woke up this morning to a pile of snow on the ground.  school closures all over the place but my kids only have a 4 day school week anyway.  I seem to have problems with my eyes.  They hurt pretty bad this morning and everything is blurry even with reading glasses.  I have had a numb spot on my lower spine which feels odd.  never had anything but foot go numb really.  I am going to see a counselor tomorrow.  I meant to do it in Sept but then my son tore his ACL and I had to pay for all of his health bills.  He had to go to PT and doctors and there was no time for me to take for me.  I need to talk with someone other than my hubby...not that he isn't supportive of me but he tends to make me a little more stressed about things.  He always tells me to just blow this off and that and then he doesn't follow his own advice.  He can blow off a coworker treating him like shit but when the kids have a bad day he can't just let them be.  He has to yell at them and tell them that he runs the show.  Sometimes  I think his parenting style is corrections officer style.  Almost military like but with more control over an individual.  Ah well.  I will go and discuss my misery with a counselor.  i will tell her about the stresses of my health and the bullies I dealt with daily at work.  I will discuss how they both combined to help me lose my job.  too little too late.  
I am having too much trouble typing today. not getting the right keys and backspacing too much.  will just put this aside and go rest my eyes a bit.

I took Megan back to the doctor. She has been going numb and feeling tingly too. He told her to take potassium pills. I wonder if that will work. Just rest your eyes and try to relax for the day.

I\'m glad you finally have time to take for you and you will be able to go and \"spill\" to a counselor. Maybe she can give you some tips to help you cope with the stress you are going through at home and the job loss you went through as well.

Talk about backspacing, if you could see what this response looked like before I backspaced, you would have a good laugh.

Gentle hugs,
