I have been really distressed...

By all the ugliness I have seen on one of my boards that I post to. It REALLY saddens me. I actually had nightmares about it and was so sickened by it that I did not want to blog for a few days. I tried to make a PC post attempting to clams things - but who knows? I think I may have pissed off some people.
So I decided to take a step back and not look at the ugliness. I have just been looking at the nicer posts and posts from people who are geniunely upset. Poor Nicole - we all forgot to wish Jayden a Happy 1st bday. I didn't know it was her bday - but usually there is a post. With all the fighting, everyone forgot and I know Nicole was hurt. Then I have another friend on the board who I know is REALLY nervous about her u/s on Monday (no name mentioned cause I do not want to be telling personal info that I shouldn't be...), so I have been thinking good thoughts for her and her little bean. I know Megan's feeling well really hurt... but I don't believe that Margie would say something pruposely cruel like that. But sometimes what is said (written) and what is heard are two different things. I remember an expression that I used to use when I was a restaurant manager with my staff. Truth and perception seldom are the same thing. And then I even emailed Kyra and told her that when I wrote shit to the troll on her poetry blog that was sincere - but I think she thinks I am an asshole. And poor Tiffani - I have walked in her shoes.
I did get a really nice email from Suzanne and that was cool. It is very funny cause a year ago, I was so sure that I did not like her. And I really do! I llok forward to continuing to get to know each other better. When I read her blog sometimes it is like - hey, that's me! It is funny for the Pitts get together Leanna and Jess had THe Mister and Miss Samantha as a couple to get married in the future. I approve! But boy will that be one active house hold... and verbal too... The Mister with his F-ings and Samantha with her Dumbass, lol!
I am also thankful for Carie, who always makes me crack up. And she is so patient as I IM her about my kids poop. LOL! And I am glad that Den Momma is feeling better and going to head up the get together. I think that it is SOOO worth going. To meet someone in person is so different than reading some words on a page. That is why I LOVE many of these women. I have been lucky enough to meet them and get to know them.
Anyway, I babble once again. I guess I just like who I like and I hope if anyone has a beef with me that they just say so or ask if they have a question. And I am going to try NOT to worry and get upset anymore. To quote Will from BB5, "If Karma is a boomerang...." I like who I like, I am who I am (and yes Carie, I like spinach...I'm Wendy the sailor mom! *wink*).

Try to see it my way,
Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on?
While you see it your way,
Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone.
We can work it out,
We can work it out.
Think of what you're saying.
You can get it wrong and still you think that it's alright.
Think of what I'm saying,
We can work it out and get it straight, or say good night.
We can work it out,
We can work it out.
Life is very short, and there's no time
For fussing and fighting, my friend.
I have always thought that it's a crime,
So I will ask you once again.
Try to see it my way,
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong.
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long.
We can work it out,

Kit update...
by

on Tue 26 Oct 2004 04:37 PM PDT
Fluid, fluid, and did I mention fluid? Not infected now, but at a risk for another infection. But the doc said that all the fluid is still very uncomfortable and can be painful. Great. Being that we just stopped the Vantin today, I predict another ear infection in about a week. Grrrr... The doc says that we will recheck in 4 weeks. If Kit still has fluid or gets another ear infection before then, I am going to insist on being referred to an ENT and I want tubes for him.Thanks everyone for well wishes for my little man and the advice on tubes. After everything Sam went thru, I am increadabley ok with Kit getting tubes - especially cause we would go to the same ENT that did Sam's airway surgery. They are the best and they are with Children's Hospital in Philly.
Today at nursery school Sam made a Halloween hat and was SOOOO proud when we picked her up and she was wearing it. She still hates being dropped off, but once we are gone, she has a great time. While Sam was in school, Ben, Kit and I went to the mall and we found the same Halloween outfit that we got for Sam, in Baby Kit's size. AND it was 50% off, so we bought it. Now we will have 2 Ra-ra's as Sam says (AKA 2 dragons). They will be SOOO cute. We are going to drive down to my parents on Sunday and let them trick or treat there. It should be fun.
Click here to see Baby Kit as a Ra-RA
Last night, Ben and I got some one-on-one time! WOO HOO!!!!! The kids were sleeping, so we lit some candles, played some mellow tunes and slow danced for awhile. It was really nice....
Then we *****censored***** hanging from the *****censored***** and it
was shocking but *****censored***** and then
I *****censored***** and I screamed when he *****censored***** . After that we both had smiles on our faces. :)
And tonight at work it was busy, but good busy and tips were decent. So my tired bones are aching, but it is worth the ache. More later Buckaroos!

Trolls piss me off...
by

Dammit! I enjoy reading people's blogs - even when their opinions are different from mine. I don't even mind a heated debate. But what really annoys me is trolls that are just out there to cause nothing but trouble or to be hurtful.
I once posted under a fake name (*blush* *cough, Madeline, cough* *blush*) because another person on a tag board pissed me off and for some reason I was too chicken to post under my name. Well I decided back then that was stupid and if I had something to say that I was just going to say it. And now I do. At least I can honestly say that Madeline was a lesson learned for me.
I think that is why now trolls bother me even more than before. They are just doing what they do to be assholes. And then what happens is the blogger pulls their blog and I lose my good read! Grrrrrr....... Can't trolls just take up another hobby like mastrubation or something? That would occupy both their hands and mind, right?
Anyway.... unrelated funny....
Today I went to the carpet store to look at some samples for Baby Kit's room. His carpet is a million years old and the floor boards underneath need to be nailed down better. I also found the cutest flooring for the bathroom. It is white with little blue paw prints that glow in the dark... but I digress. So, when we are there, Sam tells me that she has to poop. Luckily the store is right down the street from our house. So I finish up and we go.
When we get home, I tell Sam that we can go to the potty now to poop. She puts her hands on her hips and informs me, "Sam has no poop in her butt. Only pee and farts."
"Really?" I ask trying not to laugh. "Yes, the farts tricked me but there is only pee and farts momma. Pee and farts only," she finished and went and sat on the sofa.
This may not read as funny but can I tell you that when she looked at me so seriously and explained this to me - I nearly fell over laughing. It was just the funniest thing!
More unrelated - Kit cut his tooth!!!! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And yet another unrelated - my friend came up to see me (one half of the couple that is spliting up...). She is a mess, but I am glad that I got to spend time with her. It seems that when long term couples split, often one person is devestated and the other becomes an asshole. Time will be the best healer for her.
Sad new - my mom had to put Lucky to sleep tonight. He could no longer eat and had lost 8lbs in 2 weeks. That is a lot for a cat - even one that was as fat as Lucky was. I hope my fat little cat has found his buddys now that he has crossed Rainbow Bridge.

A few worries, prayers and concerns...

One of my and Ben's best friends are spliting up. We are close w/ both of them. They have been together 8 years. They got together the summer after us. And the 4 of us have been close since that summer. I think it is hitting me hard cause it is the first of my friends who have been together for a loooooong time divorcing. And of course it is getting ugly and that just breaks my heart. Prayers for my friends.
Second concern and prayer is for Miss Emily. There are no words to express my sorrow for you loss. If you do read this, know my heart is breaking for you. I am so sorry.
Third is for my wack-a-doodle who may have Lupis and the dumb ass doesn't want to make an appt w/ a specialist. She is such an Einstein, that crazy wack-a-doodle of mine.
Fourth, my cat Lucky has a cancer and has a week or two to live. I rescued him when he was a kitten and he has been w/ my folks for a long time. I know I saved him and because of that he has had a happy life, but it saddens me to know his time is almost up.
I wish health, happiness and strength for all that need it for all my family and friends. And I thank God for the good fortune that I have and the blessings I have in my family - husband and children.
Help me out....

The party was fun. The drive as long. The kids had a blast but passed out on the way home. My uncle gave me his old snow blower that he didn't want. WOO HOO! And my voice is still shot and my throat hurts. Ben is on his way home. To bad that I am too tired to enjoy time w/ him w/ the kiddos being asleep *wink, wink*. Oh well...

Fast and Furious...

I got sick, but I am actually feeling better. I can not talk (torure!) and my cough is bad, but I feel much better. Very strange, but hey, who am I to complain?
So today with Ben home, we packed up the kiddos and went to see A Shark something with Will Smith. SUCKED! Very boring! But it was fun for Ben and I going with Sam and Kit. Sam was fascinated with everything! She loved getting a treat and sitting in the big girl seats. We brought a lawn chair and the boppy for me and Kit. He nursed for awhile and then enjoyed hanging out. We set up in the handicap area and even brought a blanket, so the kiddos could play with toys quietly while we watched. There were a few other parents there w/ young kids too. We made it half way thru, which was fine. When you go to the movies w/ a 2.5 year old and a 9 mth old, you know going in that you may never see the end of the movie. As it was, the movie really did suck, so Ben and I did not care, lol!
We then got the kiddos down for a nap and I got to nap too! Ben enjoyed some quiet time on the computer, playing his games.
Tonight I lit Shabbat candles and said Shabbat prayers. Ben said it was nice, but I know he thinks it is a little strange. But he still is supportive. I remember when Sam was in the hospital last summer, that one of the Chaplins mentioned that when really horrific things happen, many people find God. I was too busy trying to take care of everybody to really think one way or the other about it. But here I am 14 months later, and I have found that religon is much more important to me. I want my kids to have tradition and God in their lives. So I am not about to get all freaky about it and but I think there are little things that I can do to keep it at home too. Ben and I decided that Sunday School and family service once a month is good, but I want the kids to see us practicing at home what is learned at Temple. My Gosh, sometimes I sound like such a grown up. I guess at 35 I am a grown up, lol!
Tomorow I am going to Philly with the kids. My cousins, the twins, are turning 3 and we are going for their bday party. The ride will be long, but I am hoping to catch the kids at nap time and hopefully they will sleep. I know they will enjoy the party. With no voice, I don't know how much conversing I will be doing though.
On that note, I am off to bed.
I am sick AGAIN!!!!!

I have no voice, my chest hurts, my body hurts and I haven't been able to keep anything down. Please join me for a pity party, table for one...
But little Samantha is such a source of sunshine. She sat on the sofa with me after I got baby Kit to sleep and covered me with blankets and brought over ALL her stuffed animals (quite the pile...) and said that she was taking care of me cause "mama is sick." She stroked my head and brought over pretend glasses of water. She is such a sweet child and I love her so much!
At one point Baby Kit woke and I brought him down to nurse him. Sam sat on the other side of the boppy. She stoked his beautiful face as I stroked hers. Boy I love my kids! And then when Ben got home, he told me that he arranged to get tomorrow off (usuing sick time) so he could take care of me. I am SOOOOO lucky to have such a wonderful family!
On a completely other note... what is going on that is making everyone change their blog addys? Is there a blog troll causing trouble? Cause I can breath my sick germs his/her way and do some serious damage....
Hot tea and toast for me...

I FIGURED OUT HOW TO CHANGE MY BLOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I had a better night at work. No Butt-Weasels tonight - hip, hip, hurray!
And even better, Baby Kit is feeling better! Ben and I are hoping that he sleeps thru the night. The past few, he had needed to be held all night and we are tired parents.
Sam and I watched the movie Legend together today and she LOVED it. She actually sat thru the WHOLE movie. She LOVED the unicorns!
OK, brain cells ceasing to exist. Must sleep!

So there!

that says please, run my ass, tell me I am great and then tip me 10%> I could have sworn I took that sign off before I went into work tonight. I mean, shit, what would I get if I sucked? Do I look like I am independantly wealthy? Is it all the jewels I wear? (NOT!) Do people really think I am waiting tables cause I have nothing better to do? FRUSTRATING!!!!! I guess if I was bad it would be one thing, but why tell me I am great and then give me crap???!!!!!
Yes folks, it was one of those nights at work tonight. Makes me really love the general public, y'know? Well at least it is over and I am home. YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And hopefully all the butt monkeys came out tonight, so tomorrow night will be better. But overall, I do like working and for the most part the money is good.
BTW - check out my gallery! And tell me what ya think!!!!!

The Boy has ANOTHER ear infection....
by
welee
on Mon 11 Oct 2004 04:26 PM PDT
I feel so badly for him!!!!! And he still has fluid from his last ear infection 3 weeks ago. I hope this dose of antibiotics clears it and no more. I really don't want Kit to have to get tubes. :( And to boot his 2 top teeth are right about thru. Last night he would only sleep if I held him - which of course I did. And the angel he is - he was sooooo good at the doctor's office today.
AF finally found me and is as gross as I remember. Boy a reason to stay permanantly preggo is to keep that hag away! I now can relate to how Kit feels in his diapers - YUCK!
Last Thurs. we went to the pumpkin patch for Sam's field trip and it was soooooo much fun! Sam is still talking about it! Sam is getting so big so quickly - *SIGH*. And she is really doing well with the school thing.
Lately I have had things booked for every single day - but I am going to try to make sure to get some time in for me. I really miss blogging. So today I spent some time tweaking my blog and now I look forward to writing again. So be forewarned my fellow blog readers... HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHHA!

I have finally decided where I stand...
by

on Sat 02 Oct 2004 04:25 PM PDT
On the presidental race? Really? No, not really... (like the Doritos commercial...) But I know how I feel on the baby front of whether I want more kids or not. I know we are not in a financial position to have more - money, our house size, our car size... so I should feel grateful to have the two I do, especially being that there was a time that we weren't sure if we were going to be able to have kids. But I really think I want another one.
I think with my friends Michelle and Emily being preggo again, my cousin Andrea is pregnant again and another woman I know as well as so many friends recently giving birth or about to (LABOR VIBES to you Susan!) - I have caught baby fever.
I was on a play date yesterday w/ 2 friends I have that have kids the same age as Sam and Kit. They both were so certain that they are done. They said that they did not like their pregnancies and they both felt overwhelmed with 2 little ones. Maybe I am a weirdo, but I LOVED being pregnant - even when I was sick and even when I looked like a beached whale. There was something about carrying my child inside of me that far outweighed any physical hardship. And granted there are times that I am very, very busy and I can't wait to get the kiddos in bed, but most of the time I am really loving being home with my kids. I know a 3rd would make things busier, but so what?
I haven't told Ben how I feel yet. I think he is pretty happy with 2, but he was happy when we just had 1. He is soooo in love with our kids like I am. Fatherhood truly suits him. And he knows we are not using any birth control. He has also made references as we have put some of baby Kit's stuff away that we will save it for next time. So I am wondering if secretly he thinks there will be a next time. But he may also think it is a non issue being that it was so hard to conceive Sam and that I had to plan out and work him (poor baby - sooooo much sex...) to get preggo w/ Kit.
Maybe I am just hormonal cause I have been feeling O pains again and today I had some EWCM. Who can say?
