Disappointment turns into wonderful Mother - Daughter Time...

I was so disappointed not being able to go to my girlfriend Amanda's house today to scrapbook with her and my friend Sandy. I have been looking forward to this for days. Wally has had to work this weekend with the reserves, and besides doctor appointments, I have not been out of my house for over two weeks. It was going to be nice to get out of here for awhile. Unfortunately, I have been up since around 2 this morning with an upset belly and have had to pay a "few visits to lou" (Is that even how you spell it?).
Anyway, shortly after calling Amanda and Sandy and telling them I would not be able to join them, Tiffany walks into my room, pale as a ghost, and says, "Mommy, I don't feel so good. My tummy hurts, and I just threw up." Of course I felt so bad for my girl. But, unfortunately, she felt like she needed to expand on her, "throw up". She went on to tell me that she thinks it was onions and black olives from the pizza she had consumed for dinner the night before, and that it tasted "yucky". My belly, already having conversation within, didn't much like that explanation either. So, we both laid down in the bed and went back to sleep. We have spent our entire day in the bed, napping, watching TV, and talking, which is something we have needed to do for quite sometime. By the afternoon, we both began to feel somewhat better, but we just decided to take it easy for the day. We have had talks, and watched the Disney Channel, oh and by the way, that Zack and Cody are adorable little troublemakers. We also had little tickle session, which in all honesty probably wasn't such a great idea, due to the fact that my belly began to talk and rumble again. We just spent some amazing Mother-Daughter time together and I have enjoyed myself. I know, sounds kind of funny, being that we both have been feeling yuck, but, I have enjoyed spending the day with my girl.
As for Amanda and Sandy, I really missed you guys today. But thank you for being so understanding. I can't wait to schedule another scrapbook day.

GREAT FRIENDS ARE HARD TO COME BY......

Well, I have to give a shout out to all the girls who have been helping me out since my little surgery ordeal. Lands sakes....they say it takes a village to raise a kid......stink.....it takes a village to take care of me and my stupid foot.

Thank you all for EVERYTHING!!!! Amanda P., Sandi, Debbie M., Kim, Brenda, Mandy, Marcel, Amanda G., Debbie D., Michelle, ......gosh....I hope I haven't left anyone out. If I did....please forgive me. Blame it on the drugs...the ones that I haven't been able to take since I am having another surgery next week. Anyway......thank you for the meals for my family, for watching Tiffany, tending to my wounds, keeping me company, for checking on me everyday, and most of all, for ALL your prayers. I don't know what I would do without you all. You are wonderful girls.........and of course the husbands that helped out as well!!! Rod and Marty for helping Wally out. LOVE YOU ALL!!!!

WALLY...MY HUSBAND, MY FRIEND, MY PRINCE & OF COURSE MY BIG DADDY


Well, had surgery on my foot three weeks ago, and just now starting to be able to get up and get around a bit. I guess the last three weeks while I have been piled up in my bed, with my foot propped up, I could have started this blogging thing......again. Anyway...... It's weird how much one takes advantage of being able to walk and get around.

My husband, Wally, has been such a prince. I have had to keep my foot elevated and had to stay off of it for two weeks. My husband took leave at work so he could "be at my beckon call". I swear, to this day I don't know what I did to deserve him. I don't much like having to depend on people for things. I am very independent. So having to need someone to bring me something to drink, or eat, or turn a light on or off.....drove me crazy. I can't imagine how it was for him. I really tried not to be overbearing or overwhelming. I apologized every time I asked for something. I just felt bad. The apologizing irritated him more than anything. But, he sure was a trooper. Anything I needed, he made sure I had. What a guy. He is amazing!!!!! I love him so much!!!!

Next week going to have another surgery, and bless his heart, he is going to be there for me again!!!! I am so excited but scared........going to have my breast reduction done. Lord knows I have needed this for years. Wish me luck.

Blogging

Well, I am going to try this blogging thing. I always have a lot to say, just don't know if anyone is interested......hehehe. I do like going and reading everyone's blogs and responding, so we are going to give this a whirl. Just let me know if I get a little boring. And bare with me while I figure out how to make this page cute, cause right now I know it is really yucky looking. Thanks ya'll.
