Quiet Saturday Morning....What to do?

Wow! Shhhhh it's quiet! I just realized that I would blog more if I had a new keyboard and a comfy chair...what an excuse! lol
So, we sold my son's Jr Dragster last weekend. It was kind of bittersweet, but he will end up with another one. He wanted to go to Disneyland with some of the money, so that cheered us all up! No one can be sad at Mickey's house, and if you can, then you need to be on meds!
Of course I had to wear my sparkly ears and my tiara. Together, they look like 1 piece and everyone asks where I got them...but I don't give away my secret =) I get to be the only Princess Minnie there, and that tickles me.
My hubby got on a roller coaster and shocked the daylights out of me. It wasnt a super skeery one, but he doesn't like drops and dips...but he liked it! My son talked him in to getting on it, he is too short to ride by himself, and I was fighting a head cold, so I wasnt about to do it.
The only down side to the weekend was the 7 hour ride home with no AC and it was over 90 the whole way, AND I had a full blown cold by then. NO FUN!

A couple of weeks ago, I opened my graphics program up for the first time in forever. I forgot how much I love doing it! All the pretty colors and things you can do!
This is what I have been up to

You're Killin' Me Smalls

Today was a complete son of a bitch of a day. I fell asleep at 6 am. That was my bed time for last night. My darling little Princess of a daughter woke my up at 10:30 and my body reminded me that I have a demon living in side of me. Everyone has those days where everything you touch turns in to flaming piles of dog shit, I know. 2 PM found me throwing a literal temper tantrum in my back yard and then I came in and threw things. A lot of them. Rule #1 as a Lupie. DON'T GO OFF YOUR CRAZY MEDS! I have a date with my Cymbalta first thing tomorrow morning tomorrow afternoon when I get up. So when did the switch over happen here between being a Princess Mommy, and a Lupus Warrior Princess? About a year ago I was diagnosed with SLE. This winter has been rough! I've known for over 6 years that something wasn't right with my body, it just takes finding the right Doctor and having blood work done at exactly the ri...

Conversations that we should not have to have in our daily lives

So, I was perusing Facebook yesterday morning while having my coffee like I always do (when the baby lets me) and I ran across a status by a lady in my neighborhood saying that she was approached at a stop light by someone in another car trying to get her to pull over. They followed her on to the freeway, continuing to harass her and chase her down. It was midnight and I am sure she was scared to death. She said that she called 911 and they sent an officer to her location and the person took off, wrecking farther down the road. Later in the day, hubby and I went to take my teen boy to his girl friends house so that they could smooch or whatever (I don't want to know). On the way home I brought up what I had read and we started talking about what I should do if the situation ever came up. By what I should do, I mean what I should do after I piss my pants. We go over the whole thing about defensive driving, hit the brake, let them pass me then bump...

Hitting the Wall...Crash & Burn

Most days I can flow along like nothings wrong, even if I'm feeling a little rough around the edges. I can move past the brain fog, push past the aches and pains and just live survive. I may get a little cranky, quiet or overly perky. It just depends on the level of what ever is going on. Then there are the days where you're swimming along, just floating down stream and someone hits the flusher and your whirling away. It happens fast and you can't stop it. Things start hurting, I get so tired and my body slows down to the point that I can literally count my heart beats because I can feel it. Heavy arms and legs, dizzy head, the works. This is a little harder to motor through and usually where I have to SAY something out loud about how I'm feeling. Today was one of those days. The best I can describe is it cruising along at the speed limit and suddenly spinning out and hitting the wall. Mos...
