Three Months
It’s been over three months since my last post. Wow. Just… wow.
Nothing major has happened to keep me from posting. Just the usual ups and downs. I’ve actually been getting along pretty well for the past few weeks. Better than usual for me, at least. I’ve still been tired more often than not, and I’ve got some other health crap going on that I need to get checked out. But I’ve been doing a decent job of not letting it get me down.
Pumpkin also has some health junk going on. She’s been getting dizzy a lot, so I took her to the pediatrician. She checked her out pretty thoroughly and did some blood work. Turns out she has low vitamin D and elevated TSH. The TSH is an indicator of underactive thyroid, so she put her on medication for that and made her an appointment with a specialist. We were scheduled to see her yesterday, but it snowed just badly enough to keep us from making the 2-hour trip. So we rescheduled for next week. I’m anxious to get her down there, because I’m ready to find out just what exactly is going on and whether or not it will explain the dizziness.
A little good news: I’ve got the finances under control for the time being. With Hubby and I both being sick a lot over the holidays, we got in a pretty major bind. But we got our tax refund, and that helped us get caught up on everything. It would have been nice to splurge on a new dining room set or a SimplyVanities.com bedroom vanity, but I’d much rather have the peace of mind that comes with knowing we’re not going to lose everything we have. We’ve still got more debt than I want to think about, but I’m hopeful that we’ll be able to dig our way out before we’re old and gray.
So there’s what’s been going on in my life in a nutshell. I almost forgot how therapeutic blogging was! It definitely won’t be three months until my next post.
