say so myself, I love the themes by Brian Gardner, actually the Revolution is what I am using for my blog (I purchased it from his original Revolution series) back in November 2007! I put a lot of time into it (weeks worth) and just love it! I see his new themes but when I think of the time I have invested into my blog, I say naaa, I will just leave it as is!
Being home after working for so long is a huge adjustment..and takes time. I have been a stay at home mom now for the past 10, going on 11 years and the walls tend to creep around me. Online is my escape most days sometimes. I think my blog shows that LOL
I don’t think nothing but how great your going back to school and doing something YOU want to do for yourself. I hope you enjoy it!! I hope to some sense its challenging, I think that is what makes it more rewarding because you can meet that challenge!!
Hi Susan! Thanks so much for comin’ by. I’ve always loved your blog. I found you through Revolution/Brian Gardner’s site before it was Revolution 2. I also purchased the same one you had, but never had the time to have fun with it.
Yours is done very very well. I’ll play with this one for a bit to see if I can get happy with it. Although I appreciate great work, I’m not creative as others are. But that’s okay!
Being home is a huge adjustment. I’m still not even sure I should be here – but in the meantime I’ll keep doing what I can to be sure all ends are taken care of. Thanks so much for telling me your side! I do feel a bit – no very – lost.
Thanks on the good wishes for the schooling. I definately picked something that is going to challenge me for sure. Well, it should at least be fun while I’m going!
Thanks Susan
Tess I’m so completely EXCITED to see you in my comments listing! Whooo Hoooo! My sweet friend I haven’t had time to blog hop either! HUGE hugs!!
Thank you for the “You Can Do It” – I’m so very excited, it’s just gonna take years to get there ya know? Sokay… with my kids all getting old I’ll have time.
Thanks for hopping on my blog!
