Wow.... where the hec do I start ... what day is this ??? Whew ... this last week has gone by so fast and I literally have had no time to do much of anything ... or so it seems anyway.
So let's see ... I am going to do a weeks highlight word rundown ... I was going to do a "thought" blog, but today I actually think it would be more like 10 QUAFTILLION things I would have to spew your way ... and I just don't have time.
Ok ... are you ready ? Here goes.
Auction, Bats, Baseball, Balloons, whining, cats,shopping, trampolines, field, yard work, groceries, lawn mowers, doctors, money, men, thyroid, laundry, gas, m&m's, phones, bra's, clothes, shoes, Hope, fish, garage, mothers day, ring, sick, sore, weedwacker, candy, crawling, Wii, sleepy, bus drivers, movies, pictures, trees, paint, thoughts .... OMG .... I probably could think of more... but let me talk about some of these. lol.
We finally got our Stimulus check thingy and our tax return ... so I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off doing things here, trying to pay bills and shop - you know that deal. We got a nice bit back, but it still wasn't enough to pay everything we needed to and do some things we needed to with it - so call me dumb, but we just went crazy with some ..... ahhh, retail therapy ... sure makes you feel a little better if only for a bit. :O)
I have been shopping for kids summer clothes and shoes, we bought the kids some nice things and even got them a trampoline too.
My hubby bought Guitar Hero for himself for our Wii and Mario Cart. We also got a weedwacker to which I have been out in the yard weedwacking everything that even might have a thought of being in my way. We also got a lawnmower .. not the riding mower as we so despretley need, but a cheap push one. It willl work for now. Jordan used it already - we finally are getting better weather, but he ran over my box controlling my outside lights ... so now I have to replace that ! Geeze - what a dooooofus !
Speaking of mowers ... I went onliine Saturday and I typed in "Riding lawn mowers for sale in the Tomah, WI area" .... and it lists a bunch of Auctions.... so I click on one and it says they have a riding mower ... but it was spooky. The Auction was at Hope's Grandparents house. Yes, THAT Hope. (for those that don't know) Hope was my daughter Brittany's best friend, she was with her grandparents and sister Erin last October and they all died of carbon Monoxide poisoning while at a horse competition for thier Clydesdales.
Anyway - the auction was yesterday, Brittany wanted to go - so I let her stay home from school and we went. Well - for a minute. they had so much there - everything of the grandparents and the girls ... once they started the auction - Brittany broke down in tears, it is still hard for her ... she was pretty uncomfortable so we left. It would have been nice to get the riding lawn mower, but I wasn't going to stay if it made Brittany uncomfortable. I must admit though, once I saw her crying, I started to as well. It was a sad thing. How rough it is to watch EVERY possession they had go away. I can't imagine.
After that I went to the doctors appointment that I had. Basically he thinks I am having a thyriod problem now. UGH ! My hair has been falling out, my periods are all screwed up and my nails all brittle -weird things like that.... so I have to go in on Friday for an ultrasound of my thyroid and to get my IVIG treatment. Oh brother.
Um, lets see - what else ... um, my kids are being soo super cranky and whiny the last few days - they are driving me insane. I don't know if they are getting sick or what, but it had better stop. UMMMMMMMM, There was a bat in my livingroom at the end of last week, yes, that is what I said... A BAT ! I do have pictures - but no time. We were sitting there watching TV and then all the sudden something swooses into the room ... and dumb ass me was thinking - hmmm, that is weird, why is there a bird in my house ... then my hubby screams out BAT ! The room errupts in chaos and Jordan hit the floor and me and the girls all went running and screaming ! Anyway - the guys killed it and put it in the trash. Um, yuk - gross. It has happened before just once, but when we gutted the place. I don't know where it came in ... looks like THE GUYS got something to do now.
Hmmm, what else, - Oh, bus Driver - finally got somewhere with that - as of right now he is on probabtion and has one last chance before they fire him. I honestly want him gone now, but I am sure he will be soon.
My son Jordan had his iPod stolen at school. - out of his gym locker, out of his jeans pocket - I am sooooooooooooooo infuriated by it !!!! I cannot even begin to tell you !
AND ?? I am about so ticked off at both Brittany and Jordan because thier faces are in thier phones pretty much 75- 80 % of the time anymore. It is sooooooo aggrevating !!!! You try to talk to them - and they are in like another world ! UGH !
Well, I am about out of time I have to run again today. OHH, one more thing - remember those cats we got. WOW - what a mistake that was !!! They will NOT friggin go pee in the litter ! I have had to wash every last thing in this house. They have peed on Hann's and Cameron's blankets .... so as of right now - they are free to a good home. They are in my basement and sorry, but I cannot deal with cats peeing on my stuff, so that is where they will stay until I find a place to give them too. Oh well ..... Smokey Bones won't be sad ... hes still remains king to us ! lol.
Ok - so dang it - out the door I go AGAIN ! I have missed so many blogs and I am sorry htta I haven't been maiking it around, I will tho - as soon as it quiets here.
Have a good Tuesday all !
TAMMIE
(OHHHH, I so forgot to say - Gracie is up on all fours now !!! It won't be long ...... OMG - I WILL NEVER be able to SIT AGAIN !!!!!!!
Goodness! You've been busy!
ReplyDeleteWhew, I'm tired now. lol I'm just glad to know your busy and okay. We haven't got our check yet but it's pretty much spent on catching up on things too. YUCK about the cats. I have dealt with evil ones too that don't want to go where there suppose to. I can't stand that. :/
ReplyDeleteDo you know the bus drivers name? Maybe search the sexual predator website and make sure he's not listed. You never know with what he's done on the bus. I cannot believe they haven't fired him. It will take something bad happening to a kid and then they will.
Try and get some rest!!!
My goodness girl!!
ReplyDeleteOk...weird and spooky that you should type in the mower thing and see an auction that so closely is something you can relate to. Very odd. Big hugs for Brit, I can't imagine.
And retail therapy is exactly what the stimulus check was for! Enjoy it!!
My thyroid got all out of whack and now I'm on pills for it. I didn't have the ultrasound but I did have a biopsy...yea...stick a needle in your throat, fun! Hopefully they'll get you diagnosed quickly.
HOLY MOLY!! You are one busy woman.
ReplyDeleteGracie on all fours? Yea, watch out!! :)
well, with Gracie crawling, there is one good thing coming out of that....she's not going to insist on you holding her all the time! :)
ReplyDeletebusy, busy, busy!!! I'm exhausted just reading all that, and I have no idea what to comment on....
ok, that sucks about Jordan's iPod. Totally. :(
Jordan and Brittany are exactly the reason why my boys won't be getting cell phones anytime soon, if ever, and if they do eventually get ones, they will be pre-paid ones with not very many minutes!
I guess if it is thyroid, at least you can get on something to fix it. My sister in law had thyroid problems, and that is why she miscarried twice last year, and she gained 40 pounds in one year! It accounted for quite a few things, including her mood swings and depression--(probably accounts for yours as well). Not to wish ill on you, but hopefully that IS it, and they can get you on some medicine! :)
bad kitties! I'd totally be getting rid of those cats. No way could I deal with that. It was horrible when Steelyx got sick, because he started doing that as well. He had a bad urinary tract infection, so he couldn't help himself. He's better now, and going in the litter box likes he's supposed to.
In the past, we've had to surrender two cats because they kept peeing on our stuff.
ReplyDeleteRecently, I was told that if you get a better dry cat food (for us, IAMS, but it's damn expensive) it helps with the urinary tract issues. Since we changed, the one cat that kept pushing the hand towel into the sink and peeing on it hasn't done that once.
Of course, in light of financial situations, you may be best off getting rid of the cats. If my house was a dictatorship, that's what would happen...but alas, it's not.
Yikes, I don't know where to begin. Guess all I can say is, sit down, relax....
ReplyDeleteECKKK! The Bat thingy wow! Relax! count to ten! breathe,and just sit! My girl you have been busy! Big hugs to you!
ReplyDeleteOne word... dang. You've got a 7 man circus all your own around there. I hope life settles down soon.
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy~the bat thing sounds kind of freaky!
ReplyDeletewow I am tired just from reading your blog...LOL....I am glad your doing well.
ReplyDeleteHooray for Gracie. Get ready to start chasing her all day.
ReplyDeleteaww way to go Gracie! Next she's be flying across the floor! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you've been really but got some really good things.
The bat story reminds me of the bat we had in our house one time. My dad and I had to get it out while my sister and mom hid in their rooms lol
Hope you have a nice evening!
Oh she's on the go that Gracie! LOL OH my gos girl you have been busy as ever!!! Ugh on the cats and I hate that smell and it's awfull!! Glad you got your Stimulus check I am still waiting on mine. We had to do an ammended return and they owed us more and sent it in the form of a check so that's how were getting the Stimulus. It sure goes as soon as you get it. Oh My Ally is the same way about her phone always texting or talking on it. It's nuts!! It's nice to see a blog from you! Hugs
