So....Steve's grandmother has been very sick - long story short: They found cancer, removed cancer, did radiation. Cancer is gone now, but the radiation just totally FRIED her brain. Nice. So she's slipping further and further into Alzheimers. She's just loosing it. So everyday now since about Thanksgiving we go over to her house. We spend nearly all of our free time there. She enjoys it - and we do too, most of the time. It has been very difficult sometimes to go there - but you know, you do what you have to do. So anyway, now her 2 daughters have decided to move her. I knew this day was coming - but it seems so quick - this Wednesday when Paula leaves to go back to Dallas, she will take Mothers with her. When I found that out, I just sat down and cried. It's the best thing for grandmother - I'm just being a bit selfish. I will miss her. My kids will miss her. Anyway, she'll live in Dallas with Paula until Connie, up in Ohio, is all set up and ready and then will move there. I don't think she quite gets it all - she thinks she's going for a visit, and will come back. She's worried about the house, but we keep telling her that Steve and I will be here to take care of it. So anyway...just needed to vent a bit. OK that's it for now....

SO, tomorrow I've got my mom, my sister-in-law and my 2 nephews coming for a visit. I'm so excited. They will be here tomorrow night around dinner time. They can't stay long - I think they are leaving Saturday late afternoon or so...Oh well. At least we get to visit for awhile. That will be fun. My house is trashed though...ugh. Shelly (my sister-in-law) keeps a perfect house - it's always clean! She's always up doing something in it, cleaning, painting, their house is beautiful! Well, mine will never be like that! But, that's OK. baby steps...at least we can walk through the house. It's fairly decent. One of my favorite sayings... 'My kitchen floor used to be so clean you could eat a meal off of it - now you can find a whole meal on it.' I love that one! I found that one off of my brother and Shelly - went on vacation and a lady they met used that line! How great! So I've stolen it and made it my own! I love it. Of course - my kitchen floor has NEVER been clean enough to eat off of...Oh well, sounds good anyway...

It was just absolutely gorgeous here! Saturday and Sunday - just wonderful. Saturday, I worked out in the front yard, planting more flowers. Steve worked on his car all day on Saturday - washing and waxing it. Trying to cover up some of the scratches and dents. Alex got invited to a movie with a friend, so he went to go see Scooby Doo 2 and then went to the park after that. That was soo cool. First time he's been invited on something like that. He's getting to that age now - I love it. He wants to have a couple of friends over and have a slumber party - I think we will try to do that in a few weeks. Should be fun! So anyway, I planted geraniums (red) all across the front porch and then some cilantro and basil at the corner. I also bought some more basil, cilantro and mint and planted that out in the 'big' garden out front. Lauren wanted a pink flower so I bought some gerber daisies for her. Then I slept on the couch for about an hour....nice. Sunday, Steve went over and started on grandmother's pool early in the morning. I joined him soon and started working in the yard. I got the rose bed all weeded and started on the cactus garden. I hate working in the cactus garden - always get pricked! OUCH! So anyway, we worked out there for quite a bit, then I took the kids home. They were having an open house there and I didn't want the kids hanging out. Steve stayed and finished the pool. We ordered Outback for dinner - that was nice...mmmmm. I love Outback. We were so exhausted last night then, just went to bed and watched TV. We are sooo exciting! Anyway, got alot done this weekend and I feel good about it. I even got a bit of sun on my arms. Not so Casper looking now. Still very pale though...Oh well, what can you do? Hope everyone is having a good day! Talk to you later!

So Steve and I went running around at lunch. I went to the thrift store and he went to the sporting goods store right next to it. I found a really cute skirt and about 5 ties. A woman I work with is making purses out of old ties - so I want her to make me one, so I brought her a bunch of ties to do that! Steve bought himself some Roller Blades and we got Alex a batting helmet. Apparently Steve thinks he will start roller blading for exercise...sounds like a good plan - in theory! Oh well. We shall see. It is such a beautiful day! How gorgeous! I love it. So anyway, then we went to the mall where I got a Very Berry smoothie. Life is good again! I have a smile. Now back to work because I want to leave early today. So much to do, so little time! Hope everyone is happy too! C'ya.

So, I am having a very good day so far - then out of the blue, somehow I stumble onto a section of the book 'Jude the Obscure' online. Has anyone ever read this book? It is thouroughly depressing. Do Not EVER Read this book. So anyone, there I am - innocently surfing the web...and I run across this horrible section. Now, I already know what this chapter is about because I have read the book and back in college - when I was fixated on death - this was one of my favorite readings. I'm not even going to go into it here - because I don't want to bring anyone else down...if you really want to know what it is you can go urlLink here - But SERIOUSLY it is DEPRESSING!! So I really do not suggest it. Now I am trying my very best to pull myself out of this dark place that I have fallen into. Anyone have a happy site to visit? Please? Isn't that just the saddest thing? Happy thoughts, happy thoughts...hmm..kittens...no that doesn't work, brown paper packages tied up with string? That's a good one. Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens - no, not so much...happy thoughts... Well, you know what they say - 'It's a poor musician who blames his instrument.'

Anyone who really knows me, knows that I hate onions with a passion! I cannot stress enough - how much I dislike them. As I was growing up, my mom had to keep the onions, double bagged in a drawer in a dresser that was downstairs in the basement so that I didn't smell them. I cannot be around when someone is trying to cook with them. I mean the smell - UGH. I had a boyfriend once that did not understand how I really felt about onions - I warned him that they made me physically ill, he didn't believe me. So after eating a burger with big, thick slices of onion on it - he tried to kiss me - I threw up all over him. He understood after that. Now I know I am not urlLink alone.

So, I've not been having a good couple of days...I just cannot figure out how to shake this. We (my husband, and my kids and myself) are at the best point of our lives so far - everything is going so good! Yet I have this overall feeling of blah, sort of a depression, I'm not particularly sad - but I cry a lot. I feel tired, extremely tired and just cannot focus on all of the little things around me. I'm falling behind in work - never before...just don't get it. So I've been on Lexapro for about a month now, but I've also been taking sleeping pills with it. I'm thinking it's the sleeping pills that are hitting me hard now. I'm going to stop taking those for awhile and see if I don't improve. Keep your fingers crossed for me. Last night, I slept great without a sleeping pill and I feel so much better today. Yesterday, I was walking around like a zombie! So anyway...Maybe I am going crazy? Nah, I've been there already - that's not it. Oh well...Spring is here, and that always cheers me up. My flowers are starting to bloom in my yard - pretty tulips already! I love it. OK, that's a quick update - talk to you all later!

Well, we survived our 7 year old's birthday party at the skating rink! It turned out to be a very nice time. Alex had a blast and that's what is important. We had about 12 or 13 kids show up in total. That was a good turn out. Of course, Alex ignored the girls and they were all trying to get his attention. That was hilarious. He spent most of his time playing video games with the other boys. Good thing that I spent all of that money for the skating rink! haha. Next year I know - have his bday party at the video arcade, give each kid $20 bucks and I'll still be ahead! Anyway, it wasn't so bad yesterday. I may even do it again....We'll see. Another day survived. I came home and slept for about 2 hours after that - I was bushed. I even skated some while we were there, it's been a long time...but I didn't fall. My legs are sore today, I am soo out of shape. Oh well. Just wanted to let y'all know we had a good time.

He's holding his breath to find out what happens today with Alex's bday party. As am I! I couldn't sleep all @$%(*& night. I just tossed and turned. What if 47 kids show up? (So far 3 have called to say they cannot come) Worse yet - what if no one shows up? God How terrifying is this whole birthday party thing? I don't want to EVER do it again. Of course, I'm sure I will be doing it all over again for my little 3 year old girl...Will I forget the pain of it all by then? We'll see.

It's been very beautiful here lately. We've been working in the yard alot! So far this month I have planted 20 urlLink Hyacinth bulbs , 25 urlLink tulip bulbs , 75 urlLink daffodills and 20 urlLink gladiola bulbs . I can't wait til they come up! Yeah! So exciting. Then Alex starts baseball practice Thursday night at 5:00. That's going to be tough getting there by that time, we told the coach, we would make it as early as possible. He's going to be playing for the urlLink Phillies . He's getting excited about it. Not sure when the first game will be - not far off. Steve is starting an adult softball team here at work and they will play every Tuesday and Thursday night. (of course those are the nights that Alex will have ball practice). Nice how that works out isn't it. Saturday we are having a birthday party for Alex - he turns 7 on Sunday! I can't believe my baby is getting so big! We are having it at the urlLink Roller Skating Rink . I sent out 50 invitations!! OUCH! (The policy at the school and daycare is - if you pass out invites, it has to be to the whole class - so noone feels left out.) Keep your fingers crossed that that many don't show up! It's 6.95 a person. It would be fun to have that many people, but it would put me in the poor house! Oh well. That's all that's going on here right now. Got to run!

In order to give everyone time to prepare some appropriate April Fools joke for loved ones, coworkers, friends and family - here is a list put together of the urlLink top 100 April Fools jokes of all time. Please review this early so you're not left behind! I love this day - although I very rarely have pulled any pranks on any one. The best one that I have ever done was to use a 100 yd roll of saran wrap and completely wrap up my husbands car in it. We were dating at the time and working at Chi-Chi's in Canton, OH. So while he was working, I was out in the parking lot wrapping his car! Everyone knew about it except for him, so we were all in the windows watching when he went out! PRICELESS! That was a good one. Anyone out there have some good April Fools jokes that they have used? Let me know....email.

Things just don't seem to slow down. So Saturday morning, got up early - set Alex in front of the electronic babysitter, Thank God for Cartoons. Then Lauren and I did a Sam's Club run. Those are usually tiring enough for me, but to do it with her was even more so. I got home just in time to get Alex in his ball uniform and out to the park for baseball tryouts. We got there and it ended up taking about 2 1/2 hours. Lauren does not like to sit still for that long, and there was really nothing for her to do. Meanwhile Steve is home in bed sound asleep. So we get home after his 5 minute tryout - he was in the last group! AUGH. Lauren's throwing a kicking and screaming fit, because now all of a sudden, she doesn't want to leave, she wants to stay there. So I'm dragging, literrally draggin her, through the parking lot to the car. Just keep on smiling! Get them home (we live about 3 minutes from the park) and then I give her a couple of good spankings - stung my hand! Throw her in bed to try to get some sleep. Alex and I played 3 games of Disney Yahtzee. That wore me out, then I went out back and weeded the flower beds there, then back inside to the couch with Lauren - she never did take a nap yet. So we both lay down on the couch and cover all up and then I put on her cartoons and we were both out within 5 minutes. Very nice. Just laid around the rest of the day. Sunday we didn't do too much, I planted some gladiola bulbs in the front, did a Walmart run, prepared the menu for dinners all this week. Something new I'm trying - preparing a menu for dinners a week at a time, that way I know I will have the food, we won't waste any of it, I can prepare some of it ahead of time...It's a really good theory. I'll let you know how it turns out. Anyway, went to bed early Sunday night - but just tossed and turned all night. I took my happy pill and my sleeping pill, but was still up all night. Finally about 3:00 am, I popped a couple of xanax and that helped. Of course now this morning I feel hung over. Can't win. I think I will switch to taking my happy pill in the morning, and just the sleeping pill at night. Maybe it's my Lexapro that is keeping me up. We'll give it a try anyway.

So Steve went out tonight with a friend. They just went to Happy Hour, now here it is almost 3:00am. He called at about 2 and said he was at the friends house and was just going to spend the night. I said 'absolutely not' take a cab home if you can't drive. So now I'm up waiting on him cause I'm worried about him. I hate this feeling. I really don't mind if he goes out - he doesn't do it that often. When he said he was going, I just said 'I'd rather if you don't stay out all night', he said he was just going for Happy hour and then would be home. He gets so mad at me if I stay out late. I hate this. Anyway, just a quick vent. Nothing really to be mad at - I'm just worried...

Steve: One dr. told him it was a urlLink herniated disk , but we are still not sure. He is going to see a back specialist now and she is telling him it sounds more like muscle spasms. We are waiting on the results of the MRI to come back. Lauren: She had urlLink strep throat and both ears infected. We are started her on anti-biotic right away, she seems to be getting better, although the way she acted you could hardly tell she was sick in the first place. Mom: She was experiencing some chest pains, and heart problems run VERY big in her family. So they checked her out thoroughly and she was fine. Not really sure what the problem was there. They have given her some sleeping pills to start taking, she had taken a sleep test too and apparently she never goes into a deep REM sleep, so she was tired all of the time. That may have helped cause the chest pains. Grandmother: She is living in Dallas now with her daughter Paula. We miss her very much. It's hard not seeing her all of the time. On one hand, what a relief not to 'have' to go over there every single day to visit and take care of her, but on the other hand - we don't get to go visit her every day. We talk to her fairly often and she misses us a lot too. She doesn't understand why we don't come over for dinner like we used to do. That's hard. She seems more and more scattered too, I think the dementia is getting worse. Alex: He is great! He acts like a typical 6 year old, which is crazy, but he's a pretty good kid nonetheless. He's doing very good in school and getting all A's :). He is great with his sister and loves to play with her. His birthday is coming up - March 21st. He wants to have a party at the skating rink, you should see him skate, he's good! I can't believe he's going to be 7! WOW. Me: So it's going on 3 weeks now that I've been sick. YECH. First it was just a regular cold, then it turned into major congestion and a head cold. Then it moved down into my chest with the lingering cough. So finally I broke down and went to the Dr. about it. He said I have bronchitis and gave me some VERY strong cough syrup and an anti-biotic to start. Well, about 2 days into that I've developed strep throat. He said this anti-biotic should work on that too, but so far it's just gotten worse, I've been on the anti-biotic for 5 days now, and not much better. I think I'm going to give it another day or 2 and then go back to him and say FIX ME! I'm really tired of being sick. I've got no energy...blah. Also, right before I got sick, I went to the Dr. about some other things that were going on with me and he said that I have urlLink depression . So he put me on an anti-depressant called urlLink Lexapro . So there's that fun stuff too.

So here it is nearly 2 1/2 weeks later...I'm still sick. I just can't seem to kick this thing. I finally went to the Dr. on Saturday morning, and he really didn't have anything to tell me. Gave me an antibiotic prescription and some cough syrup to start on. The cough syrup though, has hydrocodone in it and that is just kicking my ass! Way too strong for me. My husband, on the other hand, loves it. So he can take it - I'm trying to find some other medicine. All of the cough drops I'm going through are giving me a terrible stomache ache. I think I'm going to go home early again today and try to get some rest and kick this a bit more. We'll see. I missed Friday at work because Lauren was sick, took her to the Dr. on Friday morning and she had a strep throat and both ears infected. Poor girl, you wouldn't even know she was sick though, she was bouncing around like crazy! What a nut! Anyway...I'm going to get some rest. I hope all of you feel well. Bye.

So I have just been so busy! And sick on top of it - AUGH! So it began on Friday the 20th - I woke up feeling horrible, I came into work but only lasted a half day and went home to sleep. I slept until Sunday morning, yeah I guess I needed some rest! Isn't that nuts? I mean, I barely budged those 2 days in bed, boy was that nice. So anyway, ran around a bit on Sunday (grocery shopping etc...). Then I needed to get ready to go down to Florida, I left on Tuesday afternoon to fly to Ft. Lauderdale for work. It was so beautiful down there! MAN was it nice - sunny and warm. I stayed at a really nice urlLink place too. It was right across from the beach. But anyway, I was down there for work, an urlLink ISO audit of our Sunrise facility - so I didn't really even get to enjoy the area or weather. I left there Thursday morning and flew to Cincinnati and then back to Huntsville, I was supposed to go through Atlanta but they got snow and the flights were all getting delayed and cancelled. So I worked all day on Friday trying to catch up from being gone - I can never catch up! Then I went home packed up our suitcases and the car just in time for Steve to arrive home with the kids and we got in the car and drove to Cincinnati (I know - I was just there yesterday!) So, I'm still sick, Lauren is starting to catch the cold and Steve went to the Doctor that morning and was told he had a urlLink herniated disk - this is going to be a fun drive! We were so exhausted, but we made it into my brothers house around 2:00 am local time. Got up early Saturday morning and getting ready to head up to Canton where we were going to spend the afternoon with my parents. So we call to tell them we are heading out and find out that they are just heading in to the emergency room with my mom. She had been having hot/cold flashes all night with chest pains. SOOO, now I'm really anxious to get up there. So when we get there we meet up with Dad in the parking lot. She's fine, she's just being monitored right now and the kids can't go in. I'll go back later and visit her by myself. So we go to lunch with Dad - that was really nice - went to The Irish Exchange out on Tusc. Had lunch and then went over to my in-laws. Which, this is the whole reason we were even making this crazy trip - they were having a party Saturday night for my Mother-in-law's 50th birthday. So everyone knew we were coming except for her. So we show up and surprise her - she was surprised, so that was fun. OK, so then the party Saturday night - it was out at urlLink Peter Shear's and was really nice! We had so much fun, the kids were good, just a great night. They are really fun people (my in-laws and their friends). They are a bunch of crazy people, for sure, it was fun! Naturally then Sunday morning I'm a bit hung-over, ugh, and still sick, ugh again. We get up early and round the kids up and head on to my parents house. Everyone at my in-laws is still sleeping soundly. Mom is home from the hospital, she got home really late Saturday night. She's excited to see the kids so she takes over and Steve and I go back to bed. (Catch a bit of sleep, not nearly enough.) So we just visit for awhile, then get back into the car and drive back to Cincinnati, I'm getting really tired of this drive. We get to my brother's and they are just firing up the grill for dinner. We have steaks and fish and it was all wonderful, everything. We're waiting on our friend Steve Youels to come over and visit for a bit. I'm about to fall over I'm so tired and I'm still hacking away from this cold. Steve doesn't even get there until 9:00, which is way past my bedtime, so I try to hang for awhile, but give up fairly soon and go to bed. Get up early Monday morning cause the kids are running around like mad animals. LOVE IT. Once again, we pack up our stuff and head out on the road to come home. The drive home was not too bad, we got in fairly early and had a chance to just kick back and rest. We ordered in Chinese for dinner and did not much else. So anyway, that pretty much brings me up to today. I'm still sick...I want to feel better...I know this was a really long read...sorry about that. And urlLink Trish - sorry we didn't even call you while we were in Canton! I meant to, just ran out of time. Anyway - I'll keep it shorter now that I'm all caught up...well mostly caught up!

Last night I was helping my 7 year old son do research on Tiger Sharks. All he had to do was write 5 measley sentences on Tiger Sharks! AUGH. So we are out there searching on the web. Lot's of sites - he can't come up with 5 little sentences... Me: Why don't you write what they look like? him: No, I already know that. Me: Well, maybe not everyone knows that... him: Yes, mom, everyone knows that - except for kindergartners - 'cause they don't read. Me: (sigh) Well, why don't you write what they eat. him: No, they just eat people and stuff... Me: (grinding teeth) So write that. him: No, I don't want to write that either... Me: (clenching jaw) You have to write something, what else are you going to write - WRITE SOMETHING NOW! So this just goes on and on...he ended up throwing down 5 quick sentences that I forced him to write because it was getting so late. This is what you other parents of little ones have to look forward to. Get used to the idea now. Besides that though, I did learn some interesting tidbits on Tiger Sharks. :)

Running late today - I feel awful! YECH. Must be coming down with that stomache bug - but I guess if you want to be technical about it, then a HANGOVER would be the more accurate term. MAN, did I do some drinking last night. Ouch. But I had SOO much fun. What a blast. A girl here at work is getting married, so we had a little girls night out! We really had a great time. I didn't get in too late either, it was about midnight. However, I did start drinking at 5:00 - makes for a rough day today. Oh well, I don't do it that often. I feel better now, but didn't get into work until around noon. It was just SO much fun! We had guys all over buying us drinks - good to know that I've still got it. :) So anyway...Steve has a softball game tonight at 6:00, so I need to run and get the kids and we'll go watch him play. That should be fun. I guess anyway. What else is going on? I don't know, can't really think. Well, I'll just leave it at that and talk to you more tomorrow. Got to wake up! Hope everyone is having a better day than me! Bye!

Well, kind of anyway....I'm at home again today with my little brat, I mean darling daughter. Since I picked her up at noon yesterday, I can't take her back for 24 hours of symptom free. She was fine all day yesterday... not sure, she just may be trying to fight off that stomache virus. Just have to watch her. So I ran into work this morning and grabbed some more of my paperwork and stuff I needed and came back home with her. Besides, where else can you work in your underwear? Well besides like a strip club or something..(which I am not qualified for...) I love to hang out in just my tank top and bikini's! What a great work atmosphere! :) Anyway, so I will be working from the luxury of my couch in my undies :) NO PEEKING! Hope everyone is having as good a day as I am! I'll chat more later....bye!

So Lauren, it seems, has this nasty stomache virus that is going around. I had to leave work and go pick her up...Oh well, at least I get to hang out at home today...right? sure whatever...Now I have to wait at least 24 hours until I take her back to daycare as well. So, I will probably be home tomorrow morning as well. Kind of good, kind of bad - I'll get behind at work. Oh well, don't want her at school like this anyway. Gives me some time to hang with my little princess. OK, she wants to watch Tarzan, got to go get that started...talk to you later!

Oh well - that's OK - it should fly by fast then. So anyway...what is going on? Well, my son is becoming very diplomatic - too cute - Last night, he comes home from school and tells us he was on yellow yesterday. WHAT? Why? He looks at us with these pitiful little eyes and says 'I was just so excited about my dad coming home Friday night that I got on yellow today.' How could you be mad at that? Ha ha! He is learning so young! I LOVE IT! He also had a ballgame last night, they lost 7-6. Oh well, we'll get 'em next time. What else? Not much that I can think of, it's a bit cold out today - and of course I wore a little short skirt...hmmmm, not a smart move, my legs and toes are freezing! Oh well, it's better to look good than to feel good, right? right. OK all, have a great day - I'll try to post more later.

I won't get in to all of the juicy details - but WOO HOO! This was a great weekend. Steve didn't get in until late Friday night - Man, it was great to see him come down that hall in the airport! So anyway...it was just an awesome weekend...it almost seemed as though we were going for some kind of record...hee hee! We did go out Saturday night, went to 801 Franklin - WOW. Yummy, that place is just always incredible. We started off with a bottle of the Acacia Pinot Noir and a cheese sampler for an appetizer. Then I had the spinach salad and trout for dinner. Steve had the filet. Everything was mmmmm good. We also had the wine flight for the night, which was a set of 3 whites. Those were quite delicious as well. (And no Groonk - I didn't see Blake bartending...as you predicted, my mind was elsewhere...) So anyway...got to get busy here at work this morning. Hope everyone has a great day! Talk to y'all later!

Not sure how single parents do it!? I guess you do what you have to do. Anyway - got a very busy day here at work, and I'm feeling like crap today. My stomache and head are both spinning. Hopefully I am not catching that stomache virus that is going around here at work and daycare. Keep your fingers crossed - cause that would just ruin my welcome home plans for Steve!

As soon as I picked up my not-so-little girl, I felt it pull right in the middle of my back....Man that hurts. I should know better, but I guess I don't. Oh well. So I was wrestling around, tickling my brats this morning and now I have a shooting pain in my back. At least we were having fun! I had both of them going, they are such a riot sometimes. Not sure what I would do without them...except have some peace and quiet. But who wants that? :) Not me! I kid around a lot - but I really and truly love those nerds. They are really fun to mess with! Ha ha! So, tonight is our last night without Steve - he comes back home tomorrow night! I cannot wait! I'm getting ready for a HOT date with him Saturday night. Lining up a sitter and we are going out to 801. (Check out the link on the side there...) I love 801 - yum! Anyway - should be fun. Can't wait. OK - hope everyone is having a great day!

So, it was around 1993. I was working at Chi-Chi's - Belden Village in Canton Ohio. This was an awesome place to work at the time! I was going to school full time at Kent State University, dating Steve, and having a blast! It was one of those places that everyone got along. We all hung out together, we worked together, we partied together and a lot of us slept together...but that's another story! Anyway...So, Tricia started working there - somewhere around '93 anyways...maybe a bit earlier...Well, she was friends with one of the 'odd' girls. So, we really were not sure about her...watch what you say around her - cause we don't know what she is like yet! :) So, then Steve and I got engaged - that was December of 93. She had just gotten engaged as well and we were both starting to plan our weddings. That's when we became fast friends. We just clicked and hit it off from the start! There was actually 3 of us - Me, Trish and Susan. We were very close friends - but somehow - Trish and I were more alike...had more in common...I got married in '95 and at the time of my wedding, they were my best friends. Even though neither of them were in my wedding. How odd is that? Well, when we set the wedding and party and all of that - we really weren't hanging out. Then we did...but it was too late to change it. I remember on my wedding day - I was fine, not nervous at all...I walked into the back of the church holding my dad's arm - no prob! This was a piece of cake - then I turn the corner and the first people I see in the jam-packed church is Susan and Tricia - looking at me, smiling and a little teary eyed...I lost it. It just hit me so hard...I really had to grip on to my dad to make it up the aisle. So here we are 10+ years later and Tricia and I are still fast friends. She is surely one of those fair and foul weather friends. That's a great thing to know. Susan turned out to be a fair weather friend...but that's OK - a lot of people are like that. I don't keep in touch with any of my other friends from Ohio - I tried for a long time...but eventually just gave up. It was always a one way connection - they never tried to keep in touch with me. Oh well, again, you learn who your friends are. So, that's how I met Trish! Just a little bit of history...I don't know if any of you cared - but you know what? I don't care if you care! Again, I am only here to amuse myself! Thank you!

It seems like our lives are running parallel. Although, I guess that's what happens with good friends sometimes! We have so many things in common! It's really freaky sometimes. So Saturday, I went in to the Dr. and find out that I have urlLink Vertigo . Not really sure why though. I started feeling really dizzy at Alex's ball game Friday night and by Saturday night it was getting much worse. What a really bizarre feeling. I had never had it before - but I knew Tricia had been getting it often recently. So there you go...Sunday I felt slightly better and today - so far - I feel fine. Keep your fingers crossed!

I feel like my days are just flying by me and I am not really accomplishing anything. How bizarre, well I guess that's not really bizarre - just life. Today is a VERY beautiful day out. I don't want to be here. I have been having a very bad case of Spring Fever. I just don't want to work - I want to be outside playing! Oh well...Now I have a huge pile of work here on my desk and how will I ever catch up? I'll be taking it home with me this weekend - great. So Steve is leaving on Sunday for Vegas. He's going out there for a tradeshow and will be gone until next Friday. Just me and the 2 brats! :) I'm kind of looking forward to a little alone time with the kids. I'm hoping we can do some fun things. We'll see. Alex will have baseball practice and games several nights next week - so that will take up most of the time. I don't know yet...I will miss Steve though. I hate when he goes. It's not that often that he travels, I travel more than him. (I love to go on trips!) Well anyway, supposed to be very nice all weekend. I'm planning on working in the yard some more and lounging around. Doesn't that sound good? MMMMmmmm! OK everyone - going to attack this pile of work and try to get out of here as early as I can! Hope y'all have a great day! (I'm really starting to pick up this Alabama accent!)

So, I am still working away at this one...my goal in losing my weight and trying to flatten my stomache is to be a Milf. This is a term I heard on the movie American Pie, and I just love it! I want people to look at me and say - WOW - you have 2 kids - unbelievable! Yeah, I know, it's very vain. But, what can I say, that's what I am shooting for. Apparently I am having some sort of mid-life crisis. I did just turn 35 - in my family, that's beyond midlife! So, if anyone has any tips on reaching MILF status, or if they are trying to reach it as well, let me know! I'd appreciate it!

So we had a very nice Easter this year. This is the first Easter in about 7 years that we have actually had an Easter dinner! Very nice. I got up very early on Sunday morning and put together the easter baskets for the kids.... Lauren's: A cute little white basket filled with candy (not much), a plastic tea set, a jump rope, crayons, coloring book, a little stuffed easter bunny, urlLink silly putty , umm...what else? I guess that might be it - it was just all a bunch of small goodies from the dollar store (I love that place for things like this!) Alex's: A baseball duffel bag was his basket and it was filled with candy (again not much), a urlLink spirograph set , a silly pen with hair, colored markers, urlLink silly putty , a drawing book, construction paper, a water bottle and some hot wheels. Once I got them all put together, I put the baskets on the end of each of their beds - so they wake up to them. It's so fun hearing them wake up and start going through the stuff! I love it. So Alex comes running in to our room, where I'm pretending to be asleep, and yells 'Mom, the Easter Bunny was here!!!' - he is so excited! I love it! Anyway it was fun. My parents were down here this weekend as well, so we just kind of hung out all day. It was rainy and wet - so there was no playing outside...I cooked a leg of lamb, a ham, mashed potatoes, corn, and we also had deviled eggs and a big salad. It was all so good! Really yummy. That was the first time that I've cooked lamb, it turned out wonderful. I bought all of the stuff to make gyros with the leftovers and made the gyro sauce too. That's what we will have for dinner tonight. I can't wait. MMMM. :) So Mom and Dad left this morning and headed back home to Ohio. I hope to get up to see them again soon. We'll see. Today is my 35th Bday - wow. Not much planned, going out to lunch with some girls from work. That will be nice...I guess that is it. Steve already got me my bday present (That digital camera). So that's all. Boy, as you get older, there is just less and less to look forward to! haha! Oh well, just another day.

So right now, Lauren is sleeping, Alex is drawing with chalk on the front walk and I am sitting outside talking to mom and dad. They got here late last night and we have just been hanging out visiting. I think we are going out to dinner tonight for my bday. (I turn 35 on Monday the 12th). Not sure where I want to go yet, we'll decide soon. Steve is over at Mother's house helping his parents with loading up some of that stuff. They are trying to pack up and head out soon - quick weekend for them. I wish I could go see them too, but my parents are here - what a busy weekend. So anyway...tomorrow, we'll have a nice little easter dinner and just kick back again, then my parents are leaving here Monday morning. It's been a nice day here, we've been working in the yard and cleaning up out front. Now I want to go buy my new front porch funiture, not sure if we have enough money though....guess I'll wait. So anyway...just wanted to say hi. I'll holler at y'all later! Hope everyone is having a good day! Bye!

So here it is - 4:39 in the morning - aren't normal people sleeping right now? I suppose so...I just keep laying there thinking about everything that I need to get done both at home and at work...not fun. So I thought I would just go ahead and get up. This is ridiculous! So anyway, today I did go and have lunch with Alex - that was fun. He loves that, gets to show off his mom to the other kids. And all of the kids come running around and want to sit next to you too. It's so cute. I do like doing that, especially when I see him smile like that. I need to do it more often. Anyway - not much else...going to go shower and get ready for work. Hope everyone has a good day, I'll talk to y'all later!

Here's one I got today - thought was funny...again, I am only here to amuse myself! A drunken man walks into a biker bar, sits down at the bar and orders a drink. Looking around, he sees 3 men sitting at a corner table. He gets up, staggers to the table, leans over, looks the biggest, meanest, biker in the face and says: I went by your grandma's house today and I saw her in the hallway buck naked. Man, she is one fine looking woman!' The biker looks at him and doesn't say a word. His buddies are confused, because he is one bad biker and would fight at the drop of a hat. The drunk leans on the table again and says: 'I got it on with your grandma and she is good, the best I ever had!' The biker's buddies are starting to get really mad but the biker still says nothing. The drunk leans on the! table one more time and says, 'I'll tell you something else, boy, your grandma liked it!' At this point the biker stands up, takes the drunk by the shoulders looks him square in the eyes and says, 'Grandpa,....... Go home, you're drunk !'

Hello all! Well, I had a good night's sleep last night - the first night in months! I love it, I feel so much better today! :) Yeah! Anyway, another busy day at work today and I must get started. I am going into school to have lunch with Alex today. He's been asking for weeks and I never have time - not have time for your son - isn't that terrible? So I will go today - he's so excited, I can't wait!

Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says. 'Channels become more prevalent and better developed, the role of controlling and making' Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first? My ' urlLink stress reliever' balls from my trip to China. What is the last thing you watched on TV? I saw the end of NCIS last night on TV. WITHOUT LOOKING, guess what the time is. 1:15 Now look at the clock; what is the actual time? 12:43 With the exception of the computer, what can you hear? The shipping dept. moving around large pallets out back...people talking at the end of the hallway. When did you last step outside? What were you doing? When I went out at lunchtime to pick Steve up from the car dealership (getting his brakes fixed.) Before you came to this website, what did you look at? urlLink Alabama Weblogs... What are you wearing? Grey dress slacks, a dress shirt that has blue, tan and black stripes and black dress shoes. Did you dream last night? I don't remember it, if I did... When did you last laugh? ...not sure...can't remember.... What is on the walls of the room you are in? 2 small floral prints and a large 'impressionistic' painting of a front door. None of which I have picked out. Seen anything weird lately? Had lunch with my husband... What is the last film you saw? Saw Somethings got to Give Sunday night at home. If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first? A house - a really nice house! Tell us something about you that we don't know.

Make it a more caring place... Do you like to dance? If the music is good. Would you ever consider living abroad? Absolutely, just depends on where.

In the year of 2004 I hereby resolve.... ...to be a more positive and optimistic person. ( This one will be tough, but, I will try...) Yeah - well I knew this one was going to be hard...I think I'm better... ...to keep my weight down. So far, so good on this one - even have lost a few more pounds. ...to flatten my stomach by going to the gym more often. Then, if I get my stomach flat I want to get it pierced. (I just think that is sooo sexy.) Well, I am going to the gym 3-4 times a week and doing lots of abs exercises - I think I see a bit of a difference. ...to finally finish my kitchen. (Painting the walls, redecorating, etc...) I bought the primer and tape - left it sit in the garage now... ...to start painting and drawing again. And to take some art classes. I looked online, but have not signed up for anything yet. ...spend more time with my kids playing. I am playing with them a lot more! ...spend more one on one time with my husband! ;) Definitely doing that! ...write letters to my family and friends far away. no letters yet...I need to move on that! ...be more organized! Yeah - I'm about the same there! I'll work on it.

Last night Alex had baseball practice. We hadn't been there for very long, I had just started reading my book (The portrait of Dorian Gray) when I hear this loud thud...uh oh - I look up and all of the coaches take off running to Alex. He had turned to catch the ball - but the sun was right in his eyes and he lost it. It nailed him right in his nose - blood was just ouring out of his nose like someone had turned a faucet on. Oh boy, so they bring him over to the bleachers and sit him down - boy it was hard to get that blood to stop pouring. It just kept on coming. I finally got it slowed down and put some ice on his nose - poor kid- he was just bawling the whole time - 'this is why I don't want to play baseball!'. So after I get him calmed down and cleaned up some, I just took him home. He's OK, but he does have a mark under his nose from the stitched on the baseball....poor kid...

Went out to dinner last night with one of our Sales Reps that is in town. We went to urlLink Mikato's restaurant - yummy!! Had a really good time. After that, we went to a little bar, Rugby's, and had a couple of beers and then called it a night. I was back home by almost 10:00. It was good for me to get out - don't get to do that all that much! I really enjoyed it.

Another monday. This weekend flew by fast and furious. My family got in Thursday evening, it was a great visit with them. I wish I could see them more often. But anyways, it was fun. They stayed until Saturday afternoon and took off around 2:30 or 3:00. Lauren went with my mom - (yeah!). My mom and dad are coming back down here on Friday the 9th, they'll spend the weekend and bring Lauren back. It was so quiet here on Sunday without that girl. I just layed around all afternoon - wonderful. It was too cold outside to do much of anything anyway. So I just watched movies. So this morning, we're running late for work because we overslept...go figure. I just could not drag myself out of bed this morning! So, we're getting in a big rush - I tell Steve - 'go ahead in, I'll take Alex and then come in.' No sooner had he left, then I realize I cannot find my car keys. They are nowhere. I'm tearing everything apart looking for them. I'm suspecting that they fell out of my purse in his car. Well, he doesn't have a cell phone, so I have to wait until he gets all of the way into work to find out. So, after a few calls, he goes out to his car...sure enough - there they are. Now I need to wait on him to come all the way back home to give me my keys. What a pain in the ass! MAN. Then I need to go get gas right away because my car is way past E. Run Alex to school, he's so late, I have to go in and sign for him and take him to his class. So, by the time I get to work it is now 9:45. Most of the morning gone...Now, I'm trying to catch up again - as always. So, no workout today - no lunch today - work late. Actually I have a dinner tonight. One of my sales reps is in town from New Hampshire, so a few of us are going out with her. Should be fun. Not sure where we are going yet....OK - got to get to work then. Hope everyone else is having a good day! Talk to you later...

Today's Date: May 28 urlLink Aries 3/21 - 4/19 Group activities or projects you're working on with friends could prove especially inspiring today. Your enthusiasm is very high, dear Aries, as is your physical energy, and so you're likely to want to channel a tremendous amount of energy and personal power into whatever goals you want to accomplish. Today you have the courage to focus on matters that others might not even attempt. Move forward with caution, but go to it! This is just very interesting to me today - it seems to fit my day perfectly! Hmmmm.... very interesting ...

WAY busy this morning...trying to get this mountain of paperwork off of my desk and get out of here fairly early today. Not sure if I will succeed or not...we are heading up to Ohio after work and I'm not even packed - oh well, if I need it, I'll buy it! Nice attitude, right? sure. Anyway, just wanted to say hello and have a great weekend! I'll talk to y'all next Thursday! I'll miss everyone - have a great time! Bye!
