Good News!

We bought a house!!!!



We signed the papers a couple days ago and we close August 21st. Yeah!! Its a brand-spankin'-new house, and we are so excited there's no work to do before we move in.



Here it is.......

fa.ce.b.oo.k

Ugh!!!

I just started using fb and so far I am NOT impressed. Am I doing something wrong?? Everybody seems to love it, but its so annoying to me!! I dunno how much I'll use it if its gonna be non-user-friendly.....

Feel free to post comments on what I'm doing wrong, how to use it better, getting around in fb, and ANYthing else you can think of that might make me like it better. :o))

Thanks girls - you rock!!

UPDATE-(ish)

Well, I don't know if this is really considered an update. Things haven't really gone anywhere around here, unless you consider moving backwards an update............Argh! I hope you know what I mean, cause I can't type what I'm trying to say......Ugh, its happening again!

I'm gonna try to tell you whats been rolling around in my head the last couple of weeks. Bear with me, here goes nothing........

Today is CD7. I was 4-5 days late,(I choose not to remember) it was really light and only lasted a couple of days. This cycle is all backwords with the pms symptoms. I don't know if it has anything to do with being a few days late, but I had NO symptoms before I started. My lower back didnt hurt, I wasn't "witchy", my boobs didn't hurt, AND, I didn't even want chocolate!?!?

We put an offer in on a house last week. Apparently, we were the ONLY people who had looked at it, then all of a sudden we were in a bidding war for the house......long story short, someone out-bid us so we did not get it. I wasn't really bummed about losing the house, but rather I was so close to having my own place, and then a door slammed in my face!

My job is still up in the air.......I am being laid off at the end of August, but they say if they have any openings they will fill it internally. I guess thats good, but there are 5 of us and I've only heard of 3 possible positions.....so who knows. They have asked me about my work history and if I would be interested in some of the openings, but they have also asked 2 other girls too. *sigh*

We found another house yesterday, only to find out (as we are walking in the front door) that "this house already has a contract on it." Fine, I'm use to having back-up plans.......so we go see our 2nd choice. It was nice, but we were not a hundred percent and decided to look at the one across the street. Keep in mind they are built by the same builder..........Well the house across the street does not have carpet installed yet and there was quite a few cracks in the foundation. Needless to say, we are now leary of that builder and not going to purchase one of his homes.

All these things and other stuff that I am not even going to mention because this has gotten too long have been welling up in me....I have fought back the tears ALL DAY. I get home(to mamaw's) and she asks me what I think about the quilt she is making me.................Remember I told you that she was going to make me baby quilts.................Well, I turn around to look and its a John. D.eer. baby boy quilt. I almost lost it. I really don't know how I held it all in. The only thing I do know, is when I go to bed, I just might cry myself to sleep.

If your still reading this, thanks! I just needed to get this out......

82/104

82 - thats the number of degrees it was this morning at 7:30am on my way to work.....

104 - thats the number of degrees it was at 5:00pm on my way home from work!


AND, only in Texas do we get excited about a cold front coming this weekend with highs in the mid to upper 90's!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, and August is always our HOTTEST month, so its only gonna get worse.........

~update~

Well, my UTI went away, I started to get the "yolanda" infection from the antibiotics, but I nipped that in the bud(per say).

My week has started off very badly. Mom called me yesterday morning(at work) and told me my 24 yr old cousin had died from an accidental overdose. I immediatly reverted back to when I lost my brother and I feel so bad for what her brothers are now going through.

Then, J called me yesterday afternoon(at work) and told me to come home so we could go to the hospital. My 2 year old niece had broken her leg(the femur) and they had taken her to the local hospital. She was then Care Flighted to a (bigger town's), children's hospital. She is now home and in a full body cast for 6-8 weeks.

This morning(at work) my bosses boss came in and said they are changing things around at the end of August and will only be keeping 2 people for medical records. So me and 4 other girls are getting laid off in a month!

This is a bad way to start off the week.........I hope J & I start getting some good news soon.

Today's Dr Appt.......

So I woke up early this morning (about 4am) with a UTI. Ugh, I was in so much pain, I found a pill from the last time I had one and finally fell back asleep around 6am, right before the alarm started going off. I went to work and by the way, if you've ever had a really bad one you know that it hurts to walk or even to drive down a bumpy road, so that was no fun. Well, it was getting worse and I started having blood in my urine so I made a dr appt.

The Dr walks in and says, "You have the good kind of infection!" and immedietely my mind goes to pregnancy.......WHY? Why does my mind tease like that? Well, not only am I not pg, but Dr thinks my infection is a good thing, all because I apparently have the "good bacteria". How can bacteria be good?.....It's BACTERIA!?!?!

Other than that, he was a good Dr. Let me choose which antibiotic I wanted AND gave me Vicodin for pain!! What a doc!!

Thanks & Happy 4th

~1st off, I want to say a big "Thank-You" to all of you wonderful & awesome ladies!! Thanks for all your kind words and sweet comments in my last post. You really know how to make a girl feel better. You are all so sweet and dear to me......thanks again!!

Nothing new here. I'm still homeless, still childless, still having meltdowns..............No where near close to getting pregnant......Still just plain, boring ol' me.
