My weekend for the most part was very good. Season finale of Third Watch was Friday. :-( And they TOTALLY left us hanging!!!!!!!!! I can't believe I have to wait until october to know what happened. GRRRRR.

Saturday was good, I spent a lot of time at my grandma's house. It was nice. The whole fam (minus my little brother) went out for dinner Saturday night at 99. It was fun. Mom, Dad, Gram, Me, Bob, Alexa, and my older brother Tim. It was fun times...Alexa was rather good throughout everything. So that was nice. We then went shopping for mothers day, talk about last minute!

Saturday night, before I went to bed...I decided to check the Gateway CC online student database thingy to see if they had awarded me any financial aid, or if anything had changed regarding my status. And the page opened up and I saw ... "You have been awarded aid for the 2004-2005 school year." and I was like, WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I started freaking out, thinking that my eyes were decieving me (I mean, it WAS 1 in the morning!) And sure enough, I had been granted $4200 for the fall and spring semesters. Which means that I'll have to pay for books...but my tuition itself will be paid. And the totally AWESOME thing about that...is that both parts of my financial aid package are GRANTS. Which means, I get to go to school FO' FREE! :-) GAHHH!!!!!! I don't have to pay them back! Woohoo!!!! That was the highlight of my weekend. So, I'm going to school! :-)

The events to follow my exciting 1 AM moment on saturday are not so exciting. I was up ALLLLLL night saturday night. I slept for an hour from 6:30 sunday morning until about 20 after 7. There is something seriously not right going on in my body. And I should call a doctor. or something. I will do that today. So anyways...yea, I was in a lot of pain. Pain to the point of just laying there crying into the pillow, trying really hard not to wake up Bob or the baby. Finally, I had to wake Bob up. I was just crying cause I didn't know what to do, and it hurt so bad. So I woke Bob up around quarter of 5. He's like, Honey whats wrong? and all I could do was cry. I was in so much pain. I felt like someone was taking a knife and stabbing little holes all over my lungs. That is what it felt like...A thousand knives stabbing at my lungs...continuosly...and nothing made it better. So Bob got me 4 Advil, hoping that would ease the pain so I could get SOME sleep. And then the baby woke up. So Bob got the munchkin and fed her and changed her, and as he was doing so...I felt that there was an Advil stuck in my throat. I absolutely HATE taking pills...and sometimes I just CAN'T take pills if they are too big. Well I managed to get down the advil, but I felt like there was one stuck. And it was making me want to gag. And I got that watery feeling in my mouth and thought I was going to throw up. So bob went and got me something to drink...and after that, I felt a little better about the advil being stuck in my throat. Pain was still there...but I laid back down anyway. And around quarter after 6, the pain started to subside a little. I kept praying...."Lord God, please help to heal this pain in my body" Not knowing whether that would actually work or not, but I just kept saying it. That is how bad my pain was. And by the good grace of God or the good grace of Advil, the pain started to go away, and I fell asleep around 6:30AM. Only to be awoken at 20 after 7. I came home and Bob had RCIA at church at 8:30, so we came here, and the baby was asleep so I laid ont he couch around 9ish and fell asleep. I didn't wake up until Bob woke me up around 12ish...and then I fell back asleep, and my mom woke me up at 12:30 because "dinner" was almost ready. I felt better that I slept cause I hadn't the night before. I woke up to my mother telling me who called...and there were lots of them. People to wish me happy mothers day. It was my first mothers day ya know. I felt old. lol. But it was nice.

I took some advil again before dinner because I felt the pain coming back. We ate...it was nice. Then we opened mothers day gifts and cards, it was nice. I got a white gold charm bracelet with a diamond heart on it from Bob, and a frame with a picture of Alexa and me in it. My mom got me these chocolate covered rasperry cookies that are double dipped in actual chocolate liquer. They were good, I only had one cause they were huge! I am not one for too much chocolate.

We went to Puerto Vallarta in middletown for dinner, Bob and me and the baby. It was a neat place...people call you amigo and senorita and stuff. It was cool. We ordered some stuff, it was good. Spicy, but good. And then Alexa knocked over Bob's entire glass of lemonade...and it got all over him, and the seat and everything. But I couldn't help but laugh becasue I said "Alexa, you got daddy all wet!" And she smiled and laughed. How can you get mad at that??? lol. so cute.

I am really tired. My body has still not caught up from the weekend horror. I'm still not feeling 110%. Oh well. I'll write more laters. I have to go to the Firehouse tonight...joy. So maybe I will have time to write more before then, if not...have a good day. :-)
