Random Stuff

Well, today was my much anticipated interview in Huntsville. The position is in Florence but their main office is in Huntsville, so off I went! It is for a Marketing position with Columbia Cottage, an assisted living facility. I feel that it went well. She said my interview should only be around 45 minutes but it actually took an hour and a half so I am hoping that it is a good sign. Thanks to everyone for your encouragement and prayers. Keep your fingers crossed!

My little sweet Bella has developed somewhat of an attitude lately. Last night I sang to her in this crazy voice just goofing off and she proceeds to cover her ears with both hands and say "Mommy, no that hurts ears!" Thanks my dear Bella...Kids are so funny and are sponges to everything. Sometimes I am afraid that she will overhear something that someone says while we are out shopping or whatever and that she will repeat it, how embarassing would that be!

The Harvest Fest was a blast, hopefully I will find time to post pictures soon. All the little kiddos were so adorable! Bella is still walking around saying Trick-or-Treat to everyone thinking that they will give her candy. She is now asking anyone and everyone for candy even strangers, not a good idea Bella, but I can't seem to get her to understand that. She now has a new profound love for candy. She came home from school the other day with two huge bags and apparently the teachers let them eat candy out of the bowl all day long, also not a good idea. So now I have to tell her if she eats all of her supper she can have one piece of candy.

Well, hope that my rambling didn't bore you to tears but rambling is what I do best! Everyone have a great week and be safe!

MULTIPLE BLES8INGS

For anyone who likes John & Kate Plus 8...I just finished the book she wrote. It just came out and it is called Multiple Bles8ings. This book was amazing! She told their story from the very beginning, starting with the birth of the twins. Even if you do not like to watch that show I am sure that you will find inspiration from this story. She is a great Christian woman and can be very inspiring. I just thought I would share this with you all. I am finished with the book so if anyone would like to borrow it from me just let me know! Everyone have a good week and stay warm, it is freezing!

Yep, sick again

Well, just to keep everyone updated...I've been sick again. So if you see me at one place one day and then I am not there the next, you know why. I made it to the Pumpkin patch, thank goodness, because I did not want Bella to miss out, but then got home and was very sick throughout the night. This went on for a few hours until my Mother finally forced me to take a phenergan tablet. Then I slept for a very long time. When I am not nauseated I'm vomiting, and when I'm not vomiting I'm nauseated :( Sounds like fun, huh? All the while keeping up with an extremely energetic two year old. I finally broke down and went to the doctor today, per husband and mother, I was forced. I have yet another cyst on the ovary and a severe bladder/kidney infection, hence, the vomiting. But enough about that, I just wanted to keep you all updated. I am glad that Scarlett told me that you guys did this! Now I can talk and rant and rave all I want to and eventually someone is going to read it. So I can get things off my chest.

We hope everyone had a good time at the park last night and we are sorry we did not get to be there. But everyone have a good rest of the week!!! Hopefully, next time I will have something a little more intereesting to blog about.

Well, for those of you who have children, this will probably be no surprise. Bella is into this phase and I absolutely cannot stand it, it drives me crazy! Everything to everyone is "No it's MINE"!!! I really just do not like it at all. I do not even know where she heard it from. The things kids will do and say. I have tried repeatedly to explain to her that although it may be yours we still have to share and you can't say that to people because it is not nice. But it is like she is not even listening to me because less than 5 minutes later she is doing it again. Maybe someone has some suggestions if you and your child had trouble with this problem. I have explained to her the best way that I can but I really think she is just acting out and is being a typical 2 year old at this point in her life. If anyone remembers me as a child I was rowdy and sometimes not very nice. My mother laughs and says, "Honey you are definately paying for your raising!" Uh oh, I'm seriously scared then! ;)

Hey everyone! Well, I normally do not blog but here goes! Scarlett was very nice in helping me set up my blog. She suggested that I do it because I have been struggling with some things lately. She thinks that it might help me in getting my mind off some things and she is probably right. I don't want to scare anyone, nothing is seriously wrong I have just been dealing with some things. I have been through so much the last 2 years with the surgery during pregnancy, the delivery, then all of the physical problems and surgeries following. I think that I have just let everything build up and I finally feel like I am going to explode! I have a wonderful husband and mom that I can talk to that are so supportive, but still I feel like I am going to explode. We want another baby so badly but it is so scary. I am so afraid that I will have the same kidney problems that I had the first time around. The doctors are telling me baby or hysterectomy because of my female problems. I am struggling. It is not cool to have to make that kind of decision at 27 years old. I am in need of some good emotional support right now. I know there are worse things that could happen but I've always been the type to want 3 or 4 kiddos running around, and Richard too :)
