A very premenstrual Christmas

Happy Holidays from the girl crying in the corner!

We’re all lodged at my parents’ home, the Midwestern ancestral estate, playing Wii bowling and getting on each other’s nerves a little bit. I’m still feeling like shit, plus riding some sort of post-weaning hormonal roller coaster, plus looking at this Low Residue Diet that does not include a proviso for chocolate. Fucking chocolate and it’s fucking stomach-irritating potential.

But all is not woe and drama. I have taken a nap every day since we got here. I have half a dozen siblings and siblings’ boyfriends to play with my children (“RAYGUNS!”). I have been reading Gossip Girl and totally not even hiding it. There are piles of sugar cookies laying around and a hot tub calling my name.

But if Santa skips our house this year, I’ll bet you it’s because of the flabby moody hairy intestinally-distressed woman crying in the jacuzzi out back, she scared him off.

Merry Christmas, Supa friends! I’ll report back later once my mood stabilizes and I have lovely pleasant things to say.

Awww….I feel so bad for you and the premenstrual problems. Wish there was something I could do to cheer you up. Waaaaa…

Well, if they gave you prednisone along with whatever lovely drugs they decided to start you on…that could explain the weepiness as well.
Sigh…sorry about your tummy troubles. They rot. Really rot.

I am also on the No Chocolate For YOU!! regime and feeling a might bit, er, no, ferociously put out about the whole thing, especially since everyone knows how much I love chocolate so they keep shoving it under my nose. Darn sensitive kidlets, even for the very little (overall) that Lochren is nursing, one chocolate makes him whimpery gassy for a night.
*sigh*

Take care, hon, if Santa skips your house I’ll personally kick his ass for you.

This too will pass, MB. You’ll be back and rareing to attempt some new craft insanity before you know it! Don’t forget, butter mints and carrot cake (with cream cheese icing) do NOT have any chocolate in them. So they are safe and healthy!! Santa loves you and so does everyone else. *HUGS*
