Happy New Year!

 About Sweety.  I was wrong about him not being able to keep his CDL.  He is able to keep it and continue driving.  He's having weird symptoms that his doctors/specialists say are not at all related to the aneurysm but they can't tell him why he's having them.  The aneurysm is 1/2 a centimeter too small to operate on so we will just continue to monitor it and I will continue to worry about it popping.  Fun times.

I took my second shower in as many days yesterday.  This may be normal for you but for my depressed ass it is a big accomplishment.  My New Year's resolution was to shower at least once every 3 days so I'm winning.  I'm also making it a point to keep my face clean and it's cleared up very nicely.  Go me.

Turns out when I said menopause was over for me, I was wrong.  I've bled like a stuck pig more days than not this month.  I was just too smugly happy with my period-free self.  Got back on birth control because the last thing I need is a change baby. 

The Bean wanted to wax her legs the other day.  I offered to do it for her but she wanted to do it herself.  She got the fronts of her legs done but couldn't handle the pain of doing the backs of her legs.  She wanted to get in the shower and shave the rest but I wouldn't let her because she'd broken out in little hives from the waxing.  I was afraid she'd shave over a waxed area and hurt herself.  She started to cry and have a meltdown because now her legs weren't "even".  Kid, I know how you feel.  She was able to shave the next night and all was rebalanced in the universe.

Chickie, I am sorry to hear about Stephen. I pray that the can figure it out. I hope you have gone to the doctor and ask for help with your depression. With all you have going on with Stephen, menopause and Sunny's legs you don't need to be depressed. Sending love and prayers your way.

You have so much going on in your life that’s unavoidable and from the outside looking in, you seem to handle it so well. That menopause messes up your whole body and brain for several YEARS. You are doing great, Chickie.

More years with the menopause?! Agh.
