So, baby on the way, new thoughts concerning my current job and potential other employment, current job stress, baby on the way, need to move, car problems, church stress, custody stress, started getting ill stress, money stress, coworker stress, stress stress, finally got the better of me. I ended up getting sick at a very inopportune time and ended up looking like a total flake. Couldn't be helped. I still get sick every time I eat. I saw a doctor, and they thought Gallbladder. I saw a surgeon who wasn't so sure, but wants to take it anyway. Decisions Decisions.
So I put off the surgery for now until I pay down our current medical stuff. Don't get me wrong, I don't like to feel ill. However, the abrupt diet change has been extremely beneficial for all of those in our family. Ironically, I feel that if I go ahead and have this surgery, which is almost an elective surgery at this point, then we wouldn't be able to afford the vast quantities of higher quality food we now eat. Plus, I have seen substantial improvement. It just sucks.
Don't get me wrong, by higher quality I simply mean, not crap. No more greasy, from the box, or from the can food. We aren't eating steak and lobster here. Just more veggies, juices, no more butter, salt, sugar foods. You get the idea.
Torn between two opposites I weigh them out publicly for your amusement.
Lower quality food + stress =
digestive issues = doctors / labs/ etc = $$
$$ + doctors = stress
$$ + doctors + stress = digestive issues (square one)
So get to the bottom of the issue:
doctors / labs/ etc = $$= Poor house + debt = lower quality food
Lower quality food = problems for everyone
But if I stay not 100%
No $ issues + better quality food - stress
may= less stomach issues
Less stomach issues may = less stress
+ nobody else has health issues for a while, especially the kids who developed bad eating habits thanks to my love for Italian and other fatty foods.
Unless I develop Gallbladder cancer, then I'm a dead man.
This is stupid, I need 5000 people to Paypal me a dollar so I can get this taken care of before the baby comes, or I find a better job, or I move, or all of the above.
Oh, did I mention we are trying to move, and we are having a baby, and I am looking at my current job situation = stress
Time for a vacation
= less money +job stress +kid stress & being bored on vacation = lower quality food.
So hungry
