I am a SAHM of 9. I am 38 and remarried, My DH and I have a blended family. I gave birth to 5 and he has 6. Our two oldest do not live with us. My oldest is 16 and is living with his father. I have 1 boy and 4 girls and he has 5 boys and 1 girl..LOL The ages are pretty much the same. We also have custody of his kids.
I am a registered Cosmetologist, I love doing hair and next year when all the kids are in school (whoohoo) I hope to get at least a part time job doing hair. Wrapping perms is what I have problem doing so I just go slow. I have noticed that some times my hands will stiffen up making using the scissors feel weird.
I love to sew dresses for my girls. My youngest is 5 and she LOVES to wear a dress. She loves to be pretty. I love photography and bought a Rebel XTI a year ago, I am still learning how to use the dang thing. LOL
I have yet to be Diagnosed with Fibro yet but I feel I have been suffering for the past 14 yrs. Slowly the symptoms have gotten worse. I would complain my legs hurt after standing on them for awhile and my DH would just say..what ever or give me the "Ohh come on" It wasn't until my sister was telling me about Grape Seed Extract and how she feel wonderful using it, so I went and picked some up and then looked on the internet what it was supposed to do. One thing that is listed is Fibro, knowing she has a MIL with Fibro I clicked on it and was amazed how all the symptoms listed I am suffering from. I just saw my Dr last week and told him everything that is going on. I left feeling like he didn't believe me, He is a young Dr and did admit he didn't know much about Fibro. I live in a very small town so the Dr. Pickings are not that great.
