Here I am- awake at 2:45 in the morning. I went to bed like a normal person at 10pm. Trying to be responsible- since I have to go into work early today. Nope!!! I am awake- have been since 1:45 or so. What is wrong with me?
I have my endocrinologist appointment later today- I want to get off shots. I joined the Y- and can’t go for the next month because of my heel spur. I am a team leader for Live Healthy KC and can’t do much activity because of the heel spur and the plantar fascitus, I am the team captain for the KC AIDS Walk- and won’t be able to walk this year because of the PF and heel spur too!!
I work at KSD- the State of Kansas is in the hole- budget wise and I might get my hours cut- may have sick leave cut (wonderful- since I am needing it right now for my stupid feet!) or/and cutting paid holidays… I finally get a decent job and then it turns on me. So we will keep praying.
No job prospects for Bud either. Very frustrating there. He could work at Taco Bell- or someplace like that- but the pay would suck compared to his unemployment. So it isn’t worth it.
I am kinda regretting leaving Sorenson- but at the same time- I get to spend time with my family again. I am seeing Nathan more- and I think in general he is a happier kid having his Mom around more. Money or family?
Speaking of Nathan- I register him for Kindergarten March 25th. WOW!! He will be 5 in July- and is already planning his birthday party- and getting excited about riding the school bus. Hard to get used to- he is doing so much for himself these days. He is a smart little booger too. He loves to read- and sound out letters and he is quite the little bowler. Not sure if I mentioned it or not- but he is back in a league. He was the only kid on his team until last week. He has a coach and last week he bowled an 80! We practice every Sunday after church – yesterday he bowled a 70- but he was very whiney yesterday-I think he was tired. We will see what he does on Tuesday I guess.
We watched the Super Bowl- and it was “okay” we had to switch over to “Wipeout” during half-time. Nathan is addicted to that show. He bawled when we switched it back to the game. Kurt Warner is the man!!! I was sad to see the Cardinals lose the way they did- but with all the penalties…
Super Bowl Sunday is a hard day for me. My dad died 3 years ago- right as they had the kick-off. I have cried the past 2 years during the National Anthem and until the kick off- I was definitely a “daddy’s girl” and it still hurts my heart.
I wish I could sleep like a normal person. I haven’t slept well in a long time. Don’t know if it is all the money stress, health-pain, or worries or a combination of it all. If I don’t sleep it affects my blood sugars- terribly. I don’t know where to turn at this point. prescriptions definitely may be in order- but costs- are outrageous!
Oh- almost forgot to share my insurance problems! I signed up for a new plan- one that covers Bud’s and I’s lab work since we have to get our med levels and stuff checked so often. So- Oct I change it to “plan B” and then in November I had to resign from my CNA job so they could post the job- so I did. Well-HR put in for my resignation. Mid November I get my current job (a promotion!) and somehow that promotion did not register in the system. Bud needed a prescription at the end of November and I called insurance and they said – well your policy ends November 30th! WHAT????!!!! So, I contact HR… yep- find out their error. Have to re-apply for my plan from last year for the month of December. So I did… I asked them – will I need to reapply for January- NO- you won’t have to do that! Fine… so I didn’t.. I get my new cards- they have me on the wrong plan! I am so irritated… so I contact HR again. I had to fill out a “communication form” and mail it- I can’t fax it… so I mailed it… 3 weeks later- still no change. So again- I went into HR office. I had to reapply again- and fax the form this time (duh- why couldn’t I do that to begin with?) Then Saturday I get a letter saying that I re-applied to add my husband and son- and that I shouldn’t have- because they were already covered… ??????? It is all- goofed (would really rather add a harder descriptive word there) up. UGH!!!!
Well- I think my pain pill is kicking in… gonna try and go back to bed and redeem some more rest of some kind…
till next time- thanks for reading!
my little bowler
