and all is normal.. well sort of lol.. yet again i find myself giving an update, because i have failed to keep up with the daily postings.. although i will admit that i am posting more than i ever have before lol.. things here have sort of settled back to normal..

kia is still doing chemo and hating every minute of it.. he only has 3 weeks left, and he’s arguing with mom about doing it.. he went out last night with a few friends, they went hiking in the woods, i’m assuming to moonville tunnel.. but i didn’t pay attention to where he was going…anyway so mom wakes me up @ 530am asking me where chai’s benedryl is because he’s broke out head to toe with a rash.. apparentlly he got into some poison ivy/oak/sumac and his low immune system let it spread everywhere.. but now it’s gone… so who really knows.. he did tell me that one of his friends was hit in the head… by a bat… not a baseball bat.. a flying bat that must not fly very well because seriously why would a bat fly into a human head on purpose? so he’s being optimistic, doing things to keep busy.. he even played gus macker (a basketball event) and they did well…  they were one of the top teams during the first day, only loosing one game… and the second day they were ahead on the first game, then it down poured and they lost control of the ball and had trouble running on the wet roads to get to the basket… and the boys well in regular season basketball could put some 3 pointers down.. but they were having trouble getting them in the hoop for this competition..  i’ll post a few pics later i promise

chai is doing the parade things… we have one tomorrow.. she has a luncheon that begins @ 1030.. and lasts until 2pm.. then we have a 3 hour wait until the parade begins… it’s going to be extra fun because we’re going to have harlie and zozo for the day & night… (please note the sarcasim) so next weekend she has a parade/luncheon on saturday and then on sunday she has the county fair queens luncheon… but there is no parade… and then we have many many more most of the weekends through october.. school starts on the 23rd of august.. after the parade of the hills (aka paradee of the hillbillies) and yes i can make fun of it simply because it’s my own towns festival.. when i was younger it lasted a full week.. sunday thru saturday.. now it’s down to a 3 day festival… wednesday-saturday… which i guess is alright considering the pricing of everything… ride tickets/arm bands are outragious… i don’t know if she’ll be riding rides every night, but i’m hoping at least one night.. but we’ll have to wait and see once we see the prices this year.

mom is doing okay. although her car is broke.. the head broke, don’t know exactly what broke on it.. but it’s supposed to be fixed this weekend.. so she’s been driving kia’s car for the past month.. she’s still as crazy stressed as usual.. working, taking care of kia and dealing with psycho.. he doesn’t want her doing things with her friends.. he wants her to sit at home and listen to his endless ramblings and idiotic ideas.. i know sounds like i’m being mean, but seriously he’s a racial asshole and sexist and a homophobe… he thinks he’s gods gift to everyone and that he knows everything… so can you see why she’s stressed…

and on another note of psycho’s genious .. .the psych docs didn’t know what they were talking about.. they are just quacks.. and there is absolutly nothing wrong with him… he has his days.. one day it’s like he’s kissing my ass.. and the next i don’t do enough around the house.. like right now he came back to tell me when kia gets up that his blankets and sheets need washed… he wanted to tell me to go do the dishes.. but he bit his tongue.. it’s 11am.. i have time to do a small sinkful of dishes.. it won’t take me that long… he’s just an ass plain and simple… and he’s taking all those meds again.. he doesn’t have a pain doc still.. so when these run out he’s going to be going through withdrawls.. that’s going to be interesting, to say the least…

so where do that leave me.. well i’ve kind of been nominated to be the parent that organizes all the parade crap, sending in the applications/reservations for parades & luncheons.. i’m still working on school crap… and i do mean crap, i’m honestly just sick of it.. i think i’ve burned myself out… but i’m only taking one class a semester for now…so it shouldn’t be too bad… i can afford to pay for it myself this way..since i am out of financial aid… i need to get my room organized agian.. it’s a complete disaster…. that’s something i’ll have to do this weekend… it’s really getting on my nerves.. i just finished the whole twilight series.. and beleive me i wasn’t interested in the books at all … hated the movie… but kia’s girlfriend is a big fan and she challenged me to read the first 100 pages of twilight… and i was hooked by like page 64… took me less than a day to finish each book.. and she told me i read too fast lol… but i did end up liking the series.. i couldn’t put the books down.. i wish i could read my school stuff like that.. just read and not get tired.. get the book finished in a day… but text books are so monotone in my mind… i just can’t get through them.. so now i’m looking for something to read.. i have plenty of books around here that i havent read yet.. but i don’t know what i’m in the mood for lol…

so i’m getting back into a normal sleep routine…. instead of staying up till 4am and sleeping till 10.. i’ve actually been going to bed around midnight and getting up anywhere from  630-830.. depending on what time i actually get up out of bed lol.. this morning i would have been up and ready to go at 630 when my alarm went off, but i didn’t want to get out of bed.. it could have something to do with mom waking me up at 530… then calling me twice before my alarm went off after she got to work.. so i stayed in bed until like 9.. that’s when chai got out of bed.. which she would have probably slept in a bit longer if the dogs wouldn’t have started howling.. and i still don’t know what that was all about lol..

plans for today are to do the dishes of course.. find something crafty to do with chai..right now she’s drawing.. and then that is about it… get things ready for tomorrow.. have a lot to get packed for the festival stuff… have to make sure i have everything ready to go so we can just get up, get dressed and leave once harlie & zozo get here.. i need to remember to get batteries from kia for the camera… since they are in his room for his xbox controller…

anyway i’m gonna go, more later.. and pics too
