doctor again

Welcome back to the ladies that spent the weekend on the houseboat. It sounds like you guys had a good time.
I finially called my doctor and made the appt. to get my sugar checked on Thursday. I have been trying to stick my head in the sand and ignore this, but I am not being successful giving up sugar that way. Maybe if I get this done, it will scare me into it. Sometimes I wish I would have never quit smoking. It sucks. I think I am finally getting over the fact that I don't smoke anymore and now I have to give up my sugar? That's just not right. I wish I was 20 again. Well, maybe not 20, I was pregnant then. I probably still wasn't as fat as I am now though. I am feeling sorry for myself today, can anyone tell? Well, I don't do it very often, so I guess it's ok.
I can't believe we are going to be back at work in such a little amount of time. I don't have everything done that I wanted to do yet! I almost do, but not quite. I don't understand how it goes so quickly. Speaking of going back to work, the aides were supposed to meet with Sandy on the 17th. Then we got that staff update that says we all meet at the high school for breakfast and service awards ( don't want to go up and get that dumb pin). So, I e mailed Sandy and asked her which was the plan? She said things have changed, we have to go the the high school on the 17th and probably meet with her on th 20th. Does she not understand the 20th is the day we help our teachers with stuff?? I guess it doesn't matter. So, we may not be hanging out with you guys on the 20th, don't know.
Can't think of anything else to say, meeting my mom and sissy for lunch tomorrow, it sure is hot out!!
Later dudes

Wednesday lunch

For anyone who's reading this, I might be late to our lunch on Wednesday. I know it's hard to believe, but Brandon has an unexpected appt. at 10:30 that I need to help him out with. ( I am planning on having extra jewels in my crown when I get to Heaven ). Anyway, I'm not sure how long it will take and don't know if I can get there by 11:30 going to Milford and all. If someone would give me their cell #, I can call and give an update on Wednesday, it doesn't matter who. Will Angie be making it? Ok, that's all, it's easier to communicate this way because my e mails don't always go through.

Dave




These are a couple of pictures of Whitney's boyfriend Dave before his accident. ( I didn't get these from my camera, cause I can't do that, they were on a websight for a benefit they had for him) Anyhoo, he looks more like the picture on the right with the hat on, he is thinner though. His dad took them put put golfing last night, they had fun.

Not much going on, me and Brandon went to Target this morning, that's always a good time. I do love Target. I guess I should clean my house real good, I cleaned the bathrooms yesterday, but I need to dust.

Later

The fair and other news

Well we went to the fair yesterday and a good time was had by all. Whitney's new boyfriend Dave ( he is the one that was attacked in Clifton ) and his mom met us there. He is so cute. Of course he is 6'2". I swear she is never going to find a short fella. That's ok, I just can't get over how cute and sweet he is. His story is so sad though, he had a band and was in the wrong place and a gang attacked him. He had 4 broken ribs, both lungs were punctured and a brain injury. He was in a coma for 79 days. Breaks my heart. It really hits me too because Brandon is the same age as him and this kind of thing could happen to anybody. I took a picture of him and Whitney, I will post it as soon as I learn how.
I got stupid news at the gynocologist this past week. She wants me to stop eating sugar. WHAT???? I told her I didn't think she realized what a sugar addict I was, I mean crap, it's my only vice. She told me I could eat it twice a week. It is her thinking that the reason I am getting recurring yeast infections is an overload of sugar. I tend to agree with her since I never got them before ( unless I was taking an antibiotic) I stopped smoking, started eating lots of sugar and gained weight. Which brings us to the fact that she want me to lose weight. Dang. She said it's not that it's that bad, but it will keep getting worse. She said in 2001 I weighed 120. Dang. Then she didn't like something on my left breast. She said she wasn't worried though, but I have to go get my mammogram and then she wants to see me again after I have 2 more periods. In September I guess. Wish I would never had went to see the gynocologist. I used to like her.
Daryl finally got his new tattoo. His last appt. was cancelled because Roy was in the hospital with kidney stones - ouch. So he got it Thursday night and it looks very cool, I like it a lot. I will post a picture
of it too when I figure it out. I guess I will be done for now, gotta go to the basement and finish laundry. Are we all still meeting for lunch Wednesday?

Big Brother

Just wanted to share my thoughts and say I loved it when Dick told Jen he hated her and I loved it when he told Kail what he thought of her too cause I don't like them either. I also think it's pretty sweet that he is head of household and I hope he puts both of the bitties up for nominations this week.

One month from today

I just noticed the date and realized that one month from today I will be sitting in Sandy Bateman's inservice. Waa.
Ok, so while I was garage saleing on Saturday I came across a really big dog bed from Kirklands and I thought it would be good for Pierre. So, I brought it home, took the cover off and washed it, sewed it where it had a rip and sprayed febreeze on the inside. Well, it was too big for Pierre, he would fall off just trying to get on the darn thing, you know with the back legs that don't work so good anymore. So, I took it out to the breezeway and gave it to the cats. Baby thinks she is in Heaven. I think she only gets off of it to eat and use the litter box. She rolls around on it and sinks down in it like she is so happy and grateful. I am trying to convince her that there is room on there for her and Mama too, but it's not working. Mama has always been one to sacrifice for Baby anyway, and I guess this is no exception. Oh well, there are plenty of soft things for them to lay on, including couches upstairs. In the meantime, Baby looks like the princess and the pea.
Whitney has a new boyfriend. Joey broke up with her about 2 or 3 weeks ago to go back out with his old girlfriend. Whitney was broken hearted for about 10 minutes. That's about how long it took for guys to start calling her. Let's see, George was leaving messages on my answering machine that he loved her, Chris was asking her out ( he must have forgot he already has a girlfriend), Roy was calling all the time ( they actually have stayed friends and talk often though), Ricky was calling non-stop, which brings us to Dave. Ah, Dave. He is fairly new and Whitney was talking about him a lot. Then I heard about him from Miss Baffi (aka Mrs. Cowan now) because one of her best friends works at PSU and Emily was at the dance they recently had. Anyway, Dave was a completely normal guy who had a band, and was a happy go lucky stoner kind of guy. Then he got jumped in Clifton and hurt badly enough to leave him disabled. That is the kind of story that makes me so sad. I mean, I never feel sorry for them when they are born that way because they know no different life, but when this kind of thing happens, it's sad. Anyway, he is 22 and they are pretty smitten with each other. He sounds like a sweetheart on the phone and I hear he is very cute ( not just from Whitney because she thinks everyone is cute, but from Baffi too). He always tells Whitney she is cute and hot. Ha, ha. We'll see what happens there, I think they are planning a date. I will meet him on Friday because I am picking Whitney up early so we can go to the fair, The fair!!! I am excited. Daryl, myself, Brandon and Dylan and Whitney are all going. Dylan has been to the ocean, across the county to Oregon, on planes several times, the zoo, the aquarium, coney island, kings island, and every new kids movie that comes out, but never the fair. I'll make sure I take my camera and when Mrs. Orfield helps me, I will post some pictures.
How much does it suck that Jen was head of household on Big Brother?
If I have to watch Katie flip that hair of hers on ATWT one more time ( and I'm sure I will, because she does it constantly) I am going to scream! I know I sound like a Katie basher these days, but I just don't like her with Jack, that's stupid. I think I would like her if she were with Brad. That and she quit flipping her hair.
Ok , I think I've went on long enough, you guys have fun at lunch today, I will miss you all

No Mexican lunch out for me

Hey, first of all, I am really excited that I was able to put a title on this blog. Second though, it looks like I won't get to join you guys for lunch on Tuesday. I am completely bummed, I was really looking forward to it. It seems I had my days wrong, I thought my gynocologist appt. was on Thursday, but it's really on Tuesday and it's at 11:45. I have a different appointment on Thursday. Maybe if you guys can, we can get together the week before we go back to school. Diane has been wanting to go to Toot's, so maybe we can do that. I haven't been there in a while, sounds good. You guys can let me know. Have fun at your lunch though, while I am being violated. Ha, ha

Don't know if this will show up. Just wanted to let everyone know that I updated my blog and it's not showing up. It still won't let me put a title in either. You have to go to my blog and click on the search blog button and then it takes you to the one from today. Dumb blog. Let's see if this one shows up. I can do lunch next Tuesday or Wednesday, does that work for anyone else?
I am Bored. I really don't have anything to say, just that I'm bored. I seriously think I'm going to get a job next summer. I have a feeling things will get busier next week though, I am going to be helping Brandon out with stuff.
In case anyone cares, my neck feels tons better and the swelling is down since I stopped going to Curves. There is still some swelling, but not nearly as much. Course, I'm probably fatter, but whatever. It doesn't help that I'm scared to walk by myself since I got a notice in the mail last week about a sexual predator that moved in on Mulberry St.( once of my usual streets). He had abduction and kidnapping on his list of sexual crimes too. Now I have to walk with Daryl and he already walks about 8 miles a day, he will disappear if he gets anymore excersice. Anyone got a big dog I can borrow??
In other news, we went to Biggs to the grocery last week and we will be returning to Kroger. It doesn't matter how mad I get at Kroger, they will still always be my favortie grocery store. Daryl is in agreement with me.
Daryl will be getting his new tattoo tomorrow, can't wait to see it! I will take a picture of it to show you guys, but I won't be able to figure out how to get it on my computer, so you probably won't get to see it.
So, someone decide on lunch and let me know. I can go Tuesday or Wednesday next week. I can't wait!
Still can't put a title on my blog for some reason.

Saturday, July 7, 2007

I thought it was probably time for me to update, it's been almost a week and maybe my friends will come home from their vacations and need something new to read.
We had our garage sale yesterday. It was super hot and a lot of work. We got a lot of people, it is just too much work. I think we will be taking next year off from it, we have done it for 5 years in a row and I just need a rest from it. We just have an enormous amount of stuff, it's ridiculous, I mean it's just me and mom and Diane and you would think it's about 200 people's stuff from the looks of it. Now we just have to get the leftovers to Salvation Army, maybe tomorrow.
Daryl went to pick up our rock, can't wait to see it. His brother went with him to help him with the lifting.
Mama went to the vet today and she gets to keep her eye! That was very happy news. She has a scar and her sight isn't 100% in that eye, but it's pretty good. The blood clot was completely gone and her pressures were normal again.
I have to take papers to Doug Hardy on Monday about Whitney so he can send them to our new dental insurance to prove that she has a handicap, so they will put her on it. They don't even have her on it now. She gets medicaid because of the social security, but there aren't hardly any dentists on it, and that's not good.
ATWT is a hoot with Cleo being all crazy, loving it! Big Brother looks like it will be interesting. Nothing like watching 2 gay guys fight all summer.
I guess that's it for now, everyone else get home and upsdate your blogs, I am B-O-R-E-D!!
P.S. I tried to put a title in this blog, but it wouldn't let me for some reason

Not much going on

Nothing to do today, just some laundry. I just rolled over Pierre's ear with the chair at the computer desk, pulled some of his hair out and he cried a little. I am a really bad mom, I feel awful. He acts like he is not going to hold it against me though.
Since yesterday Daryl has been hard at work making the doors for the breezeway so the cats can have their private solarium. His brother is coming to help him, hopefully it will get done today, it's a pretty big job.
I am thinking about having my garage sale this week, it's a big job and I'm not looking forward to it, but I have to get rid of this crap. My sister in Kentucky wants me to have it later so she can come, but this works out better for me and mom, and she still might get to come. We'll see.
I know this will be a shock to everyone, but I am going to try shopping at Bigg's this week instead of Kroger. Kroger has been bugging me lately and I've had to return two different things recently that were expired. Now, I don't know about anyone else, but I don't have time to look at the expiration date on every single thing I buy. I already do it on a lot of things. Then, I earned 3 $20 rewards for getting prescriptions filled there. I used 2 of them and when I went to use the 3rd one, it had disappeared from my plus card. They shuffled me back and forth from the front desk to the pharmacy and there was never a resolution. I was not very happy, so I will take my $200 to Biggs this week and see if that makes me happy,
Gotta go put some ribs in the crock pot!
