A Mid Summer Nights Dream....

A Mid Summer Nights Dream....

Once upon a time.... Yeah, yeah, yeah, and so the story goes. It is officially the middle of my vacation. Its going by way too fast. Today is already the 2nd of August. In just a few days, my darling daughter will turn 11. Its amazing how this is all falling into place. She was born on August 11 and she weighed 11 pounds, 11 ounces. So this year on the 11th she will turn 11. Everyone go play the lottery. Just kidding. No one play it but me.

This past Thursday, my mom was in another car accident. This time I think the car is done for. Its been a jinx since she got it. The thing is, its brand new. She traded in her 2007 for a 2010. I told her that she shouldnt have done that but she wanted the new model with all the bells and whistles. I like the new bells and whistles, but now they dont work.

This time it was someone who decided that she didnt need to look at on coming traffic before cutting out into a busy four lane highway during rush hour. I wonder if she enjoyed getting hit in the driverside at about 50mph. Everyone is ok and no one got hurt. She admitted her guilt and also a few witnesses verified that for her. So now my mom is driving a loaner car again for a while. This time its a PT Cruiser and she hates it. I hate them too but what can you do.

My daughter is doing well on the new medication. She takes it at night and it helps ease her mornings very well. Shes perky and in a good mood. Nothing groggy and no side effects. I should knock on wood. But the thing is, In order for her to take this, she was taken off one of the other night meds. Now shes up half the night again. The only time she will sleep is when you are watching her because she knows she cant play or walk around the house. But even then shes just laying there in bed til the wee hours of the morning. I myself havent slept in days. We are averaging about 3 hours a night, if that. I called her doctor but hes on vacation til Wednesday.

I have decided to contact a specialist for my skin. For some odd reason, this summer I have had really dry skin. I drink a lot of liquids but that doesnt seem to work. Im not dehydrated. Just dry skin. Its annoying. If I use a moisturizer, it makes it worse or it makes my skin scaley. I have talked to others about this and consulted some websites. I was pretty muc told that it could be hormonal because of my age. This really sucks. Also I have noticed the same thing with my hair. Its turning towards being curly and frizzy. I have always had straight hair and I always take care of my hair. Thats a major thing with me. But maybe it is hormonal and things are changing. If so, then this sucks even more.

Sorry to hear that things aren't going all that well. Could the hair thing be caused by the extra high heat and humidity this summer? I've been wearing mine up because it hardly ever looks good due to humidity effects. Plus I don't have to dry it and it is cooler off my neck.

It could be. I dont have curly hair. But I seem to now. LOL Its been getting better though. The heat, I mean. Even going to the mountains is bad. Its humid there too.
