    Snow, Snow, Go Away

    Wow I cant believe it's been so long since I've wrote in this blog! I guess Myspace has kept me away...lol Well for all of you who dont know, I live in Chicago and we just got some more snow! UGH! this is starting to really get crazy! we havent had this much snow in so long...and we are supposed to get more on Thursday... OK enough is enough...I was thinking...more like wishing....lol that we will get an EARLY spring since we have been dumped on so wrongly this year...Does anyone have any clout up there with Mother Nature??? I cant stand it any longer...please STOP the INSANITY....lol... I am so in the mood for some warm weather that when our heat kicks on...(and it does so frequently) I run to the nearest heater vent and just take a nice deep breath and close my eyes thinking of those nice summer days of yesteryear...I've even started dong some spring cleaning EARLY in hopes that it might trigger some warm weather to blow this way....Hey I'm DESPARATE! atleast when Spring finally doea make its way over this way I wont be tied down with the lovely "Spring Cleaning" chores that so many find themselves doing once the warm air hits... Any one have any suggestions???

    My interesting summer with my sister

    Well my sister came to Chicago after the 4th to stay with me for a month (my idea) she is 13 and I thought maybe I could bond with her,,, or something...being that there is such a large gap between us and for that fact that we live 700 something miles apart..my hopes seem to be reaching high but I still want to try....she has slowly and I mean
    S L O W L Y....opened up a bit and started talking to me about stuff and most of it I feel is more or less exagerations...but that is just my feelings...the things she has told me has really sent me for a LOOP!! she has told me that she has lost her virginity  the day before she came here and OMG! I almost threw UP thinking about the possibility of her being pregnant....OMG even typing it is making me wanna get sick...imagining such a young person having a baby is a sad and terrible thing...and it made me cry to know that her father is so lackadaisical with her..she told me that she has skating from 7pm to 7am I DONT BELIEVE THAT FOR ONE FUCKING MINUTE!!! and I will be checking with her father to see what she tells him too! he is gonna be getting a wake up call after this summer! you better believe it!! to be continued......

    March 25 2006 I have found something out

    I am blogging this information as a record of what is going on in my life lately.
    for the protection of me and the people involved, Their names are changed.
     
    "J's" boyfriend called me 3 weeks ago and told me that there was some information that I wasnt informed of and that I should be concerned  she was very sick and possibly dying she was not telling anyone about her sickness so as not to give people a chance to pity her. this information has really made me sick inside and I didnt know what to do because she has about 1 year  to 16 months to live and I am not supposed to know... how am I supposed to live with that kind of information and not tell her I know about it and offer my help...this has been a huge burden in my life for the past 3 weeks.
     
    the past few weeks we have been keeping in touch with each other to inform each other of any new occurances with her or her child "L" 3 weeks ago she informed me that she was pregnant with her new boyfriends baby and that she was intending on raising the child on her own. she told me that her boyfriend reacted happily at first and then changed his mind and wanted her to abort the baby so that he could be free. well since then I have talked to him and he has informed me that he was happy until he found out that she is terminally ill and having the baby could kill her or even deliver a still born so he asked her to abort for the sake of her life.

    Whatcha been doin??

    Oh my heck! Dont laugh! I can't believe I haven't updated my Blog since December!! well there has been alot going on here in our house we have been a busy bunch! lol
    In February Nathan turned 1 and we had alot of fun at Chucky Cheese it was Nathans first time! Bobby played in the tubes the whole time I think we seen him like twice that whole time we were there...lol We won like 110 tickets for him...lol
    Dino and Bobby have been working diligently on the Pine Derby race car that he had to race this weekend. I am really glad that Dino was so involved I think that it was a great experience for the both of them! Bobby didnt win but he showed good sportsmanship by going and shaking the winners hands! it was a very touching moment as a mother, to see his broken little heart go and offer his hand to the winners to congratulate them!
    Dino and I were so heartbroken for him that Dino ended up polishing up one of his old trophy's for good sportsmanship and gave it to him...the way his little eyes lit up was priceless!

    Christmas

    It was a special Christmas this year It was Nathans first Christmas. I love to watch the kids eyes light up when they open a gift! Bobby was SOO excited when he opened up the ambulance that he has been asking for, for such a long time! and when he opened the doctor play kit from his aunt Elf  he was sooo excited he REALLY likes to pretend to be a doctor and help people...(so cute) Then Nathan opened his car/walker it started talking and flashing and he lite up like a star! That is what Christmas is about...That look the kids get when they open that special gift! there is nothing like it! Dino bought me a A Food Processor and a Leather coat with faux fur inside its so nice I cant wait to wear it! and oh my gosh I am dying to use my food processor! LOL  I bought Dino a CD boombox and some basketball clothes he wanted  it was a nice christmas, it was the first christmas in years since I wasnt so sad that I missed my Mom its now been 3 years since her passing and I am finally just starting to feel better about it... I still miss her like crazy and yes I still cry about her but I felt different this year... its hard to explain it...This Christmas we opened gifts on Christmas Eve because we had church on Christmas Day,so on our way out to Uncle Dans on the Eve I told Dino to take Bobby out to the car and I will bring all the gifts out and put them under the tree especially since Dino hurt his back playing basketball Saturday morning and he was walking around like a cripled person I didnt think he would even be able to carry the giftsthat he wrapped upstairs down...so I brang all those gifts up from the basement and brought his gifts down from the closet and MAN I was sweating when I was done! LOL I told bobby that I think Santa will come early this year since he knows we have to go to church... Maybe he will come while we are not here...lol man the stories we come up with...so when we got home all the gifts were under the tree and Bobby looked in the back door and seen all the gifts under the tree and he was like MOM I THINK SANTA CAME WHILE WE WERE GONE!!! I wanted to just hugg him...lol I was like OH MY GOSH I THINK YOUR RIGHT!!! lol it was really precious! The only thing that went wrong...I had ordered some of the gifts I wanted to get Bobby online and they didnt come in time for Christmas, oh well... We just got them today...so now he has them... Anyway it was all good!

    MOndays Tragic event

    This started out as a good day until I rolled out of bed...lol first I was late getting bobby to school today and then I drove over to Sears only to find out it opens at 10, it was 9:15...what was I going to do for 45 minutes??? so I drove around...wasting expensive gas...lol well then I buy the paint to finish Nathans room and I head home...I fed the little man then put him down for a nap and ventured off to paint the room and MAN I hate painting ceilings! there has got to be a better way! but now its done...Anyway... I must have painted for about almost 2 hours hour and 1/2 when I thought man I better check the time... it was 2:45 now Im late picking him up! DANG! I go rushing to get him and I get home and clean up a bit and get ready to drive to get Lena from school (shes my friends little girl) and I go to put the kids in the car and the whole back windshield is busted out and there is glass all over the backseat!!! I was in shock and still am it was broad DAYLIGHT! why would someone want to bust up my window???  I wasnt missing anything and I didnt find anything that might have gone thorugh like a rock or something,,, so I had to call Jessica my friend and tell her that I couldnt drive to get Lena cuz of my car and then Dino came home about 15-20 min later and he thought that maybe someone took a bat to it ....I dont understand...WHY??? weird I wonder if that it might be a warning of some kind.... who the heck knows.

    Thursday, Thursday

    Today was a half day for Bobby and I was pretty happy that I can get him early he likes when he can come home early and play with his toys...
    Then later this evening he told me that the same boy that was calling him names before has called him another name and I have to say being a parent is hard...because it is taking everything for me to stop myself from taking this kid by the neck and choke him! My sweet Bobby, it really aggravates me that some children are brought up in a home with parents who teach their children that name calling isnt a big deal.... Well guess what? ITS PARENTS LIKE THAT, WHOS CHILDREN GO TO SCHOOL AND GET SHOT BECAUSE THOSE POOR KIDS THEY PICKED ON FOR YEARS DONT HAVE ANY SELF ESTEEM ANYMORE BECAUSE THE IGNORANT KIDS PICKED ON THEM! its a cruel world out there and it makes me want to home school my children just for the fact that I bring my children up with good values and just to send them off to school to be influenced by some rude, disrespectful, children...so far I've managed to still teach my son that no matter what other kids say or do to him that he still never says, or does what they do and I think I have done a darn good job!

    Oh great, what a night

    I have been so busy today cleaning all the bedrooms and when I picked Bobby up from school  he didnt look like his normal chipper self... Well now I know why... he told me he doesnt feel good...I hope he isnt coming down with anything...Then Tiffany told me that she isnt speaking to me anymore...and I thought maybe she was just kidding or something...but when I talked to her today...she told me I was acting shady that last time we talked... I am really hurt that she would even think of not talking to me anymore...She is like a daughter to me and I love her like my own... when I tried to talk to her she told me she was getting ready to out to a party and that she didnt want to talk about it....like I wasnt worth her time....My feelings are really hurt...

    TGIF!

    Good Morning! Well I had a good nights rest and I am ready to start my day! I just got back from taking Bobby to school and walking the dog... Today is Picture Day! how exciting... I think he is gonna look so cute this year and dont worry Elf I have a picture reserved just for you!
