I just wanted to drop in and say that I still exist and give a quick "hello" and maybe an update if there is anything to update on.  I'm sure there is...after all, it has been a while.
 
First things first:
Little Daily
She is doing very well.  I cannot believe my baby girl will be six in 2 weeks!  Remember when she was 2...or was it 3 when I started here?  She did give me a scare twice last week, saying her heart hurt.  Of course I overreacted and the child had heartburn!!!  I don't even know if she's really sure that her heart is on the left side...she was pointing to the right side.  I wasn't taking any chances.  For the LAST time we will be heading to Disney for her birthday.  I SWEAR...THIS IS IT!  No more! 
 
Mother-in-law:
She's still alive.  She invited everyone in her family down to Florida.  The kicker...we're paying to rent a house there.  It was supposed to be just the three of us, now there will be 8 of us.  Nice of her to not offer to go in on the rental since she royally screwed up my plan to just RELAX and it'll be near impossible with her there.  I care not to hear her and her boyfriend swapping insults with each other...especially in front of the kids.  I just hope things don't go nuclear!  She's a pig with keeping things straightened out, I am not.  The OCD is still in full effect so she best watch herself if she puts a dish in the sink and walks away! ;-)
 
Anxiety:
Still have it.  I've come to terms with the fact that I always will.  I accepted that. 
 
Back issues: 
Pfft...I accept that I will always have them.  I'm now boxing with a personal trainer to get me to use parts of my body that were not being used, but should have been, because I was learning to work those other parts to get relief in my back.  I'm pretty much being physically stripped down to nothing and starting from the bottom up.  It only creates more pain...but hopefully in the end it will be a big benefit.
 
Nightmares:
Still have those...they get worse around this time of year.  Little Daily's birthday.  I have flashbacks play like movies over and over in my mind. 
 
Therapy:
Haven't gone in a while.  Boxing is actually therapy for me.  I can't punch my shrink, but I can punch my trainer.  LOL!  Every punch that lands has a certain negative in my life in the "BOOM" and strike my trainer or the pads.
 
Mr. Daily:
He still works non stop.  Had to take a cut in salary in order to keep his job during the layoffs.  His boss was not spared and we miss him...yes, I do too.  He did so much for us when Little D. had her operation. 
 
Family:  
As of right now, they're all doing well...thank goodness.
 
House:
We took it off the market last year and I have come to terms with being stuck here for quite some time. 
 
I think that's about it for now!  I miss you guys and I'll try to come back more often.

    Well speak of the devil... 
     
    Hello there stranger!  :)
     
    Ginger and I were just talking about you last night.  Honest!!!  We were saying, "I wonder where Daily is..."  And here you are, with an update.  :D
     
    I wonder who else we can talk about to raise them from their sleep.  Any suggestions? 
     
    The message sounds mixed Daily.  Some good, some not so good, yeah?  Remember to duck and weave...  Fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee...  Eye of the tiger and all that. 
     
    Happy birthday to little D, of course.  :D

    hey you!
    so glad you put a post up to let us know how you're doing.
    time flies doesn't it?  my goodness little D's first year of school is almost over and before you know it she'll be a big first grader!
     
    i think the boxing is a great idea!
     
    pay cuts for us too-  my husband took a pay cut and so far all i've had to do is no raise, no 401K match, and no bonuses for 09-10.
    LOL
     
    have fun in Disney, and don't forget to wave as you pass my house!

    It's so good to see you, Daily.  :-)  It sounds like the boxing is good for you and that you enjoy it.  Try to have fun in Florida.

    I was just thinking of you yesterday!  Maybe I had a premonition that you'd be stopping by.  Sounds like you're dealing with life pretty good these days.  Yes, they do grow up fast.

    Well, let me join in to say that I thought of you this morning, too!  I believe there is something to this SC connection! 

    Good to hear that you are doing well, in spite of some things. I'm really sorry to hear about your husbands boss.

    You do sound like you have it going on there with the boxing (how cool is that?).  I could use something like that to vent some frustration myself.

    Happy early birthday to Little Daily, and I wish for you all to enjoy a wonderful time together and no bad dreams for you.  Sock it to the sandman!  Good to see this, Daily.  Take care and bless you and your family.  (even your MIL--sorry but I got a kick out of that first sentence about that part!)

    Hi everyone!
    Thanks for stopping in to say "hello!"  So nice of all of you {{{HUGS}}}
    I will of course come back and thank each one of you!  While I'm actually tired right now, I think I should take advantage of that and go to sleep while I feel like I can.  We're off to FL tomorrow evening...and we're driving!  "CAUTION!  NIGHTMARE AHEAD!"  I still can't do the driving thing without panic attacks!

I demand to know how it got here so fast, lol....
What is the cure for a loss of appetite? Recently, I cannot seem to eat much food, nor do I have the desire to eat. I am not sure why exactly, but I have experienced this in the past and have no idea how I got back to eating....
A few things I'm struggling with....
....its starting to look like that is not in the stars for me....
