There has not been a ton of things going on around here for the past month. The boys have remained busy with work and school. They have also had soccer every week and some fun college group activities, including a BBQ, volleyball, and pool party. Cam finished college; he is just waiting for his diploma to come in the mail. He has been working on a resume.
Michael has been busy with work and also doing remodeling work on our house. He has almost finished all of the bathrooms and laundry room. He is also painting the ceilings in the kitchen and dining room, as well as the walls. He is replacing all of the trim in the bathrooms and laundry room, and he is also putting new flooring in there as well.
I have been really struggling with hormone issues. I have struggled a lot with imbalance issues and anxiety issues. I have also been really struggling with lack of motivation and some depression. It has been really difficult lately to keep up a cheerful disposition. I just have not been feeling that way at all. I hope that this cream works quickly. I really hope that one day soon I just wake up and feel like a new person. I have heard that lots of people have had results like that. I do hope that I see that for myself...I hope that it really has all just been my hormones and that once I get them balanced, I see amazing results. This has been a really long year for me.
