     The kids go back to school on August 10th, so we have been busy getting uniforms and stuff for school.  I am really looking forward to my freedom again!  Last year, I worked a lot at my youngest childs school, but this year I plan on taking it easy.  If I work, it will only be 1-2 times a week.  I really need more time to do my "wife" duties around the house, but sometimes I just don't want to clean and wash clothes!  I was having a real problem with fatigue, but I started B-12 shots, and I think they are already helping.  I guess there goes my excuse for not cleaning or washing!  I use to be a clean freak, but since IC, I have really relaxed about the house.  I was forced to accept the fact that  my house does not always have to be perfect, and I realized I do have 3 kids and a husband who all need to learn to be a little more responsible.  My plan when school starts is to go back to the gym.  I use to go everyday after they went to school, so if all goes well, I will start working on ME again.  I am worth the time and effort!  Thank God,  I finally feel good enough to do what I want again.

I did order my Elmiron from Canada, and it was only $149 compared to $275 in the US.  I am now taking it like I am suppose to- 3x a day.  I am still feeling good, but when I eat what I shouldn't I can feel a little spasm going on.  It is nothing like it use to be, but I know I overdid it with whatever I ate.  It is so hard to give up so many things you enjoy eating.  I still eat them just not as often.  As long as I can tolerate it, I will eat it!  oh well, good night and sweet dreams everyone! Love and hugs to all!!
