Normal!?

Well, one word to say..... FINALLY.  Ear, throat, head, etc all normal today.  No swelling, no pain, no vertigo.  No nausea.  My appointment cancelled for today.  Did some cleanup work.  David got off to school, no problem.  No blow ups, etc. this evening.  (I think the PBJ while Paul and I were eating Prime Rib last night did it.)  I am a little stressed about going on vacation (and yes, the trip is still on, sheesh!)  I am a little stressed about packing and getting work done but not shut down.  I am not working OT tonight.  I did go to my Health Circle at the Y, but it was only me, 1 other woman and the facilitator, so was kind of shame.  I did 45 minutes on the treadmill, 3.6 mph walking.  No weights.  Will get those started back up again when I get back.  Prednisone is done as of yesterday.  I will deal with the eating when I get back as well.  Making my packing list now. 
 
The good news:  I am an Aunt again!  My SIL just had a baby this AM.  Lucia.  Pronounced Loo-CHEE-ah.  8 lbs 7 oz.  She is adorable!  My brother's son, Rian, is 4.  He was kind of hoping for a baby brother.  He is my doll baby too. 
 
When I come back, I am getting back on track with a vengeance.  Going out and getting all this out of my system now.  There is a work out gym in the hotel where we are staying.  So I will focus only on getting 10,000 steps a day for now and add the rest when I come back.

At Vegas you can get 10.000 steps just to get out of a casino/hotel. Have a fun time in a fun city.
So glad to hear David is back on an even keel. Teenagers love to play the power game. My daughter is going through that now...the nasty mouth to her but knows he can\'t do it with anyone else. Teenagers are like overgrown 2 year olds.

LOL! I\'ll chime in on that too...good call Joyce!

But yes, good to hear that David is behaving better for your sake and for his. They just have no clue when they are that age the vengeance karma has in store for them! I know I got mine just as my mother always said I would! LOL!

Glad to hear you are feeling better and that your vacation is still on. Just go about getting ready for vacation in small 15 minute spurts and try to relax and let the stress go. It\'ll all get done and when you get there if those two BOYS start up their shenanigans again just go to the spa or go for a workout and leave them to it! HA! That\'ll learn \'em!

Have a nice trip, hope your Easter is pleasant and you get time for you. Ditch the boys, do your own thing and enjoy your vacation!!! Sure Kona will be fine, in great hands....! Good job for planning ahead, I know you will get those steps in!

Wow you sound so much better ... glad things are starting to go in the right direction.
Listen to everyone get out and enjoy all you can while on vacation.
I bet you use the Hotel gym at least once while you are there.
10,000 steps in a hotel easy.. right. :) especially if you walk around the casino then out the door for some fresh air after each meal. you will meet all your goals
Have fun relax and smile....
Happy Easter.

David has \"both\", the teens and the mental going on here...I know how that works too! ugh! :p
I really wish you would still take a few days for you hon...it would be so good for ya!!! And Paul may need it too, ya know? He is at his wits end and does not handle that well at all! He needs to think w/out everyone and all the drama that is David\'s, and his... You are the rescuer, and the rescuer needs to refuel my dear!!!! :)
Does Paul workout at all??? He could use some outlet for stress too!
CONGRATS AUNTIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful name btw.... ;)

Congrats on being a aunt! How exciting! I\'m glad the vacation is still on, you so need and deserve it! I\'m sorry about the health circle meeting, it\'s too bad more people don\'t take advantage! Glad to hear you are doing better and you are back with a vengeance!
