Isn't that the truth??
I don't know what's up with me.. some sort of upper resp. type thing.. coughing and my chest hurts. BLAH.
Hayden is feeling better, I think his fever was caused by him having 2 teeth coming in. Those back teeth hurt.. hope they're not still bothering him when he's in school. Don't need him distracted by anything.. 4th grade is when things get serious and I want..need him to do good.
So..I did some work for the business that I'm starting with my best friend Nikki. Got some work orders, receipts, and invoices made up. Baby steps..but we're gonna make it, I can feel it. My friend Tina is also going in with us.. the 3 of us combined will do amazing work. Crafts, floral design, cake design, sewing, woodwork. We'll specialize in weddings, baby showers, home decor. I'm super excited.
So..I ended up taking Benadryl last night so I could fall asleep.. I did, a little after midnight. Which is better than usual. I really think I need sleeping pills. Anyway.. so I woke up around 9:30 and went in to help Hayden clean his room. We completely emptied his toy bins and threw away old and broken toys, put some in the yard sale bin and then rearranged them all and put them back. Looks MUCH better!! Now I see why my mom was always so frustrated with me over my room, it all makes sense now. lol
Speaking of my mom.. since some of you followed my journal before my mom and I have a new found relationship. We get along really well. She lives in Virginia Beach and tho I didn't get to go visit her there this year, Hayden and I went for 2 weeks last summer and then Gail and I went for the weekend as well. Her and Jody came for Christmas last year and as long as their work schedule pans out they plan to come this year as well. My grandma died in Jan (11) so I went home with mom. We had to actually turn the machine off.. so the family gathered bedside..and I held her hand until her heart stopped. It actually took longer than I expected and was very emotional. I was still mad at her..and we hadn't spoken in years. She was stubborn, I think that's where I get it. But.. it hurt..and I felt horrible. I talked to her, tried to anyway..hoping she knew that tho I was mad that I loved her dearly. Then it was on to the house to try to get everything settled in the week we were there. Of course my crazy bitchy aunt was at the hospital kissing all our asses but as soon as grandma died she started her plotting. Her and her husband called the cops on my mom, me and my uncle for being in grandma's house. Now.. before anything else that woman hasn't spoken to or seen my grandmother in 7 years, at LEAST. On top of that grandma had told both of them they were to take care of things. So..we were. The cops left but not before we were all upset..ESPECIALLY Hayden. Anyway.. we settled everything but the house itself and her truck. Both are still for sale as we speak (we had to wait for lawyer crap before we could list). But..anyway.. mom and i are great. She still gets on my nerves sometimes..and if she lived closer we'd fight constantly. But we're the perfect distance apart..not to mention she's living at my dream vacation destination. hehe :) I get to go stay beach front, for free. <3
So.. not sure if I mentioned it or not..but Monday I (Gail decided to diet with me) will be starting Phase 1 of the Atkins diet. Now..I know there are all sorts of people that say bad shit about it..BUT Atkins was the diet I'd done (also called it the chicken and egg diet) when I lost 50 pounds. So.. that's what I'm doing and don't care who likes it. lol :)
Does anyone know the "Code" site for livejournal? I can't remember the codes..lol I can't even remember how to do a cut..lol :) I suck!
ok.. so I'm off to play on facebook and youtube! :)
