Sayonara

adieu, adios, arrivederci, auf wiedersehen, au revoir, bye-bye, cheerio, goodbye, good day, sayonara, so long. It doesn't matter how you say it, It's hard to say goodbye especially to a dear dear friend. A friend that has been there for you through many many hard times. One that you could count on no matter the hour, no matter the trial. One that is such a good listener it just sits there and drowns out your sorrows. I am sad to announce this, but I have had to say good-bye to a dear dear friend.....My Dr. Pepper.

I have been struggling with some really bad stomach aches and REALLY bad headaches. After consulting with my Dr. he felt it was best for me to give it up. He advised me to go cold turkey on all forms of caffeine, including the Excedrin I was using for my headaches. And to also stop using the Ibuprofen I was using for my head. He thought maybe all of this was actually making my headaches worse. So last Monday (Yes it's been 11 days now!!!!) I quit everything completely. Needless to say I had a week from you know where. But I am happy to announce that I am feeling much better. I had one moment of weakness and Mike and I ordered a Dr. Pepper and it didn't even taste good! I was so happy, but a little disappointed.

After a really long week we were able to end the week with a fabulous weekend. My dad and Laura took the kids for the night on Friday night. Mike and I decided to go up to Park City and do a little shopping, and go out for a nice dinner. We were going to go out to a movie since Mike always complains that I never go out to movies, but we were both exhausted. It's funny how your body stays on the same clock with or without kids. So we decided to come home and rent a movie off our TV...which I'm so glad we decided to do this. We watched August Rush and it was SOOO good. It was just a feel good kind of movie. The next morning Mike had a ward golf tournament so I got to sleep in and then I woke up and got some much needed house work done. It was awesome.

The rest of this week has been up and down for me. Hopefully with trying out some new things, things will start to progress for me. Until then Mike has been so great to support me and deal with my unreasonable mood swings. He brought me home these beautiful flowers the other day, Flowers always make me happy:)
