I am so excited here….I got my DSL and its super fast.  And it was so easy to hook up too.  I am simply amazed at how fast it is.  To me it actually faster than cable internet.  But in order for me to hook up my third computer I have to buy a ethernet cable.  I am sure they have it at Best Buy or something.  Cause my third computer is sitting there all alone waiting for access to the WWW.  It needs updates like crazy and being on diap up previously….no way was I gonna sit there and wait for them all.  Well my updates are done on the laptop…only had one.  Yay!  Now off to the second puter to check on them.  Then I am off to get my Son from school.  So I will be back later.

I sure hope its going to be a good day.  I have to take my Son to school then straight home.  I am waiting for the UPS man to get here today with my modem.  Finally a faster internet even though it was fantastic to have the dial up, I so miss fast internet.  Its amazing I go to my Moms and it flies over there, so fast.  I have to wait til’ the modem gets here to see what wires I will need for the two desktops.  My Laptop doesn’t need anything…Yay!

 I went and bought my Son some clothes yesterday.  He seems to keep growing for some reason.  So Walllllmart was the place I went for his clothes.  The one in Moline never seems to have anything I need in stock so I have to go to Davenport, IA all the time for my stuff.  My Son’s jeans are a good deal $8.94 a pair.  And they fit him perfectly.  He wears all different sizes for some reason from different stores.  Sears he wears a 12 Slim, at Walllllmart its 10 regular.  Its the length that gets him every time though.  So I bought him a couple pair and some unders, you can never have enough of them.  I bought myself some as well then I found that they have my comfy shirts too.  I am extremely picky on my clothes.  My shirts aren’t the Fruit Of The Loom ones where they are big on top and tight around your butt.  I love the Just My Size because they fit perfectly and they have purty clothes too.  I bought me a pink and a light green.  There are two more I want, and of course if I tell my boyfriend he will get them for me.  He has always said to me, that he never has a problem buying me clothes and that all I have to do is ask.  Yay!!!  So I will have two more soon, and they are cheap too$6.00 a shirt.  Lovin’ it!!!

Just sitting here watching Plastic Surgery; Before and After.   I so love shows like this.  Its a rerun though.  Blah.  I think I read somewhere that Survivor starts next week.  I am so stocked!!

Well, I am off to bed.  I am so tired.  Had a rough night sleeping last night, bad dreams and people at my door after midnight.  Kinda scary.  I am keeping the locks and the deadbolt locked tonight.  I don’t trust people.

My Van that is.  Cause baby, its cold outside.  Not joking either.  I am taking my Son to school.  Stopping at the store and coming back home.  I am getting anxious about getting faster internet.  The stuff should be here before Thursday and I can already install it and it will be set up.  I know they have to test my lines, they may say they have to replace lines inside.  Yes I got the backup plan for that.  I learned that lesson.  But now my laptop will be wireless to the modem/router thing.  And it will be mine for what they are sending me.   I may go buy a thingy for my other computer as I don’t want wires all over the place.  Alright, nothing is getting done sitting here.  Little man is still asleep.

Last night I was sitting and watching the news.  They upgraded the snow warning to a blizzard warning with all the winds we are having.  I am nervous about this for some reason.  For one I hate snow and wind, two I have to take my Son to school.  So I decided that at noon I am going to pick him up early.  I am sorry but my Son’s life is more important than some snow warning/blizzard warning.  They say its suppose to start around noon.  So I figure before it gets too bad I will beat it.  See the reason why I am doing this is because of the distance between my house and the school.    No matter which way I go there is another school in between which means traffic.  I don’t handle traffic well.  I hate people who drive slow, and like idiots.  I am sorry, I can’t handle it.  So there is a road that cuts directly in the middle of the schools but its unsafe when it first starts to snow. 

 I am so busy thou this morning as it is.  I have to go get the sticker for my van, and renew my insurance.  Gah!!!!!

Just wishing I could make things better for everyone I know.  Whether its my Mom, my friends and/or family.  I know my life isn’ t the greatest but I will put my life on the back burner for the ones I care about.   I got to spend most of my day with my niece Kelcee.  She had her rehearsal for her pageant which is coming up on Feb. 8th.  Let’s just say, I am excited this is something I get to enjoy with her.  Before her pageant we went to McDonalds and had a nice lunch.  I got lots of pictures.  I love it!!!!  I love being able to capture moments.  Pricesless moments.  If I can get them uploaded go check em out if I can figure out the link for Flickr….lol.

I rec’d word last night from my Mom that her Buddy has went on to the pearly gates above.  He was a absolute Angel, he was a wonderful Father who took in Foster kids and raised them as they were his own children.  He was a hard worker and most of all, a wonderful husband.  He was also my Mom’s Best Friend.  I didn’t get much sleep as its something you can’t forget.  So please keep in your heart and prayers for my Mom and her Best Friend.  Kim.

I am at my Mom’s work updating my latptop, since I am not sure what the internet situation is at my house.  I have my two new babies.  My laptop is fully charged.  I still have to charge my camera but I do have my new camera too.  I haven’t been home yet.  So pretty soon, I will be at home.

Today will be a busy day, I can finally pay on my bills.  I am excited yet sad because of certain people in my life are having either a tough time or Cancer has taken over their lives. 

I am still thinking about my Mom’s friend Kim.  She went and saw him on Weds. , and she was very sad.  He was incoherent, didn’t know she was there.  I know that upset my Mom a great deal.   And for me, I asked how long did she think he will go on and she mentioned not long.   I hope and pray he isn’t suffering at this time, but anyone who has suffered with it knows better. 

Then the other bad news my Grandma, my Mom’s Mom.  She has battled against the demon beast not once but twice.  And guess what is haunting her again, we aren’t for sure yet but will find out Monday.  I am hoping its just a shadow on the film.   Why can’t there be a more safe and less pain filling treatment for cancer. 

 Why can’t there be a cure? 

Why do we get these mountains to climb, in order to survive and keep going? 

I can’t help but not believe and have no faith in life.  But I have to, for my Mom.  She is my Rock, she is MY best friend and no matter what I love her.  Even though I am not up my Mom’s butt all the time…..AHEM…my sisters are constantly.  I feel I have given her enough grief in life.

Then we have another speed bump in the family, which cannot be discussed on here.  It deals with other issues and I hope that it gets worked out.  I really do.

As for my other Grandma, she is doing good.  She goes back to the doc on the 28th for her results of her stress test.   I think she will hear some positive news because I am sure if it was anything important like last time the appt. would of been sooner.  The last time she had the test, that day by that night she was being admitted to the hospital for open heart surgery and testings.   She is a strong woman, there fore means so much to me.  My Papaw, I will have to say is her Angel in disguise.  If it wasn’t for his own health issues my Grandma’s would never of been diagnosed. 

I will keep this updated with any new updates.  I love my new blog!!!!
