I am so here two days in a row peeps! Can you believe it? I know it is totally late... but I am here. So here's a quicky list of a couple of things that we will be discussing over the next couple of posts.
-I got fired from my job. Yeah. Way to go Ryan! It happened back in April... but to be honest? I havent looked back and missed a thing yet. Was I pissed, angry and upset when it happened? Sure. I am HUMAN, people! But thus far? Best thing ever.
- I chopped all my hair off. I'm not talking a little bit shorter than before... the hair is GONE. Yes, ladies and gentleman... pictures WILL come!!
- My little sweetheart Bubba is about 85% potty trained!! Well, maybe more like 75% but I am a little biased... The only time she wears diapers is at night. And those are normally dry in the morning!! (So, we really COULD say like 90% potty trained right?)
- 80 pounds. Need I say more?
Catch you guys later... I have to head to bed! I have a job interview in the morning... AT SEVEN AM! Can you believe that??? Actually... I know you guys will want to hear all about it. :)
Miss you all!

Long time no Blog. It feels weird sitting here... its been quite awhile, eh? I've been pacing in front of my computer for a couple of days hoping that when I finally sat down to post something, it would be like riding a bike... you never forget how to.
Of course I have novels of stuff to say... today I just wanted to say "Hey. I miss you all. After a six month hiatus, I took THIS step. I actually freaking posted something! Have a great day and see you tomorrow."

All week long I have sat down at my computer and "Signed in" to Blogger with every intention to post but I sit here. And sit here.
And sit here some more...
With nothing to say.
Cause once upon a time I was taught that if you dont have anything nice to say, then you dont have anything to say at all.
When I started blogging I promised myself that I would only blog about happy things. Nice things. Fun things. That there wouldnt be any negativity in what I shared with others. I mean there is the ranting and raving on a normal basis but seriously? That is all surface stuff.
Well. Lets fast forward to were I am now.
I am stuck.
I have so much that I want to share because I want to get it off my chest. But really?
Who would want to hear it?
I want to post happy things about how freaking adorable my daughter is and all the cute things she does every day.
But I cant move past how annoyed, frustrated and DISGUSTED I am with my husband right now.
Or how all I want to do is quit my job because I cant stand how condescending and backstabbing all the bitches I work with are.
Or how terrified I am about mortality and my medical condition.
Or if one of my vehicles breaks down on more time I am going to have a nervous breakdown and beat the thing to DEATH with my bare hands.
Jesus Christ. I cant believe I just said all that. How in the HELL did we think when we were 18 that life was going to be BETTER? HA. Like, all we had to do was move out and everything was going to be FABULOUS?
I mean, dont worry folks, I am MUCH more mature that what you are probably thinking right now. I knew at 18 years old and ONE DAY it wasnt going to be fabulous but damn, I was kinda hoping EVENTUALLY it would get better.
Oy vay. I think it time for bed. Hopefully you made it to the end of this post... and thanks for listening.

OMG yes this is a NEW post!

I am pretty sure that everyone was beginning to think that I was never coming back... hell... I was beginning to think that I was never going to BE ABLE to come back. Blogging among a hundred other things that I would rather be doing in life has been put on the back burner lately. Such is life though... and here I am now. So lets not be all depressed about it... Let me catch you up on what is going on!!
As of October 17th I am up to 51 lbs lost. I am just a little - ONE POUND - over half way to my goal. YAHOO! It has been a very hard, chocolate free, french fry free road but I FINALLY feel just this month the full affects of my diet and what exactly 51 pounds lost really means.
Stats when I started vs. Current
Pant Size: 22 vs. 16
Shirt Size: 2X vs. L
Bra Size: 42DD vs. 38D
And I have chopped off 14 - 16 total inches of my hair.
 My engagement and wedding rings dont even fit anymore. I have to wear my engagement ring on my left hand index finger and my wedding ring on my right hand ring finger. My husband is like, "Guess I know what to get you for Christmas."
Which would normally be an awesome thing for a girl to hear but it kinda makes me sad. My rings arent re-sizeable. But nothing to fret over now... I want to wait until I am at my goal weight and figure out what to do about rings then.
In other news... My little Bubba started daycare about 3 weeks ago. DAYCARE! Did you hear me?! DAYCARE! Can I get a woot! woot! My husband has been staying home with her and doing online classes since I went back to work when she was 7 months old. He is currently in his last semester of school and will need to start looking for a job in his field. We knew Bubba would need to start daycare within the next couple months but quite frankly... IT WAS TIME. Why wait any longer?
She took to daycare so well. I was the one that cried all day. I was the one that called and checked up on HER and had the daycare lady asking ME if I was ok. The first morning of daycare Bubba asked me if she could take her Clifford dog and I said absolutely and she wanted a picture with her AND Clifford.
 When I asked her if I could get a picture of just her... she THREW Clifford and said WHY NOT?! Stinker.
 Then there was the matter of the little guy that was born a couple weeks early. My middle sister gave birth to a beautiful little boy that we got to go visit and Bubba is VERY PROUD to have a cousin. She kept referring to him as "Him in there sleeping." So I am finally an AUNTIE! YAHOO!
And last but not least... Bubba had her first fishing trip. We went with one of my girlfriends from work and had a wonderful afternoon out on the river. There wasnt a cloud in the sky and hardly any wind. Bubba thought it was the COOLEST thing ever. For some reason I didnt think to grab the camera when she kissed the fish that Girlfriend caught but I am sure that we will do it again!
I know that this has been a "quickie" of an update but I atleast wanted to let you guys know that I am still alive and that I am working on a comeback. Hopefully I will have more time now that my evenings are more freed up with the little one in daycare and asleep my 8.
I cant wait to catch up on everyone elses blogs and I thank you for stopping by and not forgetting about me!

These last few weeks have completed changed who I am as a person... completely transforming who I am in every aspect of my role on this planet. I feel like I have been STUCK on an emotional and mental rollercoaster ride from hell.
Cause damn... These past few weeks? SSSShhhhhhuuuuuu...
When my friend called me to tell me her son had passed, I fell to pieces. I couldnt wrap my mind around the thought that something so awful, something so terrible, something so horrible could happen like that. So sudden. I ran to her side. And I had no idea what to do. What to be for her. So I just was. I was at her side as much as I could be. And even though it was the hardest thing I have ever had to do... anytime she asks me to be there. I will be. Cause my God... thats the only thing I can do.
The following week I had two great aunts pass away. One on my Dad's side of the family and one on my Mom's side of the family. Both completely special and dear to me in their own unique ways. Both lived full and happy lives totally devoted to their families. Their passings both came on suddenly and hit me hard. My Aunt Wandas passing (My Moms - Dads - sister... you with me?) made me feel like I was losing my Grandpa all over again. Mandacakes explained it very well in her beautiful post dedicated to Aunt Wanda titled With Love and Sorrow.
The night before My Aunts funeral I went to Madison to pick up my sister. We joined my parents the next day and it was good for all of us to be together. My Aunts funeral was beautiful, filled with laughter and stories... just the way she would have wanted it.
There are many other stories and events throughout the past two... almost three weeks that I am sure will come over the next couple weeks that have tested every aspect of my sanity (cause there are some gooood and entertaining stories about work! GRRRR!) but I wanted to at least share some of what has been going on. The last couple of days have been great to be honest though. Thank goodness there is good stuff to report too! One of my sisters is expecting and her baby shower was this weekend and my daughter turns three on Monday... my little baby is going to be THREE. THREE!
THREE!! Did you hear me?
Goodness. My Moms birthday is next Wednesday so we had a combination DAUGHTER-slash-MOM birthday WHOPPER of a party on Saturday! Pictures will definitely be coming soon.
I have missed everyone and hope to hop back into Blogland soon. Thank you to everyone for your kind words and emails over the last couple days. They have meant ALOT to me.

 I am taking some lines from another posts I did last year because I feel that I cant put some the these words any better than I did then.
Not a day goes by that I actually even start to believe for a split second that time heals a broken heart. Not one bit.
On July 27, 2005 my grandmother without any warning passed away, on her way out the door to a doctors appointment. Just 4 days after seeing Bubba walk for the first time.
When I see monarch butterfly I always think of my grandma. There was no tie to her and this butterfly in the real world, the day of her funeral one followed me around. In moments when I find it unbearable to think of her without breaking into tears, I see one. And I think of her. And it comforts me.
At my darkest times. I see one.
At my happiest times. I see one.
There always seems to be one flying around... right when I need it. And I know beyond a shadow of a doubt, it is her... making sure that I am okay.
I love you grandma. Always and forever. Until the end of time. Until I can join you again and we can laugh over coffee and catch up on all the soaps... oh, and bake some cookies!

My concept of "Normal" has changed.
|

Sunday, July 22, 2007
|
The days have just been flying by. I have started this annoying habit of forgetting what day it is all together and saying things like, "Have a great weekend!" on a Tuesday or "Arent you so glad it is Friday?!" on Sunday. My husband just shakes his head and I am more than 100% sure that he is thinking, "Thats my wife! Cant remember what day it is. But at least she remembers to wear pants in public and 9.7 out of 10 times has on a bra!"
Oy vay.
And speaking of meds!... I am into week 3 of yet another medication my doctors in Madison thought would be a good idea to try. My sister went with me at the beginning of July, just days after coming home from Austria, to met all of the doctors that had promised her to keep me alive. (And really, I dont mean to make it sound like the doctors were forcing anything on me... I was still having a lot of migraines and problems that lead them to believe the next step was to be on a daily migraine preventative.)
This particular medicine has sent me on quite a ride. It is one of those that you cant just jump into. You have to gradually work your way up to a full dose. And due to my bodies lack of tolerance to anything drug related (yes, I was a very cheap date back in the day... 3 beers... I AM DRUNK!) I will not even be on the full dose once I reach what my "full dose" will be. By the way... just because I am was a cheap date... didnt mean I was easy.
Just wanted to make that clear.
When the Neurologist was running through the 5 options I had for medications, I was quite stunned at my choices.
1. Dont get pregnant. Possibility of SEVERE BIRTH DEFECTS. Uhm... ok. HELL NO.
2. Slurred speech. Blurred vision. Slower thought process and possible temporary loss of short term memory. Well, jesus Christ... HELL THE F NO! I have some of those problems already... lets not make them WORSE!
3. Its actually an antidepressant. Could make you really tired. Possible weight gain. YIKES! Husband would probably like the antidepressant part but WEIGHT! GAIN! PLEASE NO!
4. You wont sweat. You will have dry mouth. You will need to make sure and stay hydrated. Drink lots of water. And may lose weight. I'm sorry. What was that last thing again? Cause I thought you said lose weight?
5. This one will lower your blood pressure a little. So you will have to be careful standing quickly or lifting anything heavy. Dont want you passing out. Oh, good thing I dont have a TODDLER or anything doctor.
So, you can imagine which one I chose. HELLO! losing some weight!! When he left the room to get his prescription pad other than making google eyes at my neurologist and dry humping the air (okay, so he is darn sexy!) my sister was like, can I have a messed up brain too, you bitch?!
Okay, so la-dee-dah-dee-da lucky me. Lets fast forward a couple weeks and set a couple things straight. There were a few things that my sexy neurologist DIDNT inform me. A couple days into my new weight lose wonder drug... I mean... migraine preventative, I noticed that I was constantly thirsty. And I am not just talking a little sip here and there. I am talking DOWNING AN ENTIRE 20 oz. bottle of water in one breath. ONE BREATH! Like 10 of those a day. Which ok. I need to drink water.
But I think I have tripled my toilet paper budget for the month. I am scared to see my water bill.
My arms and legs easily go numb. And are always tingly. I didnt think too much of it but once I hit the second week of my medication and my increased dose... and I was sitting at work, doing my normal everyday things when my face went numb. Okay. Freaky. I got out my nuerologists number. Then it felt like BUGS were crawling all over my face! OMG! It freaked me the HELL OUT! So I called him up. Finally got through... and his response?
Oh yeah, thats normal. Its a side effect. Lets keep you at this dose another week. Drink a lot more water. And try and take in more potassium in your diet.
Normal?! BUGS CRAWLING ALL OVER YOUR FACE IS NORMAL?!
Oh, good. Cause damn. I felt a little crazy there...
The more I started looking into this medication, I started seeing that DAMN! there are a lot of side effects that are pretty freaky.
More common side effects may include: abdominal pain, abnormal coordination, abnormal vision, agitation, anxiety, hallucinations, headache, hearing difficulties, hot flushes, hyperactivity, impotence, increased sweating, involuntary muscle movement, irritable bladder, joint pain, kidney stones, loss of balance, loss of consciousness, low sex drive, mood swings, confusion, constipation, depression, difficulty with concentration, difficulty with memory, dizziness, menstrual problems, mood problems, nausea, nervousness, muscle ache, muscle tension, muscle weakness, nosebleeds, painful or difficult urination, personality problems, appetite loss, back pain, breast pain, chest pain, double vision, drowsiness, fatigue, flu-like symptoms, indigestion, language problems, leg pain, loss of coordination, nose inflammation, rash, sinusitis, slowing of movements, sore throat, speech problems, tingling or burning sensations, tremors, weakness, weight loss.
Long list huh? I am not saying that I have all of them. But I have noticed some of them. Slighty. And I cant expect everything to be trumpets and rainbows when taking medicine but at a couple points over the last few weeks I felt a little "off" to say the least. (Like, I dont want to go into crazy detail or anything either but I had my freaking period TWICE in the last 3 weeks as well. NOT COOL!)
However, on a happier note, I had another neurology appointment just a couple days ago with a doctor who is much closer to home. YEAH! This appointment was more of a "Hi. Nice to meet you. We know everything that is wrong, but I dont like driving so far away. Wanna take a look inside my crazy head and give me prescriptions whenever I need them? Oh, and can I call you when weird stuff happens to me. Like it feels like I have bugs crawling all over my face? Thanks."
And at that appointment... when I stepped on the scale... I AM UP TO 29 lbs. LOST!!! Yahoo! I can probably attribute quite a bit of that to my haircut. LOL. Cause I did get quite a bit chopped off. Yeah, that's it... not like all the damn celery, cucumber and carrots I eat had ANYTHING to do with it!
Speaking of haircut... Nailgirl had asked me a couple weeks ago, "Did you straighten your hair?? Cuz I so thought that it was curly like mine." and I thought I would comment back on that! Yeah, I have naturally curly hair, but of course, I have always wanted STRAIGHT! HAIR! So when I first got it cut, I wanted to STRAIGHTEN! it the moment I got home. And when I did, while I liked it... I didnt like it as much as I thought I would.
So I pretty much wear my hair like this all the time!
 And you know, there is something funny about going into the bathroom, with your camera to take pictures of yourself... It almost seems "dirty." |

Things have been so crazy around my house lately (ie. Bubba being so darn needy, sister coming home, construction, vehicle woes, dishes, vacuuming, laundry... damn laundry, work, doctors visits... you name it... its gotta be done and its gotta be done RIGHT! NOW!) and I just havent had any time for... well... anything... pretty much anything other than the essentials, which leaves me with no time to do any fun stuff like PLAY WITH MY NEW HAIR...
...OR blogging, and that means posting... and I am sure you are all tired of coming over here to be disappointed day in and day out to see that I havent posted anything new or anything of real substance in like, what, WEEKS? And I have been feeling really bad for being a bad commenter/reader on everyones elses blogs for... uhm... what... WEEKS?! So I have been really trying hard to spend a good amount of time catching up with each of you personally. No serious. Go check your stats. I'm the stalker. You see the 37 page views? And the same IP like 10 times in a row? Cause I was in your flickr... out of flickr... clicked on a link... back a page... forward a page... you know what I am talking about...
Edited to Add: Sadly I started this post 6 days ago... really sad huh? So I am once again catching up but the funny part... everything up to this point... Is STILL true!!! Jesus!
ANYWAYS...
What I am trying to get at? I was over loving all over the Mommy Chronicles this evening (6 days ago) when I saw that she gave me this 10 DAYS AGO (now 16):
 And I am honored! And I am appreciative! And I totally blushed! And then I was like... Man, I totally suck. And then I left her a comment that pretty much said what I just said above but I think I used the word totally about 300 more times than that with an ungodly amount of explanation points.
But I feel like I totally suck because, damn. 10 days ago. I wasnt even there to receive my prize when she handed them out. And she got out the sparkly confetti and EVERYTHING. So thank you girl. YOU! TOTALLY! ROCK! And I am honored that you think I rock. Cause really? I think YOU ROCK WAAAAY more than I do!!
So thank you! So much!
And I promise to everyone if you come back soon, I will have something of SUBSTANCE to read. Cause I have a few things brewing...

Here I have been talking about my new haircut... which by the way... I STILL ABSOLUTELY LOVE!!... and I forgot to mention that I got my little Bubbas haircut again as well. And boy is she ever a cutie. And when I got the camera out and told her I wanted to take a picture of her new haircut, I was AMAZED when she even looked RIGHT at me AND smiled. Cause normally? She closes her eyes, scrunches up her face and says NO! PICKA-TURES! MOMMA!

Random things heard from our household yesterday
|
|
Thursday, July 12, 2007
|
Bubba: "I want macaroni and cheese for breakfast!"
And you know what... that is EXACTLY what she had too.
Me to Husband: "I need to pick up Q-tips and ketchup from the store... think I should buy some condoms too and freak out the cashier AGAIN?"
I swear, I buy the weirdest shit together sometimes. And its not really planned that way. Its usually the 2 or 3 things I forget and have to go back for. Cause I NEVER get everything I need to first go round. Can I get an amen to that?
Bubba: "Momma, I wanna go to college."
I dont know where she got this phrase. Or when she learned the word "college" but she reassured me about 4.8 million times she was going to CAAAH-llege. She makes me so proud!
Husband: "...then we will just put our all of our savings towards Target."
That's right girls. THATS EXACTLY WHAT EVERY WOMAN WANTS TO HEAR! Especially when sitting down and working on the bills.
Me to my Mechanic: "Yeah, I could drive my other car but I feel like a sexy soccer Mom in my van."
Do I need to explain myself on this one?

You'll never find a dull moment around here

I am just amazed at the craziest and silliest things that my daughter does. Finds. Gets into. And does. She will find the oddest thing, plop it on her head and run around for hours calling herself whatever making me laugh hysterically even though I am desperately trying to, say, get her to eat or take a nap. You know, those annoying things Mom's are always trying to get their kids to do.
And I know I am not alone here, when you are trying so hard to be STERN! and FIRM! but you crack a little laugh or mix your words and have to throw your hands in the air and walk away cause how can you be serious! when your child has opened up a packet of taco seasoning and has it smeared all over their face and hair?
So since I have been staying home more during the week, I have been trying to get more pictures of Bubba's extreme "silliness" and while unfortunately I dont have the TACO SEASONING PACKET FIASCO OF 2007 I have captured a few other moments...
My cousin sent me these socks for Christmas and
Bubba wore them all day calling herself Bubba! Big! Socks!
 One morning I found her like this...
I am NEVER going to be ready for her to be in a toddler bed!
 This is Bubba's version of helping me with the laundry. And every time I told her to get down, and then I stepped out of the room. There she was AGAIN. Saying, "Momma! I! HELP!"
 At the park... We must have stuck our tongues out at each other for... oh...
THIRTY MINUTES STRAIGHT...
and giggled the whole time.
Cause that is just the FUNNIEST THING EVA!

Making sure THIS post FOLLOWED the post about my sweet innocent little Angel of a daughter so it didnt SEEM so bad to be a R-RATED Blog
|
|
|
I was over visiting Life Unscripted's blog (And GAWWD I just LOOVE her... if you havent been there, GET THERE!) this evening and realized that SOMEHOW I never noticed this cool "test" she did so I hopped right on the bandwagon... cause everyone knows I am a group following cliff jumper! and my results were that:
Am I hurt? Am I crushed?
Did I know this is exactly what it would say? Am I nodding my head yes so hard it is about to fall off? YES MA'AM I AM!
What surprised me was the REASON/WORDS that made my blog R-Rated:
hell (9x) , sex (3x), ass (2x), bitch (1x)
Cause I SO thought I said BITCH way more than THAT and since when did "FUCK" not make the "Top 10 Bad Words to Say in a Blog List?" If it had? My blog would probably be XXX Rated or something.
But whatever...
So I guess to make sure that I can stick up to my R-Rated-ness... I wanted everyone to know that in THIS picture... where I am ONCE AGAIN... as in TWO DAYS IN A ROW... showing off my way cool new haircut... because after 24 hours I am STILL in love with it... I am not wearing ANY pants.
 Shame on me. |

You finished a HUGE project and don’t feel like you’ve accomplished anything? Like something is missing… So… You rearranged your ENTIRE house (ie “The Furniture”) and THROW OUT a whole bunch of stuff and STILL don’t feel like you’ve accomplished anything? So, you do that ONE THING you know will more than likely do the trick? The one thing that will fill “The Hole.” That’s right girls, you guessed it… I CHOPPED ALL MY HAIR OFF! 
And let me tell yeah, THAT did the trick! (Now, dear Blogland friends O Mine, I do realize that I really haven't EVER uploaded a picture of myself so you dont have ANYTHING to go off of... in terms of long hair vs. short hair... chopped it all off vs. just got a trim... but trust me this is HUGE. And I am loving it. And feeling great. Apparently GREAT enough to ACTUALLY upload a picture! Cause someone even told me today, "Geez Ryan, those pants are HANGING off of you, How much weight HAVE YOU LOST?" so I am on like the HIGH OF A LIFETIME right now... this moment... today... and I am sure when I come off of it I will be like OMG! DID! I! UPLOAD! THAT! and JEEZ! I have like eighteen trillion chins but right now? THIS is my favorite picture of myself. Even if my eyebrows are COMPLETELY whacked out and in DESPERATE NEED OF A MOWING and it was like 3 MILLION degrees in the bathroom and I had UMPTEEN BILLION little hairs poking me all over from my haircut and I couldnt figure out how in the world to take a picture of MYSELF? Like HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU DO THAT?! Ahem.) Okay, I gotta go so I can "play" with my hair.

About freaking time...

My sister... you know the silly one... the one with the HUGE HAIRY ___...THAT SISTER, she. is. home. FINALLY.
And its about damn time too. Cause right there towards the end I was missing her an awful lot and was calling her quite a bit and always "accidentally" waking her up her up at all hours of the night and morning because I couldnt get through my head that she was like 6 or 7 hours AHEAD of our time.
You know... OUR time... back here... in these here "states."
And after driving five hours with my parents in their tiny little car and talking about Rush Limbaugh and what a sweet little girl I still am (cause somehow I still have my parents fooled) wouldnt you know that little butthead made sure she was the last. one. off. the. damn. plane.
Like right at the point my parents and I were going to have a CONNIPTION FIT thinking my sister never made it out of PARIS, she came strolling down the corridor. And after we ATTACKED her with love and hugs and kisses and smiles and giggles and more hugs the FIRST THING she said was, "SPEAK TO ME IN ENGLISH PLEASE!"
She has been in Austria speaking German for the last six months and was in desperate need of our sexy nasally Yankee English. Apparently. Although I have been told many times, "Ryan, where are you from? You dont have an accent at all?"
What in the hell is that suppose to mean anyways?! I guess the word "Yall" that I slip into every. sentence. I. can. doesnt count for ANYTHING. damnit.
So now that my sister is home I will be doing my best to steal her away from all the important things she is suppose to be doing like finding a job and moving into her new duplex, so we can just hang out, be sisters and catch up on everything. And like I have said before, it was only this last year that my sister and I really started to connect so I fully intent on picking up were we left off. Cause I think before last year the last time I liked her was when we were under the age of ten and making forts all over the house and playing doctor.
