Delema again

I havent been here for awhile again. its not that I am so busy, its that I am so tired. i dont know whats causing all this tiredness, but it is keeping me from doing much more than read emails and log off. I will at least try and post here once a week so my friends dont forget me.

anyway, i have a delema and i dont know what to do. we were invited by johns cousin who we havent seen in years, and years to here daughters wedding. it is a black tie event, which means we will have to go purchase new clothes, possible a new suit for john and definatly something for me. I wouldnt know these people if i passed them on the street. It is only the reception, but it is out of town and we would also have to rent a room, which they have arranged to have discounted room rates for the guests. we also have to buy the gift.

On the same day, my sister is having a party at her home just the next town over. all my family will be there, who i know, love, and havent seen for two years. we both would know any of them if we saw them on the street. I really dont want to go to johns family function for someone i dont know. I didnt mind though until i was told my sister was having a party on the same day. I just wonder how bad john really wants to go to that function. I suppose i should ask john and we could discuss it from there.

we are going to my sister n laws moms 80th birthday today. I do want to go to that, even though its two hours away. I adore that woman and would do anything for her. It should be fun. I am even putting on a skirt for her. I think it looks nice, but i will have to bring a different pair of shoes for later on. I think i will take a bunch of pics, have them developed and put them in an album for her. I bet she would like that. I did it for my sister before my mom passed, and she really liked it.

I have a feeling Im forgetting something, but I have to get going.

  1. I would definitely skip the wedding of someone I didn't know. Unless of course John has his heart set on going. Then pack his bag and head to your sister's lol hahahaha. Seriously I don't know why people invite strangers to their own wedding, its like they want to reach a certain head count or something.

  2. About the tiredness I would go see a doctor and get your iron checked?

  3. Send a gift in response to the wedding invitation and you'll be off the hook. They invite strangers because they are looking for gifts - or because they don't have a lot of friends on their side and are trying to fill up that part of the aisle.

    As for the being very tired.....if you aren't already taking a good multivitamin - DO THAT. There is also a good chance that you aren't sleeping well when you do sleep. Do you snore at all? Some people that snore (even a little) have sleep apnea - they don't realize that they wake up a lot during the night - but since they don't get good rest, they are often exhausted during the day.

    I guess I should mention that I find once I get up and moving - I am less tired - so you might try taking walks and see if that gives you more energy.

    Carol is right - you should go see a doctor......and we wouldn't forget you no matter how little you posted - but I do like it when you post more.

  4. I'm with Em and Carol. In fact, I couldn't have said it better, so I won't even try.

    And don't worry about how often or infrequently you post. :-)

  5. I think i will try the multivitamin thing and make sure it has iron in it. if that works and I feel better, i will conclude there. if i still feel like sleeping continuously, i will have to see my doc. this just cant keep going. Im thinking it is the vitamin thing. well, im actually hoping it is.

  7. I think I would pass on the wedding. Sounds very expensive for someone you don't know very well. I am sure if you explain the conflict of having another family event John's cousin will understand. Sorry to hear you are feeling so tired. I agree that trying a multivitamin is a good place to start. If the multivitamin doesn't help with the fatigue, you might want to look into getting a good check up. Fatigue is such a difficult thing to deal with because it really does affect just about everything you do during the day. Hope the vitamins give you a quick fix and you start feeling better and sleeping better soon. Hope your week is getting off to a good start. :)
