Something New

Well, I have found a new site to keep everyone updated on the baby situation.  The link will be in my site column to the right ~~> .  It's a pretty neat site.  I hope yall enjoy!

Well, tomorrow is another day at the doctor's office.  I'm getting a bit nervous.  I just don't know what to expect.  I have had some sickness.  Today at Granny's house we were eating lunch and I had a slight stomach problem.  Nothing to call "morning sickness" or afternoon, or whatever time it was.  Probably more in my head than anything!  It's Ok though.  I rather have symptoms than not!  I ate a few crackers and I was fine.  By 5:00 pm I was craving another plate from Granny's.  It's all good!  Speaking of craving...I'm hungry!  I'll talk with yall later!

COLD!!!!!

It's cold!!!!  Even in the house.  This back room/craftroom/computer room doesn't warm up all that quickly.  My little hands are like ice.  I'm hoping it will warm up soon...in my house...I like it cold outside!

I am about to go and clean my house.  Very slowly and carefully that is.  What usually took me about 45 mins. to an hour will probably take 2 hours for me now.  I am taking things slow for awhile!!!! 

I got a lot of Christmas shopping done last night!  I only have like 3 more people to buy for and I am done.  Well, except for Kent.  He is starting to get to be the hardest person to buy for.  When he asked me what I want, I lay it all out on the table.  LOL  But he just says...whatever you want to buy me.  He is a mess!!!  But I love him!!!!!

Well, I am off.  I have clothes to wash and a house to clean.  And maybe a visit to Wally world.  We'll see!  I'll talk with yall later!!!!!  BYE!!!!!!

Black Friday

OK.  So to the retail world today is "Black Friday".  You would think they would call it "Green Friday" cause everyone is spending their money.  Oh well.  I'm going to the mall later tonight with my parents.  I think I might pick a few things up for Kent.  Santa called and said that Kent has been a good boy this year...so what the hey.  I guess he can get "something".  The tradition of going to Wally World at midnight was offically taken out last night.  We rolled up to Wally and they were CLOSED.  Until 6am.  HOW RUDE!!!!  So, so much for that tradition.  We'll have to find us another one.  I still need to go to Wally and get a journal and a date calendar.  I'm going to start journaling on paper about my pregnancy so when I get preggo again or when this baby grows up...we can read what all happened.  I need a date book so I can keep up with all my dates with the doctor and haircut appt.  and stuff like that.  I did have one, but it runs out in December!  Whew, it is WINDY outside today...and cold too.  But I LOVE it!!!!  I'm glad that it is cold.  I can't wait until we get snow....if we even do.  We didn't last year.  Not even a dusting!!!!  I was looking forward to it...it would have been mine and Kent's first snow together!  Oh well.  Well, I have typed enough.  I'll talk with yall later!!!!

Happy Gobble Day

Just thought I would drop everybody a note and say "HAPPY THANKSGIVING!"  I've already had the whole Thanksgiving dinner and all the trimmings.  I am still stuffed.  I've still got one more Thanksgiving tradition to tackle.  Kent and I always go to Wal-Mart at midnight and shop for Christmas presents and stocking stuffers.  It is always fun to do. 

To update everyone of the pregnancy journey...I'm 6 weeks today.  I've been tired a lot though.  But I'm glad that atleast I am having symptoms with this pregnancy.  I have an appointment Monday at 11.  I don't know what all will be done then, but I hope everything is still OK.  I'll let yall know.  Well, I am off.  I'll talk with yall later!

Thankful

I know that Kent and I have already put up our tree and took down the "fall decorations", but I just wanted to tell everyone what I am thankful for this Thanksgiving.  I am thankful for my salvation cause with out it I would be lost and going to hell.  I am thankful for a God who would send His only Son to die for me.  I am thankful for a family that loves me and supports me.  I am thankful for a child that I will never see on earth but is waiting for me in heaven.  I am thankful for a second chance from God to be a parent here on earth.  I am thankful for a husband who puts up with me even in my times of mood swings.  I am thankful for my health.  I am thankful for our income...it may not be a lot but it puts food on the table and clothes on my back and I don't go to bed at night cold.  I am thankful for a country that still gives me freedom to practice my religion...even though it may not for long.  I am thankful for beautiful days after a storm.  I am thankful for so many things.  We all have something to be thankful for.  I hope that everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!!!!

Update!

Well, today was a great day!!!  Kent and I put up our Christmas tree and some decorations.  Our tree is the prettiest tree ever!!!!!!  I took some pics of it.  I'll post them once I get them developed.  My doctor's office called and said that all my tests came back just fine.  I have an appointment Monday, Dec. 1st. at 11.  I am still a bit nervous about it all, but I am slowing starting to calm down.  Just keep praying for me please.  Tomorrow, Kent and I are going grocery shopping.  We are seriously out of food...lol.  Well, we have junk food, but that isn't good for me plus it gives me heartburn.  I've got Tums though...yummm....not!  It works though!  Well, I guess that is all for today.  I'll talk with yall later!!!

WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK.  First of all...sorry no entry in the past few days.  I  have been a busy little bee!  Second of all.....I am no longer going to sell jewelry....why you ask?  Well, third of all....................I AM PREGNANT! Oh yeah you read right.  I am pregnant.  Surprised?  Me too!  I'm pregnant!  I can't believe it.  But I am.  I went to the doctor today (Monday) and I am 5 weeks.  Due to my last pregnancy which ended in a miscarriage, the doctor is keeping a very close eye on me.  He wants to make sure that everything is OK.  He ran some tests today for different hormones.  He did a progesterone  test and I am supposed to get the results to that tomorrow.  If it is low I will start taking two pills a day of progesterone until he tells me other wise.  So I'm not out of the woods yet!  So please please please pray for me and this baby and Kent (he will have to deal with me for the next 9 months....hehehee).  I'm really nervous already and a little scared.  So please keep me in your prayers!  Well, that is all for today.  I'll talk with yall later!!  WOOHOOO I'm preggo!!!!!

Well.....

It looks like I am in the jewelry business.  Well, I will be soon.  I think I can get a lot out of the work I will be doing.  So I am really hoping to get things started pretty soon!  The lady who is helping me get all of this done is coming to the house tomorrow and helping me with the paper work of it all.  I hope to have my first show by Dec. 6th.  We'll see.  I'm really excited about it.

Tomorrow Kent and I are going over to Lesli and Jared's house to watch the Auburn/Alabama football game.  WAR EAGLE!  We are going to grill out and just have fun.  I hope we all have a good time.  Well, folks that is all for today.  Nothing special.  I'll talk with yall later!

Just thinking

I've bee thinking a lot lately about many things.  Like, with the whole trying to have a baby thing...when I talk about it people are always like it will happen when you just don't think about it and just relax.  Well, for one it's hard not to think about it.  I think about my m/c daily and when I think that I think of wanting a baby.  The relaxing part is not going to happen either.  My body right now is so confused with itself that I couldn't relax even if I wanted to.  I think I am going to have to call my DR pretty soon.  AF hasn't showed up and I really don't think I am preggo.  So I think I may need something to jump start my cycle.  And plus, its stressful not knowing what is going on in your body.  I just want to have some sort of routine for my body.  Well, see how it goes.  I'm kind of nervous about even calling the DR cause I'm scared he will be like...well you just need to wait things out and let your body do its thing.  Well, what if something is really wrong and it can't do it's thing???  So many questions and so little answers.  Oh well.  I think I might try and head to bed here in a bit.  I need to get up and get ready to meet a lady at 11 for an appointment about selling jewelry.  I'll let yall know how it goes!  I'll talk with yall later!

A new career for me?

Well, today so far has been a pretty good day.  The sun is shining the sky is blue and the weather is cool.  A lady that sells Premeire Jewelry called today because I was interested in selling it.  We made an appointment to eat lunch and talk about me getting into it.  We are meeting tomorrow at 11.  I'm really looking forward to it.  I'm hoping that I am good at it and that everything works out for me.  It would be a great little job to have.  I'm hoping to have atleast one show before Christmas, so I can get the feel of it and see if it's really for me.  I hope so.

I really have nothing planned for today.  I think I might head over to my parent's and straighten up their house a little bit so I don't have so much to do tomorrow since I am meeting that lady!  I also need to get things cleaned up around my house.  I am in the process of washing clothes now.  Tonight all I have planned is to watch Friends and just spend time with Kent.  Hopefully, it will be a relaxing night!  Well, I'll talk with yall later!

Money, Money, Money

My jewelry party went so great.  Although not all my invited guests showed it still turned out to be a great success.  We had a lot of fun.  We played games, we ate, we shopped, and we all in all had a blast!  I think the final total for all the money spent was $528!  They said the average show does about $400.  So, I was way excited about that.  And I got $206 in free jewelry.  So, I got a lot of Christmas shopping done.  I am so excited.  It went a lot better than what I thought it would!

I am so in the Christmas mood.  I can't wait.  My neighbors across the street have already put up their tree and it looks so pretty through the window.  I think Kent and I are going to do our decorating the day after Thanksgiving.  I'm really looking forward to it.  My house looks so cute when it is decorated for Christmas.  I can't wait to turn on the Christmas music and sit under the tree and wrap gifts.  It is always my favorite thing to do!  Although this Christmas will be a little sad for me and my family, for many reasons it will still be a great time of togetherness and a growing experience for me.  This will be the first Christmas without my MawMaw Cummings and this Christmas I would have been preggo.  But you know what...all things happen for the glory of God.  And I know that spiritually, emotionally, and physically I will be a lot more mature because of the trails I've been through.  Well, I am off to relax for a bit and get enjoy the day.  I'll talk with yall later!

My Big Day Today

Well, I have a big day ahead of me.  I have to go get my hair cut at 10:00am.  Which I think I am going in for my shortest Do ever.  Kent said he liked my hair short...so we'll see.  If you see me walking around with a hat on for the next few weeks or so you will know that it didn't go so well.  I'm hoping it does go well.  I'm just scared that my hair won't do right short.  You know?  I have thick curly hair so I just wonder that when it is all said and done will it look like I have a big fizzy cottonball sitting on my head.  I'm going to ask my stylist if it is a good idea to cut it short.  I'll let yall know!  After the hair cutting I have to go to Food World and pick up a few things for my party tonight.  I'm really looking forward to it.  I hope a lot of people show up.  It should be a fun time.  Well, when I get home I still have a few things that I need to get done.  I still have to dust and take out the trash.  I have to make some tea and get all the cookies baked and all that fun stuff.  I have to make sure that my house is in good order.  I'm excited about it all though!  I'll let yall know how it turns out!

My neighbors across the street put up their Christmas tree I'm guessing yesterday.  I was like wow it's early.  But at the same time I looked at Kent and gave him that look like...we need to do that pretty soon.  He gave me that look like....why me?  LOL  My daddy warned him before we got married that I am spoiled and I am a handfull.  But my daddy made me that way....ain't that right daddy?  Go ahead and nod your head.  You know its true...lol.  Well, I need to go and get some stuff done.  I'll talk with yall later!  BYEEEE!

Can we say clean?

My house is clean.  And when I say clean, I mean clean.  Let's just put it this way.  I got up at 10:15.  Threw a pot roast in the crock pot and started cleaning at 11ish.  I got done at about 9:45pm.  I had some breaks here and there, went to Wally World and had supper, but for the most part I was cleaning.  I even have a battle wound to prove it.  I so burnt my arm on the iron...ouch!  I pouted about it for a bit and it still hurts, but I'll be fine.  I still have some more stuff to do tomorrow as well...but after that I am done.  YAY!!!! 

I would have to say that yesterday was a rough day.  Could you tell?  Well, for the most part I am much better today.  I know that the whole miscarriage thing is a battle that I will have to fight from now until I die, but I know with each new day that God slowly takes that pain away and replaces it will hope and wisdom and understanding and patience(and He knows I need that).  I know that eventually in time that the sharp and seeming endless pain with someday be a dull pain that reminds me of just have sovereign God is.  And how we have to completely trust in Him.  He knows what's best for us and I have to continually keep reminding myself that.  I know my time is coming for a baby.  And when that time comes...I'll be ready, because God has trained me to be a parent that knows things can happen and that time is a gift to us...not a right.  We are to make best what God has given us.  If that's the only one thing I learn.  I will treasure my child in away that I wouldn't have before.  Because I will know that the child God gave me is truly a miracle.

I'll talk with yall later!

Regrets

I can honestly say that I don't have many regrets in my life.  But the most recent regret that I have is this:  Right after my miscarriage I had all this time where I could have grieved with full support of my family and friends.  With full attention from my family and friends.  But I thought the sooner I just try and put everything behind me the better off I will be.  At first it was fine, because I knew that at that time trying for another baby was out of the question...atleast until my body healed.  Well, it seems as my body healed, my heart didn't.  My regret is not grieving then.  Cause now its hard to without people thinking, "Is she not over it already?"  No, I'm not over it, no I can't move on so easily.  I never even got to know what my baby was, I never got to hold my baby.  I never got to make memories with my child.  I think that's what makes it hardest.  If someone you loves dies, you have memories to look back on and cherish.  But with miscarriages you don't.  All you have is emptiness.  That's all...no memories.  Just emptiness.

  Today my MIL started talking about someone that I know having another baby, her 5th to be exact and how it was a surprise.  I said that I didn't want to talk about it.  I don't know if she heard me or not but still...she then goes on to tell how this lady's husband was suppose to get fixed but at the last minute chickened out.  And 6 weeks later she is pregnant.  So I get the bright idea to come home and take a pregnancy test.  STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!  It comes back negative.  I'm seriously hoping that I tested too soon.  But I doubt it.  I know God has a purpose for everything and that everything has it's time...but that doesn't mean I understand that.  All I understand is that I am hurting and that I long for the baby I had.  I long for any baby.  I long not to hurt anymore...  I then feel guilty for longing for these things.  Cause I feel like I am not trusting God the way I am sursposed to.  I just hope things clear up soon.  I just hope that someday I look back on this and can see why things happened...

LOL This is too funny!

OK.  This is too funny.  I was sitting here just chillin', so I decided to reorganize my hall closet.  So, I get in there and I am moving stuff around.  Well, I was moving a bunch of Kent's hats and throwing them on the floor to give them away and plop....down falls a pregnancy test.  And yes it's the pregnancy test that Kent was hiding from me.  I just stood there and stared at it...lol.  He said I would never find it.  LOL.  He should know better than to stick it somewhere that I might organize!  I left it sitting on the entertainment center so that will be the first thing he sees when he comes in the door.  And if you are asking yourself....well is she going to use it?  I'm tempted to, but I will have to resist.  I just feel its way too early.  Even though I really, really, really want to take one and test right now.  But I'll try my best to just ignore it and continue cleaning.  I'll talk with yall laters!!!!

Playing the Waiting Game

Last night was a busy little night for me.  I moved my computer from my living room into the extra bedroom/craftroom now/ computer room.  It was a tough little job to do all by myself.  But it got done and I put it all back together.  And it works!  Then I did a bit of cleaning.  Nothing much, just dusted the fans and cleaned the area where the computer used to be.  Then I made some more bracelets and earrings.  I mostly was on and off the internet all night.  Pretty much doing anything to keep myself busy!  I finally went to sleep at like 5 in the morning.  I got up at 12ish and had my quiet time and then went to my parent's house to clean.  I finished there around 2:30.  I came home and just played around on the computer.  I woke the hubby up at 4 and then cooked supper at about 6ish.  Now, I sit here talking to my daddy on IM.  I have no set plans for tonight.  But Kent is off tomorrow/Sunday and Monday.  I'm excited.  We get to go to church and not be worried about getting back in time to get Kent to work or whatever. 

BTW, it has been cold here.  I like it though and hope it stays that way from now on!  It's just not right for it to be cold and Thanksgiving time.  And that goes for Christmas too. 

Right now I am in the period of time where I am waiting to see if I am pregnant.  I am CD29 right now.  But I can't count on that to be a regular cycle cause of my miscarriage.  So I am going to wait a week or so.  I really want to take a test but at the same time, I am scared to.  I've done told yall that, but its just the way I feel.  So now I am playing the waiting game.  FUN FUN!  Anyways, that is all that I have for tonight.  Have a good weekend everyone!

My day!

Well, today was a great day.  The weather here is so much cooler.  It was in the high 50s low 60s.  It is sooo cold out there right now.  It's great.  Kent and I got new cell phones.  They are the Nextel phones.  Pretty neat.  We also went to Wal-Mart and bought some stuff.  I had to get some cork board so I can keep you with all my orders and stuff for bracelets.  I haven't put it up yet, but I hope to before the night is over.  I am so fighting the need to clean.  I want to start my cleaning now.  And in a way I still might do it.  We'll just have to see.  If I am still on at like 2 or 3 in the morning you'll know I'm cleaning!  Oh well.  What can I do?  CLEAN!!!!!  Well, that was my day.  I'll talk with yall laters!!!!

Smallville

I've just got done watching Smallville.  It was a pretty good show.  Kent is way more into it than I am.  I'm watching the Bachelor right now.  We'll see how it goes.

My craftroom is set up and completed!  I am so totally excited about it.  I'm going to go in there in a bit and play around with all my stuff.  I think we are going to move the computer and all the stuff that goes with it in there too.  That will make more room in the living room.  Umm...maybe I can get Kent to that later.  We'll see!  Anyway, I'll talk with ya later!

Good news!

OK.  Many of you already know cause you have read my email already.  But here it goes again for those who haven't!  Today Nov. 11, 2003, I gave my heart to God.  I repented of my sins and gave my life to Him.  I have been struggling with it for a long time.  Finally, Kent just told me to close my eyes and imagine an elevator going down to my heart.  The doors open...what do I see...I saw nothing.  It was complete darkness.  I had to ask myself had I truly asked God to be my Savior and Lord.  Had there truly been a change in my heart.  The only answer I could give myself was no.  I knew then that I wasn't a child of God's.  I knew there would be no peace in my life until I was.  So, I gave my heart to God.  I meant it and I know that there will be a change in me.  I pray that each of you will keep me accountable to that.  I know that I am not perfect and I will sin, but this time I can ask Christ to forgive me of those sins.  And know that I was forgiven.  They are not just words anymore.  If anyone has any questions for me just email me and I will do my best to answer them.  Thanks for listening!

I totally forgot

I totally forgot to upate yall on my friend and her premature baby.  Well, as of a few days ago everything is going just fine.  She had a little girl who they name Caroline Olivia.  They are calling her Carlie.  Carlie should be home by now.  She had a problem where a part of her brain hadn't developed yet (it will develope) that when she got real relaxed she would just stop breathing.  So, now all that is gone I believe.  I'm so happy that she is OK.  God still answers prayers and He still is in the miracle business!  Anyway, I am off to bed now.  I'll talk with yall later!!!

Here are my pictures

I got done scanning faster than I thought I would!  I hope yall enjoy the pictures. Click view larger for best viewing!  I'll talk with yall later!

Average Joe

Today has been a pretty good day.  I cleaned up the house a bit and just messed around in the house.  I watched Average Joe on NBC.  It really is a good show.  I wish she would have kicked Zack off and kept Dennis.  He (Dennis) seemed to be such a nice guy.  And Zack acts like a jerk.  But towards the end of the show Zack started acting a bit better.  I don't know if it was just for show or what.  There is supposed to be a twist on next week's show.  I can't wait.  Tonight is the last shift Kent has to work for the next two nights.  I am so glad he gets two days off.  I enjoy having him all day long!  I'm going to scan some pictures that I got developed later on tonight and I'll post them for yall.  It will give me something to do later on tonight!  I'll see yall then!!

Nothing really

Well, today was a very uneventful day.  I got up this morning after only having 3 1/2 to 4 hours of sleep.  I tried my little heart out to go to sleep, but never could.  Anyways, I got up and got dressed to go to church.  I went to Eastaboga.  It was pretty good.  They just moved into a new building and it is really nice.  After church I came home and got into some comfortable clothes and headed to Granny's to eat lunch.  Like always, it was good.  I came home and snuggled up to my hubby and took a nap.  Then I got up and warmed up some plates from Granny's.  I then sat down and watched some TV.  Now, I have nothing to do so I am just going to lay around and chill.  I'll talk with yall later!

And the waiting begins

OK.  The waiting begins...as we see if this month is the month we are pregnant.  I have about 2 weeks before I will even think about testing.  We'll just have to wait and see.  And I am not one who is made of patience.  I'll keep yall updated as much as possible. 

I had a somewhat busy day.  I went to Wal-Mart, Winn-Dixie, and Food World.  I had to buy some groceries that will hopefully get us through the next two weeks.  I also bought some cleaning supplies.  My marathon of cleaning will be beginning soon.  Nov. 23rd-27th.  It will be a blast...umm yeah sure.  Anywho, and after all that I went to the ATM.  I came home ate supper and watched a movie with the hubby.  Now I sit here trying to get sleepy so I can go to bed.  I guess that is all.  I'll talk with yall later!!!!!!!!!  Byeeeeeeeeeee!

Hahahaha!!!!

OK.  This was just too funny not to share!!!  LOL!  Let's see how long it takes him to realize it's here.  That will teach him to read my journal more often!  Hehehe....hohoho....hahaha.......

I think Kent was like 13 or 14 in this picture.  I think.  Not too sure.  But man, even back then I thought he was "dreamy".  I still do.....most of the time.  Hehehee!!!!

Is it Friday already!!?!??!

Well, its Friday.  My cleaning day.  Woohoo!!!  I'm just waiting on Kent to go to work and then I am gonna clean a bit.  Nothing major.  That is the week of Thanksgiving.  Kent's grandmother (Granny) always has this huge family gathering for Thanksgiving (The Owens family) and then Christmas (The Cook family).  Well anyways, she has been cleaning since November 1st and she ain't gonna stop until its Thanksgiving.  She does it all.  Windows, walls, carpets, floors, everything.  So I figured I would do the same.  But only for a week.  I don't think I could handle it for a whole month.  Sometimes some of the people from the family like to come to our house and see what we've "done to the place" i.e. they are nosey.  That's ok though...I'm nosey too....  But anyways, I want the house spotless...well as much as possible.  I am also having a jewelry party Nov. 18, but I've done told yall about that.  I'll clean a bit that day, but nothing special.  Oh well.  Nothing new happened today...here's the break down of my day....I got up at 12 went to the parent's house and cleaned.  I then went to Kent's parent's house and picked up Kerith and took her to the bead store to pick out some charms.  I brought her back and then went to the bank to see my moma and give her my Finding Nemo DVD.  I got some stamps while I was there.  The I went to the post office and mailed all my jewelry party invites.  Then I came home.  That's about it.  Nothing exciting huh?  Oh well.  Maybe tomorrow.  Auburn plays Ole Miss.  Auburn is probably going to lose, but I've still got my fingers crossed for them!!!  Well, that's all for tonight...well maybe.  Depends on how late I stay up..hehee.  Byeeeee!

Yoga

Yes, this is like the third entry in the past 24 hours.  But that's OK cause you know you love reading this stuff.  OK.  So I got some Yoga DVDs cause I have heard so many good things about Yoga.  Well, I just got through doing 2 of them.  They were OK.  I mean a lot of the positions were a little hard for me since I have never done it before.  And there were some I couldn't do at all.  Which was a little disheartening.  But then there we some that I really could tell I was doing right and it felt good.  Then there we some that relaxed me and just made me sleepy.  I'll have to use those when I got to bed.  Anywhoo, we'll see how it goes as I continue to try and get the hang of it all. 

My stomach has been hurting me pretty much all night.  I have no idea why.  All the foods I ate should have agreed with me.  I think a lot of it has to do with it getting closer and closer to the time where I can start worrying about am I pregnant this month or do I have to try all over again next month.  It's not so much worrying if I am or not, more I just want to know so I can do whatever step comes next....know what I mean?  Oh well.

Tomorrow here is what I have to do: Clean my parent's house.  Go to the bead store to pick up some charms and beads.  Come home, find something to cook.  Cook it and then relax.  Maybe, I can fit somemore Yoga in there somewhere.  We'll see.  Anyways, I guess this is all for tonight....well its really today(2:44am).  But you know what I mean!  Byeeeee!

Friends

Hi again.  I'm in the process of cooking and thought I would write again.  Kent and I went to Wal-Mart and turned in my film to be developed.  I'm hoping to have the pictures back by about Sunday or Monday so yall will get to see some more pics of us.  We also bought some stain to stain the shelves with for my craft room.  Kent is in there now staining them. 

Tonight Friends comes on.  I am so excited.  I think these pics are from tonight's episode.  I think.  Anyway...enjoy!  I'll talk with yall later!!!

My mail lady needs to be fired!

OK.  Today I was sitting in my living room with the front door wide open...rememeber my door was WIDE OPEN!  OK.  So the mail lady drives by and puts the mail in the mailbox and drives off.  Well, Kent goes and gets the mail and comes back in.  He hands me the mail and I look down and see this little slip that says you have a package but you since you weren't home it will be waiting for you at the Post Office.  WHAT?  I'm not at home?  Really?  Cause I just saw YOU drive by MY HOUSE, thus that means I am at HOME.  I was so mad cause I have been waiting on that package for like a week.  So, Kent calls his Granny to ask her to ask his grandfather to pick the package up for us since he works at the Post Office.  I still just couldn't believe she just drove right by.  I mean we were home.  Both cars where in the drive way and everything.  I was just so shocked.  Oh well.  Hopefully, I will get my package this evening something.  I need to go and dry to hair and get dressed to go to Wal-Mart.  I have to go take my film to be developed.  I'll talk with yall later!

Must sleep....

Well, today was a busy day again.  We went to Griffin's and got Granny a bday gift.  It was so pretty!!!  Anywho, we then went and helped rip apart a house that will eventually be torn down and replaced with a trailer by me and the hubby.  Anyways, after that we came home and took showers and went to Anniston.  We went to Sticks and Stuff and Haverty's to look at living room furniture.  We found a few things we liked, but haven't decided just yet what we are going to do.  We then went to Ruby Tuesday's and got something to eat and brought it home.  My daddy then came and delievered my desk to put in my craft room.  I am really excited about it!  After they we watched Smallville which was pretty good.  I then watched the Bachelor.  I only watch the last couple of episodes cause to me those are the only good ones.  Anyways, I am about to fall asleep as I type this.  I've been up since 5:30 this morning.  Hopefully, I will sleep better tonight!!!  I'll talk with yall later!!!

Like whoa

I can't believe I didn't post any yesterday!!!  I guess I was busy.  I didn't go to bed until like 9AM!!!  Kent was at work until 8:30AM and I just couldn't go to sleep!  I cleaned my whole entire house, I removed all the paints drips off the floor from painting, I read some chapters in a book I'm reading, I cooked Kent some pancakes, and I did anything I could think of to make me sleepy.  It never worked!  Oh well.  Yesterday was a pretty busy day.  I got up around 2 in the afternoon and helped Ket put in all the outlets and switches for our new room...well I mostly watched...but still.  I washed some dishes and cleaned out the kitty litter box.  I then cooked supper and it was pretty good.  We went to see Granny and Pops (Kent's grandparents).  We were trying to be sneaky and grab a ring of Granny's so we could size it and buy her another for her Bday.  We were successful!  We went to Wal-Mart to get her a Bday card and looked at their jewelry.  Nothing worth buying there.  We are going to Griffin's today (a town jeweler to is wonderful...expensive though) and see if we can find anything there.  After we went to Wal-Mart we went to my parent's house to see them and I had to pick up some stuff for a jewelry party I am having Nov. 18th!  If you live near by come and join the party!!!!  Anywho, after going to my parent's house we went to Kent's parent's house and talked with them about a few things for a bit.  Then we came home and watched Finding Nemo.  That is such a cute movie.  Too funny!!!!  It had me and Kent cracking up!  Anyway, after that we went to bed.  I woke up this morning about 5:30 and couldn't go back to sleep.  So here I am now...I am fixing to go hop in the shower and then we are off to Griffin's!  I'll hopefully write sometime later.  Byeeeeeee!

Jingle Bells

Well today was a short day.  I got up and just messed around the house a little bit.  I washed clothes and then went to Wal-Mart and Food World.  I ran into SO many people that I graduated high school with.  I was like is this some kind of class reunion!?!?!  I also ran into a family member and an old teacher and some other people that I personally wish I never ran into.  I swear everyone was at Wally!  Anyway, I think in a few mins. I am going to go and try and clean up some paint that was dripped on the floor.  That will be a ton of fun..woohoo.  Then I may clean my walls.  Yes, you read right...I am going to clean my walls.  They get dusty after a while.  So...my night is full of fun.  I don't know if I will be able to handle it....I'll manage.

A few mins. ago I was folding clothes and this commerical came on and it had Christmas music on it and it was like this burst of Christmas spirit just came over me.  I was like whoa is Christmas here yet!?!!?!  I wish.  I love Christmas.  I can't wait until it comes.  I am hoping for a Christmas present from God this year.  You know what I mean???  A BABY!  We'll see.  If not then I know in due time I'll get my little present!!!  Well, I gotta go and do all the fun things I have planned for myself!  Later Gator!

Misson Completed...well almost

OK.  That extra bedroom/craft room is done.  All I have to do is clean it up and it is done.  Well, Kent also has to put new covers over the outlets.  But besides that its done.  I can't wait to get all my crafty stuff in there!

Well, I guess I am off to clean in a bit.  I'll talk with yall later!

Is anyone Christmas shopping yet???

I've started Christmas shopping WAY earlier than I ever have before.  I have gotten 3 people their gifts so far.  I am way excited.  I've found some great deals and jumped on them.  A few of the places I have shopped are OldNavy.com (go to the bargain section), Goody's (they were having a 50% off sale plus an additional 25% off sale), and finally I found this great online place.  I saw it advertised on TV, its called Overstocked.com.  I found a great gift there!  Yall really need to check it out and explore for gifts for any holiday. 

Nothing new today.  We continued to work on my new craft room.  We didn't get that much done cause Kent's stomach was hurting him.  Poor thing. 

WARNING: Writer about to get real cheesey...warning.....   I love my husband.  He is sooo sweet.  Although there are times I would love to ring his neck, for the most part he is the best!  When I need to talk, he listens.  He is always wanting the best for me.  He tells me how beautiful I am, when at the time I think I look the worse!  He writes me the sweetest letters.  And was there for me to cry on in the first days of our loss when I needed him the most.  He even took a couple days off from work so that he could take care of me.  And then we took a get-away vacation to Florida for a few days to relax after all we'd been through.  He got the best room for us and only the finest things for us those days.  He pampered me like crazy.  He gives me full body massages..WITHOUT me asking!!!!  He is just the best.  Sorry for all of that, but I just wanted to brag on my hubby for a bit!

Well, I'm off.  I'll talk with yall later!

I'm sad...

I'm sad.  I am on a pregnancy board called, "Maybe this Month", well one of the ladies had already gotten pregnant and she just hangs around and talks with us and just lets us know what is going on in her journey and stuff like that.  Well, I looked down and to see how far along she was and she is due March 2, 2004.  It hit me...I was due Feb 27, 2004 and by this time I would know the sex of the baby.  I would feel it kicking me and moving around.  I would be somewhat big by now and the world would know I was preggo just by looking at me.  It's so sad.  I know that I am TTC now and that one day I will have another chance for a baby, but it's hard not to be selfish and want the one I lost.  It stinks having to start all over again.  But one thing I do know is this...once that baby comes I will be glad for all I went through, because when I look into that baby's eyes and he/she looks back at me it will be soooo worth this.  It's just getting there that really is hard.  And watching people around me who got preggo the same time I did to be having all these new experiences.  I'll cope with it all...I just needed to get it off my chest...whew...I feel a little bit better.
