Just Chatting
Not much to report on the home front, well Brandon missed 2 days of school this past week. It's cute how he says mommy my neck hurts referring to his sore throat, and he had a slight fever. Gave him some Tylenol cough and sore throat and it help ease the pain and get his fever down. Can you believe how many tylenol's they make for kids now, couch and cold & fever and pain you name it they got it. However we did got to the doctor just to make sure he didn't have streep throat and she gave us a script for amoxicillin. He seems to be doing better now.
The weather has been unseasonable warm it's not a wonder the kids have been getting sick.
Started my slim fast diet and lost 3 pounds this week. My goal is 75 but will be happy if I lose half that much. It's not hard for me since I like slim fast. To help me along I told Robert for valentines day I want an exercise bike and not candy or flowers. Still have a long way to go. So wish me luck
Spent most of the day cleaning the kitchen but I have to give credit where credit is due Robert did the dishes.
Did I tell you I bought all new appliances in black, got a side by side refrigerator with ice maker......double oven stove with glass range top and a black chest freezer. I just love them I have so many magnates and pictures on the frig you can hardly tell it's black ...lol
I even replaced my table and chairs so the kitchen is all new. Next on the list is a dishwasher but will get that later
Well not much else going on so until next time ......

Starting Over........again
It has been 7 months since I have written in my journal. Life was to depressing and yet moving to fast to even jot it down. may things have happened and to reflect on this year would be to hurtful so I'm going to skip it. Nothing good can come from it especially when you get screwed over by your own family. For this reason I am making my journal private and will send out invites for my friends only.
The New Year will bring a new chapter in my life and a new beginning, one I want to share with my friends. Granted I am not the greatest writer but I will do my best to inform you and entertain you.. The font I'm using is Ballroom Tango if you don't have it my print will be huge .....sorry for that if you want it you can get it here http://www.ellies-treasures.com/fonts/fonts.html
Hope to hear from you all and if you have a journal send me a link
Love and Hugs Diane

Just Touching Base
So much has happened this last month and I just haven't posted any of it.
Brandon had his school field trip and I don't go to these function because Brandon would be a handful with me around,so I stayed home. They went to Sammy Baker National Park. Seems Brandon had a great time and was walking threw the creeks his shoes were all wet and he stopped at the gift shop and got himself a red glitter slinky. Of course I had to play with it when he got home. When I was a kid they were made of the silver metal now they are made of plastic.....I guess the metal ones are dangerous now.
Another reason I didn't go I have been having problems with my blood pressure to the point I developed edema. That's were your body starts retaining water and my feet and legs really got swollen. To the point I couldn't get any shoes on. Yes stubborn me didn't want to go to the doctors because I still don't have any medical insurance, but when I was getting to the point I couldn't walk because of it .....I went. The doctor was ready to kill me when they took my bp I was 180 over 110. She put me on medication for my bp and it has a water pill with it to reduce the swelling. Glad to say my bp this morning was 198 over 98 and the swelling has gone down a lot. Not all the way but I can walk and wear shoes so were getting there.
I finally got my hearing date for my disability it's June 14 and have a pre hearing consultation with my lawyer on June 1 to make sure we have everything in order. We'll see how it goes this time. Ok well I'm done for now need to eat breakfast have a great day all. Diane

My boring life
Well I better keep up on this don't you think? I've been spending time in animation shop trying to get the hang of things but it's giving me a head ache. Which means I haven't figured it out yet, but I'm not giving up just yet. It's break time. If it pisses you off it's time to walk away.
Not a whole lot going on here. Brandon got pink eye again only this time in both eyes (sigh). So he missed two days of school this week, and he was not happy. Same ole thing going on here. Really I lead such a boring life. I don't go out. I don't have a lot of friends and I don't have friends over.
Well since we picked up that loving little bill from the courts any extra money goes into that account to pay it off. We have four years to get it paid but we want to do it sooner if we can.
We can't go anywhere as a family until August 2 that's when house arrest will be over. So I do all the running and all the shopping and it's getting old. I don't always feel like going to the store and wish someone else could do it. Also when Roberts weekends get here he gets depressed because he can't go anywhere. His so called friends never come by to see him they don't even call. I doubt he should even call them friends.Oh here I go starting to rant ........lets not do that.
Good news this week Sanjaya went home. Thank goodness if he stayed one more week that was it for me .....no more Idol.
The show was really becoming a joke.
I also want to express my sorrow about the massacre at Virginia Tech. No words can ease the pain those families are suffering. I will keep them in my prayers may God give you the comfort you seek.
Well I need to get dinner started so have a great day all........figures AOL is having issues so I can't add anything ftp is down, have a great day Diane

Short Update
So lately I been hooked on my-space and been spending time getting my page set, so I'm sorry it's been so long since I updated.
Brandon's spring break was short and sweet. Still I was glad when he went back to school. He spent most of his time complaining about NOT going to school. The little monkey wants school everyday. Not looking forward to summer vacation.
Robert has been home sick the last two days. I think I tried to kill him. No not really but he got food poisoning from my cooking. OK not my cooking but I fix a dish with elk meat in it and I think that's where he got it. I didn't get sick because I didn't eat any. So no more wild game here, never liked elk or deer meat anyway.
Brandon had a great Easter and he has been feeding me all his candy, he doesn't like it. If I eat one more jelly bean I'm going to turn into one. Not really I cheat I have been putting them in my mouth and when he's not looking I put it in the trash .....ok I'm a bad mom but I can't take anymore candy.
Well not much going on with me. Same old thing day in day out I will leave the addy to my-space stop on bye. Love & Hugs
