LOVE

Love... such a powerful word that people use to easily these days.

I love my husband, my dogs, my mom, my dad... get the picture. How many people actually love their friends? I can honestly say , I do. There are a lot of people in my life that I am not afraid of telling them that I love them, but then are those I do and am afraid to say that I do for fear of how they may take it.

I am aching for the day that I can experience the love of motherhood. Don't get me wrong, I love Belle more anyone could (can), but she's not with me all the time and I ache to have the unconditional love that a mother-daughter can have.

The ladies karate class is going to Tully's Saturday night! I can't wait.. We are going have so much fun, great fellowship...

Half way to Black Belt

Last week I took my Purple Belt test. I was sooo nervous, I've never been that nervous before. I think it was because we practiced so much for the show in August and then rushed to learn everything before the test. Bu Kwang Ja Nim is such a good teacher that I passed with mostly E's. I didn't get to the belt presentation so BKJN gave me my belt last night before Tai Chi. I also got a new sash for Tai Chi- Green.

We are learning a new form in Tai Chi-the Chen Movement. It is totally different than the Yang movement. A lot more depper stances and quicker. I am not sure how I feel about it yet. Last night was the 2nd class.

Last Thursday I went to the foot doctor for my Turf Toe. Dr. Nuss- he's really nice, he has worked on Pete Rose, Paris Hilton and other famous folks. He gave me a shot in my foot and said the reason my Turf Toe is taking so long to heal is because of the Fibromaligia. Thanks!

That night I went to bed at 8pm and good thing because, Mother in Law called and said Uncle was dying. K said he couldn't go and watch him die. Well, being the nice girl I am, I could let MIL be by herself, so I went to the hospital. MIL took a nerve pill before I got there, at 2am she was upset so I told her to take another one. SHe later started getting sick at her stomach. I called DH and told him to bring sick stomach pills for her. She took one and then basically passed out on me in the other bed. Uncle passed away at 3:27 am. This was the 1st death for his Nurse, since I had been there with My Flossie, I was a pro.... I called DH afterwards and have him come be with me, I had to sign the death certificate and other paperwork since MIL was out cold.... We didn't get to his Nanny's till after 5am. I then had to take care of everything the rest of the day.
No sleep, death, grave, funeral clothing, services.... What am I missing out on???? SLEEP!!!! Oh yeah, found out MIL had taken a total of 3 nerve pills, no wonder she was out cold!

The day of the services MIL passed out as the pallbearers were taking Uncle's body to the hearse. Called the ambulance to come get MIL and take to her the hospital. Wonder what kind of pills she took? She was put in the hospital for dehydration and exhaustion, extreme....
She was out before 8am the next day. Extreme...

I still haven't caught up on my sleep even though I am trying. So congrats to me on achieving my Purple Belt.. I've also been asked to join the Black Belt club. Still trying to decide when I should or if I should. I know that black belt is a goal, I just don't know how long it will take me. Ki-Hap!

TIME IS SLOW...

I have had an eventful life since I've last written. K's Uncle is not getting better, of course we knew that. I went to the nursing home sat. evening and the nurse on duty hadn't given him his pain meds all day. When I would ask her to give him a shot she would put me off, I finally called the charge nurse and told her like it was.

Dr. Reed had the ambulance to come get him and take him to the hospital. He is now on a morphine drip. He is still holding on. Nan did tell him it was OK to "go home". Belle got ticked off at her Mom because she wouldn't come to the hospital and be with her. Belle hung up on her 2x. She said her Mom was drinking (which she shouldn't since she has Crohn's) and that was why she wouldn't come, Belle said that probably wasn't all she was doing.... Poor thing I felt so bad for her. Ex-wife then had the nerve to call K and make it his fault, like we were putting Belle up to be mad at her... She is such a quack!!!

Work is good.

I did take my belt test last night, I am now a Purple belt!! I've been asked to join the Black Belt Club.. I don't know what that entails, I'll have to find out and then make a decision.

Thank Goodnes it's Friday!

What a week it's been! Busy at work and home. Last night I went to see the JR. High Volleyball team play. A friend of ours plays on the team and an old friend coaches. I had to take the coach to the ER. last night. She lost her vision, she was having a migraine and didn't know it. Her husband came after we had been there a while and brought the kids. They are sooo cute, the baby looks like a girl(he's not). They did good considering we out way past their bed time. Any who, the volleyball team won! Yeah! Christa scored a point! I took yesterday off to have Direct TV installed, love the DVR!
K's Uncle isn't much better. We are suppose to go to Sha-sha's new house tomorrow to help her paint. I worked out at the gym Wednesday and now I am in soo much pain, I'm not sure I can go back today! Hopefully this long weekend won't have as much drama as last weekend!

DRAMA OVER THE WEEKEND

Belle told us she witnessed the neighbor abuse his girlfriend's daughter so now she has to go to court and testify what she saw. OK, now she is only 14 years old and now this. The neighbor's girlfriend's daughters are staying with Belle, A & B. The Mother is staying with B's ex- girlfriend! OMG......


I asked Belle about the wedding bands and she said she doesn't think they are married, she said they went to Wal-Mart, bought wedding rings and said, we are married. In Belle's words " They are such red necks!" HAHAHA Out of the mouth of babes. She said all weekend that B gets on her nerves so bad, I told her she could come live with us if she wanted.

I had a dream about my brother last night. I dreamt that he came to my Granny's house and I was there sick, watching TV. He wanted some of my Granny's stuff. I told him, he should have been there when she died instead of waiting 6 months after she died to get her stuff. I haven't spoken to my brother in a year. He is brain-washed by his wife.

K's Uncle isn't getting any better. He's ready to die. It's so sad to see someone who's dieing and knowing that he regrets drinking himself to death. I am so glad K did not get that disease.

See I told you too much Drama~

CRAZY BABY'S MOMMA

My husband spoke to his daughter last. She's coming to spend the weekend with us. Her thief of an Uncle is down from East TN. Her Mom can't stand him cause he steals all the time but yet lets him come to her new boyfriend's house and stay. I hope the new boyfriend has everything locked down!

We had a great supper last night! Cuban Pork Chops, steamed baby carrots with honey drizzled on it and salad. YUM! Trying to eat as healthy as we can. I hope today goes by fast at work.

I just got back from the Chiro. He popped by back once. My Turf Toe is still killing me. Will it ever get better? 8 Months is way too long to be in pain. Dr. T says he will get me better. I really do hope so.

We are going out to eat tonight I sure hopes it not Chinese. K and Belle love it, I'm getting burned out. Hope you have a great weekend!

My 1st attempt at Blogging

Hi,
I am new at this and fell kinda weird doing this. I love reading all the other blogs I have been reading and thought what the heck. I live in Middle TN and it's terribly hot here. 13 days in 100 + degree temps. I should weigh 100 lbs by now as hot as I have been! I am taking Karate and Tai Chi. I was taking kick boxing but developed Turf Toe and had to quit. Turf Toe is not that normal in Martial Arts but, you will soon find out that I am not that normal. I live with my husband of 3 years and our 2 inside (weenie) dogs. We also have a coon dog (A walker). Love my fur babies. We are trying to get pregnant and it's driving me crazy. More on that later. I hope that we all have fun with this blog!
