Happy Beheading Day!

Oh yes. It's St. Valentine's Day again. How delightful. Still don't see the point in celebrating the day the man got beheaded with symbols of love. I DON'T UNDERSTAND! Help me understand. Please!

So, anyway, my body is back to normal-ish again. Stomach ache still, but it comes and goes.

Camy seems about 85% better. She is writing and reading right now. Not sure why. I don't think she knows it is Saturday...LOL

I kinda wish it was Wednesday again so I could do another wish list. I'm kinda bored.

Let's do a Q & A! You ask any question you want at the end of this entry and I will answer it in the next entry. Sound like fun? Sounds like fun to me. Nothing is too personal or off limits. So, think hard and ask away. Ready. Set. Go!

How One Hour Became Four

I definitely don't win any awards for motherhood today.

Camy ended up tossing her cookies and spiking a 102 temp at about t minus 1 hour. And what did she throw up? Something I gave to her at about 9:15. Gross. It just sat on her tummy for freaking SEVEN hours! EW!

So, she didn't go to Eunice. Kyle and I agreed that them there old people didn't need to be exposed.

Hah? You agree? Just like that. I fused now. NOTHING MAKES SENSE ANY MORE!

This Is Torture

Another weekend at Daddy's! Jayde doesn't want to go. LOL. They're actually going to Eunice, LA. Not really sure why, but it's whatever.

Camy stayed home from school today. She had a 102.5 temperature. She really SHOULDN"T be going anywhere. She came home yday and had tossed her cookies. She had barely eaten anything. Turns out a bug is going around. From head lice to stomach bugs. I really don't miss school when summer is here. We don't have to deal with other parent's stupidity when we're out of school. If your kid has bugs, whether tangible or not, don't send them to school. A sure sign of a bug is a fever. 99.9 is fine, but when you get to 100, just don't do it! GAH! Thick green mucus is NOT your friend. It is EVIL! EVIL! -jumps off of high horse-

I feel better now.

I'm thinking about applying to some hospitals in the Memphis area. Vicki gave me some great information about the hospitals in the area. I could hug her! I think I'll start with St. Jude. You may have heard of them...

Which reminds me. HAT DRIVE TIME!

I am unofficially starting a hat drive. I am collecting hats to send to St. Jude. If you want to participate, let me know. NEW HATS ONLY! If you want to make them, knitted and crocheted is fine. Must come from a smoke-free home. My goal is 20 "boy" hats and 20 "girl" hats. I did this before in 2006 ( I think). Well, I take that back. I sent that many, but I just bought them all myself. I want to give others a chance to help. But keep in mind that I will have other opportunities to help. If you don't do this, you can always do other things. There's still 10 months in the year. If you have a giving back idea, let me know.

Note to self: TAKE CLOTHES TO SVP!

Sorry. January's project got started and never finished. Har. Big garbage bags. I needz them.

T minus 2 hours and counting :(

I'm going to go now. Children's movie has ended and chaos will soon ensue.

Purrfect Day

Today Camy decided to paint my fingernails. She did pretty decent even though she did it her own way rather than the "right" way. Haha. She painted them like you would paint a picture. LOL So cute! How many five-year-olds can claim they painted mommy's nails? Not many. I don't think Grandma Karen the Wonderful would have let her.

I'm on page 99 of Midnight Sun...an incomplete copy of Midnight Sun, as it hasn't been finished/published yet, but Midnight Sun nonetheless. You can find a copy at www.stephaniemeyer.com.

My stomach still hurtsss. And of course my back, but that's perpetual.

I don't know. I'm boring.

Ever Have a Wish?

I have plenty of them. And you can view them here *clickclick* every Wednesday.

May I Have Your Attention Please!

I've been pretty much pumping Ibuprofen into my system for like 3 days now. This is NOT a normal back ache. A normal back ache I can handle. Whatever. But I also have a stomach ache. Something may ACTUALLY be wrong with me. Or maybe not. It's probably random again. My foot hurts and swells up. Random. My stool is runny and I've had it for like 3 weeks. Random. I have a headache on the top of my head. Random. My muscles are twitchy. Random. I've about had it with random. Something effin' better be wrong with me or I'm never seeing another doctor again. I can just outright die. I don't care. Because they WON'T be able to find a cause. RANDOM IS GOING TO KILL ME!

And how was your day?

Just More Plans!

I need a room, and a living room. So, here it goes!

SOFA! This is really the only piece I need and it matches the shit I already have. We're doing a magnolia theme. The coffee table and the end table I have already match this. They're about the same color as the dark brown. And a magnolia is about shade as the ivory color. I already have a painting that will go over it. I might need a television stand and a couple of chairs. I might be able to get away with one. I also might need a new rug? I don't even know what kind of floors I'll have, obviously, as I don't have a place picked. Anyway, this sofa is from Rooms To Go. It's price is about $4oo and it is called the Wesley sofa. I might just go ahead and get a love seat and a chair instead of two chairs. I really like the Wesley Lovesea. It's a smaller version of this sofa. It costs about $380. And I guess I'll have to get a chair that looks the same? Can I do that? I mean, sorry, you weren't in my head. I mean, can I mix and match furniture colors? Idunno. Never seen it done. That'd be new. LOL. They'd call the style "Simply Susan". Har. "Oh. I see you have a "Simply Susan" style den. Neat." And actally I was wondering. Do I really want a sofa and a loveseat or do I want a loveseat and a chaise. Or what? Or do I wan a recliner or a chair chair. Or do I want one of each and not a loveseat? So many decisions. So, I'll post all of my picks, do the calculations and then decide. Just planning anyway. Nothing is FINAL! So, this is the recliner/rocker I'd get. It definitely doesn't match absolutely, but I figure it's close enough. This is about $600, which is more than the couch! And it is a Lynley Hazelnut Rocker Recliner. Or I can get this one. This is the Francis Beige Recliner. It costs $450. While it only has one color, the color definitely matches better. And here's a wild chair! It's the Gregory Swivel Chair. Now, on this one, the dark brown doesn't match absolutely, but the ivory does. Interesting, no? Anyway, it costs about $650 and would probably have me wanting to strangle my little darlings. You know how they like to spin chairs. Oh. By the by, there IS a Wesley Chair. It's $350. I'm thinking I might just SKIP the chaise thing. They're OOGLY! I'm really kinda disapointed that they don't have a Wesley Ottoman. But who needs an ottoman anyway? This is about need not want!

Next we come to entertainment centers. I don't need a whole lot. Just something to keep the kids out of the DVDS and stuff and it has to hold the television up. Just something basic in other words. And THIS is NOT what I'm talking about. The Santa Cruz Wall Unit is NOT what I mean. It's nice. But no. I need something more along the lines of The Morton Console for $450. That's what I REALLY need.

It's Fun To Plan

This is strictly rough plans for the new house which we don't even have yet. Haha.

IF they each have their own room here are the plans:

Jayde:

-gets a new bed (twin/princess)
- horse/my little pony themed
-pink walls
-gets the cradle and baby dolls
-gets one of my dressers (the shorter one)
-gets the quilt rack
-gets Todd's nightstand and new lamp
















Camryn:
-gets my old bed (twin/princess)
- TinkerBell/fairy/pixie themed
-purple walls
-gets the other of my dressers (the taller one)
-gets my nightstand and new lamp
-gets the cedar chest with blankets inside









Susan:
-gets a new dresser
-gets a new nightstand and lamp
-Asian themed
- same color it is now (dark teal)
-gets new dresser
-gets new bed (double/prince)
-takes one of the dress up trunks

IF there is only one room for the girls they want the following:

-a bunk bed (comes with drawers and a desk- each will get three drawers, Camy will use the desk, will each still have their own lamp)
- Tinkerbell/fairy/pixie and horse/my little pony theme integrated
-pink and purple walls with an armchair railing
- Still get my dressers
-cradle and dolls
-keep ALL the dressup trunks
-I get the cedar chest
-Mamaw keeps the quilt rack
-extra twin bed becomes a "nanny bed".
