As The Stomach Turns!

Sounds like a soap opera!  And it's my life!  Two weeks I have had a stomachache and I have never had anything like this before.  I usually just have stomach distress when I ate something bad or a flu bug got hold of me.  This is totally getting old!  The only time that I am not so aware of it is when I am out in the yard working.  I just chain sawed another dead tree today.  Man, was that a lot of work!  I have been burning all the trimmings and pruned limbs and tree trunks, but I never really get caught up. 

Damn, I can't seem to get a break!  I am now having to deal with family turmoil and strife; my husband is included.  I want to help out a friend and yet it seems that this is taking away from somebody's attention from me.  I wanted to just chain saw my life away this morning but it got too hot!  It has been some severe heat here; triple digits on thermometer.  I can't seem to win for losing; God is my only hope and salvation.  I pray that he gives me relief.

Well, the horse "doody" is over!!  Nephew dear came and got them on Sunday!  Mom was going in today for a back procedure that will correct her 3 crushed vertebrae.  YIKES!  I hope it works out; I wasn't able to go with her, but my sister did!  Only good thing she has done lately, in my book.  I have two sisters and I love them both but...sometimes it is hard to be in the middle.  I have had so much gastro-intestinal distress lately that I don't feel well at all.  I guess it is just stress but I feel really old.  I just rounded my age up!!!  I have been soooo tired lately!  My husband has been more supportive but is still extremely needy~!

Man, it has been a while since I have had the time to write!  I am now consumed with chores for my mom, husband and my nephew's 2 huge horses!!!  I am overwhelmed with this task.  Someone said "Oh well you can do it; it's only a month."  Well, I got news for them; this is no walk in the park.  NO wonder Dad didn't let us have a horse when we were kids!!!  PLUS my mom's yard is really not accommodating them very well.  They have already eaten all the grass that I didn't mow but we have no rain!  We are in a drought again!  And horses are big ol' pooper makers!!  I am cleaning that up regularly due to a really severe fly problem this year as well.  No manure is worth this.  I am dumping it somewhere else; let the flies have it over there.  I hope I can make it til the end of the month!  We'll see!
