  • Testing 1, 2, 3

    October 24, 2011

    Saturday  I took my 11 yo daughter to have an EEG done.  Last Thursday we had an emergency with her in that we could not wake her up.  She was breathing, but we couldn’t get her awake.  Her doctor thinks she may have had a seizure.  The CT scan she had done at the ER showed nothing abnormal at all – it was excellent.  The bloodwork they did again was excellent and revealed nothing that could have sparked it off.  So, the next course of action has been the EEG.  I’m hoping we hear the results this week.  I’ll be glad to move on whatever we find out – this being in limbo and not knowing is too stressful.

    In other news:

    *I have lost 2 1/2 pounds!  I am happy with that and will continue with my water and movement to keep that going.

    *I think I need to do crisis cleaning today.  I was gone for awhile on Saturday and needed to recoup a little before fixing supper so the usual stuff didn’t get done.  And yes, I know, I haven’t posted about the zone work pages in my Control Journal yet.  However, if you want to see what I’m talking about go here and I’ll be back later.  There is a link on that page that takes you to her detailed cleaning lists.  I will add here that they are HER cleaning lists and should be tweaked by you to fit YOUR home.  I will write more on that later because, yes, I have to get over stuff like that too and I’ve found a way to tweak her lists this time around (hopefully you will find it helpful too).

    *Matt came home for the weekend and it was a lot of fun – I feel like all is well when my kids are all around me at home.

    So,  that’s how things are for now and I’ll keep you updated.  I’ll get batteries in my camera to take a photo of the zone cleaning lists (that’s my excuse)  and get that post up later.  And I also need to look at the next step in making the control journal – it might be the emergency information section.  Timely isn’t it?

    :hooray: on the 2 1/2 pounds! I totally quit running in October. I did it twice. :( Hoping to get back in the rut again but then totally forgot about it yesterday. Of course, not feeling motivated that way today. LOL!!

    Thanks - I've got a long way to go but it's a start. Yeah, you gotta feel the love when it comes to exercising. It's the one thing I really need to do and yet, I practically cry just thinking about it. Maybe just do 15 minutes a day if that's all you can muster and at least it's something. Hmmm, maybe I should take my own advice...

About Me

Mom avatar

Hi - welcome to Oh Crap! and if you come back enough times you'll soon find out why I named my blog that.

I am an unperfect mom to 8 great kids: 5 boys and 3 girls (and I had them in that order too).

I have been married for either 40 really long or really short years depending on how my day is going.

Even though I have homeschooled my children for the last 31 years, I am certainly no supermom - unless you count the days I have to rescue my daughters from a moth in their room.

I love coffee, chocolate, and music from the 80's. I enjoy reading books, chick flicks, and thirtysomething.

So, that's me in a nutshell (and I'm probably more of a nut than you know). Thank you for visiting me on my blog!
