Sorry sorry sorry ----

Have not had much time to do ANYTHING!!!  We've had a new updated version of our accounting system installed at work and I've been working 10-12 hour days, then my aunt needs tending, my kid needs yelling at and the hubby needs his time too - LOL.  Needless to say I'm exhausted and I usually pick up e-mails and haven't returned too many.  Sorry sweetie didn't mean to scare you.

I'll be here real soon and give you all an update on EVERYTHING!!

BTW - mom's doing fine and I'll fill you in on that too.

Luv to all.

Stacey

Tami - Sometimes you need to do something like that because you can't help people who don't want to be helped (or don't realize that they need help).  How's your sister doing?

Okay so time to let you know what's been going on in my neck of the woods....

Things at home are great.  Jeff is my rock through everything that has happened the past year or so.

My mom is doing well and finished her first round of chemo.  Now they've started the 2nd round (only one drug compared to the 3 drug combo.  They did a CAT scan and said that the tumor on her ovary has stayed the same size and has not spread in any way.  They will do a hysterectomy after she finishes her round of chemo.  And then they'll put her on a pill that she'll have to take once a day for 5 years.  She's in good spirits but gave us a scare after her 2nd to last chemo session.  She started having alot of shortness of breath and was very lethargic.  They did some tests to ensure that her heart and other lung was not being damaged and gave her the thumbs up sign.  She feels much better now and looks forward to not being so runned down all the time.

Anthony is doing well but is still a head strong young man.  He turned 20 in January and has decided to have the attitude of "well I'm an adult and you can't do much about it".  Well I've got news for him.  Although his college is paid for we have been trying to instill on him to take responsibility for a little of it.  Trying to teach him that things can't always be handed to him and that his dad and I was not human ATM machines.   Since Anthony insists of making everyone of his and my conversations an argument I've backed away from him and he only speaks with his dad right now.  I'm through with it and when Anthony laid another bomb shell of possibly going to Hawaii for the summer with a friend I realized that his priorities are not in the right place and told Jeff that I can't take it anymore.  He refuses to take any responsibility in his education and expects everything to be handed to him.  But there's a big surprise awaiting him because if he decides to go to Hawaii then he'll have to come up with 1/2 of his education and living expenses for the next year.  Maybe that will help in learning that the "spoiled brat" syndrome days are over and he needs to be a responsible young man.   I know it sounds a little harsh, but I'm tired of bailing him out financially.  He's constantly overdrafting on his bank account by a lot of money (300 -400 each time) and we've been bailing him out.  Well, the gravy train has stopped.  UGH - KIDS!!!

My aunt is thriving after a hospital stay for fluid around her lungs.  Her memory is slipping fast.  Actually I can't believe how fast dimentia can take over almost full force on a person.  I go to see her every other day at the assistant living facility and try to keep her calm via phone the rest of the time.  They finally put her on Zoloft for depression and she's doing much better with the crying jags.  She's now more calm.  A good example of dimentia was yesterday.  I got a call from the facility saying my aunt was having shortness of breath but yet her blood pressure was just fine.  After speaking with the personnel I finally determined that she was having a panic attack and hyperventilating.  I talked with my aunt and told her that I would be there within the 1/2 hour and that they'd monitor her until I got there.  As got up to the facility within a 1/2 hour and she was surprised to see me and was BREATHING NORMALLY.  When I asked her if she was okay she said "hi honey what are you doing here, I'm just fine".  When I told her that I spoke with her on the phone she just looked at me and said "I did?"  Gosh -- having dimentia really sucks on the family.  They say it's harder on the family then it is on the person who has it.  I have to agree.

Work has been keeping me extremely busy with a new accounting program being installed.  It's taken us a couple of weeks, but we've almost complete in getting all the bugs out of it. 

Well.....  that's enough for now.   I'm going to try and get a little more sleep.  I was up at 4:00 a.m. this morning because my back was killing me.

My love to you all.  And Tami I promise not to scare you anymore. Next time just call and yell at me!!!  LOL.

Stacey
