Day8

This was my day off for the month.

I was planning on cleaning my own house and got to nothing but the vacuuming.

I had a bunch of paper work to fill out for Kaitlyn, so I thought that I should tackle that first.  This took the majority of the day.  I had to go through all of her Dr.'s and diagnosis.  Wow I never really knew how many doctors and specialist I had taken her to in 15 years.  TONS.  When she first was diagnosed with autism I was determined to find that needle in the hay stack.  I went to Wake, Duke, UNC, High Point, Charlotte, Denver, Moorseville, Winston Salem.  I think that is about it.  I was hoping to find that one doctor that had a cure or the drive to find a cure.  In my travels there were several that I went back many times.  Unfortunately they all kind of shook their heads and said Ma'am the best thing for you is to find a way to live with this.  She is now 18 years old, and I think I have come to the same conclusion.  That's not to say if there was another doctor out there with a cure that I would be camping out in front of his office for a chance for Kaitlyn to be seen, but you kind of live with it.  I do so enjoy her young at heart spirit.  Heck I will have Santa for the rest of my life.  She is already talking about the Easter bunny.

Wow I really got off on a tangent on that one.

So today was rainy and cold.  I  made chicken soup for dinner tonight.  Had a tickle in my throat all day.  Have been felling really run down.  I am of course blaming it on the lack of nicotine.  Not that the holidays have just past and it was a whirlwind of events.

Still no cigarette today, but yes I wanted one.  Looking at all the past trials with kaitlyn, I really wanted on just to escape from that reality.  I didn't :)

Hope everyone has a great week.  Don't forget to leave me a comment and your email address if you would like to join me in the weight loss challenge.

Hope to post my valentine decorations soon.  I plan on linking up to several blogs.
