Oh What A Day (Yesterday that is)

Well I did a good one. I thought I had a blackhead on my face. Yes I am a masher, can't stand it. If I know I have one on me I just have to mash it. Well I went to the bathroom morrior and looked and it seemed to be one. NOT. I mash it and blood starts flowing out of the place. I have blood running down my cheek on my blouse and the floor and even my toe. LOL No it's not funny but now that you think of it you have to laugh or I do. So I have blood pouring and can't get it to stop and I have toilet paper in my hand applying pressure and it still isn't stopping. So I call mom. Mom what do I do? I can't get it to stop bleeding. So she tells me keep the pressure on it and lay on the couch flat. So I do that. I've went through toilet paper, 3 paper towels and laying on the couch with a fresh one. Jesse keeps bringing me a fresh one. So the next thing I know, knock, knock. It's mom and my step dad. So she looks at it and all and tells me you need to put ice on it. So Jesse gets some ice and a wash rag. I put that on there for a while. It starts to alow finally. I manage to get a little band aid on it and it flows over it. So I put another one on top of it. So now I really look freaky. I have a bloody shirt on and two band aids on my face. But it did stop bleeding . The only I can figure is instead of mashing a bump I cut a blood vein.

Then we go for a walk every evening. So I go do my thing to go. As I'm walking down the darn stairs I fall. Yep I fell down the porch steps. So my left leg goes up under and behind me at the same time, my right leg does something else and my hand is trying to catch the fall at the same time. Let me tell ya I had no idea my limba could even move into those positions anymore if they ever did. So I don't know what happened to make me fall. But I got up today and my feet are hurting, my anklles, my legs and my right hand. My middle finger is swollen and hurts like hell. So I guess I sprain it or bruised it badly.

Oh well days like this happen but it had been quite a while since it happened to me. LMAO

Fair

We went to the state fair on Monday with Michelle and Kaya. We went to the World Championship Horse Show and she loved it. It wasn't my cup of tes but the reason I went was for her.
It was my first time going to it. I have never wanted to go and didn't have the desire to go to it but it was kind of fun.

The rest of the week was spent at home just hanging out and homeschooling. Nothing glamorous. Oh we did go to Mom's for two days.

I got her health book and a new World History book. So we start those next week. Now I need to find her a good reading list.

I started getting more scrapping done, finally. I have been in such a funk lately and haven't really done any. I have kept up with my 365 and it has helped to scrap about thigs that have happened.

Well til next time
Be safe and be good

Tanner


Well we finally had to make the awful decision to have Tanner put down. He had two seizures Monday and another one Tuesday. They really did a number on him this time. He was acting different this time after having them and it lasted far longer than it had before. He wouldn't lay down, eat or sleep. He didn't use the bathroom for a day and a half. Do I called the vets office to take him in. I knew this time we would have to do it. We had thought of it before but never went through with it. I just couldn't don it, ya know. We got to the vet's and he looked at him and said he was healthy. Jesse told him about him being hit by the car last year and then he started having the seizures about 6 months later. He said that was probably what caused them and it was brain trauma. Well I kind of knew this. He talked to us about the seizures and meds. he said they may work or may not that he couls still have them. He also started talking about brain damage and that was why he probably didn't eat or go out. That the nerves in his brain had went haywire and he forgot how to. So he said it was more humane to have him put to sleep. (don't ya just love that damn term) So we decided to. Tanner seemed like he came around for just a few seconds and he looked at me with those big brown calf eyes he had as if to say It's ok mommy. Then he went back to the staring . So the vet gave him a sedative and when it started taking effect he had a small seizure and I held him in my arms and told him it was OK just go to sleep and the pain will stop. You won't suffer anymore puppy. He went to sleep after the sedative took effect. Then the vet gave him the shot. He layed in my arms til he went to sleep forever. He took three deep breaths and he was gone. Forever. I'll never see him again. God I miss him too.

A boring Saturday

Hey everyone. Good morning. It's early for me and usually I'm not up this time but around 10 or 11 am. I was up til 3 am and up at 6 am. Bob had to leave. Bobby and Benjamin stayed the night because Bobby was going to take Bob to Sellersburg, IN to pick his truck up. It had to be worked on. So early day.

Not much has been going on. I started walking a few months ago. I figured I needed to get off my fat ass and get to moving. So I have stopped so many Cokes and snacks. I did it for my diabetes so I could get a better grip on it. It still runs high but not as high as it was. Instead of being in the 2 and 3 hundreds now it's like 150 to 191. So that's good for me. Plus I have lost 33 pounds now. YAY me.

We started back to homeschooling this week. I can't believe it went as smooth as it did. She did great. No complaining, crying or a fit. She did everything even math. So good job to Jesse.

So I guess today I'll clean house since Bob is gone. Need to finish up the laundry. Joy joy. LMAO

Talk later

Monday

Nothing new going on. Just sitting at home chillin with my hubby and daughter. She has a friend staying this week.

We finally got out of school. She passed all of her end of year tests. She did good in all of them except for math so I'm making her do 'summer homeschool' for that to help her. Hopefully she'll get it.

Other than that not much else I suppose. Bob's birthday is on Thursday. He'll be 59 this year. So we didn't know if he'd be home or not next weekend so we fixed his cake this week.

See ya later

Well it's Over

Well the funeral is over and now everyone has gone their seperate ways and trying to deal with it all. For the ones that don't know my granny Opal died on the 19th. It was 3 days after her 77th birthday. They think it was a massive heart attack. I'll miss her cause I was visiting her in the nursing home and she wanted me to feed her. I never thought I'd ever be feeding my grandmother one day. But now I am so thankful I got to do a little something for her.

Talk to ya later

Busy, Busy, Busy

I can't believe it's been this long since I've wrote on the blog. A lot has happened. Jesse's play was wonderful. She and the other kids did a fantastic job on it. All of them had their lines down. They had a great time after the play just playing and running around.

tanner is still having seizures. He had two the other day and even quit breathing with the second one. I just know one day it's gonna kill him.

I had my birthday on the 10th. I turned 41 this year. Ah where does the time go?
I've been giving Jesse her end of the year test this week. So far she's done good on the ones she has taken. Next week she'll be finished and we'll be out of school til August.

Well that's it for now. Talk to ya later

Tanner

As a lot of you know we have a Sheltie named Tanner. He's a goofy dog but I love the piss out of him. He's a loving dog and loves Jesse. She bugs the hell out of him and he never bites her and loves to play with her. Bob gets him going too. He likes to grab his pants leg and tear holes in them. LOL
But he started having seizures a few months ago. I called the vet about it a few minutes ago and they recommend having him put to sleep./ That's tearing me up. I hatew to think of it but I know he's just suffering when he goes through one of them. They're getting woirse too. So now we have to make a decision.

Talk later guys.

Derby and Rain

Well this week has been all about the KY Derby coming up on Saturday. It'll be the 135th run for the roses. So of course Krogerr is busy making the garlands. I hope it doesn't rain. It has been some this week and it's in the forecast. Let's hope the weathermen are wrong. I don't go to it. I have lived here all my life and never been to a derby. I just don't have any desire to go up there among the madness.

Worry

Hey everyone. Well most of you know I homeschool Jesse. I've been homeschooling her since she was three. Of course 'officially' it's been about 4 years. Our school year will end June 12 and I'm already worried about next years curriculum. A wonderful Mom and Friend, Michelle, had us over and let me go through her stuff and she gave us a lot. As a matter of fact I have just about everything for next year. I guess a health curricula is the only thing I'm missing and I don't know if I have to teach it or not every year.
I drive myself crazy about this every damn year. Am I teaching her the right things, what should I buy and on and on it goes. So this year I'm not going to stress out about it as much as I usually do. That's what I'll keep telling myself anyway. LOL

She's doing good in all subjects except for math. So now I'm faced with this question, to advance her to 5th grade or keep her back? I'm totally arguing with myself on this one. Of course Bob says do what you think is best. Jesse is just tee totally pissed off about it. She was so mad at me when dshe heard me talking to her daddy about it. So solution still not found.

Oh well enough for today.
Take care
