I have a crafting event with the newcomer's club today. I'll post a picture of whatever we're making when I get home.
We ended up having spaghetti last night so maybe the vegetable beef soup tonight.

I really wasn't up to doing anything today so I was going to stay in and make some chicken soup. Plans have changed...MIL just called and invited hubby and I out for dinner, she thought it would be a good idea to get out and have dinner.

I am keeping it simple tonight, as I am running out of steam. DH will cook steak on the grill and I have a couple of potatoes baking in the oven. Probably some green veggies as well.
Today I got the parcels to my sons sent off to Australia - just hoping they make it in time, especially the personalised 'My first Christmas' ornament I bought for Sophia. After that, I was just so tired that I came home and knit all afternoon on the sofa.

Plans have changed...MIL just called and invited hubby and I out for dinner, she thought it would be a good idea to get out and have dinner. I'm glad you have someone in your life who is loving on you today. Kudos to your MIL. Eat something delicious. Hugs. My mother has invited us to dinner. She's being cagey and won't say what she's serving so I guess it will be a surprise. I'm kind of not happy about this because a surprise is fine for me, but my DS won't go at all then. He's so picky. I also don't really want to see my sister. I love my sister but sometimes she just rubs me the wrong way. And it shouldn't, really it shouldn't. But she's such a perfectionist, she's so hard on herself that she can't just ever be happy with someone else, she always needs to be better. I can't imagine how exhausting it must be for her to always have to outdo everyone else. And remember that mistake I mentioned about a month ago? It was a financial thing which I screwed up because I don't always think right. Well today I received confirmation that it is all taken care of. So I'm able to finally but that anxiety to bed. Happy day, ladies!

Great news!!! I did make the Pad Thai yesterday after DD whimpered about changing plans, so cauliflower soup and grilled cheese sandwiches are the plan for tonight. She was at her surgeon's for a post-op visit and we now have the final paperwork needed to file our insurance claim. Surgery was preapproved for half the amount of breast tissue that was actually removed so it should be a straight forward process (fingers crossed).

This has been some kind of week, I really haven't felt like myself. It's hard to describe. My Christmas tree is sitting in the living room undecorated.
Dinner tonight is going to be pork chops, broccoli and cauliflower, maybe sweet potato fries, and applesauce.
Sending Pea Love to scrappintoee. I am sorry you are in so much pain, that really sucks. Praying for some relief.
Sue So happy to hear that your dd is doing well. I know that whole thing had to be so scary for your family.

This has been some kind of week, I really haven't felt like myself. It's hard to describe. See if you can close your eyes a bit and meditate a little. If you need to, focus your eyes on an object you really love. Or wrap your hand around a stone or crystal and focus on that. I know exactly how this out of body feeling is. If this doesn't work, then just embrace it and chalk it up to, you just don't care about the tree right now and it really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. Maybe you'll feel like it tomorrow or next week.

DH put ours up last Tuesday so I could decorate it and we could take our Christmas picture with DS for our cards. I just couldn't get into it so I got the clear glass bead garland on it and put bows that go on the stairwell and fake poinsettia blooms that will end up in a vase, on the tree so we could take the picture. In the meantime DH got the offer accepted so I've been doing all the paperwork and I had been achy from the shingles vaccine and my arm still hurts. So the tree will join your tree on the undecorated bench.

Hugs scrapmaven and The Birdhouse Lady. I hope that you feel better soon. bklyngal62 I am so happy that your MIL suggested dinner out. Please know that you are in my prayers. KelleeM I hope that you are having a good day. scrappintoee I hope that your pain subsides soon. My knee is telling me that rain or snow may be in the weather. @sunnycalimom I hope that your DD feels better soon. And fingers crossed; that you are not coming down with something. jeremysgirl I am hoping that your dinner goes much better than you think it will go. bc2ca I am happy that your DD’s surgery was so far, approved. Hoping the rest gets approved. Tonight is either Tacos or burritos. Depends on what they want to eat for dinner.

I reeeeeeeally need to start eating better. I worked from home, so I had time to be able to cook something nice. But instead I finished painting the lounge room and entryway walls. DSO had been to Costco the other day, so we had a freezer full of junk food. We ended up having mac & cheese balls and chips.

Tired, so I haven’t done much today, but I made «fiskegrateng» for dinner, which made my mom and DD happy.

Good afternoon ladies.
Add me to the group of ladies that's having a week... actually it's been the last couple of weeks. *sigh* DD#2 is having a lot of trouble managing her anxiety. She was in therapy a couple of years ago but we got to a point where she felt like she was in a good place and so did the therapist. During the time she was in therapy, she said it helped and she enjoyed going. When I've suggested on a few occasions that she might benefit from going back, she gets nasty and says that it's awkward, she hated going, she didn't like the therapist...all contradictory to what she had said previously. And she has refused to even entertain the idea of going back. But in the course of 2 weeks, we've had 3 separate incidences where she gets obsessive about something(grades, possibly catching an illness, where is she going to college, etc) and it ends with her crying. It's all anxiety driven, I'm sure of it. Tuesday night, right at the time she was heading to bed, she got all teary over the fact that she *MAY* catch an intestinal bug that her friend's family has had. She blew it all out of proportion and acted like she was the only person to ever catch an illness send that everyone else likes getting sick. Logically she knows that is absurd but when she gets in that kind if a state, you cannot reason with her. It was 9:30pm when this all started and by the time she went to bed it was almost 11pm. But a lot was said during that time... about her constant negativity towards everything and everyone... how she can be downright mean to her twin for no reason... how even the best of friends can end a friendship because the constant negativity can be too much. And how up until now, we haven't forced the issue of therapy... but we're at the point that the anxiety is taking over her life and idea making her miserable. I feel like 90% of the time, she's not happy. And that I walk on eggshells because I don't know what's going to set her off. We told her that it's time she revisits therapy to get control of this before it completely consumes her. She isn't overly happy with that (big surprise there) but we can't keep on like this. I'm emotionally exhausted and considering therapy myself because I feel like I can't do anything right when it comes to her.*sigh*
Sorry about unloading like that. I have one friend that I talk to about this stuff and she's been there so she's a huge support. But I'm just overwhelmed trying to deal with dd.
I picked her up from school this afternoon after her club meeting and was met with "today wasn't a good day" yet when I asked her why it wasn't, she said it just wasn't. And her twin was already home and they had invited a friend over so she was also here. And she was teary so i tried to be upbeat, engage in conversation that was light, and she pulled herself together enough to go hang out with them.
Dinner tonight is pork tenderloin, which has been slow roasting in the oven since noon, boxed mac and cheese(because friend is a picky eater), and steamed broccoli. We have to eat early because we have to drop friend off on the way out of town on our way to soccer training.
Thankfully dh offered to swing by and pick them up at 8pm so I'm going to drop them off and then go to Target and TJMaxx.
Hugs to all of you that need it. I've been reading most days but just haven't been up to posting much.

I have one friend that I talk to about this stuff and she's been there so she's a huge support. But I'm just overwhelmed trying to deal with dd. My DD is bipolar. She is 19 years old and is rebelling against her diagnosis and resisting treatment. She can be incredibly nasty, mean, hurtful, explosive. She can get ugly. UGLY. On the flip side, I love talking to her when she's in a good mood. I love connecting with her emotionally and we are able to do so. The only way I have survived the past 5 years is to tune her out when she's like that. I had years of feeling like I was experiencing the PTSD trauma I experienced growing up with my explosive father. Every time, I would be crying and shaking by the time she was done with me like an 8 year old scared of being hit by a 250 lb man. It took me a very long time, a revisit to therapy myself, to just WALK AWAY. I mentally shut it right off. I can't help her when she's like that. Nothing I say works. She needs to ride it out and swing back to normal. THEN we discuss what happened and whatever was the root cause of what was bothering. Sometimes days later. I know we want to calm them down, we want to take away their hurt, and solve their problem. You can't reason with someone in the middle of an irrational, emotional crisis. Save yourself, save your sanity. Trust me on this. I send you my warmest hugs.

A local place in town is serving their German sausage potato soup today. It is delicious! I'll make some grilled turkey bacon melts and call it good. Last of the Thanksgiving leftovers.

Hey ladies, I'm doing OK but my depression is still kind of getting the best of me ... I saw my therapist today which was helpful ... my issue is that my dd's are totally being little shits to me these days Dd's are 16 and 20 and live with me since ex and I split up ... right now I go out with my friends once or twice a week and dd#2 is always giving me the evil eye every time ... both girls think the sun rises and sets on ex and think that I'm a bitch from hell ... they forget that he's the one that left me ... I'm the bad guy in their eyes and he is the greatest I'm trying to process my own feelings while considering theirs ... it's hard ... the four of us are going to sit down this weekend and hash things out ... they can't treat me this way ... simple as that. Thanks for letting me vent I think dd#2 needs a new bra so I'm taking her to the mall tonight ... we'll get dinner there ... food court food for us It's a joy parenting teens isn't it brandy327

The last 6 months or so when she gets like that, I'll calmly try talking to her for a short period but when I realize it's a lost cause at that particular moment, I tell her firmly that she's in that state where I can't talk to her and she needs to go to her room until she can pull herself together. She usually goes to her room, cries for 10-30 minutes and then several hours later we're able to discuss stuff. But it's all just emotionally draining. I've never gone to therapy but I think once I get her set, I'll be looking for my own.

I've been reading most days but just haven't been up to posting much. I would say it is more fear. Fear is very much in control of anger and anxiety. Fear of the unknow. Fear or pain. Fear of vomiting and feeling sick. Fear of not being in control. That all leads to the anxiety, anger and even sadness. Once they can get a handle on what the fear is, they can talk through it, work through it and be better equipped to deal with that emotion and process it as well as what they can do. Fear also makes all medical conditions worse. We are working on that right now in therapy. Dd had a huge break through Monday and wow what a difference.

The entire reason I had her start therapy was because the things she couldn't control would cause so much anxiety. And she couldn't figure out a way to cope. Therapy seemed to help but it also seems so much worse this time around.

Once they can get a handle on what the fear is, they can talk through it, work through it and be better equipped to deal with that emotion and process it as well as what they can do. Fear also makes all medical conditions worse. We are working on that right now in therapy. Dd had a huge break through Monday and wow what a difference. Yes!! The fear and the lack of control. The entire reason I had her start therapy was because the things she couldn't control would cause so much anxiety. And she couldn't figure out a way to cope. Therapy seemed to help but it also seems so much worse this time around. We notice that when dd's medical issues are good/okay, her mental health is better. When the medical is front and center, the mental health is worse. Also for dd having her on Seasonique bcp has done wonders. 3 months on, 1 cycle. 3 months, 1 cycle. So only 4 cycles a year. They were super long and heavy and made the medical conditions spike. And when she isn't busy, her mental health needs spike.
