Per Emily's Request

Ok Em I'll update my blog dog. Um, nothing really too exciting is happening these days at the residence del Foxboro. We're both working very hard lately and I think it's catching up with me because my panic attacks are happening more frequently than I would like. I think now that I have more time on my hands after work I just don't know what to do so I sit and think and that's when they happen. I just need to keep myself occupied with Aubrey and Diesel so I'm not thinking about it. I hate having the attacks but I don't know why they come. When they do, it's like my whole body gets hot and my heart rate goes through the roof until I sit up and walk outside or something. Once I do that, I can usually tell myself to start breathing normally and begin to function again. It really sucks! I feel like I'm a slave to these episodes. So if any of you have any advise or if this is happening to you, let me know so I don't feel like such a dork. And please let me know what you think I should do :)


ANYWHOOOOO................

I can't stop watching the video down below ha ha! I love it when he hits the second baby with the metal object. But again, aside from up above, Aubrey and I are both doing great! Diesel has been gaining TONS of weight because we took him off the Healthy Start stuff and just put him on regular food. I wouldn't be surprised if he weighed 70 lbs! He's such a fatty and we love him so much. Aubrey usually goes to bed before me because I'm a night owl and can't go to bed at a normal time, so when I finally get tired and go upstairs, Diesel is laying just like I would; on his back and head on the pillow. It's hillarious! I feel bad moving him and every time I do he just growns like a little kid. Sooo funny! We were both doing the diet thing earlier this year and were doing really good until we both got sick. People, we were sick for 3 weeks straight. DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH TISSUE WE WENT THROUGH? 1 metric ton worth I'll bet. So we weren't really sticking to the diet because we felt sick and all we wanted was "bad" food. But we're trying to get back on track.


That's about all I can think about so I hope you enjoyed this!



ENJOY!!

Jonathan -

Sorry to hear about your panic attacks. I know we kind of talked about it when you were at my house, but I still wanted to mention it on the blog. After all, this post is named after me!

Many people have panic attacks, so don't feel like a dork when you have one. While I don't have an actual attack, I have noticed myself go wacky if I have too much time on my hands. Idle hands are dangerous! The mind is a powerful thing and if I don't keep myself busy I tend to "think" too much and analyze my life too much, etc.

My advice would be to recognize what you are doing when you have an attack and try to avoid those situations as much as possible. Try to keep yourself busy with hobbies, outings, etc. Now that the weather is getting warmer, it'll be easier to get out the house and do more things.

Anyway, like I know anything, so you don't have to take my advice, but I am your older sister so that makes me automatically wiser. Ha! Love you!!!
