Hello.

This has been one wild and CRAZY week!

I've been trying to dig myself out of a blizzard of homework. I don't know how many of these posts I can read and respond to. But, I didn't want people here thinking I had just fallen off the face of the earth. LOL This week along I have read 8 chapters amongst classes. That doesn't include the homework assignments. They are trying to kill me in my last semester. I die slow though. ;)

On top of the piles of homework, I was stricken with some crazy itching disease. LOL For some reason around 2-3 am in the mornings, I would awake to a crazy itchiness on my legs. I would scratch and scratch....and scratch. After scratching, white bumps would pop up. The next morning, the white bumps would be gone. I became the joke at work. LOL My new nickname is "itchy." I bought Aveeno (spelling?). It didn't work. I bought hydrocortisone cream (spelling?). It didn't work. Finally, I decided that I couldn't do piles of homework and a full-time job without sleep. So, I made a doctor's appointment.

The doctor said, "You have hives." He gave me 2 weeks supply of Allegra. He told me that it could be caused by an allergy or for an unknown reason. The Allegra has worked. I can now sleep! Yay!

I thought the itching would drive me mad. One night, I thought that I would surely claw the hide off my legs. It is an itch I cannot describe. Whew! Nothing seemed to stop it until I took the Allegra. Thank God for that pill. LOL

At the community college, I've done my graduation packet and exit interview. Today in the mail, I had a letter and packet from a 4 year college in VT. The letter starts out like this..."We have heard that you are a motivated learner who has demonstrated academic success and that you are considering several options for your baccalaureate degree." During my exit interview, I stated that I was eventually going to try and obtain a 4 year degree. The exit interview was only 2 weeks ago. Wow, that's fast. I guess the college must share this information. Or either the 4 year college in Vermont is psychic! (just kidding on the last sentence)

They are psychic and I'm psychotic. ;) (picking again)

Okay, I must go for now. I'm hoping that tonight after doing more homework, I'll have time to respond to some of these posts. If not, do understand I miss the board and wish everyone well.

Big Hugs,

bug without the leg bumps ;)

Hey honey..
Oh things are good..very busy but good.
Actually, Mack's 6 yr old son has now moved in with us (he's been here a month) and so we're getting adjusted to different schedules and a much busier household.

He's in Kindergarten and loving his new friends and his school and stuff, and so far so good.

While he can be a handful, Mack and I balance well off each other and with some house rules put in place, things will be fine.

But thanks for asking! I'll make sure to post more often around here. I miss chattin it up with ya all..

Hi mami.

Thanks for that. I hope to be around more often - I definitely need to make sure to take 'me' time out and make my way here to the boards.
