Today was just ok.  I find myself pretty tired the last few days but I’m hanging in there.  Having Darick away is hard some times.  I have the girls and the chores all to my self.  I like not having to cook a big dinner every night and not having to get dressed or put makeup on if I don’t want to.  Despite having to take both the girls to school and take out the trash, the house does stay a lot cleaner without boys tromping through everyday.  I might even consider recovering my kitchen chairs again since I get a break from dirty boys sitting on them.

It’s so expensive to “live” I am so grateful to EVERYONE.  I spend about $1000 a month on doctor visits (urine tests, blood tests, and counseling with Dr. Mark) Then about $200 on supplements and $400 on ostomy supplies, not to mention organic foods, traveling to Boise and back.  I don’t know how to thank everyone for helping.  I truly could not get the care I need without you all!  I also appreciate those of you who encourage me!
