I have IMS

You have probably heard of IBS, which is Irritatible Bowel Syndrome, well, I have Irritatible Mind Syndrome. Anyone else?

I believe the cause of my IMS is from one, or a combination of, of the following:
* not taking a vitamin
* feeling a lack of a goodnight sleep
* not taking the Efexor XR, as prescribed by my physician.
* kids not listening (the girls) and me having to repeat myself on the very same question that they had JUST asked me 5-10 minutes ago. Repeat x?...until I yell that I will not answer as I have ALREADY answered the question, and just because they do not like the answer does not give them permission to ask it again. AND if they keep it up, they will go to their room.
* a whiny two-three year old who is determined to have things her way, and a four year old who is determined NOT to let her have things her way.
* money...everyone understands this
* a small house with less than 1200 sq/ft and five people. Typically, one person is designated to clean it. (Though there is interception on an occassional basis, which IS appreciated)
* no personal, private space; to relinquish all concerns of the big, wide, scary world that exists outside the doorstep, to study, or to read (due to space indicated above) (and no one gets this in this house, so we all feel this)
* and last but not least, not excercising.

Ahh, expression is good. I feel a tad bit better all ready. (lol) I have work to leave for in 15, and I want to express my thoughts on the book, "Eleven Minutes" by Paul Coehlo, so I will write maybe more tonight.

HEY!!! Let me just remind you that things could be worse...i.e. an apt with approx. 900 sq.ft. and 5 people, wanna trade? Love you.

I think, in this case, I'll keep my square footage. :) And you too are the primary cleaner-upper, so you have my empathy! and, you also sew, and cook fabulous meals, and work part-time, and maintain a sense of humor, and do crafty things with your kids...you are amazing!
