Anxiety....
you know how people have anxiety attacks if they leave their house? I'm not like that, complete opposite actually,
when the dr. said "not mobile, rest" it kinda freaked me out. If you know me I try to do way to much, its not necessarily done well but I still attempt it.

Its not like I don't like my kids, I actually bring them to a lot of the stuff. Its that they cry more indoors. Seriously or it echos or something.

I think I'm a bit ADD whenever I start to clean I get sidetracked, like maybe by this dang computer or another chore or food( i eat to much when I stay home too).
So then the house never really gets clean. Some rare occasions when it does, like 2 days ago when I was so bored, I took a picture to prove to Eric it was, at one time, clean b/c when he gets home it looks like I didn't do anything.
that whole cleaning the house tends to make me anxious too...

Day one of Grace immobile...I made it about 3 hours and thought I need to get out of this house or I may break into that post pregnancy stash of vicoden(you all know you have one).
But I stayed off the drugs and came up with the carriage pictured above. I had to put Elsie in the backpack cuz I'm not a octopus.
We walked a good mile or 2. My back was killing me but I was killing time. They loved it too, sun makes happy kids.
Day 2 Today I woke up and for some reason said I was going to give up my diet Pepsi Max. I keep hearing that soda makes you fat, ruins your teeth, full of chemicals, la,la,la. Maybe going to all these drs and seeing sick people got me thinking or something. Well I was up to 2 or 3 cans a day, so I was thinking I should cut back. I really only drink it for the caffine so I figured why not just switch to those caffinated mints. HA, you were almost impressed, weren't you.
Grace part....
We took her to the surgeon and she was really good. She has a hot pink cast. They think she'll only need it for 6 weeks, I can do 6 weeks, i think. Shes a lot heavier with the cast but I got a wheelchair AND a handicap parking permit. This is the time of year I have to go to all those recitals and school stuff, it'll come in handy.
BACK AT HOME- I was popping the mints but they just weren't doing it for me. Maybe anxiety makes you tired? Or playing barbies for hours??
SO, I feel off the soda (not drugs) wagon about 2pm. It really does work, I suddenly had more energy.
Grace told me today, sometimes you used to be mean to me but not when I have my cast, your always nice to me now. UMMMM, your not hitting your sister or spilling things and I get you everything you want now. but i did feel a little bad. still yelled at trake and brynly when they got home for beating each other up. Brynly said she wishes she could break a bone too and be spoiled like GRACE(shouting of course). AHHH! see why I get anxious at home!

baby steps... cut back on soda, breathe... I teach yoga, geez you think I could relax. its like the men are from mars women from venus guy, divorced but giving out marital advice. i'm all about telling people to relax, can't do it myself.... rambling, sorry, i'll post cast pics later.
