Ladi, Da, Di Da, more blogging

Hmm, I haven't blogged in a while so here we go...

So two weeks ago really was not good. I was sick with some annoying stomach bug that really took over my whole body. I missed a day at work, was in bed alot resting and was just plain sick. I was always tired. It started out where the time of the month for me was late, I had really bad stomach pains that wouldn't go away and they weren't my usual cramps that I get. They were more intense and hurt all over my stomach. I took some medication and by the end of the week my period came and I was starting to feel better but still felt crampy and tired and a little weird. I even talked to Mom J about all this and she thought it was a stomach bug or flu. I am cooking, doing other things around the house and going out with Tommy and friends again. I finally feel normal again. I wasn't feeling up to doing much in the evenings since it was only me while Tommy worked. I do know when I close one night in the week and have to turn around and be back the next morning, that is really hard for me. I don't get as much sleep like I usually do. I definitely feel like a zombie haha!!


Tommy was on stand by last weekend for work but he didn't get called in. So that is always nice. Tommy and I went to our little town fair. We werent there long since it was very tiny. Then later we went back with a friend, since he wanted to see what it was all about. I got an early birthday gift from Tommy. One that I was eyeballing. It was a Beijo purse. I love it. It is pearl colored and just so nice. It comes with a warranty, how cool is that?? LOL!!

Haley went to the vet. She is actually a little overweight. So we need to take her for more walks in the evening, cut back how much food she gets morning and night and cut back on the treats we give her. Haha!! Poor baby girl, but she will be ok. Everything is good exept for her weight.


We decided that the cats don't absolutely need to be declawed. It costs a lot of $$ and it isn't a must. Also, it is unfortunate that Duke will not be getting his puppy training. It costs way too much $$ and with driving all the way up there and back, the $$ for gas will be expensive. We just feel we can do our best at training him to be calmer and to learn more tricks. We would have loved for him to go through the training but it is just too much $$.


Tommy recently worked on restoring a World War Two Invasion Glider, that was used to land troops behind enemy lines. It is located right on base and he enjoyed working on it with the other people. When we were at the Wings Over Whiteman air show, there was a sign up sheet there and so Tommy was interested in working on it did it once. He wants to work on it again. They needed volunteers and so since it a volunteer project, Tommy wouldn't get paid for it but that is ok.

I've been putting in my schedule working on crafts for Baby Joseph. I am so enjoying all of it. I know this sounds way too early but I also want to start working on some Christmas gifts for all our nieces and nephews including new babies in the family. I am not going to be telling them what I am crafting because I want it to be a surprise. I am sure we will not have a whole lot of $$ next Christmas so crafting gifts will be part of the way to go.

We recently went to the community pool. We were able to swim a little bit in the pool and were in the lazy river just relaxing. It was nice. Shortly after though, it started to rain and so we left. We haven't had very good luck with the community pool, haha!! First time we go, they closed like 5 minutes after we got there. The second time, it rained. It wasn't as crowded as I thought it would be so it was nice. We plan to go back again soon. We will not be able to go this weekend, because Tommy is working this week and part of next week 12 hour day shifts including this weekend coming up at work. He is not looking forward to it because that means he is working 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. everyday for a while without a day off and sometimes earlier. He does have a four day weekend to look forward to afterwards so that will be nice. I have to work one day next weekend.

Tommy and I will be off July 3, 4, 5, and 6 for 4th of July weekend. We are looking so forward to that. I took some time off from work and Tommy gets time off for the holiday anyway. Tommy plans to grill but doesn't know just yet what. I love it when he grills. The food Tommy grills are so delicious. There will be a pool party at the community pool so we want to go there for that. I want to make cupcakes and decorate them with red, white, and blue sprinkles. Yummy, Yummy!! We may get together wtih friends but don't know yet.

This past Saturday night, (well Sunday early morning), we were sleeping and got a phone call from one of our friends at 1 a.m. He had something go wrong with his car. The battery light kept coming on and going off and he thought he could make it home without his vehicle just stopping but he didn't make it. He ended up being about 16 miles away from us and we ended up going to help him. He had his two year old daughter with him and so it was good I went too. I kept her company while Tommy helped our friend fix his vehicle. We went to Wal Mart and he got a new battery but it ended up being the ultinator. So he made it home and we followed him but Tommy ended up helping him the next day and the vehicle worked. If that was us, we would want someone to help us out. I never sleep until 10:30 in the morning but we ended up sleeping in that late. We went back to sleep at 4:30 a.m. so we were definitely tired. We were so tired on Sunday. It was an all together blah day!!

That is all for now, will blog more another time!!
