I went shopping with my sisters and mother after Dad died. None of us could think what to wear. I wore a yellow and gray dress. I thought of him every time I wore it after that day.
It's good to have as much in order before hand as possible, but in some ways it helps to have stuff you have to do after as well.
I'm glad your mother has VCOB and her sister close by. It is hard when you aren't living near your family. I haven't lived close to my parents for over 30 years. The whole being out of the loop thing is tough.
Is VCOB good with communicating with you?
Fruit loops:
I rarely remember to go to LJ anymore, but the friends page filled with gold stars is kinda cute.
IF I took an Alieve an hour ago would it be okay to take some Pamprin? I forgot I had that and the Alieve isn't doing any good. My house is a wreck, I made plans with dad for him to come over and watch Farscape and have dinner and I don't want to cancel but I feel like crap.
I don't know, askye. Isn't the Alieve like a 12 hour drug? What is in it? Could you take Tylenol, instead?
I'm not sure, I know I don't have Tylenol.
I won't mix anything. I feel better when I'm standing up though.\
Thank god for my huge closet. I just have to deal with the dishes and the kitchen.
Do you have a hot water bottle, or a heating pad? If not, maybe you can take a warm shower, or something. Also, try to drink a good amount of water.
I think I have a thermapath thing somewhere, but I'd have to turn the a/c down about 10 degrees for that to be bearable. It's actually getting better, I'll drink a bunch of water.
Recently my cycle has become more regular and a bit heavier. It's so weird to adjust to after a whole lifetime of a cycle that had no rhyme or reason and was extremely light.
I'm not sure if there's any real medical evidence, but it seems like the more stable I am emotionally the more regular my cycle is.
Possibly, you may be eating better or something.
Askye, this was me. Always irratic until I got into a serious relationship that I thought would involve children. Suddenly, like clockwork.
Fortunately, the steady stayed even when the *steady* didn't.
It's annoying. And eye opening. I would get terrible cramps and things like that, but not every month, sometimes, maybe 8 months out of the year. I'm not exactly regular like clock work, but I don't like this. I'm half way tempted to go back on Depo just to make them go away.
