GOOD MORNING MR SATURDAY!

Ok I did fall asleep at midnight – then Autumn woke me up at 12:45 wanting a bottle. LOL

After getting the bottle – I laid there for about an hour and did, eventually fall asleep. I woke up to the sound of Autumn talking and singing in her crib at 6:30 am. So I have officially started my day.

Called my mom and dad to see if they wanted to come over this morning and play with Autumn in the pool – then I will go to their house and hang out with them for the rest of the day until the BBQ where my mom works. FREE FOOD FOR ME!

Mom said she needed her cup of coffee and talk to dad before they make any decisions. I then called my sister to see if she and Danielle (yes I am using her real name) want to come over too. But Danielle is visiting a friend in Palm Coast. So I still invited my sis as Autumn and my sister have a very special bond. Sis said she will call me back in about an hour as she promised to go see a friends new boat.

We shall see how today pans out…

I remembered to all my meds today. WOOT! I think I need to get one of those pill cases with the time and date compartments. Maybe if I use that it will help me remember.

Speaking of pills – did I ever tell you guys about E a few months back tried to kill himself? He ODed on Darvocet. Since then his meds have been dolled out day by day and the rest are in a lock box he does not know the combo to. Since he is living with us – I am in charge of med dispensing. It is not hard nor is it burden. He has a week pill case that has 7 removable strips for each day of the week with compartments for Morning, noon, evening and bed and I fill the case up for the week and each night I give him his case for the following day. Since he has been with us – he has almost become the E we remember from years ago. He is now almost his old self again. HE still has moments of depression and anxiety, but I know he is NOT in the place he was a few months ago.

This weekend is going to be a real trial for him though with going back up to Ohio and into a very stressful situation. I have not told you what everything is that brought him to that dark, dark place. Suffice it to say – at he is separated from his wife – whom he still loves but I doubt they will remain together. He and Kal went up this weekend to bring more of his belongings down here. I pray for him daily. If you are a praying person, please keep him in your prayers.

Why is is that my daughter has TONS of toys but she chooses to play with the icky cat toys and my shoes???

I am already thinking of redecorating Autumn’s room. I think I want to do the BIG daisies and butterflies theme. But I will wait until she is in a twin bed. They just don’t make the cute bedding in toddler bed size. No she is not in a toddler bed yet – but her crib converts to one.

Speaking of beds – she is in her’s right now. She was super fussy so I asked her if she was ready for seepies and she put her head on my shoulder. LOL

She was so cute last night. We have an old phone that we do not use anymore since we got rid of the home phone – one of those vtech cordless phones. So I took the batteries and the battery cover off the back so she could not choke and we gave it to her. That was a few weeks ago. But last night she pushed some of the buttons then she put the phone to her hear and said “Haaaa” LOL We also gave her an old remote for a TV we no longer have. She now points it at the TV! LOL some times we change channels on the TV to make her think she is doing it.

Lets see…oh last night – when I signed off I asked what the cats were destroying – well – seems they opened a cabinet door and pulled out a Lipton Noodles and Sauce and chewed threw the package and ate the stuff inside. I have weird cats. Very, very weird cats.

I need to finish cleaning the bathroom. I got cleaned the floor and the commode (toilet to most people) clean. I bought that new Kabooom Toilet Bowl Cleaner. Not off the TV though. That guy that does those commercials is so freaking annoying. I got it at Winn Dixie. I have to say it is the BEST cleaner I have used so far. Now I need to clean the sink and tub (I have X14 Orange for that)- oh and I better not forget the mirrors. I must be one of those strange people.

I love to clean the bathroom. I think it stems from when I worked for my dad in his Janitorial business. Something about the shining chrome without water-spots that just makes me feel good. For a while there, though, I had to be the worst with bathroom cleaning. I let it get really bad. I mean the toilet was really gross. I just cannot let it get that way anymore.

I have also been keeping up with washing laundry – With the extra person in the house it really builds up fast. I still need to work on putting it away though. My room has piles of clean clothes. I think I will tackle that project tomorrow at some point. Maybe tonight once I am home from the BBQ. Oh and I am taking my camera!

Well – the bathroom is calling my name for more than cleaning — the water pill is kicking in… LOL I better get my day started!

Oh and if you missed them – I have actually written some entries the last few days! One on the 25th and two on the 26th and 27th! WOOT FOR ME!

Very first entry for Saturday!

I find that with Lara as well-she’ll play for ages with coat hangers, her socks, her shoes or her toy box but not the toys we bought for her-weird! 🙂 Happy bathroom cleaning!

RYN: I can not stand Star Wars. AT ALL. *GASP* So it’s probably a good thing I got the game I did eh? LOL.

You have a lot going on today! I would kill to have a pool about now lol

Woot for you! Sierra and Grayson have a few old phones and remotes too lol. And they have tons of toys, but they would rather play with other things, like the blankets (Peek a boo) my shoes, and the chairs in the kitchen lol. Daisies would be SOOO cute for Autumns room!

I’ve gotten caught up! Glad to hear you sounding so cheerful about cleaning! I could use some of your cheer! After I catch up with everybody, I’m going to try to write a real entry. I’m soooo far behind. Hugz,

I have two bathrooms for you to keep your spirits happy. C’mon down!! LOL Speaking of “E” and the Darvocet thing: We had to buy a Brink’s Lock box (fireproof) to keep our once-teenage daughters from stealing meds for my herniated discs (I no longer take…thank you Lord). They were stealing them for cigarette money. I was so ashamed…grown girls who grew up in a home of faith & turned on us like

a pack of hungry wolves. Hubby has dubbed every teenage period of life the “Seven years of Tribulation” for parents. Hubby and I know best. They’re all human beings again. But oh man…it was 7 times 7 teens for us & none too fun. Overdosing was a fun thing with D5’s mental disorder. Another reason for the Brink’s Box. Now it sits empty waiting for me to make millions. LOL

*head spins* A lot going on, eh? I didn’t know about E… that is hard… you are good to take care of him like that.

I know what you mean about having so much medicine to remember. The pill boxes with days of the week is a good idea, and so is that lock for E. Sorry about him. I myself have been suicidal in the past. I have an anxiety disorder and have been on Paxil.

Housework is such a pain. I live in an apartment, and I already find it hard to keep clean. I’m not good at keeping up with housework, especially with school.

Kids and pets can be both a joy and pain. Instead of their toys, they tend to get their hands and paws on things they shouldn’t be touching. My brothers and I were like that, and so are my hamsters. Those are good ideas for Autumn: make the phone and remote control safe for her.
