It was a good day.... well almost.
I enjoyed my daughter being in the play at her school this weekend. It was Annie. She was one of the towns people and Daddy Warbucks staff. We are so lucky we have the Pokogon tribe that funds alot of our schooling and the Drama Club has it going on! I even got back from the play today and went to a friends house to scrapbook and visit. Didn't get as much scrappin' done as visiting but it did my soul good, but not my pocketbook! LOL I love the Close to my heart stamps and she had 1/2 off! Crazy... On the way home though the snow was falling harder and harder, but the time I got close to home I was scared to death! The visibility was crap and the roads weren't much better! To top it off, my chest is hurting tonight, I hate hurting but the bright side is the stress with my on-going homelife has lightened up... for now!!! Thank you Jesus. I'll have to post some pics after I get some from my cousin, my cam was left in the car!

Hmmmm
Well, I have gotten my van fixed and heard, "I love you" for the 1st time in awhile. I think someone doesn't like to feel unloved. I guess it's true what they say communication is the key after a few days of this sarcasm and cruelty, I was asked what the h*** is wrong with you lately..... Well, he asked and I unloaded. It was so weird because that's not really me. The funny thing is that I don't think he really gets it. At least I got alot of raw emotion off of my chest and apparently it needed to be said and heard. I pray for this situation every day to move ahead and forward. It's just hard to be in love with someone when you don't know if they love you. It's very painful when he's still the one who makes me tingle and my heart skip a beat. I think there comes a time when you have to walk away if you are not getting the same affection back in return. Honestly I physically could not pack and move in the state I am in. I can't even go into wal-mart without an electric w/c. I cannot walk that far. I also cannot imagine living without him. My guts wretch just thinking about it. I am worried about who will care for me when I can't. See I really don't know how this is all affecting him either. He doesn't talk to me about this stuff. He won't. He won't talk with me about anything to do with my illness me dyeing or anything negative or realistic. This illness has taken it's toll on our lives. I am so afraid of it all. I just wish there was a guarantee in this life. I know there are none, I just have to keep my eyes on God and let him guide me through this life as he has all along. When doubt fills me I must remain steadfast in him. Sometimes I just forget or faulter in faith. Pray for me if you are reading this. My family is my life, I love my kids but I love my "Family"

Do unto others....
I have decided to "Do unto others" I hate to say it but I think this may be the way to go. I have decided with my home situation to start treating him like he has been treating me. Boy have I gotten quite the reaction. Wondering what's wrong with me. Mind you I am usually the wife that does things for him. I buy little what nots and make special gifts. Usually special keepsakes. Videos, pictures, altered art etc. Well, I have decided to take a new approach. Do unto him like I have been being done to. Sarcasm and non compassion. Gonna see where that takes us? Hey, maybe he'll get how it feels to feel mistreated or just uncared for.

Sittin' at Cf clinic.
Well, it's time for my check-up and as usual I am sick! I can be good till my appt then I get sick.... go figure. I am really feeling down today cause my van's been running like crap and my heater works when it wants to. You think my husband would offer to drive me? I even asked to drive the truck but ..... yeah right. I am feeling bad about our situation again. If I can't depend on him for a ride how am I supposed to depend on him when I'm laying flat on my back? I pray for God to have his hand in this situation. I have enough depression without feeling so uncared for & unloved. I thank God everyday for my children and their love without them I don't think I would have the mental strenth to endure much more. I know I really need to get back in to my therapist but I have been trying to get to church more often. I really don't like how I am feeling at all. I often pray for this all to just end, but I don't want to leave my kids. I am pretty certain that this is not the way I should be praying. I can't help how I feel though. It would be even nice to know others were around that cared. I rarely get phone calls from my own family anymore just to say hey I'm thinking about you and wondering how you are feeling. I bet the funeral home will be packed but where are they now? I'd rather know they give a crap now then when I'm not here. Yeah, I'm having a pity party but really. I can name at least 10 ppl right now that when I do see them they act like they care for me, but where r they now???? Hey it's my blog I guess I can vent here if I want. I have felt pressured into removing posts b-4 on here but if you don't like the truth then stop acting heartless!
