Being the computer savvy person I am, it seems to me like I have a few interested readers that read my postings. Marty I know your one of them…only because your in Canada. I can tell where people are from who visit my profile…..and your asking how, but I don’t give out trade secrets! 🙂 It’s odd because I do have quite a few readers but I don’t think any of you have ever messaged me or anything. Yeah well, i’m here, so message me… add me as a friend… whatever. I don’t come on to myspace for no reason ya know! Ok, if I used to hate you, or you used to hate me – it doesn’t matter now!!
Anyway I had another interesting evening. The dysfunctional family decided to go to Big Boy for dinner, which didn’t work out since I don’t consume food anymore. I ended up ordering dinner and leaving it as well…aside from a grecian roll – which also didn’t really work out too well. Ok, so there is this nasty hillbilly woman that runs the place, I walk in and get a table for 5 plus 3 children. I go sit down and i’m like… where the hell is grandma?? So I go out to find them and it turns out she had a slight fall in the foyer of Big Boy – so she caused a bit of comotion even though she didn’t get hurt. Then of course the seating wasn’t good enough so instead of two tables, my brother decides to get up and sit at the table behind me with Rachel. Then Chris didn’t want to sit with us so he joined Paul and Andrew joined my mom and grandma. All the kids were bouncing around and throwing food. So I think I ended up leaving a hefty tip when we were done, even though my food sucked butt. I hate Big Boy. I’ll take Denny’s any day, even though there’s not one thing on their menu I can physically eat.. but at least I can smell it and imagine what it tastes like.
As I said in my earlier post my labs all came back normal from the docs. Good cholesterol, good sugar (I used to be a diabetic), and good everything. I now weigh what I used to weigh in like the 9th grade, which feels great. Of course there is a bit to go still. I work out too much, and I have lots of minor sports injuries. I haven’t worked out this week partly because I am sick and i’m letting my joints/muscles heal. I’ve been working on my leg presses and i’m up to over 350lbs… needless to say my legs are the strongest part of me. Although I can still win a good arm wrestling match
I’m strong witted and tough emotionally but give me a sore throat and i’ll cry like a baby. Agony. I feel horrible. Tylenol Flu here I come…
I’m doing really well this month in my sweeping. Yesterday I won a $400 digital camera from Kodak, and earlier this week I won a $20 gift card to Domino’s and a T-Shirt from New Balance. I got my $125 spa gift certificate from American Greetings in the mail yesterday that I won and i’ll treat Julie and myself to some sort of spa treatment! I can’t wait for that. My total for five months of sweeping is $1,600.00!
How odd is it not to know what kind of mood you are in? Well i’m in that predicament at the moment. I think I am though. I’m sitting here flipping out over everything and trying to ignore everything around me. Yet, i’m happy in a way. It’s weird.
Part of my problem is this stupid illness that I have. I’m sick one day, fine another, sick the next, fine the following day. Today is a sick day. I feel nauseated, and lightheaded. I went to the docs yesterday and all my labs came back perfect. I kinda figured I had an ear infection, but she said it was pretty bad. I’m so used to them now it seems that i’ve learned to tolerate not hearing anymore or a bit of pain. I’m also dealing with the tonsils again as usual and she said I should have my tonsils out. When I go to the EN&T doctor next month I will make that choice. Do I want to go under the knife? Not sure.. i’m still recovering from the horrifying wisdom tooth extraction that I had to deal with 3 years ago… or so. Not to sure if I was bloggin then, I should check. It’s an interesting story. One I will never recover from. General surgery i’m ok with, however, you touch my mouth and we have a whole nother can or worms to open up.
So i’m sick as usual today. Not my idea of a good Friday. Julie wanted me to go up to see the baby with her tomorrow but I think i’m going to have to pass. She might be mad, but i’d rather her child not get sick.
I have struggled and struggled to keep my livingroom spotless with 2 children under 4 years old. I’m so stressed out because of it cuz i’ll be sitting here on my laptop, while they go nuts in the livingroom throwing things and making a mess. I clean up like 5 times per day, and sometimes vacuum just as much. It’s just utter chaos around here. I finally got sick of it yesterday because Matt was letting them mess up so I left and went to the store.
I’m sitting here now flipping out because Chris is bouncing off the walls, and climbing on Matt’s shoulders and he doesn’t even say anything. Andrew is crying because he can’t have M&M’s that I have hidden on top of our entertainment center. Sometimes i’d die for some peace. I would really love to go a whole day without raising my voice. AHHHHHHHHHHH!
My mom wants to go to the zoo on Sunday, hopefully I feel good. It would suck to go to the zoo and not feel good. She wants to take Rachel because she thinks Rachel will never get another opportunity to go. The poor baby is destined to be a high school dropout. Not one of her family members on her mom’s side have graduated from high school… only her father Paul (brother).
My husband is sitting here handcuffed to the chair because Chris is pretending to be a cop, and Matt is complaining that it’s hurting and for him to free him. In a way its funny, but aggrevating at the same time!!
The dog stinks.
Can I find anything else to complain about? How about Andrew won’t stop trying to steal my laptop at the moment… or the dog has a good pair of my socks in his mouth that he won’t give up for anything… and all the while Chris is trying to handcuff my husband and the dog together.
