I Almost Forgot !

This day was put aside, as I was in no condition to do much of anything other then take our Aussies out, about and in, other then maybe a 1/2 hour of paperwork.  I haven't even made the bed yet.  When that happens you really know something is wrong with me !!!

Last night I had to go to bed at 6:30 pm, sleeping right through pretty much until this morning.  I had to go back to bed, wherein I slept from after 9 am until 11 am.  With no energy I was back and forth twice this afternoon to bed.  Good thing when a friend dropped over to see the puppies this afternoon, it had been between my being in bed.  Jeez I wonder if she noticed my hair hadn't even been combed out.  Wouldn't matter as she is a good friend, non-judgmental and understands things like this.

I do not know what is going on with me, but I can tell you I do not like it one iota.  I am drained.

I can not believe how many times the thought went through my head in April, with me ending up forgetting that as of April 23rd, 2013 ....

"I broke my habit of smoking and quit Four Years ago on the 23rd of April."



Believe you, me, there have been many times where I have been tempted to have a cigarette since quitting.  Then I think about my Asthma, how much I hate the smell of it, my clothes smell better now, only smelling of smoke from the wood stove from when it has backed up on occasion  *sigh*, and that I do not have to stand out in the freezing cold in the Winter to have a smoke anymore.  I hate cold !

It is one habit I am thankful that I was able to beat, as it is not an easy task for some of us.  Actually I am very grateful that Rob and I never killed each other when I quit.  He had also tried to quit without succeeding, but when he was trying to quit there were days it sure wasn't a pretty sight around here.  Thank God we love each other is all I can say to that.  Ha ! now we only have to deal with menopause, among a few other obstacles Life insists on throwing at us from time to time.

The most excitement I have had here all day, other then my friend and her daughter popping in to see the pups, was my gazing down at the Everything 8 puppies throughout the day.  I could stand there most of the day watching on, even at barely 4 days old.

Have a look see yourself HERE, and tell me if you could tear yourself away after only a couple of seconds.

We are getting down to the nitty gritty with only 5 more days to Vote once every 24 hours ... YIKES !!! my fingers, toes, and eyes are crossed.

YIKES !  maybe I am a whole lot little bit on the stressed out side, with taking another big step out in Faith, but a Wife has to encourage, support and believe in their Husband, and I do believe in MY Husband.

On that note, one more tidbit of cuteness of brother and sister snuggled side by side ....


...and, once again,  I am off to take my gang out, about and in, "Just North of Wiarton & South of the Checkerboard."

  4. Congrats on the quitting smoking and sticking with it , It is a tuff habit to kick I am still trying ! Your lack of energy and no get up and go cause it got up and left could be a B 12 deficiency I felt like that for a long time and that's what it was with me I was B 12 anemic ! Hope you feel better soon and get it resolved so you have some get up and go ! Have a good day !

  5. Maybe it's stress causing your fatigue Cindy; it's such a terrible thing. Someone told me recently that you are born with an allocation of adrenalin and once it's gone, it's gone!

    The puppies are adorable and I could watch them all day....

  7. Congratulations on quitting smoking for this long Cindy! What a huge obstical it is to overcome, keep up the great work!
    That fatigue feeling is the pits, I get so discouraged when it kicks in with me too, but as Country Gal said, could be a deficiency, I am going to try the B-12 myself as so many have suggested and I've not gotten around to it...too tired I suppose :)
    Those pups are amazing! Hope you feel better :)
