Sorry, we are alive...

Sorry, I haven't been blogging for a while, since 2009. I have been EXTREMELY busy and until today, I finally got the minutes to blog to let you know that we are well and alive.
I am on Facebook, you can find me there. Sorry, Facebook got me addicing to "Like" and those games too. Ugh!! I need to stay away from them.

Our pride and joy, Kyler, he is really growing up so fast.

We have TOO many things going on for us.. Let's see... 31 Parties, Outerbanks (To the beach at North Carolina), and Lamb Showing for County Festival. The good things that keep us busy and spending qualities time with families and friends.

I hope you all are well...

Oh my goodness!

Oh my goodness!
Where did the time go? It went too fat for us, and I cannot keep up with those days. I am going to try my best to think what I have done far back (my last blog)… Let’s see…

You know I had gallbladder surgery on Dec 3, 2008. It went very smooth and successful; the surgeon was very nice gentleman. He said, my gallbladder was firing and had full of cysts all over and no wonder why I was in constantly pains for weeks. Also they removed my infection gallbladder and they repaired the bottom of my stomach which had tears, no wonder why I had bad acid reflux that made me throw up couple of time after any meals. After surgery, they tried to wake me up, but they had trouble waking me up, one of the nurses woke me up with a strong pepper thing. Whew! That’s stink! I am slowly healing and now I am working on my eating habit. Every time I eat anything spicy, my stomach goes nut, I couldn’t get anything down, that same thing for greasy or fatty foods like hamburger, fried chicken, etc. I am working to take it easy...

We are getting MUCH better with colds, flu and others we have been contagious with, like strep throat, pinkeye and stomach virus since November. We are being carefully not to catch again, taking out vitamins, and antibiotics. We have like 30 of Lysol sprays here in our house, every time we have visitors here, after they leave, we spray it. We really don’t want to get sick again. Being sick SUCKS big time!

Kyler is doing great! He is up for playing softball/baseball again. He is doing really well in school, and much improving with his skills, social and language skills, I am very proud of him. He is schedule to graduate from kindergarten. I am exciting. Right now, he is a BIGGEST fan of Monster Jams. We took him to Pittsburgh to see Monster Jams. He loved it. Now he is bugging and begging me to take him to Las Vegas in March 2010 to World Series Final in Monster Jams. I don’t know, it depends what the weather is like. He is a BIG fan Dennis Anderson, the driver of Grave Digger and Tom Meents, the driver of Maximum Destruction. I am trying to see where they are now, and I think he will love to have his picture taken with them in the future. They are coming to Hagerstown, MD, and it is NOT far from where we live, about 3 hours drive.

We got the wii game, and we are having so much fun! I say the Wii is killing my ass, I couldn’t keep up with it and they beat me. I am planning to get Wii Fit, and I was told that it will help you lose weights and building your strengths, tone your muscles and following up with trainer in wii. Pretty interesting, huh. We have the Outdoor Challenges and it come with a mat to hook up with your wii. Totally awesome, and I was SORE the next day. It had running, kayak, roller blading, jump rope, and many more. My legs were killing me for days, but it is good thing that it helping to tone up the muscles. So far, we have 8 games.

We got rid of Lola, the black lab stray I found on the road in November. I took care of her, and took her to the vet to get her feet clean up. I kept her thru Christmas and we have put Lost Dog signs everywhere in local, hoping someone would claim her. I have been working with her in house training. She was so hard to disciplines. I don’t think she is indoor dog, and she has spent her time staying outside a lot. When I let her come in the house, she would pee or poop in the house, and down stair in family room EVERY TIME! I was like, “WTF?! She was outside all day, and then come in house and pissed on my floor.” What the heck wrong with her. I brought a large cage and I put her in the cage when we are not home, and put her in the cage when she is bad. We decided to put her in the Animal Shelter and hoping some family would adopt her. I just realized that Labradors and Retrievers do shed big time, and I been sweeping my floor constantly EVERYDAY! Ugh! We finally clean up the yard, our yard were a disaster, big holes, and poop everywhere... We cleaned up last week and it is looking better. Sunday, we filled up the holes, and put grass seeds. Hopefully we will see beautiful shiny green grass when it is warm.

I applied several jobs, mostly in the governments and I am not getting any luck yet. Department of Energy, FBI, NIOSH and the High Maximum prison called and told me that I am not qualified for it. WTF? I kept wondering that the Prison didn’t want to hire me because of my hearing loss. I swear god, I am NOT afraid of the prison, and I don’t care of the inmates calling me bad names or bad mouthing at me. I don’t care. If they think I am a bitch, then I am happy to be a bitch. I am not taking their words. I really wish that they hire me, the job is 6 minutes drive, it’s closer to my kid’s school and home, and the money is good, maybe $10K more than my current salary. The FBI turned me down too for 1st position out of 4 positions. I applied 4 different positions at the FBI, the first one is File Assistant and they turned me down. I am hoping to hear the rest of them. Also same for NIOSH and DOE. I am still waiting… I am dying to get out of my job that I have spend 8 years today working in Extension, and I think I am tiring of my job, or some conflicts with the supervisor and other staffs. Eight years of working is long time for me, and it’s my time to move on to another exciting adventure.

Mike is doing great! He been working a lot, and trying to get things stay straight. He is moving to new store and becoming a Head Manager on June 1. With short hours and holidays off, and little more money in paycheck, he is pretty exciting about it. The store, he will be taking over, the work hours are 8am to 8pm, and he will be able to be home earlier, and going bed together. I think he will like it. Since he works ALL the times and he go to work from 5am to 11:30pm and it takes 35 minutes to get home. I don’t see him much lately, only if he gets home early or go work late, I see him like for 10 to 15 minutes before I zoom to drop Kyler off at school and head to work. It’s hard.

Last week, I had major nervous breakdown, with Pappy being rushed to the hospital with shortness of breaths, and leaking valves in his heart, and then Kyler’s school being lockdown, due to the bank across from the school being robbed. The robber is to be dangerous and armed, and had 2 guns in both hands. Scary to think that robber get in the school and being shooting. Scary!! The school locked and had the kids sit down on the floor and locked all windows, doors and pull blinds down. I am thankful that robber didn’t go in the school. If he did, it would be EVERY parent’s worst nightmares to hear from school principal, BOE and so on… So far, Kyler is safe… The school did really good on the lockdown drill for first time. Pappy is doing MUCH better, and they are changing medicine to keep the fluids out, and hoping to get the leaking shrink, so he can go to Denver and Grand Canyon for the last time.
I know, it is LONG, and I am trying doing my best to keep up with you guys and going to try to update when I have something to day.

I would like to congratulate to my blog buddies on their engagements, on their wedding, on their pregnancy, and the birth of new babies!!!

Also I would like to say Happy Belated Birthday to you all if I missed your birthday in the past.

Please forgive me for being way behind on the news.
