It was a busy long weekend with the kids out on Friday.

Yesterday, Chris went to a hockey game. I had to take Sam to cheer,
so while she was there, I took the yuounger girls to Chuck E Cheese.
Somehow, I thought this would be a great idea, forgetting that on a
Saturday night EVERYONE is there! It was insane. Nontheless...
The girls had a great time. Trin was running around putting money
into every machine should could reach and trying to get as many
tickets as she could. She thought feeding the tickets to the ticket
counting machine was more fun than the games! Boo wandered
around on her own with a girl she ran into that she knew from dance.
Thats the nice part about the security there. One of the few places
you can feel safe letting a kid be a kid.

Afterward, The Poultons and Heather and Todd met us and
we went to the Chinese restaraunt across the rd and had a
pop with them while they ate. Had a really ncie time, even
though I feel like I jeporadize the conversation and then get
self concious that I am talking too much. I really enjoy their
company. I think part of it is that it seems I am always
wired with the kids whenever I get a chance to hang out
with them.

Just after 9, we headed home. I stopped for a car wash on
the way. A $14 car wash! It actually did a really nice job
but I always seem to notice new surface scratches on the
car after I go to one of those places. The weird thing is,
they are "No touch" washes. This is the first one that has
really done a nice job though. If I had the strength, I would
do it by hand to be sure but I can't.

Today we went to a Halloween day they had at Science
World. We got out of the house much later than planned
as I ended up on the couch last night after getting kicked
in the face by a restless Trin who joined us in bed.
So we were there for about 4 hours in the end, but it was
crammed with tons of demos, experiements, special
features, and an omnimax of caves. We had a nice day
and grabbed ice cream on the way home.

Then began the normal weeknight hustle of homework
dishes, lunches, laundry and such.

I have been having relentless pain in my legs,arms and
collarbone area latelty. It feels as if I have been working
our hard and my muscles are burning, but I haven't.
My headache frequency and intensity have been getting
much worse and as i mentioned, I am tired and
unmotivated all the time. We have switched some of my
meds in hopes it will help, and I am supposed to talk to my
GP as there is some discussion that my symptoms are
similar to fibromyalgia. On the upside, I haven't had
any tailbone pain in days and I can't even feel the lump.
Unfortunatelty, I have had the tailbone issues on and
off for almost 3 years and this could just be one of the
off periods. Either way, I am getting very nervous
about feeling so crappy all the time.

The landlord of the new house has accepted our offer,
I will feel 100% once it is in writting, which will
hopefully be in the next day or two.

Well, no nap today so I am BOMBED!
