4 Years later And.......
Its been 4 years since my last blog. So much has changed yet so much has stayed the same. As of Feb 2011 I dropped some much needed weight.. ( 260lbs of that included the husband.... now ex...) I lost 80 lbs myself and never felt better. Left my job, packed up my kiddo and moved to small town country Georgia... Seems this has been a brand new experience of its own.. all of which I do plan on sharing as well as the past funnies, madness and anything else I feel like tossing up here...
Here's to new life experiences and lessons. The joys that follow!!

WATCH OUT!!!!
I saw the funniest thing today.. It was a souped-up Ford Excursion.. The door was about 3 ft from the ground and ...(here's the kicker) there was a Handicapped license plate on the back...I wish I had taken a pic.. It was great...

Wake Up....
"You shouldn't be telling our problems to your friends"! I guess I just don't grasp this statement. About 8 years ago, hubby tried something along that line and I immediately told him he will never tell me who I can and cant talk to about what I want to talk to them about. And so, the subject has never come up again.. I was recently told this morning while speaking with a very good friend, that she should not be talking to me about whats going on.. Now, here is my problem.. The guy is new in her life where-as I have been there for about 6 years. She happens to be going through allot in her life right now and it happens to be rolling over into her relationship. So, who should she talk to about what she is going through? Nobody?? I understand that somethings are not everybodys business, and I understand that guys generally don't talk to other guys like we talk to other girls, but come on. How many times in 1 week do I need to hear this statement from multiple people.
This is probably why women tend to be more "well rounded" then men. Its strange how many instances in which that statement occurs.. And how relationships tend to fight over it. Thankfully my hubby sucked it up and has dealt with it for 8 years..And that probably why my relationship with my friends is never strained. They don't have to hide from the hubby and hubby doesn't care if I need to venting partner..lol Love ya babe

Starbucks...-NO MORE
Hubby has been on me for years to be a better saver/spender... I've never complied well with this before. But now the reality of saving is setting in. There are allot of things that we(or should I say I I I..) want to be able to do/have, and at the rate I am going/spending, this is not going to happen. So, as of today, I am going to be making more conscientious decisions on what I spend money on..
That means, no more Starbucks, no more eating out everyday, no more shopping for things that I don't need(well, want is the more appropriate word)!
Hubby is now getting what he wants!!hahaha WIFE TO SAVE $$$$..

Wonderfull...
It was about mid-afternoon when I received the phone call from my 4 yr olds pediatrician calling to inform me of my sons blood work results. Oh, let me back up. Jorden, my son, has had issues poop training ass well as allergy issues. Doc put him on some allergy meds that would help with the constant sneezing, running/stuffy nose. She also put him on some heavy duty over the counter stool softeners to help him poop.. As far as everything else goes, life went on as normal.(back to blood results)
He is allergic to milk, egg whites, and shrimp.. Ok, so no shrimp, that's fine, he doesn't like them anyways.. But milk and egg whites!!!:( Im a HUGE Paula Dean Fan.. ) BUTTER BUTTER BUTTER ) Im screwed.. I start doing some research to find out that just about everything I buy or make, has milk and eggs in the ingredients... The egg whites can also cause histamine reactions in people( which explains the allergy issues) and the milk protein can cause constipation getting more sever with prolonged use ( this now explains the poop issue) So, on my day off today, I hit the supermarket.. I half gallon of Almond milk $3.99, 1 small tub of Earth Balance butter $3.49... Did you know that there is milk proteins in half the things that most of us eat on a daily bases... So, now my son is being put on a vegan dairy/egg diet...
Thank goodness I have met a vegan of I would have NO IDEA what to give my son in place off all the yummy things he can no longer have.. Next week, Im hitting this store in Tampa (Whole Foods) which should provide me with more options on dairy for him...

Click to Empower
I got this from my moms blog. Thought I would put it on mine as well for those who visit here.
Most times domestic violence victims remain with their abusers due to financial constraints. They have children who they believe, (falsely in most cases) that they are not able to support or take care of. They do not have access to the household finances. Their paychecks are turned over to the abuser, they are given a small allowance with which they must manage the household. They are not allowed to pursue their education.There are a programs and funding sources out their that support domestic violence centers to assist these victims to escape their abuser, to move on with their lives. Sources that allow centers to counsel survivors, educate them about the dynamics of domestic violence. But that is where our assistance stops. Most times we do not have the funds to actually provide them finances for specific things.
The Allstate Foundation is trying to change that. They have established the Education and Job Training Assistance Fund. It was established by The Allstate Foundation Domestic Violence Program to channel small grants to adult domestic violence survivors to help them achieve their educational and professional goals. This fund enables domestic violence survivors to pursue long-term financial security by providing much needed assistance to address barriers often not covered within traditional financial aid resources.
It covers education, training and job-related expenses including:
Books and supplies for school
Job skills trainingCertification fees
TuitionRegistration fees
Requirements for jobs, such as uniforms
Child carePublic transportation
Fees for computer access
How can you help fund this program? See that button on my sidebar? The one that says "Click to Empower?" For every click The Allstate Foundation receives $1 will be donated to the Education and Job Training Assistance Fund, up to $300,000. This money will then be used by the Foundation to help survivors of domestic violence improve their lives and the lives of their children.
Do me a favor, click on it today. Now.....I'll wait.....
Thanks, now if you go to their site, you can read some Survivor stories. You can also pick up the code to install the button on your site. Just one small thing you can do to help domestic violence survivors.

OMG! Husbands SUCK sometimes!!
So, I did our taxes on H & R Block the other day. Was really excited because this would be the first and only year that we would ever get a significant amount of money back. We would also be able to write off the addoption expenses for our son. Well, I get this notice in my e-mail today that the information on our son did not match up with what the IRS has. That I needed to call either them or Social Security. So, I tried to call them, 3 different times, stupid automated thingy kept giving me the run around. So I call SSA. To find out that I have yet to change my sons name with the SS office. Well, nobody told me that I had to do that. How was I supposed to know. The lawyer we used did everything concering his birth certificate, I gues I just assumed that she had taken care of everything that needed to be done. She never told us that we would need to change the name with SS. BUT, that is not the problem, the problem is, when my husband found out that I didn't have a SS card for our son, he freeked out and started this big huge argument. And I said to him"Whats he gonna do with it, try to get a job!" I have his SS number, the name just has yet to be changed. Nothing that can't be resolved with a trip to the SS office. He just went on and on. Couldn't beleive we were arguing over that. Was amazed. So I aksed him, that if having a SS card for our son was such a big deal, why didn't he get it taken care of or ask about it sooner. Ofcourse, his dumb ass had no reply to that. "Well, I just assumed you had done it." So, yes I replyed, (and you know what I said) YOu know what they say about people who assume!! Jack ass. As you can tell, im still pissed at him over that.

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you all. Hope you Christmas Day was great. Mine was. My in laws came up and my parents came up Christmas day. It was a very busy day. I do now know why my mother stress's out so much when she in in charge of hosting Christmas dinner for my ENTIRE family. I only had to worry about 7 people and I was moments away from pulling my hair out. It it wasn't for the alcohol that was provided, I'm not sure how the day would have ended! lol I had this timeline I was trying th follow. It didn't work. And of course my turkey was not done when I wanted it to be done. But it did turn out perfect. I was so happy. I took so many pics of my first turkey..
So Pretty!! My nephew was up Christmas day as well. Both boys were spoiled rotten by grandparents a Santa Clause. Santa Clause actually stopped by the house to give each of the boys a special present and a HUG. They were so pleased...

It was a great day. Thank goodness it is over though!!!

There is so much saddness in the world...
I received this bulletin on my Myspace, and the min. I started reading it, I starting sobbing. What that poor mother had to go through, I just couldn't imagine. I hope the bastard rotts in jail for the rest of his life.
i dont get how someone could hurt such a young and harmless baby.
These were made for you to use as support to the mother!!
December 4th, 2007, Jessica Sherwood had to do something no mother should ever have to do.
At 2:29 pm Jessica made a very tough, but the right decision to take her little 3 month old daughter off life support.
In memory of little London Marie, i thought id start a little forward..
Jessica had a message that i want every one to know..
This is what jessica said:
IF NE ONE HAS KIDS MAKE SURE U KEEP THEM WIT U THE WHOLE TIME DNT GIVE THEM TO NE ONE THAT U DNT TRUST..... TRUST ME I THOUGHT I TRUSTED JOSH..... BUT NOW AS OF 12-4-07 AT 2:29AM SHE IS GONE.... MY ONE AND ONLY BABY....... AND HE IS GUNNA PAY FOR EVER EVEN IF HE GETS OUTTA JAIL SCOTT FREE HE WILL BE DEAD NO MATTER WAT......... TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND THAT KNO LONDON I AM VERY ANGRY AND UPSET I LOST THE LOVE OF MY LIFE MY BABY GIRL.... SHE DIED ON HER 3MONTH BDAY........

THATS WAT U CALL SHAKEN BABY SYNDROM REMEMBER THAT...
For those of you who dont know what Shaken Baby Syndrome is..read this
Shaking, jerking and jolting can cause blood vessels in the head to tear or burst.
Shaken Baby Syndrome is the shaking of an infant or child by the arms, legs, or shoulders with or without impact of the head. This trauma can result in bleeding and brain injury with no outward signs of abuse.
Often frustrated caregivers feel that shaking a baby or small child is a harmless way to make the child stop crying. However, a baby's brain and blood vessels are vulnerable to whiplash motions, such as shaking, jerking, jolting, and impact. The neck muscles of an infant or small child are weak, so the child's head is relatively heavy and the neck cannot support the stress of shaking or impact.
Shaking a very young child, with or without impact of the head, can cause irreversible brain damage, blindness, cerebral palsy, hearing loss, spinal cord injury, seizures, learning disabilities, and even death. It is tragic that healthy, intelligent babies are suffering these disabilities simply because their caregivers don't know about the dangers associated with Shaken Baby Syndrome.
An estimated 1,200 to 1,400 cases of Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) occur each year in the United States. Only 1 out of 4 babies dies of Shaken Baby Syndrome. HOWEVER, the other three babies will need ongoing medical attention for the rest of their short lifespans

YES>>>
Its over. I have just finished my LAST assighniment and my LAST 3 test for my online psych class. Tomorrow is last day for that class and I am stoked...Friday is my last day for my social problems class, which, I have to take a test on 4 chapters. BUT, its over until after the new year....yah yah yah....
Then is on to 4 new class's for next semest. I am taking mostly online classes due to my lack of a babysitter. So im taking Human Biology, Intro to Sociolgy, English comp, and some stupic math class that I absolutly do NOT want to take. But apparently, you have to take all these stupid math classes even if you will never use them...I know the basics and that will get me through my life just fine. I don't need algebra. Which I took in high school early on. but apparently, if you don't use algerbra in everyday life, you tend to forget it, which means when you take your college placement test, you then have to go back and repeat because you didn't score high enough and you cant even get into college level math. Did I mention I hate math.....

who would'a thunk...
| Your Christmas is Most Like: A Very Brady Christmas |
 For you, it's all about sharing times with family. Even if you all get a bit cheesy at times. |
Truth Hurts!!
I found this bulletin posted on my MySpace and had to post here for all of you to read. Its great...Here goes..
Men Are Just Happier People-- What do you expect from such simple creatures? Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be President. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $500 0. Tux rental-$100. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet.

People need to grow up!
So, I received this a bulletin on my MySpace page about this article in the New York Times Concerning Sesame Street. Now, I don't know how many of you watched Sesame Street as a child, but my mother was a big fan and now that I am a mom, i am as well. So, this article basically stated that Sesame Street is not appropriate for our children any more. Bull shit. It is just as appropriate as Spongebob, Fairly Odd Parents or any of the other cartoons on TV now.
Here is the article. Tell me what you think..
Sunny days! The earliest episodes of “Sesame Street” are available on digital video! Break out some Keebler products, fire up the DVD player and prepare for the exquisite pleasure-pain of top-shelf nostalgia.
Just don’t bring the children. According to an earnest warning on Volumes 1 and 2, “Sesame Street: Old School” is adults-only: “These early ‘Sesame Street’ episodes are intended for grown-ups, and may not suit the needs of today’s preschool child.”
Say what? At a recent all-ages home screening, a hush fell over the room. “What did they do to us?” asked one Gen-X mother of two, finally. The show rolled, and the sweet trauma came flooding back. What they did to us was hard-core. Man, was that scene rough. The masonry on the dingy brownstone at 123 Sesame Street, where the closeted Ernie and Bert shared a dismal basement apartment, was deteriorating. Cookie Monster was on a fast track to diabetes. Oscar’s depression was untreated. Prozacky Elmo didn’t exist.
Nothing in the children’s entertainment of today, candy-colored animation hopped up on computer tricks, can prepare young or old for this frightening glimpse of simpler times. Back then — as on the very first episode, which aired on PBS Nov. 10, 1969 — a pretty, lonely girl like Sally might find herself befriended by an older male stranger who held her hand and took her home. Granted, Gordon just wanted Sally to meet his wife and have some milk and cookies, but . . . well, he could have wanted anything. As it was, he fed her milk and cookies. The milk looks dangerously whole.
Live-action cows also charge the 1969 screen — cows eating common grass, not grain improved with hormones. Cows are milked by plain old farmers, who use their unsanitary hands and fill one bucket at a time. Elsewhere, two brothers risk concussion while whaling on each other with allergenic feather pillows. Overweight layabouts, lacking touch-screen iPods and headphones, jockey for airtime with their deafening transistor radios. And one of those radios plays a late-’60s news report — something about a “senior American official” and “two billion in credit over the next five years” — that conjures a bleak economic climate, with war debt and stagflation in the offing.
The old “Sesame Street” is not for the faint of heart, and certainly not for softies born since 1998, when the chipper “Elmo’s World” started. Anyone who considers bull markets normal, extracurricular activities sacrosanct and New York a tidy, governable place — well, the original “Sesame Street” might hurt your feelings.
I asked Carol-Lynn Parente, the executive producer of “Sesame Street,” how exactly the first episodes were unsuitable for toddlers in 2007. She told me about Alistair Cookie and the parody “Monsterpiece Theater.” Alistair Cookie, played by Cookie Monster, used to appear with a pipe, which he later gobbled. According to Parente, “That modeled the wrong behavior” — smoking, eating pipes — “so we reshot those scenes without the pipe, and then we dropped the parody altogether.”
Which brought Parente to a feature of “Sesame Street” that had not been reconstructed: the chronically mood-disordered Oscar the Grouch. On the first episode, Oscar seems irredeemably miserable — hypersensitive, sarcastic, misanthropic. (Bert, too, is described as grouchy; none of the characters, in fact, is especially sunshiney except maybe Ernie, who also seems slow.) “We might not be able to create a character like Oscar now,” she said.
Snuffleupagus is visible only to Big Bird; since 1985, all the characters can see him, as Big Bird’s old protestations that he was not hallucinating came to seem a little creepy, not to mention somewhat strained. As for Cookie Monster, he can be seen in the old-school episodes in his former inglorious incarnation: a blue, googly-eyed cookievore with a signature gobble (“om nom nom nom”). Originally designed by Jim Henson for use in commercials for General Foods International and Frito-Lay, Cookie Monster was never a righteous figure. His controversial conversion to a more diverse diet wouldn’t come until 2005, and in the early seasons he comes across a Child’s First Addict.
The biggest surprise of the early episodes is the rural — agrarian, even — sequences. Episode 1 spends a stoned time warp in the company of backlighted cows, while they mill around and chew cud. This pastoral scene rolls to an industrial voiceover explaining dairy farms, and the sleepy chords of Joe Raposo’s aimless masterpiece, “Hey Cow, I See You Now.” Chewing the grass so green/Making the milk/Waiting for milking time/Waiting for giving time/Mmmmm.
Oh, what’s that? Right, the trance of early “Sesame Street” and its country-time sequences. In spite of the show’s devotion to its “target child,” the “4-year-old inner-city black youngster” (as The New York Times explained in 1979), the first episodes join kids cavorting in amber waves of grain — black children, mostly, who must be pressed into service as the face of America’s farms uniquely on “Sesame Street.”
I call BULL SHIT!!!

Classic..Shit..Happy
Well, I just realized today that because of my lack of baby-sitters around, that I am going to have to retake aone of my classes. Im not to happy about that, but, I'll just retake next semester to get it out of the way, and I will take the online course that way I wont have to worry about a sitter.
Nest note, I spent the better half the of day sitting at my computer trying to locate a few classic movies that I watched at one time or another with my mom. The first one I thought was titles "Baby Face". And all I could remember about it was that somebody cried into a jar and somebody else drank the jar of tears. After countless searches through Google, I came across the title " Cry Baby". Ah hah. Found it. With Johnnie Depp, then realizing that it was not a classic movie at all. Did I mention that I used to watch the movie years ago with my mom? Years ago.... 2nd movie, I still have not been able to find, and have been looking for this movie for a long time, but the only thing I remember is some lady selling something out of a backet, resting by a train track and loosing her legs or dying. I think is a black and white, so I tried to search black and white classic movies, didn't find anything similar to what I was looking for. Don't think Im ever going to find it unless I start watching AMC or TCM. Who knows....
So, my brother in-law came down for the Thanksgiving holiday. Excited to see him. My parents are going to Washington state for my Grandparents 5oth wedding anniversary, so they will be there over Thanksgiving. I am heading down to Orlando to be with the in-laws and making sure that I make plenty of the traditional Thanksgiving eats. My husbands family is Spanish, so for the most part they have Spanish food, and INSTANT mashed potatoes and stuffing in a BOX. So I plan on making these items from scratch this year. Yah for me!!!

Update on the Pickle!!
So, I decided to do some searching on the pickle ornament tradition. Mom said she received the ornament as a gift. Well, after doing some searching, I actually found that their are a whole shit load of people with this same tradition. Ya, who would've thought. A whole country for that matter. Germany. Yes, it is a German tradition. Heres the only story I could find on it....
The German Christmas Ornament pickle Story.
The pickle German glass ornaments are considered special Christmas in Germany decoration by many families where the Christmas tree was decorated on Christmas eve.
The pickle glass Christmas ornament was always the last glass ornament to be hung on the Christmas tree, with the parents hiding the pickle glass ornament in the Christmas tree among the other German glass ornaments. When the children were allowed to view the Christmas tree they would begin gleefully searching for the German glass ornament pickle. The children knew that whoever found the pickle glass ornament first would receive an extra little gift and would be the one to begin the unwrappingof the Christmas gifts.
Then, I found more material on the pickle.\
But the biggest problem with the German pickle (saure Gurke, Weihnachtsgurke) tradition is that no one in Germany seems to have ever heard of it. Over the years this question has repeatedly come up on the AATG (German Teachers) forum. Teachers of German in the U.S. and in Europe have never been able to find a native German who has even heard of the pickle legend, much less carried out this Christmas custom. It may have been some German-American invention by someone who wanted to sell more glass ornaments for Christmas. Or could the Weihnachtsgurke be an obscure regional custom that few people are aware of?
And more./
Then Rita heard from someone who claimed to have an answer that might solve the mystery. A descendent of a soldier who fought in the American Civil War, John Lower (Hans Lauer?), born in Bavaria in 1842, wrote to tell about a family story that had to do with a Christmas pickle. According to family lore, “John Lower was captured and sent to prison in Andersonville, Georgia. ...In poor health and starving, he begged a guard for just one pickle before he died. The guard took pity on him and found a pickle for John Lower. According to family legend, John said that the pickle—by the grace of God—gave him the mental and physical strength to live on. Once he was reunited with his family he began a tradition of hiding a pickle on the Christmas tree. The first person who found the pickle on Christmas morning would be blessed with a year of good fortune.”
A Web search in German and English turned up only the fact that the pickle ornaments are indeed sold in parts of Germany, ranging from Höxter in North Rhine-Westphalia to Kissing in Bavaria. All of the German articles on the topic debunk the legend (some even refer to the myth article you are reading right now, first written and published in 2003). My efforts to get confirmation of the actual pickle custom from someone in Höxter have so far been fruitless. (Have the people there really kept this custom a secret for all these years?) We still lack any proof that this is truly a German custom, or that the custom is not a fairly recent invention. Has the popularity of the supposedly German legend in America brought it to Germany, or was it really the other way around? It's still a mystery.
All I can say for certain is that to this day almost no one in Germany has ever heard of the German Christmas pickle custom. So far I have found no historical or other evidence to indicate that the Weihnachtsgurke is a genuine Christmas custom from Germany. If anyone has proof otherwise or can tell me how this legend really got started, please let me know.
so I ask, then what the hell is up with a pickle?! I guess we Americans like legends behind everything, or else the makers of the glass pickle decided that the best marketing strategy would be to attach this legend and sell the pickle overseas to us Americans...

Today!
You know, I absolutely hate it when people make things sound like a 911 emergency, just to find out that its not really that big of a deal at all.
I get this message on my Myspace from my brothers ex who is pregnant with my new little nephew, (who, by the way, is named Nathen Alexander) that I need to call her right away. I get 3 of these messages, and once again, all they say is "you need to call me right now". So I start freaking out. Whats wrong, I hope everything is ok. (she also lives next door to my sister in-law and my other nephew Dominic Mikel). So, Im sitting here thinking that something is wrong with one of my nephew, and of course, I call, and I get a voicemail, no answer. So I then send a message asking if everybody is ok and what is going on, just to get a response that everybody is fine, my sister in-law just wanted to speak with me but is now at work. huh. What is wrong with peope.
On another note, I have this cute adorable doggie, a Shit Zu, named Gizmo. And his water and food dishes are this rod iron and stoneware set that I got from At Home America, which is discontinued. So today, as I am putting around the house, my son reaches onto the counter top( that's where we keep Gizmo's food dishes because child plays with them) and grabs his water bowl, which is stoneware, and drops it to the floor. Shatters everywhere. So now, my poor Gizmo does not have a matching dish set, and I have no idea where Iam going to find another bowl to fit in his stand.
