Honestly, I thought I had deleted my personal blog when I created our travel blog.
In 2015 my husband and I moved to California from Virginia. My husband and I moved to Oceanside, California, which is in the Northern Part of San Diego County. Oceanside is in between San Diego and Los Angeles.
In August of 2017, My husband was Leland Labuguenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12335230300934273986noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4818554406321852017.post-69193427353753732052014-10-02T14:04:00.001-04:002014-10-02T14:04:22.833-04:00Relay For Life Team Recruitment VideoLeland Labuguenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12335230300934273986noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4818554406321852017.post-18240103875744899062014-08-21T21:25:00.002-04:002014-08-21T21:25:50.746-04:00CrazinessI keep forgetting to update my blog.
So much has happened since the last time I updated.
So much craziness has been happening lately.
Work schedules, travel schedules and so much more.
Hopefully, I can get back into blogging here soon and update my blog on a regular basis.

Mainly because I have always worked a job where I got off work at 5-6pm and by the time I get home, I feel like I am already behind the dinner schedule.
When I was married to the moron, he worked nights for awhile, so I worked until 630pm, I would get home at 7pm. He would get up at 10pm, so I had time to cook.

Basically, it lets you "check in" to the merchant or restaurant where you are. The merchant sets up their page and they can offer discounts or coupons.
Its also a great place for reviews and photos of the business.

The last couple of months before he came home from deployment was really weird.
Before he left, and after he first left I was spending alot of time with friends, and suddenly they just stopped speaking to me in May.

So I should be catching up on all the crap that happened during deployment,  the crazy stalkers, and other things.  But I am going to rant about movies.
About a year ago, I got some free passes to a movie screening from the newspaper.  It lead me to get nosey and wonder how all the other people got their tickets.
So I did some research and got on an email list.

So I haven't blogged anything since August. August was when my fiance', now husband came home. I have been going crazy ever since and I really haven't had time to update anything.
So here is the quick and dirty.
Yes, I am still struggling with severe depression, severe headaches and body pain.

I should be in a totally happy mode because I have the date when he will be home and he is actually coming home early ahead of the ship. So it should be extremely exciting.
I should also be getting better because I have been on Cymbalta for about 3 weeks, so I should really be feeling much better.

A couple weeks ago I had these crazy symptoms and I was sick for over a week.
Luckily, its gone.
During the time frame when I was getting over it, I met my shrink who put me on Cymbalta. Cymbalta is supposed to not only help me with my depression, but it is supposed to help with the random weird pains that I am having all of the time.

I spent a week sick as a dog, I went o several doctors and even the emergency room.
I'm sure the bills are going to be lovely.
I have finally finished my course of medication. I just have to go back next week for a final redo of the blood work to make sure that my white blood cell count is back to normal.

The FRG President spontaneously stepped down right before it, so the event was a communication nightmare.
The event also took unorganization to a new level.
I'm hoping that since there will be a election of new officers that things will be better organized.

It was rainy and miserable outside and it just made me feel even worse on the inside. I got to work and it was a day just like any other. Spent all day on my island.
It would be nice if my isolation at work had some purpose, like I am contagious or something. But it really does not have a purpose other than most of the things I work on, do not Leland Labuguenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12335230300934273986noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4818554406321852017.post-22993268354151949042013-04-21T21:53:00.000-04:002013-04-22T22:26:01.930-04:00The Judgmental MicroscopeMy anxiety has pretty much taken over my life at this point. I should be able to go out and enjoy myself or even go to work and have a good day, but it is just not happening.
I don't want to leave the house, I don't want to go anywhere.

They only have 2 MDs in the office, and only one takes my insurance. So you have to meet with a counselor first, and I guess determine if there is a real need for medication, then you meet with an MD, so you get this combination of drugs and therapy.
Which, OK ... That is nice.

I don't care that I am not wanted because we aren't married. I don't care that the FRG President does not like me and refuses to include me. I don't care. I am going to insert myself into the damn FRG and these people are just going to have to deal with me.

I probably should not let other people get to me, but I do. I wish people would just step back and realize that whatever they have worked out as a plan for their life and their marriage, is not necessarily the plan that will work best for everyone.

The sailor left in early January, but Luckily I have been able to keep in regular contact with him.
I talk to him about once a week on the phone, but normally I get an email from him at least once a day.
Unfortunately, I feel like I am talking to a brick wall most of the time.

The deployment continues.
Today is Day 19 that he has been gone of probably at least 220 more to go.
I say at least because although they have given the sailors on the ship a false sense of security with an anticipated return date, I know the Navy will probably delay the return.
Too much is going on in the world for the US not to need this ship to be extended.

The sailor left yesterday for at least 8 months.
Last night I went out to dinner and drinks with 2 friends whose husbands are also in the Navy. We had a great time, just drank way too much. But it was day one for me, so we sort of sent him off with a bang.
