U Gotta Be Kiddin Me

Need to look into some progesterone creams to help relieve some of my PMS issues that I've been having lately. Last month was absolutely terrible. The one day was so uncomfortable, the tummy hurt so bad. I was bent over most of the day. I laid down to try and help relieve the pain. But it never helped. I missed a day of work, because of the pain. And other problems too. I need to make a doctor appt. to see about getting some relief when it comes time for the monthly to start. Well I am going to finish watching my TV show..Deal or No Deal. This hairdresser is about shave this dudes back....omg its so gross. For a $100 bucks which she did...lol. That was absolutely gross. LOL. What we get stuck watching nowadays. Next is that Celebrity Circus...lol.

This past week, I've been working longer hours and its wearing me out. I am trying to work longer hours so I can get in 40 hours this week. I have some bills that need to get paid big time. Like my internet...oops. I hope it will make it til' next Friday. I guess I will see. I am leery on taking any energy pills. I saw my co-worker take something and she was all loopy. Not sure what it was, but I don't think it was a energy pill. She is one of those young people who can go and go for hours. Not me...I am worn out before I make it home. But tonight I have laundry to get done before I go to bed. All my shirts and pants are dirty. I wear certain socks to work because I don't want those stupid tan lines around my ankles. So I need to get motivated here so I can go to bed early tonight.

My Ex Mother In Law went to Texas earlier this week to visit my Son's Aunt.  Well actually my nephew is having to get a prothstetic eye.  Not long ago his little brother had poked his eye, and it did alot of damage.  enough for him to lose his eye.  As soon as she found out she went online to find some cheap flights well actually my Ex Sister in Law probably did since she is more internet savy. She went down to North Carolina first then home and now to Texas. I feel so bad for my little nephew. He is such a cutie pie. Now this is something he has to live with for the rest of his life. Poor guy. I hope she lets me know how he's doing.

I missed the Flood of 93'. I lived in Rockford at the time so I only saw the after effects while I visited my Parents back then. But living back here today, seeing the devastation and how wide spread it is. And especially how its affecting my family members. My Grandparents who live within a couple miles of the river, are watching the water levels in their town. Its very close to the top of the levee. And then my Ex Hubby called today and said that the water is up by his house as well. He took some pictures that ended up on website of his newspaper. And I hate to sound mean and nasty. But you see on the news that the President says lets get focused on the flood waters, blah, blah, blah.... Give me a break Mr President...look at what happen with Hurrican Katrina...look at those people. Why are you going to start something now? The damage is done. Help the families that were affected. Especially the people who never would of thought it would hit them. Cedar Rapids, IA. For example 1300 city blocks affected. People who lived in the downtown area in the buildings. You never would of assumed it would happen to them. SO many people...the Red Cross is in the red now so that means minimal help for the families who so need the help.

I've been taking lots of pictures of the massive flood that is trying to invade our cities. Its so massive its not even funny.

Life has been so tragic the last two days. Since Thursday Night, seeing that funnel cloud out my back door. I have been traumatized. Going to places and seeing the damage. Just by driving down the road and seeing things ruined from this wicked weather pattern. And again, right now. We have a isolated storm shower....right over our area. Why oh why? does this keep happening? So many people are displaced right now, its not even funny.

We just went thru HELL. The tornado sirens went off like crazy just a little bit ago. I looked out my front door....didn't see nothing. Only calmness. No wind. Nothing. Absolute silence. Then it went all crazy. I went to the back door and saw my life pass in front of me. I started crying and called my Mom. I truly needed my Mom at that moment. Even though I called her earlier to make sure she was alright...all along it was I that needed comfort. It was huge. It was turning. I know it was a funnel cloud. I watched it. I was mesmerized by it. But now, we are under the gun yet again. Another cell popped up. More Tornado watches...Warnings....Thunder all over the place. I have my laptop but its not plugged into the wall. Too much lightning in the area. When the news was on, we had 235 strikes within a 20 minute period. I keep watching it out the window. And speaking of Lightning, not sure what happened but we have a fire that just broke out in downtown Davenport, IA. My Dad just called me to let me know. Funny thing is, I was just down in that area tonight taking pictures of the swollen Mississippi. One reason why I hate Satellite TV...is in storms they tend to go out. I had to reset my receiver just now to get the news on. Please God..Please...if for once. Please stop the insanity right now. Its enough already. Ok, I got my sign just now. A little town just south of me is needing help sandbagging. Its something I need to do. I did it back in 2000 and saved a business. I will head into work first thing, make sure things are ok. But then I am going to go help. I have too.

I am sure you have all heard about the Boy Scout camp in Little Sioux, Iowa. That was hit by a deadly tornado. In our local newspaper, people are just mean and nasty. Asking why would they be out there to begin with and why weren't they prepared. Not trying to sound tasty myself here but I will say these Boys were prepared. I've seen the Boy Scouts in action. In fact the weekend we went camping we had tornado warnings out. We stood back, watched the weather and then proceeded to go camping. And where we were was in a deep raveen. Bad thing about that is all the water comes down the hills. It was very muddy. And that's ok. The boys survived. The Boys had fun. We watched, and paid attention to the weather. What I don't understand is why people can be negative over something that is beyond our control...and our destiny. I am not the most religious person in the world here, but hearing about the deadly tornado last night has brought me to think. Why is God doing this? Is there really a God? Or is the end really coming? Right now at this very moment, I am typing my blog and we have Severe ThunderStorm Warnings all over the place. My Grandparents have a Tornado Warning, well now its expired. Phew, but its still not over. Its heading right for us here. I am scared. We have no basement here. Just a small, tiny closet. Now I am heading to check out where my job is located in Minnesota to see if they were hit again by the storms yesterday.

I simply refuse to watch a certain movie, and that movie is The Perfect Storm. It takes me back to when I was married. It reminds me of how I failed in my marriage. It hurts to watch it. Because for one, my Ex Husband never really loved me like I wanted him too. And it still hurts to this day. Cause I see that I wasted so much of my life with him. Only wanting one thing from him. That was love. Little did I know what Love really was. Seriously. little did I know. Like right now, I am sitting here in tears still. I actually cried outloud..hoping I didn't wake my Son...lol. How sad am I right now?

Said she is looking for baby bedding for her baby crib. I had a nice set for her. But due to the move, everything got shuffled around and things got lost. It was a beautiful set. So now I need to see if I can't help her find some nice sets. Her little girl needs a nice bed with some nice bedding. Speaking of, she stopped by the other night. I got some cute little pictures of that little sweet baby girl. She had the most beautiful brown eyes. And her smile is just wonderful. I love it. Well, its getting super late here. To me its almost 11pm and that's pretty late for me. I am tired for some reason. I took today off. Enjoyed it with my Son. Since it was his Birthday, I bought him his game that he loves. He's been playing all day. I started playing the game with him, and it was so much fun playing the Lego's Indian Jones game.
