A Job Interview....and a ramble too.

I got a request for an interview with a podiatrist office locally and am just waiting for a date and time.  Feet feet feet....I do love working so we'll see where this goes.

My doctor that I previously worked with is also working on opening a new office as we met the other day and he is not at all interested in continuing in the situation he is in without the type of assisting that he had from my presence. 

What I cannot believe right now is that this time that I am off work here at home and we are now finished all of our summer trips I AM SICK SICK SICK.  I think the stress of everything is tumbling down over me and coming out in illness.  I want to clean my house....really deep clean it.....and get all the laundry caught up.  I'm hoping today is a better day and I can get something accomplished.

My pre teen drama queen is having a heck of a time holding herself together.  I don't know if it's the upcoming start of going to middle school....or is she just sick and it's giving her seizures in the night...or is she not responding to the increase in meds.  We have increased her tegratol by half  a pill in the evening and then two weeks later (Sept 1) we will increase it another half a pill in the morning.  We are hoping that it will help with the seizures and her coping skills AND being able to keep her thoughts organized for middle school.  We sat down together after purchasing a combination lock and figured out how to open it.  Prior to that she was melting down every other day about how she would never learn and it was too hard and she was scared.  They have lockers with combination locks in middle school.  We've mastered it and she is confident.  She carries it around the house every now and then opening and closing it.  There is much happiness about this.

All school supplies are labelled for my girls and now I need to weed through the closets and see what they need.  So far these girls don't need any clothes.  Why do I feel like I have to purchase school clothing?  All my life there were piles of clothing bought at back to school time.  UGH  I don't know about other kids but my girls only need indoor shoes for back to school and that's all they suggest they need too.  I shop for them all year long and I always buy those gap pants or that great sweater on the clearance rack that will fit the drama queen in the fall for example and put them in her closet so both girls have oodles of stuff.  So why do I feel the pull to drag my girls down to the GAP and buy them each a few new outfits.  I think I am broken.  I have enough laundry.  I'm hoping I can wait until it's cold out and then we can go out and buy some things.  Or not.....  Heck they'll wear their summer clothes for the first month or two back to school anyway.  Get over it mom!
