Hey Everyone Well this is a quick update while I have a second- I am actually in the middle of like 10 different things right now but I did want to make sure to write in case for some unforeseen reason I don't get to later or sometime this weekend- You know how i tend to be on weekends- but that is going to have to change unless I can start perking up through the week. My dads mom still is hanging in there- I don't really know very many particulars mostly because I don't really ask- I do know that she went from not responding to like anything to sitting up and eating and talking last night. I think that people call this rallying? I don't know - I just want to say though either way Hospice people are really amazing I don't see how they do what they do! I have a sponsored post that is due tomorrow- hopefully I will get it done on schedule. I kind of got in the program late, so my first post was due almost immediately and then this one is 2 weeks after so it has been frantic and … [Read more...]

for whom the bell tolls
Hey Everyone Well.. this week sure has been a fast one! I started my bad habit of going to bed too early and sleeping in- and getting into that sleeping too much thing there for a couple of days and I had to snap myself back out of it! It all started with trying to go to bed when David did because he can't find his eye mask and the one my mom made him to replace it is too loose so my watching tv was bothering him and all that' - plus a few nights the channel I watch when I go to bed on the Roku has been acting up and being down a bit at night...anyways I finally found the eye mask that I had been using for a while and it worked out better for him! I have to go over to my mom and dads this evening to do a few things because they had to leave in a hurry yesterday morning because my dads mom is "actively dying" I didn't know what that meant and had the stupid urge to look it up and I wish I hadn't honestly because I don't do all that well with things related to death- even … [Read more...]
57 Degrees , Monday and the tooth is much better!
Hey Everyone well.. my weekend was mostly me resting because of my tooth- which is doing TONS better it just is still swelled on the jaw side right at the tooth and I am not sure where to go from here because it isn't sore like it was by any means so I am gonna see if it doesn't just get better on its own and then if it doesn't I guess I'll have to go to the dentist at some point. Honestly if I didn't KNOW that it was all swollen because I KNOW ..I wouldn't KNOW so.. it can't be that bad right ? lol I spent most of saturday burrowing with Marley and Sam while David was gone with his dad and alex to visit their grandma at the nursing home. I was fighting the tooth thing and it was so horribly rainy so I just went with it. Plus I had stayed up late friday evening so.. whatever. I watched a lot of tv and slept just as much but it was kind of a healing kind of sleep if you know what I mean. It was like not something I wanted exactly but it was like I needed it - I had lots of dreams … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Wine Fridge from hammacher schlemmer #review #sponsored #holidaygiftguide
If you have been reading the blog for any length of time, you likely know that I am a huge fan of Wine! I have actually started doing a little bit of "collecting" - I have been doing that with the "hard stuff" for quite a while but now I am trying to evolve that a little bit :) David and I had for a while been saying I needed a wine fridge to properly store my wines in, but it wasn't something that I had figured I would get anytime soon- and I was right it has been several years since that idea had popped into my head, but with getting some wine this summer when I went on a trip, and wanting to keep some of my moms wine on hand it was a little more on my radar because I don't have that much cabinet space! A really random thing about me? Usually in the past I haven't been one to drink my wine cold- I have been used to drinking it at room temperature or sticking my corksicle in it- or even the horrible sin of adding ice to my drink in the past (don't worry I … [Read more...]
whats with me and abscesses?
Hey Everyone Well- I have been having a fit with my back tooth since like Monday of this week. I had ate some popcorn on Sunday evening and I do have every belief that the original culprit is a rogue husk or two. However, I don't know if I over brushed the area trying to evict the husk (s) or what but it is quite angry. I ended up staying up after David left because I was feeling pretty awake and I was just laying there watching Fraiser and cuddling with Marley and Sam and it was KILLING me - I had rinsed it twice with some peroxide rinse and several times with warm water- tried to brush it and even tried to floss it - and subsequently numb it with anbesol. Anyways, I started to actually look at it and WHOA it was swelled to high heavens! I read that you can hold ice pack on it, like on your cheek -corresponding with where it is bothering you on the inside and it worked WONDERS. I have done it twice and it has been Amazing. I think I will keep that up and take some advil and … [Read more...]
where’d the PEP go?
Hey Everyone Well.. Today is D R A G G I N G like mad :( I don't have the PEP that I seemed to have yesterday either for some reason... I mean all isn't lost or anything but I think my mind is just a million other places than where it should be today. I am waiting on a package for David from FEDEX and generally they would have already been through here by now (both routes) but I haven't saw them just quite yet. I don't guess it really matters but I kind of would like the option to go cuddle in bed with my fur babes for a little while. OR take a shower or something- this package isn't on my package dashboard so it doesn't have my instructions of "leave at door" even though I have a note on the door- I would likely have to sign for it so.. I also have 2 packages coming that I know one of the two should be a swag box I was expecting but the other ? NO IDEA I am not expecting ANYTHING...so that should be fun. Oh and they are coming via the mail too- I am seriously going to check … [Read more...]
