Trying hard

This blog has turned into a sad place for me it seems. I find myself only writing about how my day went bad! I need to find something happier to do! Maybe pick up a new hobby! There's got to be something out there that will make me a happy person again.

The day ended on a bad note! Prayers requests for your daycare lady...she has become a really good friend and today she contacted me to inform me that she can no longer watch my son. HEARTBROKEN....but totally understandable. She has found a lump in one of her breast...she is presently waiting a phone call from the doctor on when to plan surgery....I am speechless...I have no words! When I grieve or mourn any sad moment I tend to get comedic! I laughed at my moms funeral for crap sake....that how i get through things. Laughing... is that horrible or what?

To "A"....our family is thinking of you and wishing you the best in this next step the big man upstairs has given you. Stay strong....and for my sake....LAUGH!!!! Your smiling can't hurt a thing!!!


Now to you who know her...don't call her up or anything...she's got enough on her plate...Just pray for her!!! PLEASE!!!!! She has been through enough!

oh "A"...you are an inspiration!!! STAY STRONG!!!!

Another round

Well, as things have settled here since our last round of fun, we begin again.

I was reading the obits today to see that one of my great uncles dear friend, had followed in his ways and went to heaven this past weekend. I know that this seems obscene to be bummed about, however it feels sad to say goodbye. I know I wont beable to make the funeral or visitation however sad. Just seeing another person you know go "away" is hard on anyone.

Believe me I wont go into a deep depression about it, however brings back the memories of spending time with Ade and Charlie and their ROMEO group! It was always nice to see "OLD" guys smiling. I feel that runs up there right along with a baby's smile. I just don't know but old men just hit a string with me. They are all so great. Even the crabby ones, I encounter on a normal daily basis. Charlie was NOT a normal crabby guy, he was so sweet and happy all the time. The memories of him will always stay in my mind. How weird that I was thinking of him the other day and now to see him in the obits. Sad!

God Bless Charlie! Say hello to my mom and ade for me. Make sure Ade and his sister are getting along!!! Miss you Grandma Dodi!

On to some good stuff. Feeling better today than recently. I have been having horrible migraines lately and they don't seem to go away. Trying to take my meds again and see if that helps.

Off to help Thomas with another spelling exercise....2 tests down so far 100% each time!!!! Already read his book to me and did great!

why

Needing to ask why alot today. If anyone has the answer great!!
Just asking for prayers this time. Thank you.

needing to post

For the last few days I have felt the urge to post but haven't had time.
My lovely husband scared the begebees out of me last Sunday with a big 30th Bday surprise party. He did well, I had NO clue! Thank you for all you awesome friends, who on a Labor day weekend came ot my really hot house and celebrated with me. Part of the reason for my post. I love parties but I hate the feeling that I didn't get to chat with everyone....it is so hard for me. I was even having a little panic attack at the end before everyone left. Probably why people were leaving. Sorry everyone. I just get so NERVOUS!! I have always been this way.
It was a great time and I feel bad for the few of you I didn't get to chat with. Thank you also to the LOVELY friends who cleaned my basement after their kids played there.....I sent the boys down to clean to I could rest and get rid of my migraine, but they came back up screaming "its all clean mom. Lets go eat" THANK YOU!!!!

Anyways getting into our routine here with school, work and daycare. Few kinks to work out but that will come. You now me worrywort!!!

off to figure out what the dog got into now!
LOVELY!!

The best out of the worst!

Funny thing had on the way home yesterday. I couldn't stop laughing at the fact that I had the chance to rethink and revisit my thoughts for the last few years. Lately my conversation for the lack of better words stink!!!! I feel like all I can think of is that my life is crumbling before my very eyes. Couple things made me think this last weekend, as we laid Kirks Gr. E to rest, LIFE IS SHORT! and LIFE WILL THROW CHALLENGES AT YOU AND GOD WILL HELP YOU SURVIVE!

My first concern is Thomas. I want his life to be normal as much as possible. I am doing my best at seeking the best out of the worst. So the kid has problems pooping (for the last 2 years, if not more) but the best thing is he is healthy overall. Just this stubborn boy won't go poop in the tiolet, he goes in his pants. UGH!!!

Second concern: Missing mom more than ever....I need that girl advice! I NEED it!!! I would beg for that mother daughter time to chat about my problems and hers!!! It was recently brought to my attention " your mother was a SAINT compared to you" I feel horrible that that had to be said, however I am taking it as a compliment to my mother and looking at the good out a bad situation.

Third concern: My mind is slipping away with my summer!!!! Enough said!

Lesson learned: LIFE IS SHORT AND THINGS THROWN AT YOU TAKE THE BEST OUT OF THE WORST!!!!

Thank you Grandma Ev!!!!! Tell my mother hello and that she is a Saint for putting up with me!!! Oh I miss you both so very much. I need your humor now more than ever!

Nothing anymore

Well the latest forecast has come to officially 35.5 ft on Saturday! A whole foot and half lower than yesterday!

Reason alone to celebrate! Yipee!!!

Kids have been outside the last few days and going on walks and getting back in to normal spring/summer life. Kids are enjoying school and whats left of it. We haven't heard yet if St Joes will be making up that lost week of school. School Board decides and since my husband is on the school board I am hoping he is listening to me and my requests! Like that would happen! Thomas' school just got remodelled and it was completed so this week we have a new entrance and everything. New classrooms to use and it is so exciting! Everything looks so great!!! The final things in school are coming up like the school musical, kindgarten prayer service! FUN FUN FUN. I can't wait until Carter goes there next year! yeah baby!

Summer activites will be starting soon too, carter in golf, Anna in tennis, thomas in baseball and all the kidddos in swimming. We hope as a family this year to go somewhere this summer for a vacation. Any ideas? We will most likely land ourselves at Buffalo any chance we get!

Enjoying the spring weather and getting used to the idea of life being back to normal. Construction will start soon on the basement and life will be great!

Going to enjoy tax day today with a trip to Dairy Queen for their traditional shocolate sundae giveaway!!

Off to enjoy more spring like weather.
