I hope everyone has had a good week and has a good weekend also. Marc and I will be seeing Wall-e tonight! popcorn:: Im so excited. He looks so adorable.
 
So, I went to the doctor yesterday, and he put me on 2 perscriptions for a month. I'm taking a muscle relaxer to help with my neck, and I'm taking a headache mediciane twice a day to help eliminate the headaches. I'm going to go back in a month to tell him how things are going. He wants me to not work out until Wednesday, so the mediciane can get in my system (he definitly thinks the working out is a headache trigger, but he doesn't want me to stop, because it's good to workout). I had an MRI done 2 years ago for my neck, and he wants to see if the MRI showed results for the brain. If it didn't, than I may go have an MRI done to see if I have any fluid on the brain, or anything else bad. He's not thinking I have an aneurism or brain tumor, but he doesn't want to rule that out either - so we'll see what happens.

Why is it that I always have to have an ongoing saga in my life???? Now it's this headache thing, last year it was my knees (which still bother me today, just not as bad), 2 years ago it was my Raynauds and Ocular Rosacea (which I will have the rest of my life). I'm to young for all these issues - sorta ticks me off!!!!:headache:


Last night we went to our town fest, and it was alot of fun. We went with my friend and her DD, and the kids had a blast!!!!:banana: The weather was awesome, and mosquitoes were totally under control. We didn't get home until midnight. Tonight my friend and I are going back, but the kids are staying at home with my mom. It'll be fun to go to the fest without the kids - I've never done that before :)



I hope everyone has had a good week and has a good weekend also. Marc and I will be seeing Wall-e tonight! popcorn:: Im so excited. He looks so adorable.

How was the movie?
Did you like it????




Well, I gotta run and get ready for work
Have a good day today everyone!! :wave:
 
Hi all! Sorry I haven't checked in lately. I have decided to have a small nervous breakdown, I hope to have it completed by tomorrow. I'll let ya'll know!

sandy - I am sorry you are still having medical issues! Hang in there! Enjoy yourself tonite!

cb - how was wall-e?

James' paintball party went well. All the boys had a great time. I see a father son group looming in the future - the dads looked a little jealous!

See ya'll later!
 
Sandy- I hope all of your test come out fine. Thats kind of scary having so many issues to have to deal with. Good luck!

About the paintball- I think it definitely turned into a father son thing with my family. My uncle and my cousin, my dad and marc (since my dad doesnt have an actual son), and my dads friend who is like my dads adopted, yet very old son. (my dad in his late 40's his friend in his late 20/early 30's)

I know several other teams that consist of a dad and several sons and cousins.


Wall-e: Well i am upset because I didnt get to see it. Marc and I had plans to go last night, but had to make a trip to the grocery store because we had no food in the house. Yesterday was so busy that we went as soon as I got off work. we put away groceries and went straight to the theater about 30 minutes early. Got our tickets and went inside and couldnt find any seats that werent in the front 2 rows. everywhere there was 5 year olds sprawled across 4 seats to reserve them. I didnt want to watch a movie Ive been looking forward to for a year in the front row and give myself a neck ache, so I got a refund and well go sunday instead. (marc works today) I was so dissapointed. This is the most excited ive been about a movie in a really long time.

speaking of movies: did anyone see camp rock, or their kids see it? I decided to watch it on disney.com and it was actually very good.

This is a super quick post this morning.

Today is our 4th of July parade, which is always fun!!!
I've got my van in the parade, and my SIL is helping me throw candy. Last year I handed out coupons, but I decided to not to do that this year. Out of 3 parades, I only had 4 coupons redeemed, so that's why I decided to not waste the time and energy doing it.

Before I leave for the parade, I need to go to 8am Mass. I was going to go yesterday (that's when we always go) but it was such a nice day, that I let the kids play in the pool instead. I was going to make Stephanie come with me to Mass this morning, but I decided to let her sleep in, because today is a long day. The girls are in the parade with the FD, and then we walk the fest afterwards, and then we have the fireworks tonight. So, it's a lot going on!!!


Thanks for the all the well wishes from all :)
It's always nice to know that others care about you :goodvibes


I see the mods moved the smilies back around.
Which is good, because I missed having :cheer2: :sad2: :rolleyes: on the main page. I still don't know why :santa: is here - surely it's not used very much:sad2: .


Well, I gotta grab a bite to eat and then get ready for church.
Have a good day everyone!!! :wave:
 
sandy - how was the parade? I hope ya'll had a great time!

I can't chat long this am - I stayed up too late last night which means I stayed in bed too long this am! I can't wait for the coffee to start working!! I'll check in later!
 
:surfweb:

Yesterday was a good, fun day!!!! :cool1:
The parade went well - lots of people!!!
Then we hung out at the fest afterwards. We watched the bed races (the FD won :thumbsup2 ), and then there was a pizza tasting competition. We have 14 pizza joints in our town, and 7 of them competed. You graded them on taste, crust, and sauce - it was really fun!!!! :)
Then we came home for a short while, and then went back in the cold and rain to watch the fireworks - it was a great day!!!!!:goodvibes


Well, it's time for me to go get ready for work
Have a good day today everyone!! :wave:
 
My DH is a VFF also. I just found this post and am subscribing.
hi!


Sandy-why do you guys have your fest the weekend before the 4th? any particular reason?

Oh and I saw walle. It was really good! definitely a movie everyone would enjoy. Marc really liked it so that makes me glad. Im one step closer to converting him to a disney person.:stir: mwahaha

Yes, there is a reason actually ::yes::
All the towns do there fests different weekends so they all can have more business. When a neighboring town has their fest the same weekend, the fests are never as busy. Another reason is 3 towns here share the same school system, so if these 3 towns had there fests and parades the same weekend, than the school bands and other groups wouldn't be able to do all the parades, and would have to pick just one - that wouldn't be fair to the other towns.

I'm glad you guys finally saw Wall-E, and that you liked it :) I'm looking forward to seeing it, but I can't see me loving it - I like charcters that are more cuddly. This is how I feel about CARS. I like it, but I don't love it, because there's nothing very cuddly about cars.




Well, I gotta run and get ready for my day - the girls have to be at daycare early for a field trip to a museum. It's hard for me to get moving today, becauase they muscle relaxers make me sleep so good, and then feel so groggy in the morning - I'm not sure how I"m feeling about that.

Have a good day today everyone!!! :wave:
 
Hi everyone!

fortheluvofpooh - Welcome!!

cb - I am glad you liked the movie!!


sandy - I am glad ya'll had such a good time! Hopefully, you will get used to the medicine and you won't feel so groggy.

thats pretty smart and very considerate of the towns to all take turns for their parades. I cnat imagine having 3 towns in a school district!:scared1: My hometown just built its 4th highschool.

Walle may not be a cuddly character, but you really fall in love with him. the cars characters were just characters, but you really feel for walle. Since they dont talk much there is a lot of body language and humor and that really pulls it all together. Now I am absolutely in love with him.

Oh Marc it away until thursday:sad1: hes staying up in the other town where hes working because they are having training that he wants to go to. At 4.50 for a gallon of gas it not worth it to drive home for a few hours. Hes also working on the 4th so hes hoping for some good experience. I know that with all of the fires in our general area that cities have started banning any fireworks or public displays. Anyone elses' area doing this?
 
I am soooo sleepy this morning! I can't keep my eyes open. James & I weigh in tonite. We went late last week because of his party. I don't think this will be a good week, but we will see. I was having trouble updating my ticker on Friday, so I decided to wait until tonite to try again.
We got a Wii Fit (of course my mom found it!). I really like it!! The kids and I have been enjoying it alot.
Cheerleading /football registration starts at the park on Saturday. I am not siper excited about the process. I am not thrilled about starting on a holiday weekend! I have a list of things to do to get ready before Friday (since the bank will be closed).
Well, everyone have a great day!!
 
I didn't take my muscle relaxer last night, and I'm feeling more like myself this morning. I'm calling the doctor today and telling him that I can't do that pill anymore :sad2: I'm also not to happy with that headache pill. It also makes me groggy, and I feel myself becoming dependent on it already. Last night I had such a bad headache, because the pill wore off at 2pm, and I can't take another dose tell about 4pm, and by then it was to late. So, I"m going to let my doctor know all this, and hopefully he can perscribe something else {fingers crossed}.

Speaking of last night......
I went to training on how to be an Extrodinary Minister of Holy Communion. I'm really enjoying being more involved with the church, and meeting new people:goodvibes .

Today, I'm home, and getting ready for the party on Friday. My house, inside and outside, needs to be cleaned up. With it being nice out, we are also going to try to get some pool time too, so it should be a very productive day!!!!:)


CB - No bannings here :sad2: Come to think of it, I don't think that's ever happened.
**You're making me really want to go see Wall-E :)

Karen - If it makes you feel any better, this is not a good weight week for me either :sad2: Between not exercising (doctors orders), and eating way to much crap at the fest, I'm feeling a little fat lately - so you're not alone :hug:


Well, I better get this day started - have a good day everyone!!! :wave:
 
Yesterday was a pretty good day at my house:)
I got up kinda late (8am, that's really late for me), I walked 2 miles (a slow walk for me, so I didn't trigger a worse headache), took the girls to the park, came home and spent time with the girls in the pool, then tidy'd up the back yard while the girls were still in the pool (lots of weeds to pull, and had to get things cleaned after the siding and windows were put in). Then after dinner I played with the girls a little - it was a nice day!!!! I did a little cleaning inside the house, but very little, so I need to do the rest today after work :rolleyes: Oh well, I felt it was more important for the girls to have a good day yesterday (I'm really trying to make the best of my Wednesdays off).


My headache is much better today :) I took no mediciation yesterday (I wanted to get it all out of my system - I figured a day at home would be good for that). I read online that I could be suffering from a lot of rebound headaches, because of the amount of mediciation I take (either perscription or over the counter). So, I'll take nothing today too, and we'll see what happens. I decided to not call the doctor, because there's 2 different ways to take the mediciation he gave me. I tried it the way he said (2 pills in the am, and then 2 pill in the late afternoon) and I didn't like it. I will try it the other way (2 pills on the onset of headache, and the 1 pill an hour until headache goes away - no more than 5 pills total). If I still don't like how I feel, or it doesn't work, than I'm calling him ::yes:: So, we'll see what happens :rolleyes:


Well, it's time for me to get going, and workout a little - inside today, I hate all this wind!!!!!
Have a good day today everyone!! :wave:

I hope everyone has an absolutly wonderful holiday today, filled with lots of fun, lots of laughs, lots of good food, and lots of memories. Most important, please be safe to all that light fireworks!!!

Hello Everyone!! Happy 4th of July!!

sandy - how did changing the med scheduling work out?

We are going to Jim's mom & dad's today and then have asked a few people to come to our house tonite. James prefers to do fireworks here, so we are going to stay here and avoid traffic. It is nice to have a FF on standby!! :thumbsup2

Have a great day everyone!
 
Happy 4th of July!

I wont be doing anything at all today! yuk! Marc is working today and I dont have anyone else to be with. But I do have a photo album to work on for my parents anniversary, so i guess I could pretend im with my family.:rotfl:

Is anyone making homemade icecream? Of having water balloon contests? Those were my favorite things to do.
 
What a fun, fun, fun day yesterday!!!!!:cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

Now the clean-up begins - my kitchen floor makes me do this:eek: :scared1:
I was going to do something last night, but then Kevin and I stayed out with our neighbors until 1:15am, and I decided sleep was more important :rolleyes:

Today looks like a gorgeous day :sunny:
After I clean-up, I think I need to lay in the pool for awhile :)

Tonight is my first time being a Extrodinary Minister of Holy Communion at church - I'm so excited!!!! I haven't received my schedule for being a lector yet, but I'm sure my first time doing that will be soon also. I'm really enjoying being more involved with my church. I love getting to know my priest better, and getting to know other parishoners better too.


Karen - I didn't call the doctor yet, because there are 2 different ways to take the mediciane. I decided to try the other way, before calling him. If I still don't like it, than I will call.
**I know what you mean about having a FF on call. Kevin and our neighbor (also a FF) does our fireworks, and they are really safe about it.

CB - I'm sorry you were alone yesterday:guilty: How is Marc enjoying work?



Well, I've gotta get going and start cleaning this disastor.
Have a good day today everyone!!! :wave:
 
Back to the ol' grind stone today :rolleyes:
It's been so nice, for the last 3 days, to not wake up to an alarm. I'm sure you all can agree ::yes::

Yesterday was fabulous!!!!
We were outside all day, and got alot of sun :sunny:
I just love love love summer!!!!!:cool1:


Well, I gotta get outside and do my 2 mile walk (it's the only distance I can do without getting a splitting headache :headache: ) and than get in the shower. Have a great day today everyone!!! :wave:
