So Much To Tell and Not Enough Time!

I just want to say THANK YOU to all my friends out there who were praying for me!!!! It truly means soooo much to me!!! And I really needed it!!!! I have good news, but not enough time to write about it till this weekend! I just didn't want to wait to say "THANK YOU" to everyone!!!!!
I have good news and a cool "story" to share (a total 100% God moment)!!!!

Tomorrow is trick-or-treat for us! I love Halloween, so this will be a nice ending to a very hard week!!!

Thanks again for all those prayers out there!!!! I felt them!!!!! I feel loved!!!!!

Love,
Cissa

Please pray!

I just had to blog and ask everyone to please pray for me! It's a long story, but I have had problems w/my eyes for a long time (at least ten years). I have been to MANY eye drs. and get little to no relief (I have constant mucous strings in my eyes). I am going to a new eye dr. tomorrow and I need prayer - LOTS OF IT!!!! These eye issues are starting to interfere w/the quality of my life and I don't like it! I am tired of my current eye dr. acting like all of my issues are in my head. I was starting to believe him. Today, tho, I realize, once again, that I am NOT CRAZY! I have eye issues and if this dr. isn't listening, then I am going to a new dr.!!!! These drs. aren't GOD and I am sick of some of them thinking they are! Yes, I am acting crazy NOW, but it is B/C I have no relief from this mucous in my eyes! It is maddening to try to ignore the feeling of something in your eye!!!!
Anyway, I am going to a new dr., so please pray for some answers for me - or, at the very least, some relief. I appreciate it sooooo, soooooo much!!!!!
One more bit of info. - I did get online and find an eye dr. in Boston, MA (I know, crazy, huh?). He is a Harvard graduade and written some articles that I found very interesting. Long story short, I emailed him and he already wrote back and would be willing to see me!!!!!!!! I am very hopeful after receiving his email. I would rather, tho, not have to travel all the way to MA. I would rather get some results from my appt. tomorrow!
Please pray that I will be led in the right direction! I need help. I wouldn't be crazy if my eyes didn't bother me every frickin' second. I have such little relief. I have a physical problem, but my current eye dr. is trying to fix it emotionally. THAT, my friend, is CRAZY and is making ME CRAZY!!!! I need it fixed "physically" not emotionally! My emotions are fine except for a chronic eye issue which would make ANYONE insane!

Okay, I will stop for now. I am rambling!
Thanks blogger friends!!!!

We went to Circle S Farms this past Saturday and had a GREAT time!!!! I love this time of year (not too hot, not too cold, JUST RIGHT)!!! :)) We have unusually warm weather here (it has been in the 80's)! Dare I say it, but........it was almost TOO hot on the farm!!! I wasn't able to get my pumpkin patch pics b/c the sun was just too bright! Oh Well! These will have to do (and I "did" get my pumpkin patch pics at Renicks last week, so why am I complaining, right?!). Every year we have a HUGE hay fight (Circle S has a big hay barn) and, needless to say, hay gets EVERYWHERE!!!! FYI: hay in your underwear doesn't feel so good! :) This year my sister, Heidi, brought her new boyfriend, Steve. Well, technically, he isn't "new," but he is "new" to us. I had only met him once before, but he is SUCH A NICE GUY!!! :) He got "initiated" into the family w/our big hay fight! Doesn't matter if you're "new," if you're in that barn, you are fair game!!! lol!!!! Tooooo fun!!!! :) Gracie girl got to come and that is always a treat when she is around! Did I mention I have the BEST parents in the world???!!! They come w/us to enjoy these special memories! They get down in the hay! They watch the little ones, so I can enjoy the big kids and get all my pictures! I hope they know how much we appreciate them!!! :)

Have a good week!

Love, Cissa :)

We got to go to Renicks this past Saturday and had a WONDERFUL time!!! After being sick all week, it was soooooo nice getting to be outside and enjoy the beautiful weather!!! I, of course, had to take my 1st batch of "pumpkin pics" to celebrate the season!!! And...........there will be more to come!!! :)) We are still fighting colds, but after last week, there are NO COMPLAINTS HERE!!! lol!!! :) I was starting to have a hard time "mentally" from being sick all week. It really messes up your routine and it wasn't going away and I got all off balance! It is SOOOOO MUCH BETTER this week and I am soooooo thankful for that! :)

I tend to have an "obsessive/compulsive" personality. I have lived w/it my whole life, but sometimes, w/a family and responsibilities, it gets the best of me. Sometimes I "fret" over seemingly "little" things! I am fine for weeks at a time and then, BAM, I am right back obsessing again. Why am I telling you this? ;) Well, I went to the dr. and they want to put me on medicine. Hmmmm! I have been on meds. before and I don't feel like they really do anything for me. I do "feel" better in some ways, but I still "obsess." I don't think there is a "pill" that can help me w/my particular problem. I have been on medicine for depression in the past (but am doing really good and am not depressed). What depresses me is the dr. "pushing" this new med. on me. Don't get me wrong. I think medicine is WONDERFUL and a BLESSING and I am soooooo happy we have it. I have used it myself a time or two in my life. But.................that being said...............I just don't think there is a pill that can help my obsessiveness. I would love to know, if any of you know, anyone that sounds like me! If so, did they take medicine and what did they take and did it help??????!!!!! Oh, I must also mention, that I do take "Klonopin." I only take it as needed for anxiety. If I have had a rough day or am overly anxious, I take one. It REALLY, REALLY helps!!!!! I am glad I have it!!!!

One more thing before I go: I was mostly upset w/the dr. b/c I didn't feel like she listened to me!!! I wanted to try a more "natural" route (at first) just to see how I would do. You know, like diet and exercise and, maybe, vitamins. I don't feel obsessive or anxious ALL the time, just sometimes. It is a HUGE decision whether to start a new med. (which would be long-term and costly). I wish the dr. would have talked more in depth w/me. I'm not ruling meds. out, I just want to explore different choices.

Okay, THANK YOU fellow bloggers!!!!! I appreciate your thoughts, prayers and concerns!!!!

Have a good week!!!!

Love,

Cissa
