Jules~I just started reading Anita Blake. I'm gonna start reading the 2nd book today. Not sure who I like so far. I hear they get way too sexual later on. But sex doesnt really bother me. In the Sookie Stackhouse books..I totally love Eric!!!!
Sue~The next Sue Grafton book comes out in Dec!!!!! I'm soooooooo excited!!!! I love her books!!! And you should read Twilight. You will be sucked right in!!!
Well..I'm back in my funk. Which is why I havent been on that much. I'm just so burnt out on exercising. And so is Fonzo. His work has us both stressed out. Which is why he's always sleeping..and why I'm always having panic attacks. I cannot wait until he's done with the Navy!!!! We're talking about moving back to Arizona. So hopefully that will happen and he wont have to stay in the navy. I dont think we can handle this anymore.
just thought I would pop in to see how every one is doing...........
Brandon had his zoo trip today and he had a blast with grandma! He was roaring to go when he saw that grandma was here! they got rained on, so they ended up coming home early, but they all still had a blast!
I went through every thing that I set out to do today which was nice! I went through all the clothes that I brought up from the basement, ended up throwing out five or six empty boxes, one hamper that was old......a container that had their toys in it because it was cracked and therefore moisture got onto the toys.........I even had to throw some toys out because of that..
All in all, it was a very productive day, and I sent Tommy a text message telling him that today seemed like a great day to get drunk! He just left to go get dinner, and boy does bedtime for the kids sound great right now!!!!
Mindee--sounds like you are being all productive--I forgot how much stuff we are storing in Ry's old room for him...now that he has a place it's going there...
Francie--Teri just watched the Twilight movie and now she wants to go get the books...The later Anita Blake novels are more sex than story, I don't mind a little sex thrown in but keep the characters true and give me a story. Teri swiped all mine and has continued to buy them as the series continued. Sorry you are depressed. How much longer does Fonzo have in the Navy?
Suzy--I forget to take care of me too and believe me nobody else will....sometimes I feel like everyone expects me to be superwoman....I saw 209 for two days...
Sue--it's very stinky smelling at the bottom of the dumps....Have fun with the big baby and the new one!!
well..not much exciting..I have a chiro appt in the morning and then Ry is going to get the rest of his stuff from our house..then it's gonna be me hubby and Dominic the rest of Friday evening!
Hi everyone
Just popping in for a quick minute, I have to go and grab the kids from town. Cody's car broke down, and Cole went to Grandma's after school, so that I could get the carpets steam cleaned. Graduation is tomorrow night. The ceremony, banquet, and prom are tomorrow, then the big party is Saturday night. Every student has to have a parent chaperone for the party. I got stuck with the 2:30am - 5:00am shift riding the bus and taking the kids home. I have to take them to the door and have a parent sign a form stating they have been returned safely. Wouldn't you be happy to have someone ringing the doorbell at 5 in the morning to give you your drunk teenager?
Anyhow.... to you all. Sorry I don't have time for Indys. Hope you all have a great Friday.
every body is asleep, and I am ready to go there as well! I am watching the Wings game, but I just might go in the bedroom and watch it.......Tommy already has it on in there anyways.
I still want to go through our room, and our closet and then I will be happy with every thing. you never realize how much stuff you have until you need to go through it all!
I have to make two phone calls actually tomorrow. I have to call the local head start program to get an application sent to me for Logan. Even though we are having him tested, I still want to have an application so that if he doesn't need to be in a class like Brandon's I will have an option for him! I also need to call the place to see about getting Marissa tested as well.
Kathy - Your assignement for the graduation sounds like a killer. I don't want to even be awake at 2:30 am, let alone knocking on parents door's at 5am . haha.
Sounds like fun though, does Cody go to a private school?
Jules- How did the chiro appt go? Enjoy little Dominic! I see some of the most beautiful little new borns at work. Think I will turn into one of those baby snatchers. lol jk.......yikes, shouldn't joke about that. I would love to hold one though.
Good example of Taking Care of Yourself First by Me.
I decided to leave Gaby behind this weekend to spend w/ her father. I wanted to spende some quality time w/ the R's and it is close to impossible w/ Gaby there. The girls are all different and want to do different things and it leaves me exhausted. So, Saturday night is Rachel's time and Sunday morning is Rebecca's time. And I want to see my mom and visit my fathers grave, and get home around 4pm to see Gaby for a bit.Last night though the Ex called and said "will, you can't leave her behind, I want to see Gaby, it's not fair"...but I stood firm. He has never made the trip here and he never will help with watching G for me so I can do things w/ the R's. He likes his tv time and doesn't like to share w/ Gaby. Like 2 little kids. lol
anyway, whatever.....going to do what works best for me for a change.
I better go, not much time this morning before work , have to get my check cashed and pay a bill.
I have no energy to do anything today, so I haven't! I am going to attribute that to doing two much the past two days, and the lovely arrival of TOM this morning!
not sure what we are doing this weekend.....I know that we invited a friend of ours and his family over this weekend for a BBQ. we will see if that happens...although he does have to come pick up some things that we have here for him....so I will remind him then.
other than that, we are on the poor side, and so nothing special here. with Mother's Day on Sunday and then our anniversary on Monday, we don't get any breaks! (I am only kidding!)
I called and scheduled Marissa's appointment to get her tested. She goes on the 20th at 11am.......so we will have to work on seeing if my MIL can come over and sit with Brandon until he gets on the bus, and then she can leave. She would only have to be here for maybe an hour and a half at the most. And then Logan has his testing with the speech therapist at Brandon's school on the 22nd. Although, the more I think about it...I would feel better if she could wait here until we got back. That way if we should run long with Marissa's testing, that someone would be here to get Brandon off the bus.
I have come up with the idea of me and Tommy taking Marissa and Logan to her appointment. they want to run a hearing test on here, then a speech evaluation and then we are to meet with the family something or another. And I figured that it might be easier just to take the two of them in our van. And then for Logan's appointment, I will get Brandon on the bus to school, and then we will only need to take Marissa and Logan to that one.
well, we ended up going to the local flea market to enjoy their bike night! it was a lot of fun, even though it down poured while we were there. we went inside and walked around a little bit and then ran to walmart, then came home....and wouldn't you know it, it started to down pour on our way home from walmart!
Tommy has to work tomorrow from 7am to noon......then we will be hanging around the house. we are waiting to hear from our friend to see if they are coming over for the BBQ or if they want to do it on Sunday.......
Brandon made me a Mother's Day present at school. It is a laminated piece of paper that has his hand prints on it, and then there is a message above it. The message reads "Sometimes you get discouraged Because I am so small. And always leave my fingerprints On furniture and walls. But everyday I am growing, I'll be grown-up someday And all those tiny fingerprints Will surely fade away. So here's a final handprint Just so you can recall, Exactly how my fingers looked When I was very, very small. Brandon Mother's Day 2009" As soon as I saw the hand prints, my eyes started to get misty, and then when I read the poem that went with it, I had tears falling down my face.
Jules~Tell Teri that I said that, the Twilight book is way better than the movie!!! I hope that at least New Moon will be better than Twilight. Some of it was just so cheesy, lol. I do have a confession about the Anita Blake books..lol. My friend told me about the sex and stuff, and I started reading it for that purpose. LOL!! I'm a little perv, but whatever. She told me that it just gets really hot later on. So we'll see. And I'm not sure when Fonzo will be out of the Navy. I'm guessing next June.
OHH okay..I remember what I wanted to say now, lol. I just read in my mag, that DeAnna is now dating Jeremy!!!! WTF!! She has no clue what she wants. And I guess they were hanging out with Jesse's ex girlfriend..cuz Jesse was all..her & DeAnna have one thing in common, they both went out with me. LoL!! He's a little full of himself, lol.
Cristina -- I hope you get to read them, they are so much better than the movie and plus if you read them all, like I am, I'm almost done with the 4th and last book, you'll have a heads up on what happens. hee hee hee.
Francie -- Hmmmmm what she does to Jacob?? Wonder if I haven't gotten to that part yet or just forgot it?? lol. I'm almost done with it.
Susan -- I hope you feel better.
Jules -- I had a very weird dream about my coworker. It was kinda funny actually. But I'd still rather dream about Edward and the Cullens. I dunno what is up with her, now she talks to me, or she did last week. Kinda changes week to week, so we'll see what this week brings me.
Sue -- They didn't strike my interest at first either. Infact when I first watched the movie, I really wasn't crazy about it, but then with my coworker issues, I got into reading, it makes a very long night when your one and only coworker does not talk too you all night long. So that is how I got into them, to keep me occupied and I'm glad I did, cuz they are really good, or so I think. But I know its not for everyone.........
Hi to everybody out there in "Lurkland"
Good news, while finishing up my office, I found Angels & Demons by Dan Brown, so I can have that to read after I get done with this last Twilight book.
Well DH has been walking several miles at work and not just the total of what he walks all night long, him and his coworker have been walking He said they did 8 miles lastnight. Which I am very proud of, but now I feel like a huge giant slob. I need to get it in gear I guess. We still have the treadmill at my inlaws that my fil is giving us, which is a really nice one, but it is HUGE and it does not fold up. Guess I shouldn't complain if its free, right? But I need to get into gear...........Feel like a slug, just slugging along.............. Oh well just gotta get out there and do it.............
We went to Indiana unexpectedly on Thursday. My mil wanted a cement goose for Mothers Day, we called all over in our area, nobody had them. So I remembered a little place in Indiana, where I am from, where my parents got me some things and figured since it was more of a rural area, that they probably would have them. So I called up my mom and she looked up the number and DH called and she said that they had a lot of them and they were only $16 each! So we drove out there and got that and an angel statue for my mom. So we met up with my mother and man is she SKINNY! I mean my mom has always been thin, but dang! I told her she needed to put on some pounds!! lol. Too bad I don't get my body shape from her or my father. Oh no................I have to be the big fattie...............I mean my mom's family, besides her and her younger brother are all "bigger" people, but still, why couldn't have I gotten that gene that I could be thin no matter what??? I know, I know enough whining!!! HA!
But I am going to get her on May 20th after I come home from work that morning and get me some Zzzz's........I am also getting my hair highlighted at her hairdressers while I am out there. It is in bad need for it right now. I am thinking of not doing the blonde, it is so much maintenance for people with darker hair. But I have received SO many compliments on it..............Hard decision. lol.
Well I guess I should go now.......I'm sure if anybody has read through this whole thing they are starting to fall asleep now. lol.
Sassy~Did you finish Breaking Dawn yet?? Cuz if so, message me, and I'll let you know what I thought was so funny about Rose & Jake.
Nothing much is going on with me. Gonna go jump in the shower and get ready to go to the movies!!! We're gonna go see Star Trek. And just for the record..we're not Trekkies (or however you spell it). I've never watched the show a day in my life..although Fonzo has seen a few episodes and some of the movies. We're just going cuz this movie looks really really good, and because the dude from Heroes is in it. He's playing Spock.
Btw..I added a hiliarous blog to my myspace...check it out!!!!!!!!! (and comment)
Quick pop in. Just wanted to say things here are good. Mom and I are both doing well right now.
"Baby boy"...yes, he is my youngest at 29. But still my baby. LOL. He arrived safely and has been busy catching up with family and friends. Looks super as he has lost 25-30 pounds. Still a big boy, but much healthier.
We had family here yesterday, wore me out, but was fun.It was warm enough to sit outside, but not sunny or hot.
Mother's Day and DD's birthday party tomorrow. I am not cooking for that one though...DH is grilling and I already have lunch things ready.
Did laundry all day today...where does this stuff come from????
I am not doing another darn thing today and hopefully very little tomorrow. Just want to enjoy my family.
Happy Mother's Day to you all and hope you can enjoy your family too.
to you all. Sorry I don't have time for Indys. Hope you all have a great Friday.
to everyone!
