  • Sad Day

    Hi ya'll -

    I writing this with a sad heart.....mom passed away around 3:15 am this morning. My brother-in-law called us about 3:30 am and we got to mom's house about 15 minutes later.
    Family & Friends will be Sunday afternoon 3 - 4:30 pm and the funeral will be Noon on Monday. Flowers have been picked out and paid for....and all the other stuff that has to be done is done....Now we are just waitin and do what ever we are suppose to do....

    I guess that is it for now....I just wanted to post an update - I know it's been a week or so....She just went down hill so fast - every night we went over to see her and knew it would not be much longer....It's hard as hell for us but I know she would not want to come back.

    R.I.P. mom - we all love you!!!

    Good night ya'll - ((hugs)) Dawn

  • A lazy Sunday...kinda

    Today was just a lazy day at home....Bub & I watched the movie "The Brave One" with Jodie Foster....man oh man it was a good movie but it also makes you think too.Anyway I won't tell anything about it so that way if someone out there has not seen it I won't give anything away.

    I got all of Kay's clothes washed and she is good to go for school on Tuesday....I think we got her book bag packed with everything - I know I forgot a few things but I will get the other things in time. Way too much junk they ask for....and alot of it is just extras....I still can't believe she is going to 6th grade.... I don't know where the time has gone....Brandon is going to 10th grade - wow in 3 years he will be done with high school....My oh my.....my children are no longer little....both of my boys are taller then me and Kay is not far....

    I have not chatted with my mother-in-law today but hubby was over there today and she was doing OK.As for anything else I don't know and can't worry about it.

    For the last 5 years I have had Labor day off....and that is because I have worked for the school system...well this summer I got a summer job - I work at Sheetz...it's an upscale gas station/coffee shop/made to order fresh food....My niece works there and told me that they were hiring...I have been there since 6/30 I work the early shift 6 am - 2 pm...which has been nice and I have weekends off - ALWAYS! Now I took a cut in pay .42 cents less but I'm getting 8 more hours a week and I also get paid every 2 weeks....At school I got paid once a month.

    Well I made up my mind not to go back to school....of course Kay won't be there anymore....there is still alot of drama gooing on there and too we have more kids coming. I would be baking more rolls then ever!And well to be honest I'm just ready for a change so I told the big boss who found me working there....and then started bugging me if I was coming back to school or not.....finally after a week I told him NO I was not coming back. I'm still kinda shocked that I'm not going back but not really.

    I like the job I do at Sheetz....I'm busy pretty much the whole time I'm there but of course they have just as much drama but if someone could get some back bone and get rid of the ones who don't want to work....And hire some that do - things could go alittle better....So I'm working tomorrow but it's time and a half....which I love and there is a store meeting this week so that is extra 2 hours for me. And I love getting paid every 2 weeks - it sure does help out!!!

    welp I guess this is it for now....gotta head to mom's house and do her feet and get her ready for bed....
    We have been watching the News off and on all day - I have a school friend who lives down in Houma LA. and I'm praying that her & her family have gotten out of there and is somewhere safe.
    I'm praying for everyone down that way and it won't be no where near as bad as it was 3 years ago. But it don't look good - hopefully who ever is staying will be safe.

    Good night.....And a Happy Labor Day to all....

  • Can't believe.....

    Last Saturday I'm sitting in here and I'm updating hubby's myspace page - everything seems fine with my laptop....next thing I know my screen goes black....I'm thinking WTF??? Shut it down wait a few minutes and cut it back on and still nothing but a black screen...for over an hour I keep checking my laptop and it's still doing the same thing....I'm thinking Oh no I have messed some thing up again and I may have crashed it....Well, Sunday night when hubby went to work he took it with him and gave it to a guy who does these things on the side (a pc geek god!) - well he called me today and told me the good news and bad.....The computer is NOT fried but the monitor is!!!! And to get it working I would have to pay 400. - 500.  or just hook it up to a regular monitor and never move it again.....All I could say is CRAP....crap...crap....so hubby & I talked and he told me to go look up laptops and see what they are going for....
    For my birthday the plan was to get me a new camera - just waiting on taxes to come in....well now this has happened I'm out with no laptop....so hubby said I have a choice get the new camera and deal with my laptop hooked up in the bedroom on the old monitor or go in halfs with him and get me a new laptop.....Well my camera still works good I'll wait on that...... I would go in halfs with him.....so this afternoon I went to Walmart and got me a new laptop.....it's an Acer - it's alittle smaller then my old one but it's up today on everything and so much faster then the old one....I'm still in shock of what happen to the old one - not that it was really old....only had it just alittle over 2 yrs....Oh well crap happens and I'm just glad we had the extra funds for me to get a new one...To be honest I hated having to share the home pc with everyone....I love having my laptop and I was so having withdraws from not having it here at home.....so I have a new one now and the kids will enjoy the old one hooked up to a big monitor now.....at least it has has more memory then the old pc does.....

    here's a picture of it......

    New laptop 001

    I love the fact with this one when I want to download pictures I can just put the memory card right in to the laptop and download....no more having to download the camera program and so on....
    Welp hubby just left for work and it's snowing real light outside... Didn't know it was gonna do any of that...now tomorrow will be down right chilly 38 for the high and coming in tomorrow night snow, sleet, and freezing rain....Now I hope it does it early enough to stick to the ground and by the time we get up there is enough on the roads for school to be closed! We have not used 1 snow day and I wanna a snow day!!!! I can only hope and pray!!!
    Welp I'm off of here for bed....hope everyone is well and doing good. Stay warm and be safe!
    Good night.

  • My heart is breaking.....

    WOW - I didn't know it would hurt so much but it does - Mike has moved out...his choice....and I told him it was up to him.I was not putting him out but he said he was moving out and that was it - now of course he is just down the road but this weekend he is moving to Charlottesville which is about 2 hours away...He is moving with a girl & her family there.....don't ask - I'm still trying to figure this one out.......
    But also there is a big stink between him & my niece due to a phone bill that he owes and of course he has no money or job to pay it but wants to be an ass about - so I'm upset with him about it - I'm just upset all the way around -
    Dad doesn't seem upset and he probably isn't but well I'm mom and well I;m upset!!!! He is my first born and well I want so much for him and he is just not getting it - I know I have to let him go and let him find his way but it's not easy. And yes he drives me MAD!!! No job - knowing he has to find one and well now he just wants out of here - I feel like I failed somewhere - just where I don't know......
    And I tried so hard not to cry when he was here packing his stuff but well I couldn't hold it in and of course he then cried to and wanted to know why was I doing this to him - what am I doing to you??? You are choosing to move out -
    Oh well.....I just needed to get this out - I'm off to tuck Kay into bed....and goto bed myself......Thank God Tomorrow is Friday!!!!
