A Little Fun

Hello Friends..:)


Well as y'all might know I know I brag and beg to display life as I know it and boy its not very exciting to post but we're getting better and better.. Often I know that often I find myself just enjoying the peace and quiet pace today even tho my monthly dropped today, ugh! So here we go!


Today we got up oh around 9ish this morning and left by 10:30ish to meet up with MIL who was coming down and we all had a nice lunch about an hour.. We couldnt go up to their place and go on their boat due to just no communicado.. So that was fine by me.. Then we're just sitting here enjoying a nice day even though it got up to 95 today not as bad as most days we've had in the 100s.. Oy!

We have a well I am not sure if its major but there's a fire in a community of Mariposa and they need prayers and pray for the fire-fighters that they fight it, from what we're told it'll take 2 weeks to containe it.. Thats gotta suck! So plze pray that it gets under control.. Thats my more serious note tonight..


So after lunch we came back to our part of town, we had Arby's for lunch it was "ok" not the greatest but hey cant complain when its food.. Then Hubbie got me a coffee drink at 31 Flavors then we went to the bank and deposited some money.. Then I asked Hub if we could look at the honda dealership for cars and find out some info.. Well we're getting serious about a new car but cant purchase till we pay off the one we have now, and then we'll be able to concentrate on the next car I'll end up driving.. I'm still not sure on which car, and in spite of trying to get pregnant again is a big thing now to.. Well not pushing to get preg but its on my wish list.. So I'm happy and the guy whom I spoke to about the car I wish to buy well, its the best and we exchanged info.. So I'm needless happy to know where I stand and where I wanna be in the next 6mo to maybe a year.. We'll see how it times out ..


So then we went to the movie place called FYE ? I think, dont quote me.. I got 4 movies and some were for a good price then we came home both of us were bushed and very hungry and tired.. Course Hubbie cleaned out the bed room some more and did some dishes for me.. Which was a plus to get a break, I so needed one! I am worn out physically.. Then we're just chilling I watched 1 of my movies and the 2nd I didnt finish, I let Hubbie watch his movie Catwoman with Hale Barry.. Good movie BTW.. I'll go back in 2 weeks and buy some movie for Christmas.. Since I can get good deals..


We had enchalta soup tonight oh YUM! So good.. I am a lil tired but not as much as I thought.. Esp when I know I've been going since oh, 9am.. Not as bad I think.. I'm about to pop in my movie again and finish it b4 I got bed.. O and I got a book called Haunted by Kay Hooper, so far good on Ch 2 I think? or 3?


Well thats my day enjoying a nice evening.. So I hope y'all have a blessed week, I'll probably post again at the end of the week.. God bless

A Fun Day

Well today was a semi-good day.. Hubbie had to finally be told to get up off the couch, and help me clean! He didnt like that of course but hey, I cant do it all myself all the time.. ugh! So I did dishes once I showered and cleaned the kitchen semi clean and its getting there, the only thing I hate is cleaning sheet pans.. Ugh! BLAH! I can wash the counters or sweep/mop the floors over cleaning that.. The trash is out and so now all is laundry



So then we left around 4pm to meet my g/f who lives 3.5 hrs away in Reedly and we often try and meet up.. She's coming back up in 2 weeks I believe.. And I'm planning a trip down in Sept, so we'll see each other more this year.. Yay!


We stopped at the small hard-ware store, called Orchard or OSH? and picked up some thing there, I have to go out later and get some bread and other things at the store... Other than that not much is happening. Kind of kicking back now enjoying a movie called Martian Child.. Pretty good with Jon Cuisac dont ask me to spell.. So thats about it.. We'll make Taco's later tonight, oohh yummy! I didnt eat much today cept for a BLT and some fries and half of a McD's sandchich.. Just wasnt hungry.. Wow nearly 9pm and I"m a lil bushed course havent been sleeping well lately so hope I'll start sleeping good again..

Well, I'd best get going , some things to do.. Hope y'all have a great week, and yes I know this post is a little late..But hey better late than never! hehe

Hubbie has 3 days off this weekend again.. Cept its Sun/Mon/Tues he works Sat and Tomorrow the 4th.. I'll do a diff post for tomorrow's holiday..This is a regular post..


We had a nice lunch/dinner at Denny's and my son ate like a horse and is down sleeping so I can get some much needed quiet time.. I was grumpy today but pulled out of that mood.. So I paid rent and put money in the bank, so now we're one happy camper! Wahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


So on that note, I hope y'all have a geat 4th of July and celebrating our Nations Freedom and Independance..Remember no drinking/driving, and be kind on the roads this year..

Intersting Week..

Hello Friends


Well this is gonna be an interesting blog post; only due to alot going on this week and alot of high stress from today to say the least.. I cant stand to not post to much info but not many who have my blog and nor read much of it.. So thats ok,I took it off of one site so its a bit more private..


Fathers Day was nice; even though at first I was in a foul mood but got over that pretty quick, and hubster was like why are you so grumpy and I"m gong I DONT KNOW! Anyway we got to his mom's and low behold not alot of ppl were there yet,so that was nice, we got there, and I ran down to get some Pepsi they serve water,or diet soda, I hate diets cept for 7 up or Diet Coke.. Gotta e cold tho! Some times diet A&W is good to.. But I was more into Pepsi, and so I did that and came back and more folks had arrived, so we went and did that, and relaxed some.. Not many talked to us me or Hubbie so we were quiet bored to death. Dinner was served around 4 or 5pm was orginally to set around 2:30ish but started wayyy late. Ugh!


Then we got home around 10pm and put my son to beddy bye and he went down ok.. Then we watched 2 movies, one is American Gangster and the other The List.. Both were pretty good movies.. I returned them on Monday..


So Monday comes along and I have to pay the final court fees ,YES! So I go down, we had a good time, Dh had to work, so I was alone most of the day.. Which was fine, and ran errands, sent off packages, and the like ya know life..


Then finally got home put son down to nap, due to the heat, and I needed a breather, my g/f and I texting back and forth my angel.. So then we left to get daddy and come home put Ds back to bed and we're eating for the night and pure exhaustion.


Then this week has been wonky due to diff days that DH is working.. So I am like confused on what day of the week it is now.. Going what day is it?! I'm totally lost hehe!


So I've been home on/off this week and been pretty happy, just needed to get some stuff done, ya know around the house, did laundry, DH does dishes, and we both vacauum.. So now its close to Friday.. Amazing that its amost Friday feels like Friday and not Thursday..? Strange week I'm having... I went to the bank this AM to put some money in it, and then we called our attorney to find out what they called about,and to come to find out, they couldnt get ahold of some certificates that we had, and in the long run we're not gotta dish out $500 to file 2 lil certificates, I was sooo angry I about think I popped a gasget.. DH wasnt happy but in all honesty its not our fault it was the damn web-site that we were told to go to, the classes and they didnt do their damn job.. I told our lawyer to,and she totally understood and knew ya know how we felt and all.. I had a couple high bills this week so its taking some money.. Well now we're gonna be tight for about 3 months to get re-adjusted to the dishing out this $500 I am still peeved..


Anyway just a note of life, some times God throws things at us to see how we're gonna react.. Yes I am angry but I gotta let it go and let him keep the control of things and just keep it in his hands.. Hard to do and easy to say.. But I know he knows this and is forever paitent with us to learn this valuable lesson.. So just know all things work together for our good, Romans 8:28

Discombobulated!

Hello Friends...



Well, many of you might say what in the world is Discombobulated? Well thats a word I learned a long time ago, in a musical that I was in for school.. I dont re-call the words to the song,but its about sums up life right now..




We had to re-take every thing out and tonight in the process of putting back the stuff once again!. I am so tired and been not feeling to hot and dealing with pest control once again, and most weren't ready for pest control due to they didnt care,but for those of us who had bugs/pest were annoyed to have our homes up-side down for the most part.. Had to move ALL of the furniture and so forth,not fun.. Tonight we moved a few peices around and re-doing stuff as we go.. I still have the bathroom to finish and then I can go to bed... I am again very tired.. Last night I went to bed oh, around 2-3 am.. Woke up around 5-6am and had a heck of a time going back to sleep.. UGH..

So we're about on Fathers Day and my husband has the day off, but his work schedule is off a lil bit to, so we'll all have to adjust to certain days off till he gets back to his normal schedule.. So we'll see.. My Birthday is soon here, and I so cant wait..I got some of my b-day gifts so I'll share with you some of those.. Lets see what else? Not much going on here.. Just enjoying myself what I can; and just dealing with the heat, and just about to hit over 100 outside,oy! I am so not ready for summer but thats ok.. I can do this..:)




Well,hope you all are well and happy.. I gotta go tackle that bathroom b4 I cant and fall asleep.. Be blessed !

Love & Light

Long Week!


Hello Friends.

Well its been a long week for sure. Even though my DH was home this week an extra 2 days due to a toothache which he got taken care of on Weds (yesterday) sorry drew a blank there.hehe


So he's been in pain since Sunday but the tooth broke a month or so ago and so now its all done, he has 2 more to do,but maybe we can prevent that and get his teeth done and glasses and his medical all done b4 summer is over? I hope so!


Lately I've been really exhausted, and been busy keeping house, but all in all things and life is good.. I did laundry today and washed a few dishes and ate a pizza and watching a movie called The Family Stone, oy it hits home for me in that movie , its a clean film but wow emotional .. I want to own it to, so we'll see..


The weather has been nice, and in the 80's and enjoying it.. I did get some goodies at Bath & Body Works and oy it was nice! Then I got a wallflower called Cinimon Stick, its strong but oh smells so good! I am like yeah!


Well here we are near Friday and my week went POOF right under me.. I'm drinking a chocolate shake, omg so good! My 2nd one this week to. I asked my sweet Dh to get me one. Mmm!


So thats my post tonight, not alot but enough for now.. I'm still pretty tired and need to sleep some.. May God bless you and Keep you and that all are safe in the summer time .. :) Much love

The End of May...


Hello Friends


Well here we are at the end of May.. I am for one glad to see it go.. I know alot of people ask why well, besides Mothers Day, the month doesnt bring much joy but at least my walk in the Lord is more and getting there each day..

Please bear with me, I have a dull headache and had it since this early Am like around 2:00 on and even went to bed with it but took some thing to help but its not all helpful at the moment and took a 2nd dose of OTC (over the counter) meds.. They do bring some relief but alot of times, it takes the edge off for awhile..


Anyway back to to my post.. June is here and we'll be celebrating fathers day and many who have birthdays also which is me! My birthday is the 25th of June and oh so nice, even tho I hate summer hope each summer comes its mild and just wonderful.. Most summers here in the Central Valley are very hot, it goes from Bakersfeild to I believe Medesto or so, and its just HOT.. I hate it but at least we have A/C and are able to keep cool with a pool to.. My son hasnt learned to swim but he loves the water, espically bath time.. I took him swimming 2 weeks ago and he cried for about 5mins and then he got used to the big pool and wanted to swim.. So that was nice.. Even tho during the day it was over 100 outside..


So we're beginning to break into summer routine here and lazyness and that I dont have a car right now, makes things a lil difficult for me but that'll be remedied next year for sure.. So then I can do more activities with my son that stay home couped up from the summer heat and winter rain.. I am a winter person, I'd rather do stuff in the winter time than any thing, summer I get the depression due to the heat and just not much I find fun..


So hope everyone has a great summer and filled with busy bees even when the gas prices are over $4.33 here a gal, unbelieveable.. I sure wish the governmt would fix that and for everyone to have to pay regular price but thats a whole diff post than what I want to get into here.. So I pray everyone is safe and enjoys the summer time with loved ones..

Love & Light

Interesting Week..

Hello All


Well,this has been a very long week I gotta admit.. Even though alot of the programs and shows are coming to season finale.. Lets see whats on the block for this week.. Well, we singed a new lease for 6 mo to give us some time and perspective on what to do and save some money to move.. Which in turn I doubt.. We had a very hot weekend last weekend, and it was in the 100's this weekend and whew, our A/C was wonky from not producing enough cool air.. So Monday we had that looked at, then fixed.. Today we got our 2 remaining plugs fixed and so now they work,yeah! Happy about that..

So thats been the bulk of my week.. My shoulder/neck pain is finally going down still there some but its slowing and its such a releif to have; been taking so much tyelnol and advil to move and do stuff.. Today tho I had to take allergy meds due to the high winds we got yesterday and today.. Well, I thought I'd post my useal posting of 1x a week,hehe.. Hope y'all are having a great time and staying cool or comfy while this weather is nice this weekend, my DH has 3 days off, so I dunno what we're gonna do with ourselves.. So my bday is coming up in a month and so I am soo excited, even though I'll be eh my 30's .. HELP! LOL


Well I gotta get some stuff done..Stay safe and cool,and hold your children close..


Love & Light

Summer Arrivals..

Hola All.


Well, now that Mothers Day has come and gone, and I gotta say I was blessed to be happy mom and not have to share my day with anyone, yes! Hehe.. For many thats a major accomplishment but gotta say it didnt suck.. DH made me a brunch and it was really good,waffles, bacon,and dunno what else? Then we went to browse stores and had a nice time, got me a choc/chip pretzel oh it was good! Then found a game I wanted, so bought that on Monday and a new wallet.. Sweet!


Then Mothers day night, DH made me a shrimp dinner oh so good! Garlic bread and salad and just plain good stuff! Chomped that down oh so good, then watched the movie Castle on TV then watched our Rented movies that we had and returned 2 movies and then rented 2 more.. So yesterday I returned those and got gas for DH and then just chilling did laundry, dishes, had alot to do since DH didnt do jack shit over the weekend cept cater to me and make good food, but cleaned nothing.. He did how-ever take out 2 bags of trash I was about to take out last night but didnt..


Then he gave me my MD card and it was shitty but it was worded nice but it was a truly aweful card.. Just hate it.. Even though my birthday is in a month, that doesnt make up for Mothers Day at all. Esp being my 1st where I dont have to share it.. He didnt even get our son Josh's card from him for mommy's day.. Oy! So I wasnt to pleased with him but oh well its over and done..


Lets see what else? Weather has been un-bearable , even tho only in the 80's and striking up in the 90's and SO not wanting summer to be here yet.. Wish it was cold and comfty for me to be in sweats and jeans even a tank top is nice to wear but man, I do not like the heated up summer months..

So thats been my week, been a little busy but today didnt do much but light stuff around the house, been tackling it one day at a time and played my new game tonight, its getting kind of cool to play to.. Nothing gory or anything its rated T for teens and kind of fun.. A nice break from the gory games I play hehe.. So now I am about to ward off and go read my book and sleep; I am pretty tired and way off my sleep schedule ugh..

Hope y'all have a fab week.. Much love!

Mothers Day..

Hello My Friends,


This is the time we celebrate Mothers Day this weekend.. As I look at this special holiday I find it hard to celebrate and yet I'm a mom myself, well since I got pregnant with my son,Joshua. Being a mom is every girl well almost every girls dream.. There are some women who dont want children, and for those who dont, I respect that, I mean our world is having times of hardship and some have other obligations but for those of who are mom's how do we take Mothers Day and find peace and in God's grace that we are blessed with our children. I dont care how many kids we all have we can have 1 to 100 and still we're all mom's.. I also say those of us who miscarried children are ours also, even tho they are not in our arms but in our hearts and in the arms of Jesus and loved ones to be there waiting to see us when we all get to Heaven..


I see Mothers day as a day to reflect on how I am a mom, and how can I improve on being a good mother to my children. Its not just a day for our kids to say Thanks Mom, or our husbands to praise us for carring our children in childbirth or if we adopted thats still raising children that are to grow and learn of the things in the world and for us to raise them in Godly principals or what ever belief you have..


Also for those of us who lost our mom's on Mothers day or any time in the year and we celebrate that with out them.. I tend to think of when Mohters Day comes around, that I often think of my mom and just wonder what life would be like if she were here and me married and have a son.. I am sure she'd be thrilled and spoil him rotten;) I often wonder how my relationship with my mom would be like now that I am married and a mom; I often think of maybe the conversations I would have or would love to have and learn things about myself as a young child of ages birth till I hit Kindy..

I often think of her and I know she's in spirit with me and even though my own emotions and anger get in the way of good times with my mom which were very few in between but the memories I have I so cherish and love..


So sit back and tell you mom alive or not that you love her and miss her and thank God for his grace to help us be parents.. Help us be mom's who we are created to be weather we stay home with our kids or we have to work and provide food and a roof over their heads.. Enjoy the day with your children and hold them ever so close..


Happy Mothers Day


Love & Light

Songs/Hymns History..

Hello Loved Ones..

Well you are probably wondering why I put songs/hymns on my blog, well tonight I believe the Lord had me tune into TBN tonight and hear and listen to the old old hymns I grew up singing, such as Amazing Grace, What A Friend We Have In Jesus, How Great Thou Art, Silent Night/Holy Night and I am sure there were many many more..


What amazes me is when I learn the history of those old songs and what comes to life in me today as it was not even as a child.. I grew up singing those hymns and it didnt hit me as it does now as an adult who's lived and done and been through alot in life.. Alot I cant share about but those who know me the "Real" me knows my struggles and the pain as well as our Lord and Savior.. What makes me want to cry hearing those songs and the history is the authors were just ordinary men or women in some cases wrote the words and for what, it wasnt in song yet, it was more into poems, sermons, just written about what they were going through in life, struggles, pain, despaire, and so much more.. Alot of them didnt journal or write things just so they can keep things private, they wrote to maybe help themselves but in the sense, they wanted to help others who might go down a difficult road ahead..


So lets taking the hymn what a friend we have in Jesus, that song so transpires us to want to be close to the Lord as we should and take every thing to God in prayer; every thing meaning our lives, jobs, children, finances, the world we live in today.. With the thigns of the world getting worse and not better, with gas prices going up every day and food rising with it, and yet our pay isnt going up there along with it.. People are scared and yet, what should we be doing? Praying and being and clinging to Jesus in these dark hours of what is going on in our world, in our lives..


Take Amazing Grace; think of the song as an autobigraphical of a man who perhaps didnt do what was right morally or spiritually, yet he made peace with God in his life knowing he'd live knowing God saved him by Grace, by the depts of life and even his own mom's prayers for him to enter the ministry, and later in life he did.. Now I call that an answer to prayer of a mom's heart..


So many I can write on,but the point is, when we learn things such as these old hymns they are alive today as the day they were written and composed to what we know today. So when you stop and think and listen to the words of the old old hymns think of how Great is our God to put ordinary men in life and even today, to write songs that maybe we cant convey the words but deep with in our spirits to sing praise to God..


Well, I hope you all are safe and are blessed by this post I know its not my useal post but thoguht I'd write some thing to encourage y'all.. Much love


Love & Light

Our Wedding Anniversary..

Hola

Well, we just celebrated 7 yrs togther yesterday (Monday) and it was nice.. We both had a good day, mostly browsed stores, bought Christmas gifts already for some close freinds and family. Then we meant to go bowling but by the time we got there we couldnt go.. They had leagues going..BLAH


Sunday was nice but oh man I was exhasuted.. I fought sleep all day long and finally had to have chocolate and a coffee drink to wake my butt up.. Sunday we went up to drop my son J off, to grandmas for a 2 day visit. Then we visited for a few mins and then we left to get lunch hadnt eaten all day.. So we stopped a Jack N Box for lunch it was OK not the greatest.. Then we browsed stores then went to the movies saw movie 21 w/Kevin Spacey.. Good movie! WOW! Then we got home and I was exhausted and went to bed around 12:30ish?


So Mon got up late but it was ok I needed the sleep.. Then see 1st paragraph.. Then we rented a movie then came home and relaxed while I browsed the web and DH watching TV..


Today we got up sort of late but not really going to bed around 2:30 am.. OY! Then we got up around 11 AM then I showered, dressed, cleaned out the car, and did some dishes and then took DH to work, came back down to town, got the car washed , vacuumed out, then went to get gas, and got a coffee drink.. Drove up to pick up DS and then around 6pm started for home.. So now waiting to get DH from work and relax after that.. So we'll see.. Long day for sure!


Hope ya'll are good and well..

Spring Near Summer Weather..

Hola

Well, I am not sure if we're getting close to summer weather or not,honestly I hope not.. Today was nice, I was up b4 8 am w/my son patting mommy's arm and waking me up.. Altho DH has been up for 3 days w/him in the mornings so it was my turn.. So I was happy to oblige getting up and spending quality time with him watching noggin.. He was moody today and I hope it evens out by the time he's 3 yrs old, cuz every few months he's moody or happy.. This time around moody big time.. The last 2 nights we've battled going to bed and mommy had to take him back each time but he'd cry and hug me so cute but its night-night not up time.. Tots!


Today we went to Target, the mall to Bath N Body place, and then to the dollar tree then jamba juice to get me a strawberry drink oh so good,and we had a coffee drink at Target.. So it pretty much wired me the rest of the day.. For some reason I crashed yesterday (weds) and just didnt feel good at all.. So we'll see how I felt today cept for my legs hurting pretty bad and did 3.5 loads of wash on Tues but I dont think that was the problem as to why I am sore?

So thats been nice, it was up to 87 today here, hoped it would be only 73 or so.. No a lot warmer than that.. Should have put my son in shorts for it that warm! My 7th anniversary is Monday I guess looking fwd to it.. I honestly do not know what we're gonna do that day or what.. We might do bowling a dinner/movie and my son will be at grandmas from Sun night till Tues afternoon.. I pick him up, so due to me not trusting my mom in law to drive w/him at all.. I am valid in that and glad I am..


So thats about it here,just watched the movie Juno what a stupid movie about a girl who gets pregnant and finds adoptive parents and just blah and the music was worse.. Ugh! Hate that movie honestly.. I didnt want to watch a stupid movie, and tomorrow is Alvin and the chimpmonks for my son josh to watch so we'll watch that with him.. Hope its better we'll see..


Anyway wanted to post b4 I hit the sheets, I am starting to feel tired now; but thats ok, I hope my son wakes daddy up tomorrow and let mommy sleep in..


Love & Light

Heat Heat Heat, So Not Ready....

Hola Loved Ones

Well, I am to say the last, so not ready for this heat, we were up to 93 degress here in the valley and whew I thought LA was bad, nope! LA was like in the mid 80s and not even close.. I gotta say though I am so not ready for summer, my stomach is already acting up from the heat and what-ever else I ate today.. I am pretty much exhausted right now, I drove down and back from my g/f's and its not a bad drive today was it was Friday, Friday I got held up 2x by traffic jams.. But we had a great time, we bowled, we hit the bed early, then she and I went to a scrapbooking store in LA and the guys went to take the 2 other kids to Krate (SP) and we met up w/them near back at the house... I had my coffee fix so I'm happy, heheh! Then we relaxed and chilled at the house and grabbed a movie for the kids to watch my son Josh had a great time, slept pretty well on a air-bed at the foot of the bed and slept all night long.. Then we were both up around 8ish am b4 9 am actually.. We left around 12:30 today to start back and I am glad we did though.. I am bushed.. We got back into the valley and it was 93 degrees! I am like WHOA! So not ready for this.. We had pizza for dinner and ice-cream and now I am so ready to hit the sheets I am that exhasusted.. But had a great weekend.. It was nice and relaxing besides the drives..


Well, hope y'all had a great time this weekend and been safe.. Much love


Love & Light

A Fun Weekend Ahead..


Hola Loved Ones
Well what a week or two actually.. The past two weeks have just blown me away on how fat they came and gone.. Altho this week was a little slow but not as bad as useal. I'll start our week out on Sunday.. Sunday was nice, we had a great day actually.. My anxiety had come to full blown that day and so my DH had given me some St. Johns Wort to help calm me down and once it kicked in I was ok.. We did major shopping on Sunday I wanted to go to Wal-Mart for some pants (blue jeans) and a tank top.. Found those and pick up a few things but went to Wallgreens for the rest of it,since we were in the same parking lot and had to get DH's blood preasure meds to.. So I picked up shampoo, shaving cream for me, diapers for DS.. Then I wanted to go out to the Christian book store and check out some cd's and I bought 2 cds one is Michael English Prodical Comes Home and the book his autobiography of his life , and a cd a friend of mine Carrie told me about is Aaron Shust.. So I bought that and got a prayer book for DH to see if he can grow in that area of his life as well as me. Then we left there and went to Bath and Body where I purchased my g/f Tangee's daughter's birthday gifts and stuck in a special surprise.. Her birthday is the end of this month, a few days after our anniversary.. Some how I got to remember that..

Then we started home, I was bushed and pretty tired and anxious so we came home, and then I left for some alone time to myself and dropped off the movies and went to the store for some beer, we drink Coors Light its the best beer cuz it dont make us hot but helps us sleep.. So then we watched our show Big Brother and had a nice time.. Monday we got up and I knew I was going to have to take him to work due to him only working 2 hrs so I dropped him off, went to down-town to pay court fees 2 more to go, yeah! Then I went to McD's for lunch with my son Joshua and had to eat, and wanted a coffee drink but didnt have time to grab one so we decided to go pick up DH who was off by then and then we got our coffee drinks and did some running around for a little while then came home relaxed watched tv and talked..
Tuesday was fine, didnt need to take DH to work due to I had enough here to do, laundry and cleaning up.. Which I did.. Then watched my show on TV The Biggest Looser.. Wenesday came and I didnt take DH to work, so I cleaned some and didnt do alot had alot of anxiety again so I paced myself some.. Watched Ghost Hunters that was really good and watched Big Brother.. So now that comes to today. Today we got up around 9-10 am and the maintance had to fix my shower it went wonky on me yesterday and warned DH about it.. Then showered, dressed, took off to the dollar tree for some things and Walgreens then home to finish a quick load of wash and wash my new pants I got on Sunday.. I going to recheck our bag and make sure I got every thing,and put together the smaller bag in the morning to be sure thats all done, is half way done.. I'll load what I can tonight and in the AM we'll finish the rest of the loading..

So thats my week,I'll be out of town for 2 days, and will be back Sunday night some time not late but not early either.. So anyway hope y'all have a great week and weekend..Stay safe and in the Lords Arms.. Muah!

Love & Light

New Month..


Hola All

Well, here we are a new month already.. Wow! March went so slow, I guess due to 31 days and this month I believe has 31 days also.. Yup it does;) Our 7th anniversary is this month on the 21st, man 7 yrs ago I can remember my wedding exactly as it happened; and the snow the night before; what a time of my life, to find freedom and privacy! To my friends who know whats that is like to have some thing of your own to call your own, you'll know for sure..


This week just went right under my feet.. Its Thursday already and I am going huh already?! I am amazed how fast this week had gone.. I just did some laundry, went to get soda for this weekend, and I so wanted a coffee drink :( I'll get one soon though.. I ate a bite to eat, and just now folded laundry for the next few days, mostly towels I had to do, now just need to vacuum and do a light load of dishes.. My son J is watching Noggin on TV enjoying himself..


There's been alot of high emotions this week I Think its due to being on my period and Pmsing big time.. Mostly glad that its over now though and can look forward to seeing my g/f soon in 1 week, yeah! So happy about it, I can shout.. Havent seen her since Christmas.. So thats been about it here.. Just pray that I can keep loving my mother in law spite of her stupid comments she's been making lately makes me want to strangle her so bad.. I hate the fact that she can sit there and make comments and not know me at all.. I am my son's mother and she raised 2 kids already, so get over it, I am raising my son as I see fit.. Its hard to have family not interfier with life but yet they cant keep their mouth shut for long enough to confide in them.. Most families are like that though they all got to blab and open thier mouths to keep the world turning.. Well forget that in time for me..

The weather here is great, 72-75 degress and spring.. Even though my allegies have been bad, its been a good week with that. Just battled a headache the past 24 hrs.. UGH! Well, I am thinking of going and taking a quick nap before it gets to much later.. Hope all is well with everyone..


Love & Light

A Great Day...


Hola All
Well, today was a great day spite of not getting much sleep last night and its been trying with my son Josh.. I had an up-set stomach last night, and so I had to take some thing to sooth it over.. Took awhile to. Then this morning got up oh before 8 Am and checked out-side due to the extreem winds.. This morning was very cold! So I took a hot shower, dressed, did my hair and makeup; grandma came by to baby-sit my son Josh.. So we left around 9:45 to get to the court- house and meet up with the lawyer and fill out more paper work in case, then we waited about 2.5 hrs before we were called.. We were out of there by 1:30ish? We were nearly the last people called up.. So we left there, went to lunch at Sizzler oh so good stuff! We at the buffett food ,salads, chicken, taco's soup any thing, oh so good, but now I am hungry! We're gonna have orange chicken w/noodles tonight, I fed Josh and hope he'll go to sleep due to him being sooo grumpy today and whinny.. Drives me crazy of course I am close to PMSing and starting the monthly due but ugh!
So the buyer for my Chevy S10 called last night and I didnt return his call due to not sure if I could sell the truck and we called our lawyer and confirmed and they confirmed with us that we could so its now has a new home,<> I know I'll have a new car in 6mo to 1 yr so no problem but its hard to see a car I worked so hard for have a new home but it needed some one who can fix it and care for it better.. So that makes me happy.. Well thats about it here, just chilling and waiting for my son to rest I think he's having one of his crabby days.. OY! Well, I am gonna go eat and watch movies..
Love & Light

He is Risen! He is Risen Indeed!

Hola All


HE IS RISEN, HE IS RISEN INDEED! HALLUJAH!


Well with that as my first start of today, thought I'd post a little bit and then edit later if I can.. Today started out with a well intended heart for celebrating the Lord's Ressurection.. So I get up at 8 AM and half the night didnt sleep a wink tossed/turned half of it so I am very exhausted right now.. But never the less I am here posting.. So I get up head to the shower, and start my day , dress, do all the good stuff, get DH up and then begin to find a way around and go get gas for the car, a card for Grandpa and breakfast for us.. Since DS has eaten he's good to go.. So I barely get back b4 my MIL gets here and I'm rushing to eat, and get the last min stuff together, and then havaing to run back into the house to grab DS's cup and other little things and rush back out the door, and drive to Visalia.. So we get there, and course DS started screaming cuz he's not been in GGrandpas place but loves GUncle Rick's place.. Same format but flipped coursee I like the setup better at Rick's place than any other place, such a great place to.. The colors in their place is wonderful and so soothing.. I hope to find colors like that for my future home in 2 yrs or so... I pray! So we all did an Easter Egg hunt for DS who had a enourmous time then we ate lunch/dinner and all relaxed and visited awhile. Thats where, Uncle Rick and I had a very deep conversation.. It was helpful and a light turned on a few times.. So we had fun and swapped Emails to! Yes! Then we did the big birthday cake for Grandpa and gifts, we left around 7:30-8:00 and got home shortly after 9:00 pm.. I am bushed and ready for some rest.. So thats my day and pray y'all had a wonderful day.. And celebrated the Lords ressurection with freinds/family ..

HE IS RISEN!

Good Friday

Hello Freinds


Today is good Friday, we know what this means in the Christian world and what it holds for us as people who follow the Lord Jesus Christ.. Today was when he was cruxified and died for all sins of the wold.. Imagine the sins of the world? Who can hold such promise of freedom and life eternal? I sure cant, but yet our Lord knew he had to battle his human nature and what Father God wanted.. We know he battled that he didnt want to die, he wanted the cup passed from him to live but yet he surrendered total and completly now to me that was just the main battle, it wasnt hanaging on a cross to die, the true battle was surrendering totally to Father God's will and to die for all man kind.. Imgine trying to do what you would like to do but knowing God wanted it done a certain way.. Total surrender is what we must learn even in the darkest hour of our lives to give to Father God in total submission.. I know its hard to do but we must look to Jesus who had to battle his own emotions his own will to want to live but at the same time he's God to, so he had to for it was from the beginning of time that he'd come to die for all man kind so we can have that precious relationship with him for all eternity.. I do pray that when you look at your circumstances and your life that no matter what we would do what Jeuss did "Not my will, but your will Lord" let it be our prayer that we say that in all we do. . Amen?


Remember as we embark on Easter Sunday that we celebrate Jesus's life and his glorious ressrection that we must know and have faith that he's no longer dead but has RISEN.. Conqured the grave and death and freed old saints and new to come from Satan's grasp and find liberty and love, compassion and most of all, eternal life..


HE IS RISEN, HE IS RISEN INDEED!


Love & Light

Tiny Little Irks..

Hola All

I know, my blog is gonna be a little funny right now due to my tital of it but you'll see why in a minute cuz this totally discribes my week.. Lets see where shall I start? I think I'll Sunday.. Well, Sunday got here and DH wasnt feeling to hot, and decided to stay home all day , ok thats fine. So I went to the store, and did some quick grocery shopping.. So I got home put away the stuff, decided on dinner and then we watched our useal Sunday shows had a nice time.. DS was great all day to, no major problems.. Monday DH said it's my day to do what I wanted and this weekend we'll do some thing good for Josh.. So I'm all ok, so we went to Save-mart and got a GC ( Gift certificate) for my BIL (Brother in law) and a card.. I drove out so we could drop it off to my SIL and talk with her a few mins.. Then we browsed some stores that are new in that area, so much nicer now, its a mall but its outside where you walk in the fresh air.. So Dh and I went into a kitchen store and I got him a knife bag for his job.. Then got some ideas for him and his grandma.. Then I said I was hugry and so we needed to eat and we ate at Carls Jr. An OK lunch.. Then we went to Best Buy where we browsed some stores there, and had a nice time, I got a new game for my PS 3 . It a PS 2 game called Silent Hill Origins.. Such a cool game!


Then we left there, and got a coffee drink at Starbucks it was OK, not what I wanted.. Then we started our way home to start cleaning our bed room and I played my game an hour and helped DH clean it looks good but needs a little more work..Here we are to Tuesday.. Tuesday I got up and my eye Dr called well the place did,and my glasses are fixed and ready to pick up.. So I am like ok, so Dh and I had an argument but all is good, and so that day was spent doing not much.. Weds comes and I get up and shower/dress and leave real quick to get my glasses and guess what the eye Dr place was closed for lunch at 11:30 ! Good Lord knows how long that note was up there could have been at 11:00 am till 1:00 pm.. So again no car to go back, so now I have to maybe try and go in the morning.. So I was royally pissed off but oh well what can I do, my Irish side wanted to scream,cuss and just get plain mad.. I am surprised I wasnt really all that upset just annoyed that I wasted my time driving down there.. So I went to mail Easter Cards and got myself a coffee drink at 31flavors and came home.. Slipped my mind to pay our car insurance.. OY! So today is what Thursday. So today we get up and I wake up with a start like some thing neended to be done but wasnt sure, so I got up put sodas in the freezer, and got J up and checked our phones, plugged them in.. Then I was looking at my phone going whats this local number? So I told DH call it and find out, and it was the attorny's office saying we didnt pay the 1st installment on the court fees due last Friday and we were all going oh chit! So we find out we needed to go down there and pay it so we both head down, course DH called his work and said I'll be a lil late and we went down knowing again 1 car so we finally found the place thank God for cell phones! Then I go in and he's sitting in the car w/our son J, and waiting makeing sure the meeter didnt run out, and it only took me 10-15 mins tops.. So I paid that and we called the attorney back and told them we paid it and we'll be ready for next week.. Then this afternoon I get a call from them again an she was all you need to do the 2nd part of the class and I said yes I know, I did DH's yesterday and I dont have enough to pay for the 2nd class for myself till Monday but once I do that, I can do it and she was all oh ok just be sure you do, and I am like I will.. So I'll see if I can do it tomorrow or early Monday.. Court isnt till Thurs so I have time..


So thats been my week, just tiny little irks as my blog says.. Here we are on Easter Sunday soon on Sunday morning.. I hope we each celebrate the time and what the Lord has done in your life and heart this coming year.. May we always remember this Sunday as a speacial time to be with family/freinds and celebrate what Jesus did for us on the cross and his Ressurection.. Remember HE IS RISEN!


Well, off to get a few things done.. Hope y'all have a great weekend and blessings.. Much love

Blessed..

Hello Love Ones

Well this week has been nice, actually relaxing at the same time.. Nothing big going on here.. Just DH and I had a little conversation for 2 nights and all is going well now,hope it stays that way but we both have our ups/downs.. I just thank God that we can communicate our feelings like the day after the inital conversation, and all is going good.. Some times I think married couples have spats or bad conversations due to one being over-whelmed or just not hearing the other person.. I totally trying to understand my DH's point of view and told him so.. And I see him trying to see how my days go and my dealing with life and our son.. So now just hopeing all is good.. I cant wait for my glasses to get fixed and back in a week or so.. That'll be nice, cuz I am wearing my back-up glasses and I am ok with them but I need my new pair..


Lets see what else? Weather wise is great, we're in the 60-70's here and getting spring. We changed the clocks Sun moring b4 bed around 3 AM and I am still adjusting to the light change and temp changes.. I know my son is still adjusting to.. Took him a couple days.. But the only part I hate about srping even though it does bring new life and the grace of God.. Since I am mentioning God's grace, might as well share about his un-failing love and we are coming up on Easter in 2 weeks.. Let us remember God's love for us and that he died on the cross.. So always remember Jesus's love for you as we enter on Easter Sunday.. I'll post more about that as we get closer..


Well life is great, I am happy and pray that things stay calm for a few days and weeks.. Altho I think it will.. I see God's grace even when I am upset or things dont go right,but I do know God is working on us as a family meaning me, DH and DS.. So I am so greatful and thankful for that and again thankful for my freinds whom hear me complaine and upset over stuff but they always offer a ear and advice.. So thank you girls:) Love you ..!


Well off to enjoy today hope you do to:)


Love & Light

Busy Week..


Hola Loved Ones


Well, its been a very busy week, so sorry havent been able to keep up this week with all thats going on and posting about it. I'll start Sunday night, went to bed I guess an decent hour, couldnt sleep, tossed/turned woke up every hour, so on and so forth, got up at 5:40 and took a hot shower and dressed, got DS and DH up for the day.. DS was up already and ready to roar, so we all were ready to walk out the door at 7am.. Left got fuel for the car, and then drinks and headed up the mountain.. Got there, then DH started the yard work, mom and I and DS went to get the car washed, and a money order to pay rent, and me grab a coffee drink I so needed.. Then we went back to the house, I put DS down for nap time finally he laid down to sleep for 2.5 hrs or 3? Then mom and I washed the car, vacuumed it out she washed our coats that were in the trunk, wipped down the stuff and all that.. So now it looks brand-new car again..Smells wonderful..


Then DH took a shower after it was all done yard-work time.. We had turkey crosauns (SP)? for lunch was good stuff! Then we came home around 4ish and got the rent in on time.. We turned around to leave for the store, to pickup dinner items to make chinese food YUM! Cma home and I about crashed.. We ate and watched Tv and headed to bed around 2am.

Wednesday we got up so late, I crashed on Tuesday night and didnt wake till 9:30 am Weds, I was so bad.. So got up had to cancell DH's Dr. appt, then get ready to leave when Pest Control got here which was 11:30 am so we left grab lunch hang out, brose a store, took him to work, and here's the bulk of my day.. Started to go out to the Goodguys for my car to be lubed/oiled and to come to find out it wasnt where it was posted on the coupon but the one place I did reach (Finally) they took my coupon and said I needed to buy some tires.. So I'm all uh ok, how much is this gonna cost, and the guy ( was so nice) said how much you got and I said about $100 and he goes I can cut you a deal on 2 tires and I am like OK, then he comes back and goes that'll be 3 tires and I am ok, so whats more.. So I was able to get 3 tires for lil over $200 so Praise God.. I was sooo happy! So my car is done for awhile and just glad to see it in good condition.. Yes!


Wenesday night I got home aired out the house, ran to the store (Drove) and got some stuff there, came home tackled the cleaning, cleaned my cat's box and scrubbed it down, mopped the floors, clean the bathroom, commetted the tub/sink/toilet.. So now things are all fresh and smell great in the house, yeah! I took a hot shower, dressed in sweats and bathed DS and dressed him comfty and left to get DH from work, got home, put DS to bed, and started to put things back in place and eat and watch Ghost Hunters (New Season) had a good time, so I went to bed around 1 am due to about to drop anyway from exhaustion.. Slept till after 11 am this morning..

February 29 2008

Hola


Well, lets see this week has gone slow but fast, amazing how time flies.. Not much happening cept for today, we are "offically" filed for bankruptcy and it a huge relief on our shoulders, and we are fully paid up cept for the court fees which will get paid in 5 monthly installments no big really.. I am just happy that we can get through this and stop talking about it and the bills and what-not. We'll do the 2nd part of the class which I'll do due to my DH working and its a 4 hr class so I can do that in like 1 or 2 days.. So that'll be cool..

Lets see what else, here we are on the leap year day of 2008 and wonder whats more leap years we're gonna have? Makes one think and wonder before more.. Tomorrow is March 1st and a new month,and I pray a good month to. Then we can have a good summer and not worry about running the A/C and enjoy being cool with out much worry.. I'll enjoy that and finally maybe no talk of money issues and bills.. That'll be nice, but right now I need to focus more on my home how to make it more inviting, cuz I have some ideas but now that things financially are calming down, maybe I can bring my focus more on my home and start the process of getting rid of things that look shabby and buy new and make it more relaxing atmosphere.. I am definatly committed in doing just that and not on things that are only for a short time and b4 I need to do some thing else..


Well, just hope all is well with all of you, and just keep the faith, its hard even for me, but I know God is faithful and just to keep us on the right path and often lets us go off just to remind us of his glory and his greatness before we head back on and go man, I need to stay on this path.. Some times the path isnt clear like right now for DH and I but I know things are going to be good and finally OK.. Near celebrating 7 yrs together marriage wise, is a great step and good accomplishment.. Hope to keep the love strong in the Lord and in each other, and keep the communication open for us to keep learnig about each other and about our love for each other.. We've been through the refiners fire many times,and we've always came out on top and stronger together.. So if you want to know what the prayer request is; its just that, to keep going strong and not let trivial things get in the way of whats truly for our love and our marriage.. Money may make the world turn,but love should be so much stronger than any circumstances we find our-selves in..


May y'all have a great new start on a new month.. See you in March!


Love & Light

Change of Theme

Well, today's is a good deal. Last night I changed the theme on my blog, and much warmer colors and just more not so busy type blog which I like simple and consise.. The one thing though I do enjoy is some day to have a home in warm colors and just surround in love and abide in the warmth of things..


Today was a little stressful but not bad in all in all, even though we started to take care of things and hey I might even have a buyer for my Truck... So I'm happy with things in all in all..


Yes I am an adoptee from age 4yrs old but I was placed at 3mo old near 4mo old.. My parents were loving even though as I got older things started to be more and more.. I miss them so much they passed away 10 yrs ago this year.. My dad espically, I wish I had a scanner to post a picture of my dad. He served in WWII in the Navy, I'd love to have a picture of him as a young man in the Navy.. So now I am near the age of 33 and just enjoying life and my family..


I know I post alot about stress and money and my Husband but thats our life and what we do nearly every week.. So I hope y'all arent to bugged about our every day life, in a few years it will get interesting I am sure.. But for now, I share my life as much as I can to my readers, and share great moments.. Much love to you all...

Spring Cleaning..

Hola

Well, I got to admit we've spring cleaned tonight and it was major cleaning.. It started over the period of the weekend but last night and tonight have been major cleaning like scrubbing down walls, cleaning out cabnets, tossing stuff we dont need or use.. Whew!


Well let me start today out first and then we'll come back to that.. We got up around 8:30-9:00 this morning.. Then we started to get ready to leave at least we thought was 10am.. Well not exactly.. We left around finally 1:00 pm; or 12:30? Anyway the pest control got here and was about to start on our place.. So we were like ok good..Then we left to get lunch at Ihop; then went to the bank to cash DH's check, went to our bank and I put money in it; then we left to get air in the tires; stopped at H&R Block to get last years 2006 taxes (copy) then we left for Target on Clovis here.. Not the one up the street but the smaller one.. Had a great time there, we bought 3 movies and 1 game.. Yeah! The movies were Reservations, Harry Potter Goblet of Fire, (Had to replace that one) and Snow Buddies.. The final one was for my son J. He wanted that movie about dogs he loves dogs.. Esp dog movies and stuffed animals. O I forgot the game.. For my PS 3 its Jericho (SP?) will double check that.. I got it for $34.00 some thing instead of $49.00 It got marked down from $59 each step and found it for that price.. I about fell over.. So I was happy that was my valentine.. I'll get more charms, in a month or so.. No big..hehe


Then we got a coffee drink at 31 Flavors on the way home to open the windows to air out the place, and then left to stop at Trader Joes and Longs.. Where I nearly forgot dipars and soda so I got those items.. Then I called it quites there, I was tired and ready to come home to battle the house cleaning.. We worked on the place, got the kitchen/bathroom done.. I did the bathroom and Dh did the kitchen.. Both look great and clean and best of all, NO germs! Yeah! So that takes me to the first paragraph I wrote.. See above..


So now I am chilling after 3 loads of laundry, a hot bath to kill a headache with 2 advil to help and soak and did lady stuff shave legs and the such.. So I am happy all that I have to do is mail a gift to my g/f and then just relax mostly and chill.. I am glad for that..

So thats been my day and week so far.. I know I only post 1x a week but some times I can post more if alot is happening and this week a wee bit more going on..hehe!

Well, I pray y'all are rested and in the Lord.. Stay safe!


Love & Light
Laura
Oh PS..HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!

De-Bugging Again..

Aahhhhh! I had a whole post written and it ate it again! Arg..


Hola Again


Well lets see where should I start? I guess from last week.. I went to get some stuff at the store before my DH goes to work..I come home and the "Manager" comes up to me while checking cars for expired tags and asked me if my home was clean? And I was like "What"? So she goes well is your house clean? And I am like yea and? She went on to proceed that the "bugs" were gonig up into the vacant apartment upstairs.. And I SO wanted to say well thats not my fault, now is it? I guess one of the "Maintance" came in to do routine checks on stuff like filters and yada yada,you get my drift well there was a "Little" bit of cheerio's on the floor and previous nights dishes in the sink, but nothing big, I mean we eat and relax and do the dishes in the AM.. Well I guess the "mainance" told the manager that our house was "Dirty" according to him.. Well hello I have a 2 yr old son and he does make a mess when he eats, he's still learning to eat with a spoon/fork and master it.. I do sweep up the food after he eats but some times I do get busy with other things such as laundry or I do dishes things like this not that I'm careless on my home.


So I am livid .. When we paid rent on the 1st, the "manager" asked my DH if our house was clean and DH goes yes, and she goes well if its not cleaned up we'll ask you to move..I was like WTF?! O I was so angry.. She thinks that we're the cause of the bug problem.. No we arent the cause of any thing.. We've told them that there were bugs since last August.. Did they do much about it ? NO.. We've set off 3 bombs, we've sprayed we've cleaned we did every thing, vacuumed up old eggs, swept up shedded wings off the bugs.. I mean we're constantly cleaning some thing up.. Last night my DH cleaned behind the fridge, it was disgusting.. I sweep by the fridge every other day due to crap all over my floor.. So he got behind the fridge and stared cleaning and mopped the wall, and sprayed behind there.. I mean we cant un-plug a fridge or not use a stove for cooking to prevent bugs.. Seems the manager dont see that the apartments are "Infested" majorly.. I keep the place clean to the best of my ability and still no avail on getting rid of bugs..


So I am so fed up but no money to move right now, we've got to do some stuff about our financial stuff out of the way first.. We're pretty close really.. So just gonna do that real soon in fact.. But I cant take the "managers threats" and think its all us.. I am going to talk to the Pest Control and tell him that its NOT our fault there's bugs, its the Manager's fault for not keeping up or his company's fault for not coming out when they said they were.. So I am a little fed up..


Other than that, not much is happening.. DH is fighting a cold and we're going to his mom's for a few hours tomorrow and then on Tues we'll go get his check,cash it and put some of it in the bank and then from there I dont know,due to them coming at 10am to spray we have to be out of the house for at least 4 1/2 hrs before we can re-enter the place and start putting things away again.. So as y'all can see its just like I want to scaream..! AHH!!!!!!!!!!!!


Anyway thats been our week here, I know I dont post often not every day due to such high volume of stuff I'm doing .. I did 3 loads of wash tonight and still got towels to wash ( I just did wash on Tues) of last week.. Seems every 4 days or so there's more to do.. *Sigh*


Anywho, be blessed and rested ..

Love & Light

Super-Bowl Sunday...

Hola All. Well where shall I begin? Today the Giants won and boy what a game! I was so impressed by the Giants team.. So we had a semi good day .. The game topped it off.. The day started off late.. I wont say what time we got up :-X but it was late.. I felt so bad to.. Wonder why? Well I did finish the book by Nicolus Sparks The Choice and enjoyed the book emenslly. So it was a good evening.. So happy. Today my sweet husband got a call from his mom and she basically chewed him out again over not "helping" his sister and such but honestly his sister is 27 yrs old and can ask for help if she needs it honestly.. She didnt help us move when we moved from up to down stairs.. So I dont know.. Anyway thats been our day.. Talk to my g/f in via IM and then left to get food at the store and then came home battled the rain and then settled to eat and be happy with the game.. So its been a quiet evening and so throughly enjoyed it so much.. Glad that Dh and I had a great day together.. All I got to do now is make an Dr. Appt w/my GYN and see if I'm all set to get pregnant again.. Then talk to her about some things I can do to keep myself level and such or a referals.. So we'll see.. Anyway just thought I'd post .. God bless y'all very much...

Stressed and Axiety..

Hola Loved Ones..


Well, as you can see from my post, yes I am stressed and axious on stuff.. Really a long story today.. When we got up we found out my mom in law was taken by ambulance to a local hospital down here so far no news on whats going on and its getting into evening.. I am tempted to call but I hate to call and no news on whats up, so I learn to sit and wait.. My mom in law cant keep things down, meds, food I guess.. She's on pain meds for her arm, shoulder.. I am sure my sis in law is there at the hospital cuz her job is close by and can get there in two mins flat.. For me it'll take a good twenty mins in good traffic or not.. I guess no new is good news.. So Dh went to work and DS took a nap and I relaxed as much as I can..


The 2nd part of the axiety is this.. My apartments manager I guess was told we still have bugs, well the problem is I clean every day and we still have them. So DH take the rent money over to the office and she was all saying to him , you need to keep your place clean, blah blah blah and or we'll ask you to move.. Now mind you, I am pretty anal on cleaning and I have a husband who's such a lazy ass who dont do shit unless I beg him to..

So we talked and I was near tears due to the stress level gone up and just havent dealt with it to well.. See the maintance came in to do their thing check our apt and for mold, mildew (thinks I'm allergic to) and change filters and yada yada.. Well, I guess they told her (the manager) and so she told DH.. Now If I had gone in there, I would have gone on the deep end and told her exactly what I thought and that I do clean, we have a child, things are gonna be a lil messy but not extreem.. So DH and I talked and he agreed to start getting up off his ass and help. I'd like to see that more often than not.. Honsetly I dont know what to say or do. I've begged him for montsh to help me and he will for a day and not do a damn thing for weeks.. He even said that also.. So he knows I mean business when it comes to OUR home not just ME and the home..


Anyway thats my day.. I am just mentally tired, emotionally drained and just needing some space.. UGH.. LIFE! O well God is in control and I gotta give it to him or I'll go completely nuts..

Love & Light
Laura
