On a Lighter Note...

This is a robot fish! Gross huh! I so don't want to eat this! Eww! I wonder if people eat this?

Ok-So I have good news.

It is just a reminder it's not what you know,it's who you know.

A guy that my hubby works with, his wife works at a pain clinics Dr. office.

She got me into her Dr. tomorrow!

The Dr. is at least a month out and she squeezed me in for tom.

Yea!!

My mom always told me; It's not what you know, but who you know.

I have gotten a few jobs off of that little tip. Discounts and lots of love.

Gotta love it when you know people.

This is one of those times that my hubby is happy that I talk.

I talk a lot!

A lot to people I know, I don't know, I want to know etc...

That is why I am so good at this whole blogging thing.

I love talking. I love it, I love it!]

The one major crappy thing about this whole sickness thing!

I don't want to craft.

I don't want to redo my bedroom.

I don't want to go thrifting.

I just want to lay on the couch and eat fish.

Eat fish?

Yes, I have been craving it for a good 3 days now!

No-not pregnant.

Just sick and hungry.

You know when you don't feel good and you lay on the couch?

That is what I have been doing since Friday-there is not a lot of instant fish tha my kids could bring me.

So-good news!

I get some.

Ohh, in about 4 mins!

Yea!

Don't hate me cause I like fish!

Thats mean.

I don't hate you cause you like gross things like coconut and mandarin oranges.

So-don't hate me cause I like fish!

48 HouRs oF HeLl!

Ok Ladies-
I have had a really rough past couple of days.
I am using my blog as a place to write and hopefully by the words I write they can be used as a coping mechanism.

I looked up the definition of MENTAL BREAKDOWN and this is what is said;
Mental breakdown (also known as nervous breakdown or snapping) is a non-medical term used to describe a sudden, acute attack of mental illness such as depression or anxiety.

All of this lovelyness was all triggered by a panic attack that was triggered by a really bad, painful day.
I don't know if any of you have ever had a panic attack, but oh my heck, I have never been so scared in my life. If my hubby wouldn't have been here, I am pretty sure that I would have passed out.
My pain has been off the charts lately! Holy Crap I don't know what the heck is wrong with me!
All I have done is cry, hyperventilate and pray!
I am really hoping that all of this happening to teach me something, to show me something, to allow to me see something in a different way.
Whatever the reason may be, I am hoping and praying that is over soon!
If you are all in the dark about my whole pain thing-go here and you will know what the sam heck I am talking about.

I am sure some of you are thinking-why are you blogging?
I am doing this for some normalcy.
My life has been so unnormal for the past 2 days, I need something to keep me from thinking that I am not losing my mind!

I am sure that there are people out there who deal with this all the time.
Oh, how my heart aches for you.
I am freaking out with all that is happening to me, and I can only imagine if it happened all the time!
I know that this is a really downer of a post-I don't usually do this-but I needed somewhere to go where no one would judge me, question me, call me a freak, but accept me and maybe, just maybe help me.
I love my blog, better yet, I love my friends that I have gained because of it. You are all so great and reassuring. I am blessed because of you. I know that there are many of you, that I have never seen and probably will never meet face to face, but I like to think that one day, I will meet you-even if it's in Heaven. Then I can tell you thanks and give you a hug!
Sorry to be so sappy-you know-just one of those days. I appreciate you all listening, or in this case, reading. You all get gold, no pink stars in my book!

Preface-this blog contains lots of grammatical errors. If you hate that-I will apologize now-but read it anyway!

OK I have decided that I am the most green person on the earth!

Why do you ask?

No-I don't use special solar panels on the roof to heat my house and cook my food!

I do something better!

Better you ask?

How can it possible be any better than that!

I am a recycler of other peoples things!

Yes, it's true!

I am that fabulous!

How do you do that you ask?

Well-if I must reveal my secrets.

I will-only for you, because you are the best blogging friends a girl can have!

I really mean it!

All of you-you sure know how to make a girl feel special!

OK-you really want to know?

Are you sitting down?

I buy other peoples crap.

I bring it home.

I spray paint it and give it a little love.

Then, I get this....

This was a dresser that I picked up for $10 at Goodwill. I do have 3 girls, therefore, I have 3 girls worth of clothes! So-we needed another dresser! Ugly huh? The box on top-a jewelry box I picked up for $2.oo. Don't worry, I have pics of that too!

So-a little bit of white spray paint, modge podge and cute paper and voila! I used a little ribbon too. I loved how it turned it out! What do you think? It was a lot faster than I thought it would be. I have never done modge podge on a large piece before. Way way easier than a little thing. So, now I have a new junk thing that I love.

OK-here is the jewelry box, a rack with pegs ($1.00)and a table. The table was actually a bar stool with the legs painted bright yellow!!

I was thrilled with how all of this turned out also!

The best part? I did this all in one day! It didn't even take me all day.

I even cleaned my whole house, made dinner and did 3 loads of laundry! I am so not bragging. I just figure that this day makes up for all the lazy, crappy, "I don't feel good days!"

OK-I have one more thing to show you! A festive, fourthy kind of thing. I made it out of tins. You know the kind that cookies and popcorn come in. Got these at goodwill also! Spent a total of $7 bucks on all of them! YEA!! I loved how they turned out! I am going to put them above my kitchen counters. The bucket is for my kitchen table. I am going to use it to hide a vase so I can show off my roses that I cut down last year to the ground. They came up huge and beautiful. Who knew that if you cut the crap out of roses-they do better! Huh?

I know that this is really long post. I had a lot to say and show. What can I say. I love it when other people post stuff like this. It gives my creativity a kick in the butt. So, I hope I do the same! Have a happy night!!! Go craft something! Don't forget the diet coke and chocolate. It helps, look what I did with it!! OK-enough talking I promise!!

OK-so the rest of the post.

We, as a family went here yesterday. Lagoon-a local amusement park.

It was free. Hubby had a work day= free tickets/

So we went. The kids had never been.

It was great fun! The kids loved it.

Mom and sister and brother in law came too.

So glad that they were there.

We hit all the rides for the kiddies.

Not really a ride girl-since they all have bars that go across your stomach-tight. These hurt me, not to mention the whole jerking motion thing.

We were waiting in the last line of the night. The girls wanted to ride the boats.

So, they waited and they 3 started yelling.

I ran over and she said,

Mom-that kid spit on me!

what?

That boy spit on me!

I turned to the little boy and asked if he spit on her.

He said yes.

I continued to say to this stupid little 6 year old who spit on my kid that if we don't spit. It is mean and I don't like it.

I then asked him if he wanted me to spit on him.

He shook his head and said No!

I yelled-DON'T SPIT ON MY LITTLE GIRL AGAIN! UNDERSTAND?

He shook his head.

His mom walked over.

I said;

Your kid spit on my little girl.

She just looked at me.

She didn't speak English.

Of course not.

Hell-why should you have to speak English if you live in the United States of America. Our main language is English. Why should you have to learn how to speak it, you stupid lady!

I said to her:

You need to teach your son not to spit and learn to speak English!

She just looked at me and walked away!

I was so mad! The stupid lady didn't teach her kid not to spit and then she couldn't even understand me yelling at her! Damn!

Sorry for the swearing! I am still so ticked.

So-this is my new rule!

If you don't reprimand your children-I will!

Especially if your stupid child spits on my 3!

So any of you Mom out there-make sure that your kids don't spit on others-if they do-smack them and tell them not to do it EVER again or I will come and yell at them!! :)

(sorry for the rant, I guess if you can't rant on your own blog-where can you)

If I offended any of y0u-I'm sorry. I am kind of onery and having a bad day. You all just got to read about it! :) Hope you all still love me!! Really-you do, right?!
