Gearing up for 2008

Hola All...

Well my friends, this week has been wonderful.. I have to admit Christmas was great and didnt go to fast and even though my sweet son was sick with double ear infections and a cold, and now mommy is sick to :( Well we've had not only kiddo sick but great uncle Rick sick with a cold to, so no wonder plus I loaded the car with as much gifts as I could from the family of 3 here.. Going in/out of the severe cold and now I'm sick with a cold.. UGH! Other wise I feel fine , just very tired and hope to keep going as much as I can even though DH is working graveyard and I have to tend to the wee one on top of feeling crappy.. I'm sitting here drinking my OJ I got at the store to keep some type of vitiman C in me to get over this cold, thank God I havent ran a fever useally I do if its real bad cold so thank God for that.. I took a hot shower due to needing one and just wanted to warm my bones up.. BRR!

Lets see what else? We went to grt-grandmas on Weds, DH had that day off to recoup and he was overly tired and was an ass to me and been mean to me for 2 nights before he goes to work, he apolgized to me today but I told him I am sick I need the extra help.. So he's trying but not quite what I'm wanting him to do.. OH well! He made me mashed tators and herb chicken, mmm soothed my throat due to the slight sore throat right now.. I just ate some soothing mazarella sticks and mm those helped and I was hungry didnt eat much today due to feeling crappy.. My son ate well and even took a nap! I was shocked! He fell asleep in my arms and then woke up and took him to his bed where he finished his nap, and I rested some to by closing my eyes and rested some b4 DS came and wanted some lunch.. So we did that.. All in all a good day despite of having to battle this cold and the cold air outside going to the store to get some more cold meds and some advil for my throat and then some food for the weekend, we gottena gift card for groceries but one tiny problem, the stores that it can only take it arent here in the city we're in ! So I am not thrilled but thats OK. We'll deal with it...

Well, I wanted to post and update y'all on how my son is doing from his ear infections, he's doing much better thank you all for the prayers that went out for him, that is a blessing in so many ways.. Now just pray he keeps well and that mommy gets well to now.. hehe! Well, I hope to see many of you in 2008 and may the Lord bless you and keep you, and may his face shine upon you as we enter 2008.. I love you all..

Love & Light

Christmas Day, Merry Christmas!

Hola

Well we are home and exhausted.. We made out like bandits today in gifts and such.. So now we're going through the gifts and taking out the boxes and such, the big cleaning will be tomorrow and take out trash and such.. I cant wait.. I want the house normal as possible before New Years.. My son, made out like a bandit, got a drawing desk, cloths, pjs and slippers, a truck and 2 small cars (Lightning McQueen) one a Frarie and the other a blue car.. My SIL's husband dressed up as Santa and did a big production for my son , he loved it even though he feels crappy he was in good spirits.. He ate well, takes meds very well, so I am happy even though he felt miserable.

We got up early this morning me and kiddo. DH got home around 6:30 and woke me up but let me rest some, I didnt sleep worth squat last night (Due to DH not home w/me and I dont feel safe) so my son crashed last night and slept he's allowed to stay up a little bit tonight due to its still Christmas, so I'm letting him have some fun and wind down from going to DH's mom's place for the day, we all had a good time and left around 7:30 or so to get a drink and head home, I did the driving both ways and I 'm tired now.. My allergies are bad right now and so hope that I can take some more tylenol sinus and go to bed.. I"m in my warm flannel pants my SIL got me, she bought me 2 pairs and I got new pjs and DH got me slippers and socks...

LIke I said we all made out like bandits but the food was ok for dinner enough to want/need to eat and then we opened gifts after, we dont rush in opening gifts, we take our time due to being so much of them.. DH's Uncle was sick to a cold so we had 2 family members sick this Christmas.. I felt bad for our loved ones, and me and DH are so tired we were fighting sleep most of the day..

Well, I wanted to post before the day was out .. I hope y'all had a blessed Christmas and a great and glorious day!

Love & Light

Laura

Christmas Eve........

Hola All,

Merry Christmas! Well today has been exhausting! I am so tired and do not know what to do w/myself, seriously! I have last minute cleaning to do and vacuuming to do but I cant do that till my boys wake up, they are resting right now and we are just enjoying a very hazy day here in the Central California.. I was hoping for some sunshine but no..

My poor son has a double ear infection so he's on antibiotics for that, just gave him his first dose hope he'll rest today so he can enjoy Christmas tomorrow with he family even though he feels like crap.. He slept with me last night and due me we didnt get much rest, tonight after DH goes to work and DS in bed for the night I'll pull the gifts out and put them around the tree so I can take pictures in the morning.. We spent the moring in the ER and man thats gonna cost some money but hey my son's health is more important.. Lets see not much going on here,just need to get my lazy butt up and start tackling this place and make it more relaxing and inviting..:)

I do hope and pray y'all have a wonderful Christmas and a great day.. God bless..

Love & Light
Laura

3 Days Before Christmas..

Hola

Well here we are 3 days before Christmas and still a little bit to do.. I am amazed how fast and serious time is going this year thank God.. I am glad the clock is slowing down and that we're so close to having time to enjoy the holidays.. My DH is at work, 2nd night on Grave-yard shift so far he likes it but still a struggle to sleep in the day time while me and DS are up having our day and doing the "normal" things in life,such as laundry, errend running and just enjoying the chilly air.. It looked cloudy all day and looked as though it could rain but I am not sure, the forcast didnt say rain,but we sure could use more of it.. Today I actually got 3 rounds of dishes done, 2 loads of laundry finished just need to worsh towels and then I'll be caught up till next week.. I like to have the holidays clear and beautiful for us to enjoy with out the house a mess and things out of order at leat the common areas of our home..

I am amazed how beautiful the air is even though I am in the city its still nice and cool and you gotta go out with a jacket of some sort and brr cold! My g/f is visiting her in-laws this weekend and I am not sure if we'll see each other this weekend and honestly I dont mind,I know Christmas is around the corner and her daughter Bday is Sunday her DH's bday is today.. So she's busy... But we'll talk soon on via-IM on Weds or Thurs of this next week before we ring in the new year..

I have been busy trying to get DS to go to bed so I can play my game a bit or read awhile before I turn in , I am exhausted and just need some rest, I slept 2 hrs for a nap this afternoon while DH was up and DS finally went down for his nap for 2 hrs also.. So its like 10:30 and battle with DS for bed for an hour now.. UGH.! But he's 2 so I cant complaine but he's been sick the past 2 days he's feeling better but still whinny and grumpy so hope he'll be better by Monday full back to normal self so he wont be so crabby when we see family on Christmas Day.. A full house at least 15ppl if not more will be there.. I am amazed that I get to spend some time with my DH for Christmas, I feel so spoiled and yet so blessed by all that God has shown favor the past few days even though circumstances havent been great this year I still yearn to my faith in the Lord and know He'll never give us more than we can handle .. I have to keep reminding myself of that and things will be much easier.. Course for me I hate change but like my family and friends tell me I have to learn to go with the flow and learn a few things but it isnt easy!

I am blessed to have good freinds whom let me vent and share my heart with out judgement or condemnation.. I so badly need more people like that in my family who can just talk and not feel judged or guieded when I know in my heart what I should do and what I do..If that makes sense? Well I hope everyone is safe and healthy this holiday season.. May y'all be blessed beyond what you ask for.. Love yas!

Love & Light
Laura

Christmas in Gear.

Hola From the Home Front..

Well this past weekend was wonderful, we spend time with our dear freinds the Hieberts.. We drove the 3.5 hrs to their house and the fwy was nice and clear and the weather couldnt have been more perfect! I am so thrilled about that.. I did most of the driving and DH sat and realxed while I did that.. We picked up a quick meal for breakfast even though we ate at the Hieberts we still were hungry and only going off maybe 4 hrs of sleep.. So thats been what we've been up to.. I am glad to see things settling down..

We got there around 11:30-12noon and ate a nice brunch and headed to the beach so we had to take 2 cars to the beach cuz that is all 9 of us, just wait till I have another baby that'll make 10 of us if not 11 by next year LOL! Lord help us!

It was so good to see my g/f Tangee we talk by Via -IMs , text message, and phone, but its so much easier in person due to not seeing each other often.. We got to start planning 2008 to see each other at least 2x a year so that we we can keep our Dh's talking and our boys together.. Our boys are only 5months and 2 days apart to amazing and they both just love to visit when they can and have time.. I am grateful for that.. So we had a wondeful time at the beach played and talked and our husbands hung out and talked we pray they form a good solid friendship together and open up on some personal issues.. I am glad for that.. We've been trying for about 3 yrs to get those guys to talk !

So that night after sandwhiches and chips and coffee and soda we all relaxed and open gifts and talked while their kids went to bed and we decided around 7pm to start heading back home due to the 3 plus hour drive.. I drove part of the way at least 2 hrs and DH drove the last hour and half home due to me feeling very tired and worn out.. So that was nice..

I just hope we can go down again soon in a few months and see and talk more, once I get my own car again, we can meet in maybe Tulare or some place remote and easy to find.

Well thats about it here, just need to finish wrapping and finish up the stuff we need to do and then we're going over to Dh's grandmas for a little while and I need to take the day in the next 2 days and get my glasses fixed.. Dh works grave-yard for 2 weeks starting this coming Thursday and I am not happy about it,he's working 5days till Christmas and has Christmas off so we'll be going up to his mom's place and the whole family will be there at least 15 people so it'll be packed! Its supposed to rain Christmas Eve so we'll see how Christmas day goes.. I guess I finally felt fine bout the whole schedule change and its hard and why now why not in January or some thing ya know?

Any who just trying to enjoy the Christmas spirit even though things this year has been hard and just need a good year and blessed of God.. I know God dont give us more than we can handle and so just gotta keep the faith and in his arms during this time..

I hope everyone has a good holiday and are blessed, stay safe! Merry Christmas!

Love & Light
Laura

RE: Here and There..

Hola All..

Well its been awhile since I posted on this blog, I have way to many to blog and post,help! Anyway things here have been good.. Dealing with no car to drive and hubby is driving my car the cavalier so far due to him smashing the S10 Chevy (not intentally but its there).. We've been looking at cars lately and I think I found a car I want, its a KIA Rondo SUV small and wonderful to drive its a 4.2 cylendars and drives like a dream.. OMG I cant wait to get my hands on that car!

Other than that not much going on here, I'm a bit peeved at my mother in law , very long story, but its eh not talking to her much.. She risked my son's life for no reason and so now she 's not allowed to baby sit for awhile except when we go up to visit and drive around thats it, other wise she's not allowed to drive with him with her for a long while.. I dont trust her nor do I want to trust her right now..

Well my period should be soon done,thank God, I am like not bad month really,been pretty light. My G/F and I started and ended together so that'll be wierd if we both got preg at the same time oy! We're TTCing as it is anyway just really need to focus on that part now and get it done so I can have another baby b4 my body changes more.. EEK its near 3AM and I'd best get my butt in bed, I'll post more tomorrow when I get up.. Talk later!

Love & Light
Laura
