Is it really me?

Ok I am very slack about writing. I know. I have not felt like it and not much has happned in my life really worth writing about.

I have been writing here for over 2 years now….

Different day – same stuff

The duck still hangs around.

My sister brought her rabbit and its hutch to my house so now I have another animal to take care of…

The weather is HOT and Humid

I hurt all over

We got my mom’s old queen size bed and trashed the one we had since we got married over 9.5 years ago…it is an orthopedic with a pillow top. Still hard as crap *not that crap is hard unless it has been sitting out for a long period of time and not in the toilet* It, the mattress, not crap, is not very comfortable, in my opinion. I wake up even more sore than I did the night before.

I wish I had a lotto hit so I could get a King Size Tempurepedic. That is my dream.

I got some papers from SSI that I don’t understand. I need to take somem quiet time and sit and go over them again. I know I have a few things I need to correct that they got wrong from my phone interview and I still cannot find my birth certificate. I have two kicking around my house somewhere, I just cannot find them.

I closed my online store. No one bought anything in the three months I had it open – and I could not see spending the seven bucks a month to keep it open. So there goes that dream down the flusher.

I really need to process all my photos of Autumn. I have not felt like doing that either.

I need to update you all on how she is doing too.

She is now 15 months old and finally able to wear 12 month size clothes. I put her on the scale and it said she weighed 19 pounds. I pray that is correct or my scale is on the low side. I don’t want the doc yellin at me that she is underweight again.

She just cut her top two teeth and has 4 teeth now… AND she started cutting two more teeth on the bottom.

She is starting to talk more but she knows so much and gets frustrated that she cannot talk back to us in words we can understand… She knows all her parts of her face, her feet, toes, hands, belly button and hair. She knows the difference when you ask her where her milk cup and juice cup are. She knows the difference between all her toys if you ask for a certain toy, she will bring it. She has started to differentiate between teh different cats. Bobby t-is boba cat. She uses a regular fork correctly most of the time. She dances and turns in circles alot. OMG she is so funny. Her latest strange thing to do is take what ever she is eating and smooch it into her hair. She does this because she knows mommy will give her a bath and bath time is her favorite time. She LOVES the water.

We are having a problem with temper tantrums. She has started the terrible two’s early. But that is ok. I can handle it most of the time… but not when I have one of my migranes…. If the guys are home – I ask them to take her… if I am by myself… she goes in her room for about 10 minutes.

My diet has been blown all to hell. I am supposed to go back on the South Beach induction tomorrow. I am back up to 219.

Lets see what else is going on…

I think that is it for now. It is 10:30 and I need to try to sleep.

I appologize to everyone for not writing or noting more. I just have not felt like doing the Open Diary thing. I will try to do better. I may have to pare down my faves list so I don’t feel guilty about not noting or reading everyone. I am torn over it but when I log in – and I see that all of you *over 180* have updated… I am intimidated and tempted to just turn the computer off.

I have also taken to being invisable on Yahoo again. If you need to chat or check up on me just send an IM and if I am there I will answer you.

I do love you all, and I am so sorry I have not been around. Your lives are passing me by and I miss you guys. But I am sure you understand… sometimes we all need a short break. I hope to write more. It may not be in depth things about what is going on in my life-as my life is not too exciting right now… but I will try to post SOMETHING.

Take care and I love you all,

Huggles and Smoochies,
Dakk

Merika was always just as petite. 🙂 Nothing worse than a hard mattress. And, last but not least… 🙂 SMILE!

August 14, 2005

*hugs, hope you feel better soon.

August 14, 2005

I miss you! Take care of yourself and your family…. ((hugs))

August 14, 2005

I understand how life can be at times. I hope you get the chance to come around more often, and will be thinking about you. *hugs* Take care of you and yours, okay? That’s all that’s important, in the long run.

I am just glad to see you around. Sorry that things aren’t their shining best right now… Just take time for you as much as you can. We aren’t going anywhere. 😉

We have a king temperpedic and it SUCKS! It was ok for a while, then the foam gets “broken in” and it doesnt support evenly..blah blah blah…my husband now sleeps on the floor! I would recommned a sleep number bed….but my inlaws have one and they HATE IT! Guess there’s no winning!

August 14, 2005

Awww, I miss you! Come back soon! And I’m glad that Autumn is doing so well! Oh, and about the bed..it might just take some getting used to. Whenever I sleep in a new bed for a night, I wake up sore the next day.

Don’t worry about her size, my OD (turning 18 in 2 weeks)was the same sizes as autumn at those ages and now she is 5-8 and about 135? & between her 9th & 10th grade she grew 6 inches and put on like 38 pounds, she was heartbroken & thinks she’s fat, but she is just right now. Glad to see you still are checking in once in awhile, it’s hard sometimes to write when everything stays the same. >^..^<

***hugs*** go ahead & take ur break. wishing u the best, take care!

August 14, 2005

Glad to know you’re still alive!! Autumn sounds like she’s growing up 🙂 *hugs*

I was wondering how you were getting along. Sorry to hear things are a bit down lately, hopefully it will get better soon. Take care.

I’ve missed you. Remember Open Diary is for YOU not for notes. You come in and write when you can if you feel like it. Don’t worry about the rest of us. We’ll come in note and write when we can too.

*hugs* Glad to hear things are ok. Sounds like Autumn is growing up fast.

*hugs*

Bear in mind that those Terrible Twos are all about her learning to assert her individuality NOT just to drive you nuts!! (((HUG)))

No appology nessesary, i understand. I have not been in much of a mood to write either. Just take care of you and your family! And don’t worry about what the Dr. says about Autumns weight. She obviously sounds like a healthy “petite” little girl! There is nothing worse than a crappy mattress! Take care, {{hugs}}

The good thing about OD is that is shows we don’t all have perfect lives and sometimes it sucks. You write when you feel like it! Take care 🙂

If it makes you feel better, Ben regularly wipes his hands clean in his hair, then he complains in the tub when I try to comb out those curls!!! xxx

August 15, 2005

*hugs* I haven’t really been much into the whole OD thing lately either. I go in stages. 😛

August 15, 2005

I am glad you are still atround! And Autumn sounds like she is doing AWESOME! Sorry your health isn’t better. Take care though and it’s nice to hear from you whenever you can!

180, WOWZA!! No wonder you just turn it off. I was wondering why you haven’t been on yahoo. Hope the depression dragon hasn’t reared it’s ugly head. If you need someone to talk to you know how to find me. I had also closed my online store. Mine didn’t stay up as long, but it wasn’t feeling right. Sorry you didn’t sell anything. Hugs & Hope you have a great week.

Those wonderful “terrible twos”. They start about 15 months of age and don’t end until age 3. It’s a LOOOOOOG process but all so normal. *smile*
