Today is Today

Today is Today.. it does not help to worry about tomorrow, next week, next month or on... Think, plan, and dream, but not dwell, fear, or have anxiety about what may come or what may go away. Today is Today. Remember to Breathe. Stay Balanced. Blessed Be.

I posted this as a status an facebook awhile back, and friends really liked it. I want to use the photoshop program and do something with it.

TV trays can be DEADLY!!

Ok, I am not a fan of TV trays to begin with, but they are a convenience item. They are used in my house regularly. Yes, I admit we are not a family that sits down at the dining room table to eat. To many different work schedules, as well as cats that have their food up there. (yeah disgusting!!! not going to be when we move into our own place!!!!) so anyway, the tv trays....

Last night I after closed the living room blinds, I stepped back and turned I was going to grab a bowl and spoon to take to the kitchen. My right foot got stuck in the chair (the foot rest part.. don't ask why or how- it just did). My momentum was going though and so I was now going forward and DOWN! There was a tv tray right there, it collapsed under me. I almost got impaled by the leg. My left knee slammed down into the carpet. I am not sure where my right hand come down at, but my middle finger and knuckle were/are hurting. My left wrist connected with a stored play pen, right between the pinkie and ring finger knuckles. I will save you on all the language that I said in the following 10 seconds, than the pain of my left knee registered. Tears, more cuss words, tears, more cuss words... by that time Suzanna was over to help me. She straighten the tv tray, and was waiting for me to recover. It took a minute, but I got up.

SO.............I HURT!!! Here it is the next day... I can feel a bruise on the right leg, my left knee is tender and has a bruise.. (I bruise QUICKLY!!) My left wrist hurts, just plain hurts. It hurts to type too much (so what do I do... BLOG.. *shaking my head*) Both of my wrists hurt as well as my shoulders and my neck. But the worst is my stomach. I am serious when I said I was almost impaled!! I have a big lump and bruise about an inch under my rib and about 3 inches to the left of center. I am sitting up pretty dang straight, as it hurts to slouch..

anyway, there is my story and I am sticking to it...

Tuesday, Tuesday... May 24

Well, here is it time passed and it has been awhile. I try to get on more often but it just does not happen that way. Anyway just wanted to do a quick Hello to my blog. And might as well do the quick ponder in my brain also.....

Paying the mortgage.

I know that we wanted and needed a place to live, but I still worry about paying all the bills. On thing which I am not sure about yet, is NO t.v. - yes I will miss some shows. But with internet these days, you are only a day behind.

So there that is my ponder for the day.

yes it is Mothers Day.

I seriously need to post more blogs. I enoy reading others but then I never think to post something on mine. So here I am, as the title says, yes it is Mothers Day. Up until today I wanted to go and buy some flowers to put on my moms burial site.. I have problems calling it a grave. So it is a burial site. Oh, as I was saying when I woke up this morning I decided that I did not want to go and buy flowers. I don't want sappiness today! I logged on long enough to facebook to say that. Went and played Flutter, by the time I was done two of my friends agreed that this day is not a happy day for all. I was fine until some put sappiness into their comment!! Granted I do love her, being Suzanna's mom, it is just that ever since my mom was really sick and then passed on, it has been really hard for me to call someone a mom. No one can replace my mom! I don't want anyone to!!!! If you knew my mom, you would know that she was a straight foward person, but she also had lots of character to her also.

Here is a poem that I wrote about her...


Dedicated to my mom,
Mom,
I still feel you around the house,
At times, I hear you laughing,

Every time I see a mouse in the house,
I remember the time you threw your books at one. (and killed one)

I miss watching movies with you,
As you would drive us all nuts by rewinding,
And rewinding your favorite parts. (by the way Kenny has started to do this! haha)

You are a hero to me, the bravery you showed
While fighting a losing battle, I will never forget!!

Eight years ago on November 11th my mom passed away after a long hard fight with cancer. I miss her dearly. (it is nine years now! this November will be ten)

Mom
I Love You,
I Miss You
Tina

This is my little man!!! My GREAT Nephew James!!

Witness to the miracle of life!!

My weekend starting out kinda slow, but about 9:30 am got a text from my nephew telling me they were going to the hospital. Wouldn't ya know it was right in the middle of cooking breakfast!!! Anyway, finished breakfast and took off. Got a text and 10:23 saying she was at 5cm! By that time I was like "well, it still might be a while" told kenny to get his nintendo.

On the way there (hospital is only 10-15 minutes away) at 10:36 got a text saying "water broke"... OMG getting excited!!!!

At 10:37 got a text saying she was at 8cm!!!

We got there, my dad, and my son came in and said Hi, then I shooed them off. Everthing was happening kinda fast.. so fast that the doctor told her there was not enough time for an epidermal.. YIKES!! they did give her something for the pain, but she said it was not helping.

It was a little before 11 am when the nurse was having her push with contractions. This nurse I have known for a long time graduated high school together 20 years ago. Kinda cool she was the nurse and that John and Katie said she was nice!! Thanks Kathryn!!!

Poor Katie! No Drugs and tired as heck!! Her friend had to help hold her head up during pushing. Well then they moved her and I got to help hold her head up. I got to see the birth of my Great Nephew!! (saying it that way makes me sound old!!!! I am only 39!!! sheesh) I have only ever been to one other birthing and that was when I had Kenny (13 years ago!!!!)

At 11:24 am James Douglas Little was brought into the world!!!
