Running screaming

so have you ever had a weird couple months were ya like don't really do anything but you are exhausted! I woke up a couple weeks ago and decided to do something.. now I can't shut it off. I am compelled to do things. I am cleaning out every cabinet closet like I am moving soon or nesting. I am obsessed with the dusting the vacuuming the? whatever. I hope it will shut off soon before I run out of stuff to throw away. My cabinets are alphabetized now..who freakin does that. now I am worn out...

so we have a roommate now... Sam is starting Kindergarten next fall...Bryce is getting biiig!... Mark needs to stay out of the hospital!! I mean it no more hospital time this year period! 4 times in 6 months! I am losing my mind.... perhaps the impulsive cleaning thingy I don't know. I don't know. I also babysit my roommate's daughter... bringing my kid total up to 3! I don't tear my hair out daily .. just every other day. I haven't blogged because I have been tooo busy
can you believe it I feel like I have been doing nothing but I was too busy to do things I enjoy. I hate it i do...

Sam's 5th birthday next friday email me for details.

25 loads of laundry

Why is it that we seems to own more crap than we could possibly ever use in a lifetime? I often wonder about that! I am again tossing crap out my doors and windows calling ENOUGH! Mark hates it when I get fussy and throw stuff away, but he is generally in a good mood after the clutter has been eradicated! I really hate living in a cluttered house and would rather live in an immaculate one! However I do own two boys, a husband, a dog and an alley cat, so the probability of having a clean house is like sweeping pine cones off a forest floor.

me meth paper!

I had to write a meth paper for one of my classes.I was going to post it however I am worried someone might steal it...

I think it turned out ok! I have been so busy with life that I haven't posted. I am not pregnant...yay! I was worried after having the essure done it would be very bad if I was pregnant it would most likely be a tubal pregnancy and could be life threatening. So anyhow what give a false positive pregnancy on a test? PCOS! again yay! I am so sick of PCOS I thought I had conquered it during my last pregnancy with Bryce. My weight is up and therefore I am experiancing symptoms again. So they have me on metformin I have lost 15 pounds already! I hope the weight loss continues! The metformin is making me sick again I have been puking and having diarrhea however I have less pain in my ovaries and have normal periods again so you have to weigh the benefits. I don't want to end up with ovarian cancer so I need to continue the medicine. Plus cysts are no fun at all!
