Wild Wild West

Tonight has been a little bit like herding cats, but all in all, not bad!  lol

It was louder than usual with five kids, and I had to remind them to be quiet so they don't wake grandma and grandpa upstairs in their house, but it was really fine!  (both my parents have work in the am)

The boys are upstairs in my boy's room, settling in for the night.  I don't expect to hear from them again.  They looked pretty tired!

The girls have decided to sleep down here, in our play room.  It is right next to our bedroom, but that is okay.  The girls have the tv on low, and are snuggled under blankies.  They might eek out another hour and one more potty trip, but maybe not, they looked tired, also!

Hubby just went to bed.  I am making myself a snack so I can take my plaquenil.  My stomache and my whole body seems to cope better when I take with food.  So, I am trying! 

Every once in a while, I get overcome with a wave of nausea or dizziness, but it has gotten much less frequent.  Only 2 times today at all!  Yeah! 

Okies, time for a meme.

I saw this on technorati, but I tweaked it and made my own! 

Using the letters of the alphabet, alternate between three word statements beginning 'I am...' and 'I like...' with the next word beginning with the consecutive alphabet letter. (x='ex')

Begin with the statement of your choice.

A -  I am abstract.

B -  I like bubble baths.

C -  I am caffeinated.

D -  I like dancing.

E -  I am emotional.

F -  I like fireworks.

G -  I am grateful.

H -  I like history.

I -  I am introspective.

J -  I like java!

K -  I am kindly.

L -  I like licorice.

M -  I am mommy.

N -  I like naps!

O -  I am out-reaching.

P -  I like pasta.

Q -  I am quixotic. (idealistic) 

R -  I like restaurants.

S -  I am sentimental.

T -  I like travel.

U -  I am unfinished.

V - I like validation.

W - I am well-read.

X -  I like expectations.

Y -  I am youthful.

Z -  I like Zeppelin.

Wow!  That was fun!  I actually found myself feeling silly at first and then getting very 'introspective'!  LOL

Give it a try... and let me know, so I can check it out!

be well,
Dawn

"Only" two?  Gosh you're brave.  Kudos for all you do, for your refusal to let pain and frustration affect your everyday, busy, productive loving life!  One could do less than take a page from your book, Dawn.  I really admire you.  Oh, the meme, seems like a bit of good fun.  Thanks!  xoxo CATHY

I am glad the tabs are beggining to kick in...........Even if they do make a a bit sick. When you are down to no dizziness and sickness, you know the tabs are gonna work.
