Sunday

Good Sunday Morning my fellow Hoosier Losers.  Up and at em at my regular time today, I don't know why they throw me a curve ball once in awhile and have me come in later like they did yesterday, it just throws me all off.  Guess they want to make sure I am on my toes lol.  I don't want to be awake today so I am splurging and having a cup of "real" coffee.  I rarely do that because it gives me the shakes and when the caffine wears off I get really tired. 

Peace and Love to you all.
Jeannie

Good morning all!  I am up and moving even if it is slow.  LOL.  I had a great visit with friends last night and really enjoyed the company.  We had a great day yesterday and really needed the change of pace.

I am planning to go to church this morning and then I have some housework and things to do around here before getting back to work on this computer to get all my files put back on it.  I have to get my resume on it again too.  So, I guess I will be playing nerd this afternoon.  woohoo!

I hope you all have a wonderful day and a fabulous week!

Huge hugs,
Tracy

I will be showering for church soon and then have to work from 4-9, my sister in law has been with me for a week, she is going home. Scott and Melissa put my pool in yesterday.. it should be warm enough to swim in in about a wek.. it is about 4'xa5 " around.. enough to get backed and cool off at the same time!!

Linda Kay, sign me up! I love a good cool off in a pool anyday!

Good morning all...

It felt good to get out of the house yesterday. We started our day by getting gas & a car wash. So..my black beauty is now shiney again. lol. Then we went to Washington Square mall. I am horrible at doing my own darn eyebrows so I went there to get them waxed. Bill wanted his beard trimmed too so we went to Master Cuts first. It turns out that they do eyebrow waxing too so I got that done and I got my hair cut (which was also on my 'to do' list). I told the girl that I wanted my hair off my ears & neck, shorter on top and that she was free to use her own creativity. I love how it turned out. I'll try to take a pic of it today  for my avatar. The only problem is that she cut out all the dye. So...I'm thinking about going el natural for a few weeks and see how much gray my head's accumlated. It is weird to look in the mirror and see this very dark brown haired lady looking back at me! I really should keep it this way long enough for my kids to see it since Tiffany was 2 when I first went red.

We also ran to KMart and I got the plants & potting soil for my topsy turvies. I know Bill will be glad when I get the turvies out of the back room. He keep****ting the stands with his toes. Ouch! I'm going to try to get them done today but I also have to grocery shop and Bill & I need to run to WalMart. So..just depends on the time.

We had dinner with a friend of ours..Denise. She came back to the house afterwards and ended up waiting the storms out. So..this little girl stayed up way past her bedtime last night.

So...I'm up & at 'em!

You all have a good day!

Hi all. How are you today? I'm making it. I have been having a couple of really rough days. Thinking about Maggie. Last night I kept dreaming about her being gone. I was screaming, throwing things, generally having a breakdown fit. I think maybe I wish I could let loose like that IRL. Yesterday, we were eating lunch in the mall food court on my lunch break from Sears. Mike and Mikey joined me. There was a little girl in line at Subway with her family. The line was so long they were  back by our table. Looking at her from the back, her hair was the exact color of Maggie's. Mike and I just looked at each other and held hands.

I started thinking yesterday, I wonder how much it would cost to reverse my tubal ligation. I'm so confused though. Part of me knows if I got preggers and it was a boy I would be disappointed with him. So I know if I want to have another baby at some point, now's not the right time. I am proud that I could say to any of my kids they were wanted, and I never want to not be able to say that to a child of mine.

Today is my 12th wedding anniversary. Last night we went out to dinner at Cracker Barrell, and then to a tattoo shop. I picked out the tat I'm getting. It's a Tinkerbell with Maggie's name underneath. I have an appointment for Friday.

  Good evening Sunday! I hate sundays.  I always have. I woke up in a bit of a funk. I dunno why.  My back is hurting from helping move a friends this weekend.  My dog is acting crazy b/c she has been sick.  WE ARE A MESS!  Enough of the whining....

  Sherri-Isn't a good haircut GREAT?  I use to have really thick hair (before LUPUS) and I would often let them do their own thing.  Got some great styles that way.  Now I freak out when I have to get it cut b/c it is so damn thin.  I myself am getting quite gray.  I have a streak on one side that when I pull back my hair is very noticable.  Of course, I don't care if it is gray as long as there is HAIR.  I just don't want to be bald.

Linda--I can't imagine your pain.  I wasn't able to make it to the fundraiser for Maggie but think of you often. There is no reason you CAN"T throw a fit IRL. I think you are more than entitled to it.  I lost my mother 4 years ago.  I know it is nothing like losing a child.  However, it had been a LONG illness and a lot of stress.  I had just gone into business mode to get through it all and continued to do that through her funeral and all the paperwork after.  Finally, one day I just FREAKED out. I mean, fell on the ground screaming and crying.  Uncontrollable....I have to say I felt better after.  I don't know if it was the right thing to do....but with me it was involuntary.  It felt good to have that release.  You have a right to the feelings you have and if it means you need to scream a little....I think you should.  While I try not to question the things that happen in this life, I believe we are entitled  to feeling like things are UNFAIR.  I can't think of anything more unfair then losing your Maggie.
