it's almost october!

i know i havent been around for quite awhile but i AM still here. tho i post now and then i really havent shared much of what has been happening. well, now i will :)
today, autumn is really showing itself with blustery winds that i feel in the house, brr, gonna go down to high 40's tonite and wont even make it to 80 degrees today. it wont last, thankfully, it'll be warming up again tomorrow. yea i know, enough about the weather, ok, ok well for those who care, grab a drink and a snack and get comfy cause it's gonna be a LLLLLONNGGGG one, just to prepare you, it aint all pretty.
this has been one helluva couple of years. probably our worst to date and hopefully our last, that bad!!!
was doctoring WAYYYY too much and still feel like poop. hah
i am determined to get thru this and trying to keep up my spirits tho it has been terribly difficult, at times.
osteoporosis, arthritis, copd, hair loss and then two seizures!!! after an eeg testing, they found 'something wrong'... actually still got more tests in november to hopefully find out what's going on there!
it's been a real downward spiral, but i keep trying to fight it all.
depression is truly a bitch!! and has a real good grip on me for the past few years...none of this helped.
we are hoping to move to a better place within the near future (meaning not after TEN years waiting lol) been here way too long, with all the marine bomb practices and military activity with jets and helicopters maneuvers. the one neighbor shoots rattlesnakes at any given time of day or night, the other neighbor lets their 3 dogs out to roam free and the newest neighbor, after moving in with one dog, got another and another and i think he's up to 8 now. 4 are legal in our county but hell who hears when they bark? it's only on two occasions ...... literally DAY and NIGHT!
been on so many darned meds that i cant even have a shot or two (and since finding whipped cream vodka, a shot or two was REALLY tasting er, i mean, doing me good hehe)
hubby still goes to the swapmeet every weekend but i dont. havent been out much except to the doctor. sometimes hubby even gets me to the dollar store after the dr cause he wants me to get out more.
anyways, it HAS been tough on both of us. hubby's health isnt as good as it use to be either and getting older dont help none :)
i do still try and keep busy by crafting, tho i really dont have the space. sometimes i'll scrap, do cards and even sell them but since it's almost halloween, i have been playing around with halloween-y crafts.
made a black feather boa wreath
and some free standing ghosts
next project is 'witches potion bottles'. eh, it keeps me sane :)
what have you been up to lately? i dont really check on too many blogs but do see some of you on facebook and still love the work you are doing!
anyways, guess i brought you up to date pretty good. i hope you enjoyed your visit and i didnt bring ya down too much. such is life, good and bad. and heck, it wasnt even as long winded as i thought it would be, you got off easy haha
please know that i think of so many of you so often and wonder how you are doing. please do keep in touch and thanx for visiting, have an awesome day! xo
