Flare ups...

I've been very busy lately. I've been working a lot. I've been working almost 10 hours of overtime every week :( It's really stressful. It's been causing my RSD to flare quite a bit. It's peaking at about 6/10, so it's not as bad as before the SCS, but it still sucks. Hopefully before to long my company will find a way to get me back on my regular 40 hour a week schedule.

In my last post I mentioned my husband was sick. He's feeling much better now :)

Busy as a bee

The last time I posted an entry we were moving. We're done with the moving, but we're not really unpacking unless we need something. We're so sick of it all at this point.

We've been so busy. My husband has been working long hours at his job. He usually works late into the night, which doesn't really jive with my early morning schedule, but we're working though it. I've been working overtime at work again. There's so much to do at the end of the quarter.

A couple of weeks ago a local brewery had a beer festival. We had plans for a bunch of people to come over afterward, but only our families ended up showing up. We still had a great time, though. We made chili, pulled pork, mulled cider, and this delicious buffalo chicken dip. Everyone had tons of fun.

Then this week my husband got sick. It's nothing serious, and I think he's on the mend, but I've been taking care of him. I had been planning on using Friday night to unwind. Instead I sat up until 3:30 with my husband becase he couldn't sleep. It was a long weekend...

It's been kind of stressful, so the pain level is a bit higher lately. I'm thinking of taking a vacation coming up in the next few months. I really need to talk to my boss about that.
