Monday

My Mom called yesterday morning and said they were transferring my Uncle to a "Comfort Room" better known as hospice. He has a DNR so there isn't any sense of keeping in ICU. Jim and Nicole came to church yesterday morning and then spent the day with us and went back to church last night. We watched this show through Netflix livestream I think its called entitled 30 Days...about people who do things out of their comfort zone for 30 days..its a pretty good show. We didn't watch all of season one but I want to watch the rest of it. Last night I went up to Brockport Hospital to chase my Auntie and Mommy back to Henrietta for some sleep..well my original goal was to drive them back to Henrietta but hard headed Auntie wouldn't let me..and when I say chase...I mean chase...you little speed demon you...LOL My aunt reads my blog so I gotta raze her a little..I love ya Auntie. I talked to my cousin who is stuck in California with her hubby waiting for a load that will send them towards home..we talked from Brockport hospital to Henrietta to Webster..yes yes I admit it...I talk on my cell phone while driving. Got home at 10 to find out that my wonderful hubby had made me a quasidilla....or however you spell that thing that is 2 torillas with cheese between them and then heated in the skillet..LOL. This morning I got up and went to the gym. Did my hour on the treadmill and then my strength training..then came home and ate my carrots and celery dipped in blue cheese dressing...it so makes it worth working out..ohhhhh and for breakfast before work out I had an eggbeater omelet with canadian bacon and cheese in it..yes I know the cheese isn't that good for me but I needed the protein..and the cheese keeps the canadian bacon from falling out. So now I'm catching up on my blog...and gonna check out my 46 e-mails...probably half of which are spam. Later

Sunday Morning Kind Of..

Its 2:47 AM..my mom just called. My Uncle's family just got a call to come up to the hospital because my Uncle isn't going to make it. Not exactly the call you want to get at this time of the morning. Yesterday we got to watch little Stella for a few hours. I sat here on the computer while she slept on my lap. She's so cute. Then we went to Jim's brother's house for a going away party. Afterwards Ken and I went grocery shopping and then home to chill for the rest of the day. I was ready for bed at 6:00 but stayed up until 11:00..Why? I don't know. Now I'm up again..writing about this..sigh.. looks like this week isn't gonna be so great either.

Friday..

Oh my goodness...I missed a day but that's because yesterday was so busy. The lady I babysat for Wednesday wanted to know if I'd watch Charity (3) and Lydia (1) while she went to physical therapy...No problem...be there by 9:00..hahahha...as usual. While I was at the gym I realized that my phone wasn't working...said...insert sim card...uh duh...sim card is in...so now instead of going from the gym to babysitting I have to run home to pick up a spare phone I have..figuring I dropped my phone 1 to many times. Luckily I live on one side of Webster she only lives across town so I wasn't to late...try putting my sim card in the other phone...insert sim card...oh oh...this isn't good..After babysitting I'm supposed to go over to my Aunt's and we're gonna do some running...Now I gotta make a trip to AT&T coz there ain't no way I'm gonna be without a cell phone...I'm not sure how I lived without one before but I sure can't now.. Take my left arm...please but leave me my cell phone. Run into AT&T...and the guy activates a new sim card for me...phone works...unfortunately I lost all my saved numbers....arghhhhhhhhhhhhh. Got to my Aunts and she gave me some of the numbers I lost plus 2 I didn't have before. Do our running around, play a game of Skip-Bo and its off to make supper so I can get to church. It was a very busy day...didn't even fire up the laptop until after 4 PM. So update on my Aunt Marge...they sent her home...said the operation was to risky...so she has to stay calm, keep her blood pressure low and learn how to manage her pain...I don't know about you all but, " Hello you have an aneurysm that could burst at any time" just doesn't seem to go with stay calm and keep your blood pressure low. Then last night I found out that my Uncle Clarence ( Mom's brother ) is in the hospital..all I know so far is that he's on some kind of breathing device and they moved him to ICU this morning..Its not looking good. On another note..its been a pretty easy day for me..went to the gym..came home and finished the laundry I've been working on for the last 3 days, emptied the compost pail and covered one of my grow beds with plastic..gotta get that soil warmed up I've got a hankering to plant..true it will only be lettuce and spinach but I'm feeling the urge.

Wednesday

Its been a busy day....off to the gym at 7:30..I told a lady at church I'd watch her 3 year old while she took her baby to get some blood work done. Be there by 9:15..no problem...I'm always done by 9:00. Well today another lady from church shows up at the gym and wants to talk...then Nicole calls and wants to talk. Not that I'm complaining that Nicole called...just saying...that's the way it always goes. Finally get to her house around 9:30...She's back by 10:55...run home and start vaccuming. Nicole calls ..what am I doing? Vaccuming so Stella doesn't get lost in the dog hair from Jade. Play with the pup....check some e-mail...Nicole and I go to Red Robin for lunch and then MickyD's drive thru for a McFlurry...Back home. Nicole leaves at 2 so she can get ready for work and here I sit. ..with ham in the oven, rice in the rice cooker and sweet sweet little Stella asleep in her bed next to me on the couch. It don't get much better then this...LOL

Tuesday

Well its been a busy morning...got up and made Ken's coffee and did my Bible devotions. Made Ken's breakfast and then headed off to the gym. Did my hour on the treadmill and my strength training and then headed home. I still had 6.77 pounds of 90% lean ground beef. So I made 31- 1/4 pounders and have them in the freezer freezing so I can repack them. Just got a message from my 3nd cousin on facebook that my Dad's sister Marge was taken to Erie County Medical Center with an aortic aneurysm and aortic tear. I don't have any more information then that right now. Well my little grandpuppy isn't coming to spend the night tonight...I'm sad..but she should be here tomorrow night. James called and asked me to look up some places for him that would help him unload the truck. Mom called and I talked to her for a while. Nicole has called me 4 times...LOL. I think I need a nap..right after I eat lunch.

Monday

Went and did my usual work out this morning..then sailed into the gas station on fumes to fill my tank. Came home and Nicole and Stella came in shortly after. Had to go to a couple of stores and then back home to make 5 pounds of 90% lean ground beef into meatballs..Then we watched Tyler Perry's " I can do bad all by myself". Did some burgers on the grill, Nicole and I did dishes and now its off to the Missions Conference at Church..Yahoo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to get home though coz I'm sleepy.

Stella Thinks She's 10 foot tall
