New Year - New Challenges

Wow so we are already almost finished January and I promised my sister (well not biological - for those who know), that I would join her in blogging more often as a New Years resolution - so here I am - Nat do you even have a blog site ???
2011 was a terrible year for me. I suppose it started off terribly with xxx (we wont say it - I promised in the last blog entry), but then got from bad to worse, with financial constraints,  my 'areas of selling' being restricted in Fine and Country and to top it all the medical issues that Craig and I had to deal with in regard to his Neck Fusion and the the implications arising thereto....For these reasons - I was more than happy to start the new year on a fresh slate.....
Well how 'fresh' is FRESH - Second week in January and Craig is back in hospital. A week of tests and finally conclude that now we have to content with more issues relating to his drunken motorcar accident of 23 years ago.... a Trachea that is collapsing due to the previous tracheotomy. So my nerves are constantly on edge, I don't sleep properly and am exhausted. I cringe every time he coughs.. waiting for the spell to be over and that he can get his breathe back normally.
I was so looking forward to school starting this week so that I could buckle down and concentrate on my business, but that too has brought more challengers with the amount of time I spend driving, dropping off and then getting back to my new set up home office - the company I have moved to "Realnet' - Constantia Ridge, does not have the facilities available for me to 'park off' in the office for the day and do what I am used to doing and need to do. So motivation is a huge issue for me at the moment - last resort - put all the feelings in a blog and hope for the best..... (can't afford a shrink - not that they would be able to tell me any thing that I don't already know - but just cant get down to doing)
Well now that i have wasted more time - lets see if I can at least be productive for the next 30 minutes before I have to leave to go and fetch kids again... This mornings round trip took me 3 hours of driving... I really have to make a plan !!!
