It's 3 am and I'm just about to go to bed.
We're going into ft. Wayne tomorrow to see Jayme, mom and the kids. We're bringing my Lala home with us for a few days. Hoping we get snowed in so I can keep her longer!! Hehe.
We went down to Lee and Elaines to have chicken wings and everyone else drank beer. We played dice. I got to know the new renters Pam and Steve which was nice. Other than that the rest of us are the Winter crew here at the lake. Of course us, Lee and Elaine, Rick and Cindy, Paul and Jean and Tina. The Merkels didn't come tonight. It's nice to just get out of the house and be around other people for awhile.
Bill got me a dozen beautiful pink roses for Valentines day and a lovely card. It surprised me, even though he gave it to me early or I should say especially since he gave it to me early. I took pictures but still haven't goten everything set up so it syncs with my computer. I gotta get up kinda early, much earlier than I have been getting up so I'm off to bed. I'm excited to see my munchkins.
It's been a very long winter.

May 17, 2012
It was so beautiful out today. 69 but sunny with no wind. I could live like this everyday. It's going to be in the mid eighties tomorrow and the next day. I think I might sneak down to the beach and stick my toes in the water.
We picked up Rylie today for "my week-end". Bill just carried him up to bed, he's been sleeping on the couch since we got home 2 hours ago. I hope he doesn't get up too early tomorrow, at least not before us especially since we had to return the dead-bolts because I got the wrong kind. We need the kind that takes keys for both sides. So now there are empty holes in the doors with tissue stuck in it. How hillbilly is that lol. I just don't want him to go outside without me. I guess I'll be shopping for those dead-bolts tomorrow.
Me and Bill went to see his mom today. They took her back to the nursing home last night and her urinary tract infection is pretty muc gone. Her face is a little swolen but not near as bad as it was in the hospital and she kinda looks good that way.
We played a few games of yahtzee. Then Mary came to make sure they changed her back to real food instead of that thickener stuff that she wouldn't eat. I wouldn't want to eat it either. I mean if you know you're gonna go you should be able to enjoy the time you have left. And food is a big part of that. We stopped and got her a chocolate shake at Stake N Shake. She was loving that. A little bit before we left Suzie and her son showed up. I was glad to see Bills mom in her wheelchair and sitting in the break room. She could talk well but still can't hear and Mary doesn't think the hearing aid is necessary now. I hope Bill goes to see her more often. Oh ya, they started her on morphine today and took her off of her psyc meds. She's on the lowest doese of morphine and I think she was pretty alert for being on it, I was a bit worried about that.
I can't remember if I posted since Mother's Day or not. But, me, Bill, mom, Jayme, the kids and Derick all went out to the Old Country Buffet or something like that. For some reason I don't think that's the one, but the other one just like it. Ugh, I hate my memory. Wade was able to call me on Mother's Day. He is starting to get ansy and we figured he is coming up on a year now. Actually I think it's been a year now. It seems longer and will really seem long by the time he gets out. He's going to a 16 wk counseling type of course and I think it's helping him. He also gets a time cut from it. I hope he gets lots out of it cause he needs to do things totally different when he gets out and that's really hard to do. I think he will remember who has been there for him and who hasn't. He has lots of time to think while he's in there and all his "so called family and friends" can't seem to break down and write a ten minute letter. It's not even that so much that I worry about, it's who he hangs around. I don't want him breaking his parole and ending up spending the rest of his sentence in there.
What a bummer post. Good things are happening too. I've started my new website www.sharing-it-forward.com and it will be along the line of a self-help website but with my twist added in there.
The rocks were removed from our back yard thanks to Jon. And we planted grass that has already had to be mowed twice. It's beautiful but we still have some bald spots that I'm going to fix by getting another bag of grass. I'm also going to get the crab grass killer and fix the grass in the front and in the back--then plant some nice grass there too. I still haven't found a place in the yard worthy of a vege garden except the hill area--thats the only place that gets a fair amount of sun. I have sprouts of tomatoes, brocolli, carrots and radishes and nowhere to put them.
Well I'm off to put a little time into my new website.
PS
I've still been dieting even though I don't bother with dieting on Sundays when we have our family dinners. People are noticing my weight loss and commenting. It's great. I feel lots better too!

Dinner at Jayme's
Today was a nice long Sunday. Me and Bill went to moms and Bill installed her new water faucet. It didn't take long at all. Then me and mom put the air compressor on Craigs list for $800. I hope she gets at least $700 for it! It's big and nice even though it's 12 years old.
Then we all went to Jayme's for dinner. She made beef and noodles, mashed potatoes, green beans, salad and bread. Wow it was alot of food and it was real good too. She is turning into such a good cook. The kids love that food.
Derick's family came over too and it was nice to meet them. His mom, and both brothers Rick and Greg. I forget his moms name, oh no. I did pretty good remembering his brothers name. They were all so nice too. All the boys are so different.
The kids were at the top of their games, I played with them as much as I could. Alana is so silly. She has Derick wrapped around her little finger. She throws her little fit on the floor waiting for him to come pick her up.
We just got home and it's almost 8:30 now. Already getting kinda tired...prob all those carbs! Going off to work on my other website www.sharingitforward.wordpress.com

For my dad...
I'm posting this because I had the most caring, non-judgmental, giving, smart and generous dad there ever was. Looking back, everything he did he did for his family and not once did he ask for anything in return or complain, he never complained about anything and he had lots to complain about. We gave him a run for his money and he took it all in stride. If he didn't have anything good to say about someone he said nothing at all. I miss you so much!! If you still have your dad with you...don't ever take him for granted not for one minute, cherish and make wonderful memories so you have those to look back on.

What am I allergic to?
I had a trip to the emergency room last Sunday (a week ago) because I couldn't catch my breath and my mid left back was killing me whenever I tried to breathe. What a terrible feeling. They ran lots of tests specifically testing my heart, and EKG (boy those are allot faster than they used to be), x-ray(no broken bones and lungs look good), lots of blood test. Everything turned out fine. I was real glad about that but now I'm just in pain and confused.
So I go to follow up with Dr. Beitzel on Wednesday and he says that I have a wheezing in my chest and bronchial tubes and that I'm not asthmatic or have allergies but I'm allergic to something. Not real sure what that means but he sent me home with an inhaler and scheduled an ECO for this Wednesday just to follow up.
The inhaler was working like a charm until last night. Man it's back and it's bad. The inhaler isn't doing much of anything so I've taken a benedryl. I called Dr. Beitzel's office and he is on vacation this week so they directed me to the other Dr. and there is nothing available for today but that I can go to the after hours clinic which starts at 5:45. "But be there early..first come, first serve" I just don't feel like I can drive an hour there, wait for help then drive an hour home just for someone to tell me to take an extra hit of my inhaler. So I've taken an extra hit of my inhaler. No relief yet. I have to watch the BB's tomorrow for Jayme so maybe when I'm at the hospital on Wednesday getting my ECO I will see if I can get some help....Ugh

Kicking off the Fall
Me and Rylie are sitting out enjoying the weather. He has a thing for acorns and other nuts. They can keep him occupied for at least 5 minutes.
Now he is sitting on the big people chair and of course he's abusing it.
I have pictures but it looks like I can't add them from my cell phone app.

I saw Dr. Biezel today
We ran into Columbia City this morning to see Dr Biezel. He is so nice, well worth the hour drive. I don't want to have to change doctors. I got some blood drawn and should have the results by Wednesday. It's just a normal blood check for my medications.
Dr. Biezel told me that even a 10 minute walk a day would help with my weight loss since I've hit a standstill. Me and Bill and James boy one walked down to the mailbox and two streets down. My goals are...
I guess my short term goals are the exercising. I'm also cutting cool whip out of my low carb diet until further notice. Tonight I made up all my breakfast's for the week, bacon and eggs and put them in individual baggies.
These are my personal goals. Me and Bill have already talked about getting our life goals in order. I would like to make long and short term goals for...
Jayme told me today that Melissa and Mike talked to each other nicely on the phone and Mike is gonna let her and the girls stay in the house. Melissa is looking for a job cleaning. I hope she finds one. This is good news compared to the conversation that they had yesterday when Mike told her how nasty she was and she told him how lousy he was in bed and had that David guy get on the phone and explain in detail to Mike what he and Melissa were doing!
