A trip to the tooth doctor

I have nothing new to blog about, Oh wait.

Today I took My daughter Kaelina and my son Jacob to their dentist appointments. Just for the regular check ups. They got some x-rays and a good cleaning.

Jacob did fine. He was scared the whole time that he was gonna get a shot, but after reassuring him he still didn't believe me. So he asks the nurse and she tells him no. Just one time she says no and he is sold. I think I must have said no ten times. But I guess all that matters is that he was happy. Anyways for him- he did not have any cavaites.

Kaelina did well also. She was not concerned about a shot. She on the other hand got her first cavaty. She is pretty upset about it. Then the dentist tells us that her bottom teeth are so crowded that her teeth that are trying to grow in, CAN'T. There is no room for them. He then tells us that she is going to have to remove 2 of her teeth. How the crap am i going to explain this to her. We have an appointment set up so I am going to have to think fast.

The joy of family

OK, So how annoying is this,

Fil and I are going to change car insurance companies. We found a good rate and we are happy with the company. We are currently with progressive drive insurance. We are paying 313 dollars a month. I know. are we crazy. With the new company we will be paying 182$. Much better huh?! That will save us $131 dollars a month. So as you can imagine...We are excited.

We wanted to wait until payday to switch. Well lucky for us it is renewal time for our insurance and it is also a Friday so the insurance company would have no problem switching us over. Well that is not our luck. While on the phone going over all the necessary steps he (John.... the man on the phone) says whoa, here is the problem, you have alot of claims on your insurance. Claims--we don't get into that much trouble. So he is going through the list....who would have known. Almost everything on that list belongs to Grace and Henry. I mean this list went on and on. So we explain that, that is not us. so he says well it makes sense, BUT i can't do anything right now. I have to wait until a writer(?) takes a look at this and OKs this.
Now the problem is--they don't work on the weekends. so the earliest he can give us our insurance is Monday. So we say OK--we can work that out. Then he says well the other problem is that it is your renewal time and that date lands on the 27th. Monday is the 28. So you are going to have to make your payment because if you let that lapse we will never insure you.
Which makes sense.

So we move on to renters insurance. Everything is fine until he finds out we have a dog. A DOG. Since we have a Pitt bull that is to much of a liability. They say that pretty much no one will insure you with a Pitt bull. But hooray he finds someone. He says it will cost about 22 bucks a month, not too bad.

But again we can't do anything thanks to grace and Henry.

Then the guy says well if you didn't have the dog, we could have combined the 2 policies and the payment for both would have been 172 all together. What that is awesome. but not for us.

so now i have to make 2 insurance payments this month, which sucks cause i planned the bills pretty tight, but we would have been fine. but not now.

On the up side they did say that drive insurance would refund the payment back to us. But I'm guessing that will take about 30 days.

Oh well........ that was my night.

Hmmm

It is almost 9:00 p.m. and I'm watching t.v.

I'm kinda bored. I'm watching wife swap. I pre- recorded it so I can fast forward through the commercials. I just put the kids to bed. I hope they fall fast asleep. Well I guess that is a stupid thing to say, because they always do.

Fil left for work at 5:00 today. Well actually he has to be there by 5:00. Its always fun to get his stuff ready.----NOT!! Ha Ha -- I'm laughing in my head.

I think I'll finish this blog like this.

Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah!!
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Ha Ha Ha.

2 is better then 1

So after a night of watching Emily run back and forth to the bathroom, I finally get all the kids into bed and i give her the--If you feel like you have to barf, get up and run into the bathroom. She assures me that she will do so.

Fil wants to watch movie so i take my normal spot on the couch and fall asleep. I'm soon awakened by my other daughter letting me know she just barfed all over her bedroom floor. I jump off the couch and start clean up mode... Nothing like cleaning up spaghetti in the reverse mode.

Anyways I put a barf bucket next to each bed and they fall asleep. I let them sleep in thinking they prob feel like shit...Today they are fine and playing and running around.

So I guess they got a free day off school. (works for me, I got an extra hour of sleep.)

Barf

It has been a while since one of children barfed... Thankfully for me.

Today while out dress shopping with my sister I get a call from my daughter Emily's school, informing me that she had threw up in class. I immediately thought-- How sad, the poor little thing must be so embarrassed. Then my mom brain kicked in and I thought poor thing--How did she get sick. when she left for school she was OK. Not a hint of sickness.

So we went to school and picked her up. Knowing that she is not feeling well, I still decide that we only have one more store and that I would hate to have gone to all them other stores and not the last one. So I drag my sick child into the dress store. We were there for a little while until she just couldn't take it anymore. Emily started to cry, saying that her tummy hurts. So my sister to us home where I tell her to change into her Jammie's.

I get her to fall asleep and i leave her with her dad so I can run to the store and get some Gatorade for Emily. When i return I find them all fast asleep, but they woke up the instant I thought that I might have a second to rest.

My daughter has continued to barf and I am not enjoying are long awaited reunion. ( me and the barf)

bordum

Oh man, I'm so bored.

I'm waiting for my mother in law and my sister in law to call me so we can do some wedding shopping.

For those of you who don't know my mother and father in law divorced just as me and my husband got together. It has been 8 years now and she has fell in love again. She is getting married next month and we have nothing done yet.

By nothing-I mean NOTHING. She finally picked a day so I guess maybe we have something done. But anyways she hasn't picked a dress nor has she looked at any. Not in a store nor in a magazine. The wedding is in 19 days and she hasn't sent out her invitations. To do that you need to buy some. We have to go look at flowers and decided what she likes and pick out her bouquet. She has to start thinking about how she wants her hair done. They need to go ring shopping. And I'm sure I have left alot of stuff out but my brain is kinda fried.

So today we are tackle as much as we can. They were supposed to have called by now so that we can get this started, bu of course they haven't. Whats the rush right.

Maybe I'm getting a little pissy. I just want to get this over with. We just need to get things rolling.

Then to make things more fun we are going to moving rays stuff here and there. and we have to make room in maria's house for all his stuff.

So yeah for today...I want to get this started so that my babysitter can get some rest. Sorry melody.

Us

This is not a new story. This is probably a story that you are sick of, but it popped into my brain last night and i couldn't stop laughing in my head. Now it is stuck in my head.

A couple of months ago we bought a Wii. The kids were so over joyed. They play it all the time. I think that their favorite game is bowling. Anyways, since day one my son Jacob calls the Wii a us. How cute is that.

At first I didn't know what he was talking about. Mom can we play the US?
I'm thinking the US what the crap is this. So after a couple times of him asking he shows me and I figure out what he is talking about.

We would get a good laugh every time. Now he knows what it is called and we don't get that little laugh.

So right now I'm thinking back and laughing--- Ha Ha Ha.

chores

Today I have to clean my dirty house. This is a chore I don't do everyday. Unfortunately for my family. I don't know why I can't do this. It has to be the easiest thing in the world. If there is a mess clean it up. You would think that I would do that but---I don't.

I finished the dishes and there was alot of them. They were so dirty. Now i have to put away my laundry. I washed it and threw the pile on the couch. Not just one load but at least 7 loads. uuuuggghh I don't want to put these cloths away!

But I will. I can do this. I can be a normal wife and mother. I can do the things that a wife and mother should do. So here I go----I'm gonna do it.

Movies

Today we have mike and steve and sara and maria over for some dessert and coffee. We ended having brownies and vanilla ice cream. They were good. anyways we played some wii. then we got bored and played some Nintendo ds. that to got boring so we ended up playing scene it on the xbox. that was fun but as usual fil won. ass hole loser. Now we are trying to pick a movie. I don't know how many movies we own but there is nothing to watch. we can not agree on anything. I think we seriously picked up every movie and denied them.

I like watching fil and his siblings argue over which movie is lame and which one is not. I don't know how they grew up together, you would think they would like the same stuff but as it turns out they do not. I think that i am tired. I hope they pick something soon.




THE END.

The Survivors


These are my survivors. If you notice they each have their own walking sticks. These sticks they picked out on they're own. Well first Phillip picked out his stick which he brought every where on our trip. Once the kids noticed they of course wanted one too.
So slowly they found a stick of their own. They used them to walk with for I think about 20 Minutes, then they were turned into swords. Then they turned into MOM MY ARM HURTS I CAN'T HOLD THIS ANYMORE. Which made our 10 mile hike so much more fun.
They still have those sticks at the house, here they are used more for swords, but they keep them against the house just in case we go camping. I want to burn these sticks in the fire place. But how can I. It is just so cute that they want to be like they're dorky daddy. I can't imagine there will many more years that they do want to do anything that he is doing.
So as hard as it is, I'm just gonna sit back and watch my husband turn our kids into walking stick carring dorks until they are done with him. If that makes sense.

How I met my husband Part 2

So not ever been anywhere for more the 2-3 hours with this guy,we are on our way to San Fransisco. I know him but not really know him, so jumping in the car like that was crazy. I didn't call my sister and tell her that I was going and he didn't call his family either. IMPULSIVE.

It was 5:30 a.m. And nothing was open. It was SO cold. (when we left Yuba City the weather was nice.) We had one sweater between us so we kept trading off and on. We were waiting for some store- any store to open so we could pick up one more sweater. We got one and headed toward the beach. It was so pretty.

We walked for a while and then we laid down a blanket and sat and talked. Little did i know he was going to nap and i was on my own for a couple of hours. So when he finally awakes we head back toward the pier where he eats a clam chowder bowl. YUCK. I was so hungry, but i didn't want him to know plus i couldn't eat in front of him.

So he spent the day showing me all his favorite sights. It was all so pretty but (OMG if you knew him then you knew what kind of car he had) I swear it was so freaking scary. We watched the sun go down and I think we headed home around 9:00 or so.

On the way home he kept falling asleep. He is asking me to sing with him. I'm like what-No i can't do that. So he drove in and out of sleep and some how we made it home. I then had to make that call to my sister and let her know that I am alive and that I was sorry for scaring her.

I think it was about two days later and i still hadn't received a call from him and I'm thinking what the hell. So I call him. Of course he has this lame story about how he was about to call me. Yah Right. Anyways from then on we would talk on the phone for a minimum of 4 hours a day. I have no idea about what, but we did.

I then later found out that He had a date- the day we were coming home from the beach and he blew her off for me. I thought that was sweet because this was the girl is was in love with. He finally had his chance with her and he didn't take it.

How I met my husband

Well I started working at McDonald's after high school. I worked whatever shift they wanted me to work. Phillip was still in high school so he could only work at nights and on the weekends. I think about six months into working there I finally started catching the same shift as him.

At first, I didn't like him. He was slow and kinda annoying. But as time went by and we started working together I started to like him. I remember on days that he wasn't working i would be sad. And of course on days that he was working i was excited.

We would both work drive thru together and It was kinda fun because you are in a small area and we would always rub against each other. He would always look down my shirt, and to be honest i would make it so he could.

One day i needed a ride home. I think my sister volunteered him to take me home. It must have been the most quiet ride ever. We pulled up to my apartment and i just hopped out. I was kinda bummed because i wanted him to make a move and he didn't. (I later found out he wanted to too.)

So finally he graduated high school and he was accepted into college in Chico. He said he was moving up there, so he wanted to take me out on a date before he left for my birthday. So we made a date.

He knocks on my door and I open it and in walks Phillip and four of his friends. ( I'm thinking what the hell, I thought this was a date.) so we go to dinner at Carl's Jr.- Big spender. I of course couldn't eat anything I was so embarrassed. When dinner was over the all decided that they had to use the bathroom but they didn't want to use the one there so we went to brads house. As soon as they got out of the car Phillip took off. I have to admit I was excited.

We went to Hilcrest park. We talked and played and of course flirted. My god what do i have to do to get him to kiss me. Finally he made his move and after that we made out for a hour or so. I think it was like 1:00 in the morning and he says hey lets go to the beach. I without any thought say OK. We hopped in his piece of crap car and went...............
