Hey everyone,

What is goins on with ma peeps? I’ve got quite a bit to update about, and things would go hella smoother if I wasn’t at work:P LOL Who really needs oxygen on a Tuesday morning. WTF? 🙂 I guess I’ll just dive right on in:

Today is my mom’s 51st birthday, I got paid yesterday and took her out for dinner. We went to Los Amigos and had a fajita frenzy. Goodness, both my mom and I can put away some mexican food. I got her the prettiest card with the sweetest birthday message in it, and she told me not to get her anything so I put a twenty in the card. She is FO EVA hard to buy for, and I knew if she had the money she would pick out something she liked. I also got her a mini birthday cake and had the bakery person put a message on it. We had a really good time. My mom is the most amazing person ever. I’m really worried my sister won’t call her, she forgot to last year and really hurt my moms feelings. They got in to a huge fight, and they quit talking for a good 6 months. My mom had completely washed her hands until they got to talking over my nephew. There is a big long story involved, the Reader’s Digest is my sister is a self centered bitch and doesn’t think my mom can ever live up to the mistakes she made during my sister’s childhood. My sister is 31 years old, the same age as my mom when she had me…grown the hell up already. You can’t hold a grudge against a family member your entire life…well you can but don’t expect to be a happy person. My sister is a bitter little troll…and it is starting to show physical. Her face generally has a shitty look on it, and I see those deep frown wrinkles in her face because NOTHING can be done to please her. I generally hide out at Michael’s house if I can. lol
As for my mom, she enjoyed herself also. She is having a lot of health problems right now and I’m worried that all this stress is really unhealthy for her. She went to the dr about her lungs and breathing and found out that she has COPD and the beginning of emphysemia…or the other way around. She’s smoked most of her life, and it is all starting to catch up to her. Dr. Williams told her that if she didn’t quit smoking she was going to have to go on o2, and even if she did she’d constantly be one step away. We joked around that she would be one of my patients calling up, bitching that she needing some o2 at midnight on a Saturday. All jokes aside I’m really scared. She also has degenerative bone disease in her back, along with arthritis. She is not in good health for 51:( I’m thinking hard core about going to school for respiratory therapy, , maybe it would help out my mom. She is considering if things get any worse to look in to disability. She hurts constantly. She said she broke down earlier in the week to her husband…my mom has always been the strong pillar that hold things together. Before her it was my grandmother, after she passed away my mom went a lil crazy but then she took up the part. I honestly don’t know what I’ll do if anything bad happened to her:( I know I’m not ready to be any kind of pillar for anything…much less my whole family. I know it sure as hell won’t be my sister.

On to less depressing topics. My week-end was pretty good. Saturday Patrick and I drank a bit. Michael stopped by to visit for a bit…and someone backed in to his car. He had just gotten it back from the shop from hitting deer…and some bitch didn’t cut the wheel as she was pulling out and hit the broad passenger side. WTF? HE WAS PARKED…it wasn’t like he was a moving target or he pulled out in front of her. He had been there the whole time. He was pretty pissed, but he handled it well. There was a whole bunch of drunken wanna be frat guys; one was pretty cool and helpful, one was just too drunk to function, and the other was being a dick. The girl that backed over him was cool about it also. She apologized, and gave him her insurance card and let him handle everything. After Michael left Patrick and I played out in rain. It came a flood and we were outside drinking a bit and smoking under a kinda small umberella. Good times, I called up one of my drinking buddies to see if he wanted to go natural slip n sliding. There is a tiny indention in the landscaping at my sisters…Patrick and I were looking at it like…"Whoa…good times waiting." But I didn’t wanna be the only two retards outside, and my drinking buddy had people over. Awh:(
Sunday we all went swimming at Steph’s. Well Patrick, my mom, and I. We laid out, played in the pool, and just had an overall good time. We really enjoyed ourselves…until my mom got out of the pool. I’m half mexican, but the other half is pale pasty white. LOL She got burnt THROUGH the water. Have you guys ever heard of that? We did really good on her shoulders and face. We put SPF 40 on every hour and she still got a lil pink, but her legs were starting to blister it was so bad. :S She said she had a good time, but our plans to go swimming next week-end weren’t going to include her. 🙁 Awh We had a good time together though, even though she was crispy. Michael came over and we all had a good family dinner together. My mom kind of had a small breakdown, I apologized to Michael because he didn’t really have a part in any of it, but got to partake in my mom getting crunk and a having a few tears. He is the best ever, he told me that he liked my mom and everyone needs to vent every now and then.

That leads me to my final paragraph, Michael. He is the most amazing guy I’ve ever met. He is so supportive of everything in my life. I love him so much:) Things between us have gotten a lot better, there are still moments when I doubt things, but I’m me…doubts included. He’s never voiced any sort of concern of us not being good for each, just that he worries to that we might be jumping in to everything too fast when I bring up my concerns of everything moving so suddenly. Last night he told me that he had never believed there was that one person that was made for you to be with…until me. He said he felt it in everything we did together, that it was just…right. I really hope he is that one person, he makes me feel like everything else is fine and that as long as were together we’re unstoppable. He’s just…perfect. Crazy, loving, caring, and undeniably adorable…he’s my cracka.

Well I guess that wraps up everything, I wanna shout out to all my peeps. Ya’ll are amazing:D
