Pet Contest

Awhile back a friend entered her baby in a pet contest online. Well I thought I would try myself to enter one of my babies. So I entered Peanut this is the picture I entered. The contest runs all thru December, here is the link to the Pet Contest at Petendipity. Look for her picture.Please vote for my baby girl. You can vote everyday if you want too. I was shocked that we gotted picked cause the original contest she was suppose to be in was for January and due to the Hurricane it closed done shop for the time being. Again the contest if from December 1-31st.

Of course she is my baby, she is deaf and is so loving.

Monday, Monday,...no funday for me.

I start my physical therapy this afternoon. Then we are coming back home and relaxing. Yes relaxing. My Mind is shot. I will have to go 3 times a week til' my appt. On Thursday is my deposition for my car accident. I am so mad about this that I shouldn't have to be going thru this. The guy hit, the guy got the ticket, I got hurt, and they offer me a measley $500 for pain and suffering???? I think not, not everything I miss, not the hell I was put thru, waking up in pain everyday, the strain on my friends and so forth. It messed me up mentally. Here it is a year and half later and I still have pain in my back that will never go away. I still get headaches. Anyways, I have my papers that I have to go over and remember cause my memory is gone too. I know I am going to cry cause thinking about him hitting me still haunts me. I know it was a accident but it was also my first one. Hopefully my last. I don't want to think about these things.

Alot of stuff is happening to people online, I don't say names cause I respect them for that. But my prayers go out to all that are going thru sad times right now. Some people will hopefully be getting their prayers answered as well. I hope a certain person gets what she's been waiting for.

Sunday

Sunday is here along with all the bullshit that happens. I am irritated right now. Last night I get home and find that someone has been looking at PORN on my puter. I don't care how drunk you are or what have you. I don't care if your playing around. That is the one thing NOT allowed on MY puter. I had to do a System Recovery yesterday morning and I get back home last night and I find porn on my puter. It soooo fucking pissed me off. That right there drew the line for me. Someone is goingto hear a earfull.

Happy Turkery Day is over....well almost.

I had a wonderful dinner today with my family. Well almost my entire family, but with part of my family being a distance away it can be hard. But I know in my heart that they are with loved ones and I am thinking about them. It was amazing, the Turkey was done two hours before we planned for it. Oh well, it was good timing as I had a ton of side dishes to make. The Turkey was perfect, the ham was perfect, the mashed taters were kinda think but good, the green bean casserole was good, Stuffing was awesome as usual. The pies were good. Mom tried to stay to help clean in which I appreciate greatly but it is my house so next time...DON'T worry about it. You are my guest dork. After everyone left, Mike and I got all the dishes done, food put away. He went to bed cause he must of been tired. I really don't know what from though, he basically sat all day. Anyway, nuff said. I had to take a Darvocet cause I was really hurting for some reason. My Sciatic nerve just went beserk. I had tears. So I took it, sat down, played a couple of games on Pogo. The pain went away...woooo. My Son loves for me to tuck him in, so I went back and he was cleaning his room. I was amazed. He didn't make the mess but he knew he wanted it clean before bed. So I went in, sat down and helped him sort threw his toys as they were everywhere. Thank Logan and Kyle....little shits. We just got done about 10 minutes ago and its 11:45 as I am typing this. So he is passed out, I am close to passing out as I feel loopy. I am going to take a hot bath cause my throat is hurting. I had to take the table out to the garage cause someone was tired, well I inhale some cold air and it made my throat hurt. Now watch I will come down with a cold. Cause my ears have been bothering me for a couple of days. At least I can go to bed with a clean slate, dishes done, everything put away and my Son's room CLEAN. Enough said, Night all.

Oh by the way, if you stop and read my blog...why don't you leave a comment or something!!! Nothing like a stalker and reading my life without knowing who is reading it. I don't care who you are, just say HI.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!!

Hope your day is joyful and eventful/uneventful. And that everyone gets along, no food fights, no pulling of hair and everyone eats to their bellie's content. Don't overdo yourselves either. Know your limitations....lol.. I just want a Happy Thanksgiving here. I probably won't be around toooo much as I am cooking dinner here..

Here's what we're having:

1 20lb. Turkey
1 Ham
Mashed Potatoes
Stuffing
Green Bean Casserole
Scalloped Corn
Yams
Rolls
Two Different Pies
Jello
Cup Cakes for the Kids
Cranberries

Wel will be eating about 3:30....so bloggers beware. I may overdo MYSELF....lol.

The day before all hell breaks loose.

How can one be so lucky to babysit while trying to prepare for Thanksgiving dinner. Call me wonderwoman right now. I got the kids to watch Polar Express while I am chattin' here for a few then heading to the table to chop veggies. Yes Veggies. Yummy Veggies. I am going to prepare the green bean casserole tonight. I will wait on the toppings. I need to find out about peeling the taters and putting them in the fridge. I think I can do that....can't remember. I want everything ready for tomorrow. I am taking the turkey out later tonight before bed and gettin' her done. With seasoning and all, so all I would have to do is throw the bird in. Tomorrow morning, I am cleaning...yes cleaning again. Vacuuming. Big time. Also later on after the movie, the kids and I are making oh...um....can't say. Its a surprise. So there. I might eat them all up. LOL.

I've been hiding...

but not on purpose. So much is happening. When I say so much, that's a understatement. I don't know where to begin or end. I had the greatest thing happen to me but not under the greatest of circumstances. My Grandfather is or was not doing so well last night. He was rushed to the ER, his right side went numb and didn't feel right. They called 911 and got him to the hospital as fast as they could. I do not know the full happenings of what happened but by the time I got back to see him, he was talking fine and looked good. Bit goofy but good. I finally got to tell my Grandpa how much I loved him and missed him. And I said I was sorry for what has happened. But I saw my Grandma first and we hugged and hugged. For a good 5 minutes. It felt soooooo good to give her a hug. I missed her sooo much. I left the hospital feeling good until my Son mentioned that I entered a DO NOT ENTER zone, which was the helicopter pad....OOOPS. My Son mentioned to me, can't you read MOM? Little stinker.

On another note, I've been scrambling to get dinner prepared for Thanksgiving. I have so much to do. Yes I. Me, Myself and I. No one else. I, am cooking the Turkey. I am getting up early and throwing the bird in early, so I know it gets done before everyone arrives. I've got two casseroles to make, a big ole' pan of mashed taters. I still need to get two more aluminum pans, maybe I can talk my Mom into buying some. Ok I asked she is...cool. Alright, I still have cleaning to do tonight. Don't wanna have to worry about it tomorrow. My head hurts.

Freaky Friday.

Hey its Friday, I know I have updated that much but don't care anymore. I went in for my MRI yesterday. I don't know if I can ever handle another one. I started freaking out half way thru and come to realize it was a panic attack. Small places scare me. But how does Walmart factor in there? I hate that place with a freakin' passion. I hate stupid people who stop in the middle of the aisle. Or when your looking at something and someone stops right in front of you. I make it known, and make a comment, "WELL guess I will wait for everyone to do their shopping or I guess I wasn't looking at something even though I backed up for you too pass me. " Stupid asses. Definitely my biggest pet peeve. Anyhow don't know what is all going on this weekend. Gonna take some more pics today before the camera goes back home...gonna miss it. Well gotta run to the store...need some ass wipe..

Hey Werner how ya been???? Hope all is well with the two of ya!!!!

Not enough time.

To actually post anymore. I've been busy with alot of things going on. First and foremost, my right knee has been killing me. I fell when I was 6 months pregnant and now my Son is 8, you figure the math, well. Steps are my enemy. Long walking hurts now. Its been hurting more these last couple of weeks. And when I say hurt, I mean it hurts to bend my knee going up or down the stairs. Then walking up the stairs I hear snapping sounds. So I finally called a ortho doc to look at my knee. Tired of the pain. I want to be able to walk up and down stairs with no problems. Well when I fell, I tore a ligament which never got fixed cause I was pregnant. Lord knows if it can be fixed now. I am scared to death. Why? Cause I don't want to live like this. I've been doing research and my biggest fear is having water on the knee. I heard some bad things but I am hoping things are different by now. I know it has something to do with my ligament. I did major damage when I fell. My knee swelled up to the size of a football and I couldn't walk for 3 weeks. I still managed to go to work though. Now this was over 8 years ago. Did I make the mistake of not having it fixed? I am so torn up over this. No one knows my pain. I try to put it off so no one sees it but its gotten too far for me. I lose sleep over it, there are mornings I wake up and I can't walk. The top of my knee is swollen and has been for a long, long time. The right knee cap is smaller than the other one, that is something else that bothers me. I need my knees. I need to walk. I am going to kick myself if I should of been seen sooner. So if I don't post much on my blog, then you will know why. I go Monday morning at 10:30. And its a Ortho Surgeon I am seeing. So that's cool.

Wassssup?

How are you today? Good? That's nice, I am ok. I am sitting here trying to figure out what's for dinner. That I have to go buy a good pair of scissors. I am trying to finish this blanket that was popular awhile back, the fleece ones. Well My Mom bought the fabric and she brought it over for us to do. Yeah right. Not as easy as it looks. I will take pictures when I am done cause, I only got one side done. And we have to go to the store and figure something out for dinner. I hate nights like this. I want chicken noodle soup again but dunno yet. Maybe tomorrow night...yah that sounds good. MMMMM. Soup again. I need to fold the blanket up so the kittys don't mess it up. Its soooo cute. I love it...its pink and kitties...perfect.

Finished Hat..

Please tell me what you think?

I am making a hat per some little girls request and not its NOT Kelcee or Madison. I am wanting to make more warm hats but have to find the perfect colors for the perfect little girls...lol.

Wanna see what I got from my Mother who is Yarn crazy?

This is what My Mom gave me to play with...yah yah. She is one crazy yarn fool. Let me tell you.

Half day of school today because of conferences. Whoo hooo. NOT. That means no school tomorrow. UGH!!!! That means I have kids. UGH!!!!!! Just kidding, I don't mind having my niece Kelcee and my nephew Kyle. They are so good. I think I am going to finish up the kitchen now. Its a mess from dinner last night.

Is it Wednesday already?

Well alot to post about. Lets see here. Oh I went to my Son's conference yesterday cause ours takes an hour. Its to Evaluate his IEP, (Individual Education Plan) and on his use of the resource room. Mine son is getting A's, B's and C's. I am so proud of him. He's a hard worker and the only thing he doesn't do is participate in the classroom discussions. I did the same thing..lol. Well it looks like the goal now is to eliminate the resource room altogether. But here is the list of his strengths.

Brigance- Word recognition= 1st Grade ----> Now second Grade
Reading Vocabulary= 2nd Grade
Computation- 1st Grade
Word Problems- 2nd Grade
Oral Reading- Lower 1st Grade (I was the same way in school, so it wasnt a surprise.
SPelling- 2nd Grade
Sentence Writing- 3rd Grade

This was his results at the beginning of school, and then now.

But his spelling is up to 3rd Grade level and they said they are starting on 4th grade level because he is doing so well. Ok could of fooled me cause he don't do it at home. I am very proud of his hard work and has come a long way in his work. My pushing him and being there for him has helped. I dropped out of school to get him where he needs to be.

Well today is going to be busy for me. As I have a ton of laundry to do...yeah I fixed the washer...somewhat...I was told and asked about what I could do for a temporary fix. I bypassed the Safety Switch....popped the broken switch off. Tied the two wires together, taped them up and put it all back together again. Plugged it in and turned it on. VOILA' it works. Whooooooo hoooooo, clean clothes again. I am still going to order the part cause its a very nice and clean washer...oh wait, I bought it brand new...lol. I am going to the store to buy groceries this morning after he goes to school. Gonna find something that can cook in the crock pot again. LOL. Well, hope all is well with everyone..
