One of Those Days....

I'm having one of those days.  You know the one that one minute you're happy and the next minute you're sad and then a minute later you're frustrated or anxious?  Yeah one of THOSE days!

It actually started last night.  I was having intermittent chest pains.  Now just over a year ago I had an acute angina attack.  Scared the crap out of everybody, especially me.  First the doctors said I had a heart attack, then it was a cardiac incident, then the doctor who did my angiogram said you're heart muscle looks fine but you've got some narrowing of 2 arteries that we'll take care of with medication.

So I got the crap scared out of me.  I take my medication faithfully and watch my diet carefully.  I exercise as much as my anemia and overweight body allow and then I push a little harder.  There was no medical follow up and nothing to indicate what caused it.  We decided it was unchecked and uncontrolled diabetes.  I once again asserted myself and demanded an endocrinologist.  My endo is fantastic!  He helped me get my 11 years of uncontrolled diabetes under control in  2 weeks!  I'm evening starting to lose weight again.  But I'm off the beaten track. LOL  I'll try to bring us back now.

So the minor chest pains last night turned out to be nothing more than bad dinner.  Not bad as in rotten, but bad as in bad choices.  I chose to have nachos.  Dumb choice but it was treat night.  So I had them.  So my one of THOSE days started with my bad choice in last night's dinner.

I paid for it all night with indigestion and no sleep.  I got up to 2 very cranky children.  2 very obstinate children.  2 very 'I'm going to do whatever I want and you can't make me do anything different' children.   No I don't have 6 children...yet. LOL

It's just one of those days.  Nothing is going right, no one is being co-operative, and I'm tired.  I don't want to do school work, I don't want to change stinky diapers, I want to curl up in a nice hot bathtub with aroma candles, a good book, and a wonderful hot mug of peppermint tea.  That's what I want to do.  But...I'm a Mum.  Calgon doesn't actually exist in my world.  So it can't take me away. :(

Yes, it's one of those days.  But I guess I wouldn't really have it any other way.  If it were some other way it wouldn't be my life and these wouldn't be my boys. 

I'll take it because after all, tomorrow is another one of THOSE days. ;)
