School's About To Start!!!!

School will start in 1 week!  I really hate for summer to be over.  I have enjoyed having an easy schedule and having time to relax!  Mainly I don't like being on a schedule!!!  I know kids need a schedule but I don't!  I don't like the regimentation school brings. 
Also my 16 year old's band stuff starts up.  That means early morning practice, football games, and band competitions.  That means having to rush and get to places when I am the most tired.  Climbing the stairs at the football stadium isn't much fun either.  Because Ankylosing Spondylitis is an invisible disease, people stare at me when I have to stop and rest half way.  In some ways I wish I had Lupus, at least my joints would swell, get red, & hot!  But with AS people just stare at you like "What the hell are you stopping for?!" and "Why do you have to have your husband help you up the stairs?" "What's wrong with you?"  To that I would like to answer "Plenty!!!" or "Would you like a list?"
On a good note my immunity disorder is getting better!  I'm not getting upper respiratory infections as often anymore!  That is a relief!
My father had his pet scan recently and he is CANCER FREE!!!  He called me, I couldn't believe it when I heard his voice, as soon as he got back from the doctor.
I'm getting tired, plus I have a migraine, so I'm going to bed.  Later!
