I’ve been a bad blogger.
The biggest obstacle for me when it comes to blogging is time. I rarely have any uninterrupted time and trying to blog through constant interruptions frustrates me to pieces. So I just don’t even try.
It’s that reason that makes Fet appeal to me as much as it does. It’s not that Fetlife is so omg! awesome stuff!, because, really, it tends to be repetitive and drama-ridden most of the time. But that I can go there for 5 minutes, post a sentence or two, and then zip off back to kids and chores and Master fulfills my need for interaction, as well as my interest in talking about all things kink-related.
Trying to blog in 5 minute spurts would turn this into something too much like Twitter.
I keep telling myself things like, well, as soon as such-n-such happens, things will calm down and be routine and I’ll find my time again. But even when such-n-such happens, something new replaces the such-n-such.
Clear as mud, no?
I don’t even know when I lost time. When we moved here? When Jes got pregnant? When Master and I went through that god-awful period of thinking we were going to split? When Master started volunteering me as the work-crew lunch bucket? When the baby came? When kids started bombarding me with appointment after appointment?
All of the above?
I can’t find my routine. Can’t figure out where the day goes, or why, at the end of it, I’m exhausted yet don’t feel like I’ve accomplished much more than the minimum.
Anyway. It is what it is, right?
Jes had her wisdom teeth pulled Thursday. All four of them at the oral surgeon. Couldn’t possibly be one of those easy dental extractions because we don’t operate under that kind of luck. She’s currently doped up and hurting so I’ve picked up a lot of Babygirl’s care. I know I don’t have to, I could be a hardass and let Jes suffer through it- but what is the point in acknowledging that, at 17, she needs help and then not being there when she needs it.
She’s still dealing with issues leftover from childbirth. In fact, next week we have to take her to a specialist (some 9 hours away from us, ffs). I’ll know more after this appointment, but surgery looks to be a likely outcome.
What a clusterfuck. The whole thing just makes me livid. Some pompus doctor rushing through a simple and routine procedure probably because he was late for Saturday morning golf, and my kid faces reconstructive surgery. Just… angry.
B-man has had some health issues lately, too. We’ve settled on trying an albuterol inhaler for the symptoms. Am gets her braces off next month. She’s understandably stoked. She and B-man both have appointments with a dermatologist in the next couple of months. I expect B-man to be put on Accutane, but I’m not sure Am will be. Her acne isn’t as severe as B-man’s. I dunno- acne for teenagers is awful. And kids are so mean about things like that, too.
Master’s had some stress at work. He was up for his review, there were rumors of eliminating positions, he was sweating it. But his review was great (cuz he’s great. *beams*), and the positions that were eliminated weren’t his. Whew.
And that’s that. I’m interrupted and can’t finish. *sigh*
Remind me to tell you about the drag queen show we went to when I come back.

Good luck wishes for Jes! Now is definitely the time to seek legal help not just medical.
As for acne, tetracycline worked for me. Mine wasn’t particularly severe but one 3 month course seemedto do the trick for years. It messes with birth control, though, so keep that in mind.
They’ve both been on minocycline for awhile now. It’s working better for Am than for B-man, though still not well enough that I’m satisfied with it as a treatment. Thanks.
Kaya,
I hear you on time disappearing. It must be some temporal black hole thing, because I’m losing time as well, and I don’t have all you do trying to steal my time. It has to be that, because otherwise I’m just a lazy bum, and we know it couldn’t be that.
It sucks, what Jes is having to go through. One can hope that a certain doctor has to be treated by someone who’s having a bad day in the near future.
By the way, I get to gom to a play party tonight. Woo hoo!

Ahh..the teeth, the acne, the time!!
I SO remember how nasty the teeth out was.. for me and my DS–DD has never had hers out.. she thinks she knows better~!
Hang in there.. there will be time.. one of these days~!
I so feel your pain, it gets so hard to write sometimes… but I also admit my depression spurts also play part. However at times the more depressed I am the more I need those spankins and such
Maybe you’ve already tried it but I’ve heard really good things about Proactive. My niece had awful acne as a side effect of medications and that did the trick.
Oh gawd I get that with the time thing, spring has hit here so people are starting to get into the whole summer mode and lots to be done and going on. *hugs* it’ll pass x
yanno. ’slong as you keep posting these quickies (hee), we’ll be here when… well, when Babygirl is four and Jes moves out and everyone else is at College, or whatever. Then you’ll go back to writing gigantic entries about how boring your life suddenly is and then you’ll be forced to post lots of pics of The Sasquatch and everything will be back to buisness, no?
We wubs you. <3
I may sound like a telefommerical, but Proactiv is good stuff. I’ve recently been using a cheaper alternative, Benzac, which has the same benzoly peroxide in it and it’s working really well too.
But if I could just peel off my damn skin and get a whole new covering, I’d be a happy girl…

This might be a bit naive, but… can’t you tell your children to stop interrupting you? Not talking about important things like babysitting and health care issues, but on a regular day to day basis? They are all big enough to take care of themselves.
ya just cant win!
tie up the kids and oh my never mind.
Sorry i did not mean a word of it..SRLY
Wow, Accutane? Are they handing that out like candy now for acne? I remember when I had to endure that stuff for TWO separate 6 month treatments and it was torture as a teen. Keep LOTS lip balm on hand and be prepared for an emotional journey. And be careful about the long run, I had odd medical symptoms in the years afterwards.
I know the chaos of how did I loose my routine? You’ll find it, and enjoy the ride of life, you have much to be proud of!
Ugh, Accutane! One of my siblings had horrible cystic acne and went through hell with it. I hope it’s easier for your lot.
I have no idea where the time goes, either. The only reason I got any blogging done today was to avoid doing something else.
