I officially have more time now to do my most important job, which is be a mom.

I have more time to cook, clean, play with my kids, take them places, take more pictures of them, volunteer at school, eBay things I don’t need or use anymore… AND I have more time to blog! – the list can go on and on. I am going to be a good stay-at-home mom again. And not only that, I intend on being a FUN mom. But although I have all this time, my body doesn’t play nice and tells me to reel it in. I have all these great ideas and intentions of fulfilling them, but I’m limited by… well, everything right now.

I just started my new medication, and it will be one week tomorrow. No real change as of yet, but some new symptoms coming on as a result of me trying to do too much. By the end of the day I am done, finshed, caput. I just want to try and catch up on life. And I will. I have to.

I remember this SAHM gig when my boys were little – and now I remember how much I loved it!

Now I have to go check on the homemade chicken soup I am currently cooking per request from my 6 year old. And fold my laundry, put it away, and start the next load. Finish the dishes. Pack a lunch for T3 for tomorrow. Then finish making DadaWise’s favorite taboule. And maybe go to sleep at a decent hour tonight!

Ay caramba!
Oi vey!
Good grief!
Jesus Maria!

I am so tired of feeling bad. I’m incredibly fatigued in general. My legs are heavy – it’s tough to move around as much as I would like to. I’m limping on the left if I move around a lot. My right eye is bothering me again. My left arm is dis-coordinated. I’m having a bit of trouble finding words. This is so incredibly frustrating!

Although today is better than yesterday and the day before and the day before, so it goes to show you how bad things have been since last Friday.

Please let Monday come soon, and pray that Gilenya works for me! I need some stability in my life and stability with this disease!

Our goal is to be able to learn how to swim by next summer so that I can stop having heart attacks whenever they get in the water.

Thus, we are signed up for awesome swimming lessons every Monday at this place called Swim of Things.  They totally rock!  It’s like having semi-private lessons – two/three kids to one instructor, and they are amazing with the children.  I can’t say enough good things about them!

I can’t believe my little fishies had their heads under the water and wanted to do it over and over again!
