Calgon Take Me Away

I'm having a hard time sleeping because i'm scared. I'm worried about one of my friends who is in premature labor right now and we just found out that Randy is on the list to be laid off by next Friday. I know we can get thru this but with the economy and jobs the way they are it isn't going to easy. What all can we do, my job is only part time (less than 20 hours) and it isn't secure at all. I'm trying to have faith but it seems so difficult at times. Well I don't want to bore you with all of our problems I just needed to get it out of my system. I'm beginning to think I will never relax again. :(


*Update: she lost her baby this morning*

Our Family Time Together

This past Friday we decided to have some family time together (partly because I needed to get outof the house) Randy decided to try roller skating which we haven't done in years. We got to the skating rink with 20 minutes to wait before they opened and teenager after teenager came in with no adults around but us. They were running around the parking lot throwing stuff at each other and barely missing cars. Now mind you I had a headache anyway and the more kids and teens that came in the worse I was getting. My nerves were shot and I walked out before we ever really got in. We left and came back to the house to get our bowling balls and decided to go bowling. Randy isn't crazy about bowling but I bowled on league growing up so I love it, but I don't like the commintment of a league anymore. This is the first time we bowled in 2 years and since I broke my wrist last year. All of us had fun and I just missed what my average used to be a couple of years ago. Here are some photo's we took.( Sorry they look blurry but I couldn't find the right setting for the bowling alley).


Our scores Gage 105; Faith 17; Me 131; Randy 131

Here's a video of us bowling. Should be pretty funny.

Finally some good news

I have two bits of good news. One Faith is doing better her swelling is gone and she gets a third tooth pulled tomorrow. (She doesn't want too but she has too.)

In this pic the arrow is pointing to the tooth to be pulled.

I also got a job at Olan Mills selling preselling protrait packages. My hours are worked so I don't need a babysitter. I got the dress I'm going to wear in my wedding vow renewal to Randy (The Way I See It)

The color of the dress is called pool. I just love it.

Dear Mom

imikimi - Customize Your World!

Dear Mom,

You died so soon 4 years ago today to be exact. We always had our problems but now that I understand your illness better I feel I understand you more now than I did then. I knew you had sever depression and and other physical problems I just wish you would have told me about the Borderline Personality Disorder. I believe I would have been able to work with you better at the time. Did you not tell me because you didn't think you did or because you didn't think I would understand? I do and I know deep down you know I get it now. I still say you were to young to die at 53 but you have a peace now you never did on Earth and I'm thankful for that.

I forgive you for the past between us on your part. You are truly missed and loved by the four of us. You missed my first wedding to Randy because of me and now you won't physically be here for our wedding renewals, that saddens me deeply but somehow I know you will be there in spirit.

I know how proud you would have been and worried all time for the kids. You would have spoiled them rotten. You would have been so proud yet scared of Gage playing football and how proud of his grades. I can't even imagine how spoiled Faith would be. We will make sure that Faith knows you. She would have loved you had she gotten to know you. I'm glad you got to meet her before you died.

God Speed!! Mom you are missed and I do love you and I hope you have the peace you always searched for.

Here's a song for you.
