Anxiety, Stress and Panic

Today has been one of those days that I'm reminded just how challenging life really is. Sometimes I think I'm just so acclimated to the stress and chaos that it seems normal. It takes a day like today for me to realize just how stressed out in really am. Nothing went right today.  From the moment I woke up, everything just went wrong.  Emmett has been in rare form..all day long.  It's like his sole purpose is to destroy everything.  He's literally throwing anything he can get his hands on.  He's bullying Elliott and Gavin both.  ....and the screaming,  oh God the screaming.  I just can't even begin to tell you..... Lizze is in week 5 of her migraine and absolutely miserable. She's not in the best of moods,  which…

The irony

Many of you out there know that I'm huge into technology and have been repairing computers for years now.  My computer is officially dead.  The irony comes in the fact that I can't fix it because it's the motherboard that's bad.  This is going to throw a wrench in the other wise,  well oiled machine that is the Lost and Tired household :-\ You never truly appreciate anything until it's gone...

Tasty Treats

My mom made these for the boys and I thought I would share with the rest of the class.  These are little cake balls on a sucker stick,  dipped in chocolate and made to look like an owl.  I thought this was a really cute idea and thought someone might like to make them for their little kiddos. If I can snag the recipe I post it if anyone is interested.  Just let me know :-) - Lost and Tired Posted by Wordpress for Android via Samsungs Epic Touch 4G (provided to me at no charge by Sprint) without the use of proper editing tools and disadvantages of a bastardized version of auto-correct.

Another long night

Lizze has an appointment with one of her neurologists at 7:30 am.  Elliott and Gavin are spending the night with her parents and Emmett will hang out with my mom in the morning,  so I can get Lizze to the appointment. This appointment is important because Lizze has had this migraine now for weeks.  She needs and deserves relief from this constant onslaught of pain. I'm really hoping they can do something to help her.  I'm not sure when this will post but I'm typing this from my phone at 2am. I can't sleep cause I'm not feeling well and I can't take anything because I need to be able to drive in the morning.  NyQuil bas been my friend the last two nights but it's really hard for me…

Married for 8 years and I’m still learning

Lizze and I have been married for over 8 years now and I'm still learning new things every day.  Today I learned that I should ask her what I can do to help,  instead of just doing it without asking. I'll be completely honest, I don't fully understand why but I do understand it's important to her. Lizze is not the easiest person to read, so whether I understand or not, I know enough to respect her request. We live a very challenging life and so anything that can make it easier for her is worth it. :-) Sometimes it's the little things...right?   :-) - Lost and Tired Posted by Wordpress for Android via Samsungs Epic Touch 4G (provided to me at no charge by Sprint) without the use of…

Independence is Independence

Out of nowhere,  Gavin has decided that he wants to trim his own nails....all by himself.  At first,  I was like no.  However,  I realized that this was a bid for independence and I should not stand in the way of that. While he's stalling struggling with this a little bit,  the fact that he wanted to take this on is a huge victory...at least in my book:-)   Hell yeah... Great job Gavin :-D - Lost and Tired Posted by Wordpress for Android via Samsungs Epic Touch 4G (provided to me at no charge by Sprint) without the use of proper editing tools and disadvantages of a bastardized version of auto-correct.

Missing Shoes

Elliott was unable to attend school this morning because we couldn't find he shoes. Can't very well send him to school without shoes....right? We literally tore the entire house apart looking for them without any luck. We'll be lucky if we don't have to go out and just buy him new ones. I have a sneaking suspicion that my little Mr. Emmett John had a hand in this.  He is nitorious for taking things that aren't his and relocating them, never to be seen again. It's like he works for the witness protection program. We finally had to take Gavin to school before he was any later. This was fun explaining to the school...sigh   Update: Shoes were finally located and Elliott shipped off to school.
