In the works...

So so many things in the works. I am very happy today. I went to the hospital for some testing to se if I needed to ahve surgery and the wet reads were that all good and everything looked normal. *sigh of relief*. I have been battling this for years. it is nice I can see somewhat sunny skies for the moment.

Today Veronica and I are sewing getting ready for an event at the end of August. I can't wait to go. I haven't gone to an event since last summer.

A good weekend and a splitting migraine...

Had my friends down this weekend to roleplay WhiteWolf. We had a blast. The house was full, but not out of control. My migraine even kept at bay for most of the night. We all satyed up till after 6am this morning; even my friends daughter who had never stayed up all night before.

Drove everyone up this afternoon and returned them to thier homes. Of course about 20 minutes after we dropped everyone off I started to feel an aura of things to come. Voila, migraine time. Still have it, I even took a nap and my medicine. On the bright side, I am not too terribly dizzy at the moment.

I will type more tomorrow. Right now curling up in bed beside my love sounds like the best thing in the world.

Belle luna and Amore'........

*Chuckles*

Seems Barry ran into another jewish girl in the store the otyher day. The fact that we live in this town keeps popping up with jewish people is very strange, and somehow they all don't know about each other...lol. Anyway, I shouldn't say girl, his best estimate was 40 years old. He said she is very cute and they got along pretty well. so they have talked on the phone a few times and I told him ladt night just to get it over with and go on a date. Of course I would like to meet her first, but I am ok if not. She sounds cool and makes him smile, good enough for me. Anyway the cool thing about her is that she knows our relationship dynamic and when Barry was joking and flirting with her on the phone about going on a date she threatend that she just may want to take me out instead, and what if she liked me more?.. hehehe okay I love her already, he deserves to be jokingly shot down everyonce in a while. I am hoping to meet her soon. She sounds nice. There aren't many women out there that aren't going to go psycho crazy on a poly-married husband.

Maybe just maybe she'll be one of those exceptions to the rule.

Speaker for the dead...

What a great concept the speaker for the dead is.

Today my mother's mother died. Actualy she died less than an hour ago to be specific. The only thing is is that when most people lose a grandparent there is some loss
and at least thoughts of how good of the things they have done in their life. Well not the case this time. My mother and I are having a horrible time dealing with the memorial service arrangments. What do you say in ullagy about a person who absolutly contributed nothing to their childrens and grandchildrens lives?

You see, my grandmother became an alcoholic at age 14 (the same age as when she married). She had 9 children and 6 of them were not my granfathers, eventhough they were still wed. She had obvious numerous affairs and fought with him all the time. She would have a baby and then a week or so later go back to work leaving the other children to take care of it. My mother started running the house at age 4. At the tender young age most kinds are playing with blocks my mother was in charge of her two older brothers and an infant. By the age of 7 my mother was soley respnsible for the household chores, cooking, etc. My grandmother never let them play at friends houses and join school functions as kids. She would leave for work in the morning and head striaght towards the bar right afterwards, ahowing up at the house late at night and making my mother scrub floors or other duties that she didn't think had been done satisfactory. There were a few times were my greatgrandmother interviened and took the children out of the house and made a few of them live with her.

At the age of 16 my father's mother finaly got sick of my grandmothers abuse towards my mother and had her move in with her. (kicking my dad and his brother out of their room and made them stay in the bunkhouse on the farm).

As for my memories of my grandmother; She wasn't so nice to all of us as well. I would go and visit her when I was little, just to call my aunt in a few days to come and get me out of the house as quickly as possible. My grandmother started to give me alcohol at age 8 and tried to get me smoking by then as well. She would also lock me out of the house for the night and make me sleep on the porch if I didn't like what was for dinner or if I didn't know how to do a certain chore. I realy didn't care much for her as you can imagine.

So what do you say about a person like that? The only time she was nice was after she had drunk herself into dementia. She put my mother and her siblings and my grandfather though hell.

My mother has found one way, she is talking about her psot-mortal beliefs. I however am going to help out with the funeral arrangements, but will not be attending.

The cleaning fairy..

It seems the cleaning fairy has visited my house this morning! (that would be my daughter) I woke up and the house was clean. So I gave her a $5 bill for thanks. It is nice. Later today the boys are gonna do the rest of the dishes and stuff. I love my kids!

Barry is doing a managerial review tonight and may even get his own store to manage at work. Lots more money involved. It would be very nice.

Yummmmmy ice cream...

Still hot here today. Not as hot as it was yesterday. I just sent Barry to the store to get ice cream and cones for all of us here. Yummy! I don't eat ice cream that much, but right now sounds like the perfect time for it.

I finished reading a book I have long awaited for it arival. I was dissapointed in it, but was still entertained(if that makes any sense). Had a few conversations with Barry and Geoffery. They felt much the same. Although I think Geoffery was mroe dissapointed in it than me.

Veronica is here with the baby and cooling down while Kurtis gets their air conditioner hooked up. Tired as I am I get no nap realy till my house clears out. I hate being a lite sleeper, but that's the way it is. Oh well.

Kids are enjoying the sun and heat outside. yeah they're crazy lil' pumkins.

A little warm?

Today realy is alot cooler and less humid than the last few days. So why do I feel hotter? Especialy when I am sitting in an air conditioned house? I couldn't say, I just do. I even thought about picking up a new conditioner yesterday for the dowstairs, I did not; but boy did I think about strongly.

Barry has found a good movie he might go and audition for up in Portland on Wed. It sounds like a role right up his acting alley. I just hope he can get in without harming his schedule at work down here. Of course I am convinced if he just gets in the door for the audition he will get the part. That's the way he has always been. A great talent he has for entertaining on stage and in film.

I am thinking about taking the kids to the park today or something, but I am not sure the park is gonna be cool enough for us to all enjoy.

Oh well.
