quick update

Not doing so well mentally. I am generally happy, but super stressed even though I seem to not be getting anything accomplished.

The boys were out of their 5 hour Parent's Day Out program thanks to our local independent school district closing due to swine flu. Apparently one person in our county had been diagnosed with swine flu, although I am skeptical. See http://www.thedoctorwithin.com/swine/swine-flu.php to find out where my skepticism was born. That site has been in my favorites for 9 years. All began when I started talking to fellow female melasma sufferers in an online forum, that lead to an interest in holistic medicine, which was only exaggerated when I learned that my sister had a chronic kidney stone disease and my best friend was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.

Ah, this was supposed to be a quick update. So anyway, the boys being out of school threw me off, plus I have them for three weekends in a row due to some rearranging of soon-to-be-ex DH's schedule. Since DH has already had two out of town trips in May and because he still lives an hour away at his parent's house anyway, he isn't able to relieve me from the children overnight on a weekday. So there's the fact that I have been with my sons 24/7 since April 19th. Other than essentially 10 hours of Parent's Day Out and one Saturday night when I hired a babysitter so I could go into the city for drinks with a girlfriend for the first time in over a month.

I am thinking about saying something to someone I might be interested in. I love trouble, I'm not scared and I never chase men. I have a feeling this one might hurt short time, with long term potential. Or maybe not. Then as has happened before with others, by the time they are ready to admit their admiration, I have moved on to someone else. Indeed, worth a shot.

...and a swing and a miss!
