Useless Rambles

I'm just a normal 40 hour a week, working woman that is trying to save money wherever she can. I have a wonderful husband and two big kitties and hope to have children in the near future. I enjoy being around my huge extended family, playing softball, and various games of all kinds.

Damn the holidays

Ok just realized this past weekend, that one of my favorite holidays is about a month away. Am I prepared?? HELL NO! Not even close. Next weekend the tree needs to be put up, but the landlord has to lay down trim, so what's the point if he's going to do that. Still haven't moved back all my crap to the living room for the nice new carpet we got.

So in terms of gifts, only grandma's is done. Parents are started. Well, one of mine, and one of peters. So now what? I hate shopping late. And last year, everything went so well and there is so much to live up to. Not to mention this year I'm doing Christmas Eve dinner with all the food. Ham, Turkey, stuffing, taters...oh god.

Normally by now I'm good to go. But damn time....creeping up on me. Sneaky Sneaky time.

Good Parenting Finally

Ok honestly, this was a great idea! Screw what the psychologists say. Are they raising teenagers where you try to do the best you can and nothing works. You can reward for good behavior all you want (which I do agree with) but that doesn't work alone. Not with every individual. I'm a big fan of having teenagers see what other people do in their lives and what it feels like to be in other's shoes. Not even just teenagers, EVERYONE!

And it's so funny that they think this is so bad, yet when Dr. Phil makes rambunctious teenagers go to "jail," that's ok. Whatever. It just some stupid double standards. I applaud this mom for doing something and not just letting her kid do whatever she wants.

Which Wrestler are you?



You're Texas' most complete wrestler. The Man Of 1000 Retirements, the technical master, yet scarily extreme bastard, Terry Funk.

Huh??

So dad got out of his surgery last night and seemed to be doing well, but that's because of the nice drugs he's getting. He's getting something better than morphine! And his nurse is cracking us all up. So I'm crossing my fingers that this is the last one.

Now the title of my post refers to why he has another leak. And every single time I tell this story I feel dumber. I've been the phone person to my extended family, so I've told quite a few people. I guess what caused this leak is from the 2nd surgery and his stitch came out early and started irritating and tearing his lining. ??? I don't get it. The doctor also said, before he even looked at it, it was because he started smoking again and thus it couldn't heal at all. I understand smoking is bad, but dammit, it's not that bad and he didn't even smoke for a week afterwards and doesn't smoke that much now. Then he also said the physical therapy was too much. Sounds like a bunch bs for i don't want to say i screwed up AGAIN! Stupid stupid doctor! So their solution was to put in better stitches that last longer! Ta Da!!! I don't get it.

Round # 3

Ok I know I haven't posted in a while, but so much has been going on, I've had problems getting any space or time to breathe. That song "just breathe", or maybe that's not the title, but that's what it should be, I really like it. Although it makes me want to break out in tears because it applies to so many moments of my life.

So work was horrible, whatever. End of that story.

Dad's got another leak. We spent all night, literally all night, at the hospital on Friday from 9 PM to about 5 AM. I actually drank coffee that night, so by the time I got home, I was wired and talking about 90 mph. Seriously, if you ever want me to talk, just feed me coffee and wait two hours. AHHHHHH!!! But anyways, yeah dad called me on Thursday and he had an MRI done and it showed another leak from the spinal cord. Now we're waiting for L & I to approve another (that makes it 3) surgery. I hate this hospital very much. But I'm getting to know the workers pretty well. He went in on Friday because his head hurt really bad and he was running a fever. It was not good, you never want to see your parents weak. You just don't. But I've seen it way too much lately.

Sometimes I just want to crawl into a hole and not get out until winter is over. I think that's why I've slept so much lately, dreams are better than reality. I like my dreams. You know usually, they are about Beloit life. Ahh, good times. I miss you guys.
