Ah, good weekend

But such a long weekend. We have done a ton of yard work. We have had problems with the kids in the neighborhood making off with our kids toys. Or breaking them!! So, we just put the kids toys in our gate and shed. We cleaned up all the dog mess in the yard. Today we cleaned out the dog kennel. That was an awful mess. Layers of straw from the winter when it would freeze. Its all nice and tidy now. We had to put another door on. The dogs dug through the wood of the fence.
I got all of my financial aid. I am so very excited. My classes are paid through to October.

Whewww....

Today I am working on what could be the hardest assignment I have had to date. Research!! Eeek!
I will probably be on it for a while tonight. I hope I do it well.
I cut all of my hair off. And Nikki's too!!! I love it, feels so free.

I've gone wireless

I really like it too. All but the fact that if I turn on my cordless phone the internet on my laptop goes out.
The kids were good today. They sure can get dirty and get a bunch of "boo boos" in hurry. I love those critters so much.

OMG, good day!

First, the kids were awesome this morning. They didn't wake us up and fended for themselves. Well, Nikki got up and made cereal all around, set up the cartoons, and changed a pee diaper. So, we got to sleep until 10:30! Then my dad called. He says he will be here between 1 and 2. We then ran to London to pick up my new LAPTOP!!!!!!!!!!! Woohoo, Rob got it for me! Then we got a fan. Came home, straightened the house. Dad got here around 1:30. He said he would give me the money for my software. Score! I feel loved again. His wife was with him and they all had fun with y kids. The kids behaved. Bradley took a nap after they left. Poor guy was sleepy.
Then I fiddled with my new laptop. Started a short story that I plan on entering into a contest. Fun times. Then I made dinner. Sloppy Joe turnovers, the kids fave food. It was an awesome day. Really.

Just keep me sane, lord, keep me sane

It has been hectic and I am tired all the time. As bad as it is now, how much worse will I feel when it just keeps getting harder? I figure that the next 7 weeks will either make me invincible or see me to a nut house.
We took Nikki to her Ear, Nose and Throat doctor today. Not a good appointment. We went to have her left ear checked. It is the one chock full of wax. Well, still waxy. It is hard because of the dried blood and wax all congealing together. The doctor wants us to use the debrox for 2 weeks and then come back. She also has fluid behind her right ear. Not much hearing in it. She also has a weird purple nose thing.

Ah, Sunday

This week has been kinda nutty. I have been through a lot. School is over til Tuesday. My work is completed til Thursday. I just have to turn it in. It is hard, but so very worth it. I am so extremely excited! If you guys could keep up hoping I get my aid, that would be a big help though!! My dad told e o when I asked him to borrow money to get a laptop and my software I need. Bummer. I need the software, I can live without the laptop though. Guess I need a way to pull between $60 and $150 out of my butt by June.
I a so nervous about Nikki going under anesthesia Friday. It is so simple, but so scary. I am going to call the doctor this wekk to ask if that is what they are doing. Just to be very prepared.

Blog number 61!!!

Wow, that's a lot. I never write stuff down.
Boy am I glad this week is over!! Well, not all the way over, but mostly. I am so tired, grumpy and stressed its not funny. I love college so far, but it is going to be a whole lot of work. This week was an easy week. Not next week! Woo, 9 assignments due between Sunday and Thursday! That is crazy!
Bryan had school in Ashville today. He loves that center. I really hope we can move there by the time the new school year starts. I think Nikki would do better, it is a wonderful district.
Nikki went to school yesterday with a cough. Well at noon the school called as I was walking out the door. She had thrown up. So, we go to get her. The Vice-Principal comes to say that she had a problem involving Nikki that morning on the bus. Nikki fell asleep and a student put a plastic bead in her ear. It was in deep enough that they removed it with tweezers. So, we went home, called the doctor. They wanted to see her this morning.
Her ear that had the bead in it was ok, a scratch is all. But, her left ear was impacted with wax. Dr. Moore tried to clean it out and ended up scratched her ear and made it bleed. She referred us to an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor. That doctor will gas Nikki so that he can clean her ears. The wax is so bad it's like she has a wax ear plug in. She has 0 hearing in her left ear right now. They can't see any part of her ear drum. Poor kid!
Bradley is a terrible 2 year old, haha. Tantrums daily, BITING!! That is going to stop. Plus, he has decided that Rob is no longer allowed to touch me. If he hugs me, Bradley runs up and charges Robert until he lets me go. Not good.

Party Time!!

Bradley had a ball and got tons of toys. A bunch of people came. He played and laughed and just had fun.
We met some new friends at his party. Britney and Laila were the sweetest ever! Laila is so shy. And Jennielle and her kids are awesome!

Big week

Tomorrow is Bradley's birthday and his party. Big day, sad day. I need to buy soda, ice and cups, plus some pizza. Lots of deco needs done. I hope people come to his part this year.
I also have home work to do this weekend and some evals to do. I start college Monday. I am excited and nervous! Lots of homework to do this week!!!!!!!

Maybe not sick due to sadness

Could be the fact that I was getting a stomach virus. Bradley woke up at 4am after having a poop. It went through his night time diaper and onto the floor. He screamed, Rob got him. I gave him a bath, Rob washed his blankets. Then he was up until 6:30am. By the time he was tired, Bryan was up and then at 5am Nikki got up. They were up. Nikki went to school at 8, by then, I was feeling ill. Bryan fell asleep at 9, and I did to. Woke at 11:30. Went to pay some bills. Got something to make for dinner. Really need another nap. I feel awful.
