Not much time

I don't have a lot of time to update this like I had hoped. My mom is feeling terrible today and I need to get her to the hospital again this morning for the 2nd half of her thyroid scan.

I will get on here as soon as I can and update

MIA

I haven't been able to update this because my mom has been really sick. She's still sick and still at home so I'm taking care of her on top of what I usually do.

I will write when I can but I will be MIA probably until she is better and back at work

Another day is almost over

You know it's bad when you don't have a clue what day of the week it is!!

I had no idea it was already Thursday, it feels like Monday to me.

Ryan's home and in a great mood. I got lots of stuff taken care of today. I'm listening to old Christmas music right now, don't ask me why because I'm sure I don't have a reason to justify it.

Tomorrow I have to go pay the electric bill, I hate having to do that because it's right in town and at the time I can go it's usually really busy and nowhere to park. That means Kaleigh and I will be walking for a few blocks just to drop it off.

I found a great christmas tree at Home Depot. I just have to figure out how to get it home after we buy it. It's so much better than the tree we have right now and it's really big!

And now I'm babbling, I'll write more later

What a week

First, I have to say this before I forget--

Ryan has some really amazing people that have sponsored him for his Diabetes school walk! I'd love to mention them on here but I don't think that's the right thing to do. I was telling Ryan this morning how this was more than just a walk around the school, it was a chance for him to see how generous people are and how everyone wants to work together to fight diabetes.

Mom had been sick the last 2 days. She had some problems with her blood pressure. She seems to be ok now, she's back at work today. Hopefully she feels well enough to make it through the whole day.

Kaleigh was sick on Tuesday (the day mom was sent home from work) but she has recovered from that.

I spent most of the last two days taking care of mom, cooking her meals, getting her up to use the treadmill and making sure she was feeling ok. I think this was a huge wake up call that she just needs to start making a change. I told her not to do it just for herself but to do it for Ryan. I think she's inspired.

I'll write more later, I have to catch up on laundry and house work.

Little Miss is sick


That's right, Kaleigh is sick. We got up earlier than normal today and got ready to take Ryan to school. I told Kaleigh that because she was so good yesterday, I'd take her to HEB and we'd get some donuts for breakfast. We went there, got half way through the store and she started whining.

She didn't stop whining until about 30 minutes ago when she crawled up on the couch, got under the blanket and laid down. I just checked her temp and it was right around 100. Now we get to look forward to the constant temperature checking and medicine. I sure do hate when she's sick.

Yesterday when Ryan got home from school, I checked his school work. He got the following scores on his work; 20, 57, 67, 75, 92

We got busy on correcting that work so he can take it back in.

Here are some pictures from yesterday and today, I'll write more when I can.

It's been an all around great day

Let's see, it's about 1:30pm and Kaleigh has been up from her nap for like 30 minutes I guess. I've gotten 5 loads of laundry done, all the windows are open so I can enjoy the last "cooler summer" type day. I'm way ahead of schedule on cleaning so I have some time to write here.

Kaleigh is watching the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving movie right now and it's so quiet! I love it!

I let the boys (Baby Kahn and Derby) out on the screened in back porch for about a hour. They were so happy! Derby eventually wanted back inside the house and now he's napping. Baby Kahn curled up in Kaleigh's wagon and crashed for about a hour. Poor Sasha, she was asleep under the bed and missed the whole thing! Oh well.

Last night I was rather upset about something that Brian said. He said (and by said I mean he quoted) something about praying to God and realizing he was praying to himself and that made him God. I was so angry, how ridiculous can someone be. I mean I can understand and respect someone's opinion but at the same time I expect them to respect mine too. He was obviously throwing that in my face but he backed off when he knew how mad I was.

Brian's birthday is this Saturday. He'll be 35! Kaleigh said she wanted to go see him for his birthday and surprise him so I guess that's what we will be doing. I already talked to Sandy about it and she agreed to keep it a "surprise". I'd rather not see him but who can argue with a 3 year old about seeing her dad??

I need to make some food but I really don't want to. Does that make me lazy? I think I'm just tired of doing the same things every single day. It gets rather annoying and boring.

Oh, not to overlook Thanksgiving, but Christmas is like 40+ days away!! Can you feel my excitement?? Yeah I'm really excited about it. I've been working on the little details for about a week now. The only thing working in my favor at the moment is the jump start on moving around furniture.

Ok that's it for now, I'll write more later most likely
