What Next


Interesting thoughts by Angel:

As I read in my journal today, I looked back on my life thirteen years ago. I can't believe that I'm even old enough to say that! I remember feeling those feelings and living that life almost more than I remember what I did yesterday. Everything in life back then was a mystery to me. It was like the beginning of a movie that you are watching and you don't know anything about it. So you pay closer attention to understand the plot. I'm now in the middle o that movie, waiting for that change of events to happen. I've pretty much gotten to the point where I have all those things I wondered about (husband, kids, dog, cat, etc.) but now I feel like its that "What Now" portion of the movie. I look at that little girl who wrote about her childhood crushes and I don't feel like thats me. I feel like I'm reading about someone totally different. I guess we'll see what the next chapter brings. It's always a mystery. At least I know it'll be a happy ending, and I got what was important, a husband who loves me and children who will grow up to be like me. I just don't know how thirteen years went by so fast and my role in life is so extremely different. Its pretty weird.

Adenovirus


Okay, so I looked up the name of the virus the doctor said she had. you can look it up on google. I think the main symptom is a high fever ranging from 101-103 and body ache. Check out this sad picture I just took :)

Blogworthy


So my whole life right now is categorized into two categories: Blogworthy and Unblogworthy. I thought it ironic that Tori just came to me right after I got off the phone with my sister telling me to blog about something and I had nothing at the time, but now I do. This was blogworthy:

Okay, here we go.


So in request to a rather demanding and somewhat rude reminder that I haven't updated my blog in almost a week, here I go Andi. (I still love you).

So here we go:

I got a bladder infection. Brad got really sick (same illness that everyone has had with the throat/flem/wanna die thing). Do you ever notice that the second someone else gets sick in your family you are immediately pushed out the sick chair and onto the doctor chair. Its not fair.
Then Abbie got sick yesterday, fever as high as 103 degrees. I slept on the floor with her last night (she wasn't allowed in our bed cause its small and I was worried she would throw up) until my bones and muscles couldn't stand it, but the poor girl was like hallucinating. She was all singing random songs and talking about random things that didn't make sense, I was worried sick about her. She went to the doctor today, she has some virus, can't remember the name of it, but its like the flu, only not quite as bad. Poor little girl has looked so lethargic and insists to only watch Dora for like 12 hours straight. Its a good thing she likes grape medicine or we might be having more issues. She used to fight it like I was trying to force poison down her throat.

Brad finished his class last week so we have a short break before the next one (U of Phoenix) which is nice, and we've been filling out papers and applications and proposals and such for jobs, hoping to find something to better our situation.

That's the gist. Pretty boring, pretty uneventful. I think the WeeCare Pediatrics center has all our money now. I should work there and see if I can get a freakin discount. :)

I'm attaching a cute picture of Abbie we took recently, just so you have something to visualize. I cut her hair about 2-3 inches and she finally agreed to wear earrings, hallelujah!
