Tuesday evening Daniel and I drove up to Prattville to meet Shannon and baby Anya for dinner at Beef o'Brady's. On the way up I started feeling a little nauseated and dizzy in the car. It got a little better at the restaurant itself, but I still felt kind of off. I kept it simple with Sprite and chicken tenders to eat and hoped that it was just ( Read more... )

I'm still babysitting the two little girls in Millbrook. This is my last week with them though. Their school starts back on August 10th. Right now both of them are crashed out asleep. I'm glad that they fell asleep though. It's the house of the headache around here. All of us have had Tylenol today. You know the girls aren't feeling well when they ( Read more... )

The lappy lives! And has a functional keyboard! And apparently when the spacebar is working I type faster than the screen can display. It's fun watching the words scroll across to catch up with me when I stop for a second ( Read more... )

I babysat for my brothers for most of today. I had Dawson all day, and David from after school until around six or so. It's gotten to be such an easy routine when it's just me and Dawson. He's finally reached the point where he's perfectly fine being with me all day and we usually have a great time together. Today we spent at least an hour lying in ( Read more... )

Most of you know that I was a horrible shameless band geek for about six or seven years of my life. Heck, I still haven't let it go. I can't listen to really good instrumental music without wanting to imagine a field show for it, and Drumline has the ability to make me bawl because by god I miss it sometimes (even though we were a very very white ( Read more... )

I really suck at updating right now. It's been two weeks since the last update, right before I saw PotC 3 (which I was pretty dissapointed in). There hasn't been too much going on in all honesty ( Read more... )

I seem to start a lot of entries with "I haven't updated in a while." I'm really planning on changing that. I want to get back in the habit of updating often. It's been a whole month since I updated. I don't even have a real excuse for it ( Read more... )

Things are going a little better, at least as far as mental stability goes. I can't say there's been any real change in the situation itself. We're just trying to do our best to help Omi deal with everything and make Papa as comfortable as possible. He recognized me when I was up there last night. I was a little surprised, but glad. He knows that I ( Read more... )

This weekend was one of those wonderful rare weekends where I got to relax, and have a good time, and not really do much of anything. Saturday Daniel and I were wonderfully lazy and didn't get up until around 10 am, and then I made french toast. I've recently discovered that the flat gridle pan we bought forever ago is truly an awesome thing. I've ( Read more... )

There was a good bit of drama the past few days with the previously mentioned problem with my arm. It kept getting worse instead of better, so I called LifeSouth and they sent me to their doc-in-a-box place, American Family Care (kind of like PriMed). The doctor there meant well I'm sure, but in truth she really flipped me out when she told me that ( Read more... )
