Tired, very tired

Well, I can definitely say, the 12:15am wake up call in the form of Tango yelping in pain and shaking his head back and forth was not welcomed. But thankfully he is okay. He has an ear infection. Sadly this is not the first nor the last time he will get one. The Vet says that its very common for dogs with ears like his and that all we can do is keep cleaning out his ears and using the drops. So needless to say when I finally got back to sleep and up at 6, I was very very very tired. Thankfully there were enough people at work and I was able to take and 1/2 day and come home and take care of my doggie.

I hope you all have a very blessed and wonderful day!!!!!! Here's hoping I get some good sleep tonite!

Wow its been toooo long!

Sorry everybody its been a crazy busy week. It was very hard to go back to work and last week was very exhausting. Mainly cause I had to reacclimate myself to waking up at 6 in the morning! What can I say I am not a morning person. I am such a nite owl and I think I got used to being able to stay up late while I was out of work.

I have felt so very blessed this last week. Mainly because of how much God has done for me. I don't think one will ever truly realize how much God has blessed them. Because I find myself everyday blessed to be alive, to have an amazing husband, a wonderful family, supportive friends, and a Good job to go too each day. Its amazing how we don't always remember these things but that when we do its an amazing feeling.

Matt and I had a wonderful time this weekend. We went to Estate Sales and an Antique Mall on Saturday with my little sister and Aleasa. I got myself a really awesome antique window that I am going to put in my office once I turn it into a chalkboard/magnetic board. Its going to looks so awesome. I will take a picture as soon as I get it done.

Saturday night was a rough nite, especially when Matt in his sleep rolled over and hit me not very gently in the shoulder. Yeah, needless to say I wasn't to happy with him after that, but hey we survive. And he seemed to think it was pretty funny. Crazy Man needs to not move so much in his sleep.

Well that's all I have to share at this exact moment, God bless and I will talk to ya soon!

Made it through the day!

Made it through the first day of work! I am exhausted and definitely sore but I survived. It was so nice to see all my friends! I truly missed them all so much. It has been a very nice and wonderful day.

My sci-fi shows started tonite, I am super excited! I am embarrassing my inner geek! Of course I always do that so its nothing new. I am geeky and very proud of it. Matt thinks I am silly, but he loves me anyways!

Its another day another amazing adventure. Each one bringing us closer together in the journey God wants for us! I might make a wrong turn here or there, but in the end no matter how long or short my path is, I will keep pushing towards God!

God bless you all!

Oh no... I think Mommy withdrawls are coming!

I think he knows, I think he has figured it out and it doesn't look good. Tango has not let me out of his sight. I think he may have finally figured out that well Mommy is back to work tomorrow. I am concerned he has had me home to himself for almost 3 weeks straight. The only time we have been apart has been Dr. Visits and Physical Therapy. Right now he is laying on the floor at my feet. I am so not looking forward to him being sad. If I could I would stay home with him always. I love spending time with my baby!

Tomorrow is the big day, I am excited and nervous to be going back to work. Am I even going to remember how to do my job??? LOL, I sure hope so. I have missed work, so it will be nice to get a change of scenery.

Matt and I had a wonderful day today. We ran errands and just enjoyed each others company. Tomorrow I am back on the diet full time again. Sigh... Back to nasty boring and bland foods, but hey I can do this. Besides I need to this and I want to do this and God is with me, so I can do this.

Have a blessed nite and I will write more tomorrow. Now I gotta spend as much time as I can with my T cause he is not happy with me leaving.

Sorry havent had much to say

Sorry I haven't posted in the past couple of days. Hadn't really had a lot to say. I went back to physical therapy on Friday. They have said that my arm is definitely showing improvement and that hopefully once it fully heals, there wont be any pain. I am praying this is true.

I get to go back to work on Monday. I am super excited. I mean don't get me wrong I could live a life of leisure, watching TV and Bon Bons. But after awhile I get so very bored. So I am excited to see all my friends at work and get myself out of the house more.

Tango and I finished our Harry Potter marathon, and officially we are ready for the final movie on Friday! Woohoo. To bad they wont let me take Tango to the theatre. I guess I could call him my seeing eye dog. LOL, he would love to eat all the popcorn off the floor.

Matt and I had a wonderful day together today, we went to some estate sales and stores. I got some cool old magazines from the 70's. I love looking at the old ads. I also got myself a few Doctor Who books and magazines. I am fully embracing my geekyness. I love it!!! Matt thinks I am so silly.

I am looking forward to going to church tomorrow. I miss it so much when I don't get to go, so only 2 Sundays left for me till October. Very much looking forward to worshiping with others. Matt and I really love our Sunday school class, and look forward to going together.

I seem to be rambling today, I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend! God Bless!

Survived Physical Therapy

Thankfully I survived the first day of Physical therapy. I am definitely sore and tired but it went good. Todd is really good at his job and he said that you can definitely tell that my arm is doing better then before the surgery. I am happy to say I agree with him. I think once the soreness from the surgery is gone and we have built up my strength and range of motion, I will be fully healed and all the pain will have been worth it.

GOD IS AMAZING! Yesterday we got a check in the mail, for a very nice amount. This was such a blessing and just puts us one step closer to being debt free! Its so awesome to be getting closer, God provides in so many unexpected ways if you are faithfully following him.

I hope you all are doing wonderful and if anyone needs anything prayer or otherwise, please feel free to share with me. I am asking you all to pray for us, but we would love to return the favor to you all. We love you all and can't thank you enough for your support!

Going Bonkers

Okay so I can definitely say that I am going Bonkers, being home so much. There is only so much facebook bingo one woman can handle. :) I did today decide that Tango and I are going to have a Harry Potter Marathon to help pass time. So far today we have watched the first two. Which is helping to pass the time.

I get to get out of the house tomorrow and go to physical therapy. I am looking forward to getting out of the house but not looking forward to the pain. So do not like pain. Most of the time I am okay, but when I wake up in the morning my shoulder is on fire and very painful. It makes it a bummer way to start the day. But by noon my shoulder usually has less pain.

I feel like I am rambling today, don't have a lot to say. Tired and ready to get some sleep. Have blessed days!

One text message changed my life

Yeah I know a little dramatic, but so true. It would be the text message I sent my husband asking him out. I had liked Matt from a far and had tried talking to him, but he was so shy. I decided to give it one last shot and sent him a simple text message. It said Would like to go see the movie Hancock with me tomorrow. I was so nervous I texted him instead of calling and like that he replied yes. I remember we were both so nervous and we went to Culver's afterwards and as we were standing in the plot saying Good bye, he asked me if I wanted to go out the following weekend. I said yes of course and here we are now 3 years later.

It seems Corney I am sure to some that we celebrate the anniversary of our 1st date, but to us it was the day that changed our lives. By then end of July we knew we had found the one. And if I wouldn't have sent the text message we may never have known. So every year in our own way we do something to celebrate. God blessed us so much, and we have him to thank for us meeting. We met at church, and to us that the most special piece of the puzzle, cause God had his hand in our meeting from day one, without a doubt.

I hope you all have a wonderful day and amazing 4th tomorrow. And God Bless!

Yummy!

For dinner tonite, Matt made Kabobs. He had chicken ones and I have turkey sausage ones. They were delicious and it was a nice change from our usual. I had jalapenos and tomatoes on mine. One of the jalapenos fell and Tango ate it. I so hope it doesn't upset his tummy. Crazy dog will eat anything that falls on the floor.

We went to Hyvee today to fill a pain med script from the Doctor. I tried to fill the same one at Target the day before and they didn't have the medicine. Low and behold neither did Hyvee, so Matt drove me over to Walgreen's and thankfully they had it. I love reading the medicine info sheets that come with each type. Of course this one was very strict and almost scary to read. I don't understand how you can have all these warnings and yet they still want you to take the medicine.

My shoulder is feeling ok today. When I took my shower this morning and went to rub soap on it, it hurt really bad. Its very tender in certain spots. That's okay I survived. In another detail, I learned yesterday I should probably make sure I have Matt help me dress before he leaves for work. Especially if I have a Doctors Appointment. Lets just say hurt arm and ladies Bra not such a good combo. I was crying after getting it on, so cant move my arm the way I need too.

Of course Matt helped me today, and he had a hard time. I know its wrong but I totally teased him. I was like learned how to get the bra off, but not how to get it on huh? Yeah I am goofy. But hey he loves me and teased me all the time. Lady at Hyvee asked what happened and I said surgery and Matt was like at least that's what I told her to tell people. He is such a goof ball.

I am bummed not to be able to go to church tomorrow. But I figure I will listen to Pastors amazing lesson online. I gotta get my church on. Well today is another day and another day is over. I hope you all have blessed day, and enjoy your holiday weekend!

Thank God for my Little Sister

Today Matt had to work late again. And all I could think is I am going to be so bored. Stuck in the house all by myself, bored out of my mind. But praise God for my sissy. She came over with the Aleasa and kept me company. We ate pizza(yes I know) and watched How to Train a Dragon. Its such a cute movie. I bought it right after it came out. And then we watched Toddlers and Tiaras. Yes I know how corny, but I cant help it. I love to watch and be shocked at all these crazy people do with their kids.

I went to the Doctor today for my follow up visit. It went okay, everything seems to be progressing nicely. But due to the fact I am still in pain and can't lift my arm very high, I am going to be off work for at least one more week. I might die of boredom but at least I am definitely going to give my arm time to heal. So the Tango and I will get to have one more wonderful week together just him and I. Or at least during the day that is.

On the topic of my sister, it seems so often that I forget how lucky and blessed I am by her. Krista is the best little sister ever. She has always been my cheering squad from day one. I can remember being young, probably 13ish and a neighbor boy picking on me. And by golly if my 10 year old sister wasn't right in his face ready to throw down cause he was mean to me. She is amazing and I am so thankful God sent me such an amazing woman to be my sister. I love the fact that she gave me my first niece Aleasa and she is going to be giving me another one. Its great cause I get to practice on her kiddos and if I mess them up its okay cause she is a great mommy who will mold her back into the perfect kid. So anyways, Thanks God for my sissy! She's the best!
