Jeff was off Thursday and Friday and we had a great time.. Thursday we just ran our errands and chilled with a few drinks at home.. Friday we went grill shopping... I have been wanting a new grill for a couple of years now.. Our last one caught on fire way too many times so now it has been used as Jeff's storage room for his smoker utinsels...I have been using are George Forman grill and it was just so hard to clean that Jeff finially told me to throw it away and we would get a new one.. So Friday we went looking and found one at Lowes that was Jeff approved...It took him and Jordan all day to put it together , but its done and I can't wait to cook on it..He bought me a inside cast iron griddle that use on the stove also... that will be great for veggies , and for when the weather is too crappy to use the outside one.. I used it yesterday to make bugers and I really loved it...
The dealership didn't call me in to take my car back to get the seat repaired so if they don't call Monday I have to.. I hope they call , so far they have been fantastic about all the repairs..
I have been using my toning video and exercising regularly and watching what I eat.. except on Jeff's days off I splurged.. My body is spazing out I started my monthly a whole 4 days early.. Normaly I would not exercise during this time , but I'm going to push through it and do it.. I want this weight off.. I'm so mad at myself for gaining weight.. I had maintain the same weight for years well within 5 pounds and I want this extra 8 pounds off.. I'm trying super hard because I want to be skinnier when we go to Washington..
My dad came by to visit yesterday while we sat outside and Jeff and Jordan put together my grill and he had so bad news..My Aunt Betty which is my Dads older sister that lives in Washington has been diagnosed with breast cancer in both breast..They need to be removed , she is also having trouble breathing so they checked her heart, we have bad hearts in this family, but her heart is fine the doctors want to check her lungs to see if the cancer has spread to her lungs and she is too scared to have them do it.. She is also not sure if she wants her breast removed or just see if they can treat her tumors.. The good news is my Aunt Cindy that has had breast cancer and had one removed and has been healthy for 7 years now is living in Washington now and can talk to Betty.. They are sister-in-laws... Betty is 70 years old and very active , her and my uncle are always traveling and just living life...Please pray for her..
Hope everyone has a great weekend..

Semi good news
Cole's doctor appointment went well.. His eye is healing and he gets to go back to light duty work on Monday.. Only daytime driving and no driving company vehicles.. He only can see out of one eye that is why..He goes back in for another check up in two weeks..
Those diet pills were a waste of my money as far as losing weight goes , but I have noticed I have lost inches around my belly and hips.. I wish I would have measured to begin with so I would know how many.. Its not much but I would think at least 2 inches.. I only got to exercise 3 times last week..
As for my car I got it back on Monday and my driver seat was ripped, so now they have ordered me a new one.. It should be here on the 12th then I can get it fixed...The dealership has been really really nice and helpful with this so hopefully it will get done quickly..I have gotten three calls from Chrysler (the big dogs) first about the recall repair that was done and now about my seat..Boy buying a brand new car makes people kiss your ass..I kinda like it :)
Jeff put in his vacation time request yesterday. I really hope its approved.. I can't wait to go to Washington.. We have decided to drive instead of fly.. We are going to take the northern route which I have never done before.. We have always went the California route, so I'm excited about seeing other states..
Well thats all I got.. Hope everyone is doing good and has a great weekend..

still problems
Cole's doctors appointment went fine.. He got the stitches out of his eye and doc. says its healing well , but now there is a catorack forming on his eye..So he will have to have catorack surgery.. We go back next week and then we will discuss when he will have to have that surgery.. Hopefully Cole will be able to go back to work for a while..
Those diet pills were a waste of money in the two weeks I have been on them I have felt no different and only lost one pound..I am still going to finish the bottle because I am hoping they will magically kick in now that I'm off my period and the weight will start to melt away..LOL!!! Hey I can dream!!
Well thats all I got, hope everyone has a great weekend..

poor Cole
It has been a rough couple of days here.. Cole went in for his two week check up on Friday morning.. I didn't go because it was just a check up and he has been driving and back at work for a week.. He calls me from the doctors office and tells me he has to go in for emergency eye surgery right then.. His retna was detaching its self from his eye.. If he didn't go into surgery he would lose all sight in that eye.. So I jump in the shower and head to the hopital..This surgery took a while and it really kicked Cole's ass.. We didn't get home till almost 7 that night.. He had to sleep in the reclyner chair and I had to make sure he didn't have any eye brow pain or nausia.. If he didn I had to call the doctor immediatly.. Cole slept all night, I woke up every hour all night to check on him..Then we had to be at doctors by 8 Saturday morning.. We got home and Cole slept all day and I just laid around trying to nap.. We go back in on Thursday so he can get the stitchs out of his eye.. No driving or work for two weeks to start with...My poor baby, I just want all this eye stuff to be done.. Now the doctor tells us since this happened which was a 1 percent chance that Cole will probably need catarack surgery as well, and his retna could start to detach later in life again.. Kinda like when you break or sprain something it weakens it to happen again..Thank God for insurance or he would be screwed and his boss has been very kind...
Now onto Jeff , we have been discussing with him going to the night shift at work.. right now he doesn't have a partner so he could go in at noon if he wanted to, but if he got a partner it would be 3.. then he would just work like he does now, he gets off when he is done..He would make about $10,000 more a year working the night shift.. So unfair to the day time drivers, but for some reason the night drivers make more money..With Jordan being homeschooled he would still get to see Jeff and his days off would be longer, so that would be nice, plus he wouldn't have to get up at 2 in the morning..
I have exercised this week except for friday and saturday.. I have discovered I can read my kindle while on the treadmill, that hour went by fast..I will begin exercising again today..
Well thats all I got , hope everyone is well.

diet pills
My pills came in the mail on Thursday so I started them Friday.. One pill twice a day with meals..So that works really well for me cause I only eat breakfast and lupper..I also did the eleptical for 30 minutes..I didn't feel any different all day yesterday which is good , I hated those diet pills that made my head feel like bugs were crawling through my hair..I was pretty active yesterday.. It was house cleaning day and I shampood the living room carpet..So I didn't sit down until around 3:30.. I was not sleepy like I have been in the past few weeks.. I did go to bed about 10:30 and slept all night till 7:30 this morning.. I don't know if it was because of the pills or not... We will see how today goes.. Jordan and I may go shopping , he needs new shoes..I plan to walk on the treadmill .. I need to do a toning exercise, but its just so boring...I still need to buy a new scale by this Friday so I will know if any weight is coming off.. I really hope this product works I'm up to 166.. I'm so mad at myself for getting this heavy again..
Well thats all I got , hope everyone has a great day..

Okay , I'm finially on pinterest.. I'm still not so sure about it. to me its a lot like tumblr.. I did get me some fantastic pictures of Rob , and some tats I like, but other than that I'm not getting the whole hoopla about it.. Maybe its because I still don't know how to work the app..
In other news my scale died.. its probably the battery it says Errr... my pills haven't come in yet.. I did get a confromation that they were shipped on the 7th, so hopefully today they will arrive..
I've been downloading free or super cheap books on amazon for my kindle.. two of my favorite fanfiction writers had books published.. Another author will have one out in June.. I have read all these stories already on fanfiction, but I bought them anyway they were cheap and some of my favorite stories..
Not doing much today except going to Walmart...
Hope everyone has a great day..

weekend at moms
We had a nice visit with my mom.. We actually got leave saturday morning, Jeff was out of hours.. It was a tight fit all of us plus the dogs in my new car, but we did it.. The car now needs detailing.. It is gross..Got to visit with my brother and his wife satruday night.. . she is so stupid sometimes.. sorry , but she is.. she came to my moms house with her baby nephew.. he is 8 months.. so fricken cute and such a good baby.. she only brought one diaper and no baby food. she forgot them..Mom and I gave him a bath and wraped him in a towel while she ran to target to get diapers.. then she found baby oatmil in his bag and made that up to feed him.. poor little man..We teased her a lot cause she wants her and Calob to foster children.. that would be a hell NO!! she is too dingy for that responsibilty.
Sunday we went to some steak house Jeff had heard about it was in Arlington next to six flags.. It was awesome and the service was by far the best service we have ever had in our entire life..
Monday was terrible.. It started out about 8 in the morning.. I took my three girls outside to potty.. It was icy and sasha wouldn't go down the deck steps, so I picked her up to carry her down.. then when I put her on the ground I looked up to see daisy foaming at the mouth and shaking her head like crazy.. she was right at the bottom of the steps with me so I didn't know what was wrong with her.. I thought maybe she got something off the ground and was choking.. I picked her up to try and open her mouth but it was locked shut.. I put her down and ran into the house to get Jeff.. By the time I got back outside daisy was fine.. we just thought she was able to pass it.. then about an hour later we all went outside again.. this time mom and her 5 went with us.. as soon as we were out on the deck daisy started foaming at the mouth again.. I picked her up and took her in the house.. she stopped foaming and was fine.. Mom thought maybe she saw a coyote earlier and it scared her then going back out reminded her of it.. I wasn't buying it , but by now daisy if fine.. We go to leave about 10 and we are out front and I set daisy down to potty in the front yard before we load up in the car and she starts shaking and foaming at the mouth again.. Cole is closer so he grabs her and carrys her into the house. I trying to get to her.. I get her from Cole and hold her close she is shaking and foaming really bad.. I just pet her and talk real soft and loving to her.. she finially calms down.. we load up and come home.. I call my vet on the way home , they tell me to bring her in as soon as we get to town.. She did fine the whole trip and we got home to let everyone else out of the car and she was happy to be home.. she went outside to potty and got a drink and some food.. Then we went to the vet.. They did blood work on her to find out why she was having sezures, the blood work came back good.. No problems showed up.. The vet was clueless to why she had the sezures.. He felt if it was epeliphsy she would sez anywhere not just at moms outside, plus all her blood work came back normal..So now we just watch her and hopefully it will never happen again..
Today I have tones of laundry to do.. I hope my diet pills come in today.. Hope everyone has a great week..
