Well . . . the lights are up, I have MOST of my presents bought, and we're getting the tree tomorrow night . . . everything is ALMOST right with the world.

Except for one little thing . . . my FREAKING EARS!!!!

I've had ear problems since I was little (glue-ear, got tubes 3 times) and to a certain extent they've continued to adulthood (I perforated my left ear drum when I was in college due to an infection that didn't quite heal the first time). ANYWAY, I know I have an equalibrium prob and had it checked out about 2 years ago . . . but never did the follow-up. Well yesterday it came back at me with a vengence.

Last night I started having dizzy spells. They came on so suddenly that I had to quit working last night and go home to deal with it. Everytime I bend over or lay down, it feels like the room is SPINNING big-time.

Thankfully because it happens during those time only . . . I know it's my ears. On top of that my left ear has been kind-of achey today.

If it's not SIGNIFICANTLY better by tomorrow I'm going to call my doctor . . . otherwise this had been a royal pain in the ASS!!!!

Everything else seems to be going well . . . the weekend was crazy busy with Kid #3 having a party on Sat. followed by Kid #1 going rock climbing w/Boy Scouts . . . then Sunday had Kid #2 and I at a Girl Scout function and then going to a pot-luck at church (which is 30 min. away) and I had to make a main course . . . it took everything I had just to breathe!

This week looks much more promising on the home front . . . now I'm just waiting to hear about what's going on with the MLB Winter Meetings to see if my GIANTS have a hope in hell of doing half way decent next year.

We'll see . . .
