I'm not tagging anyone but if there is someone out there in Blog land (hu-lind-hum-sey) that doesn't know what to write...
A. The rules of this game are posted at the beginning.
B. Each player answers the question about themselves.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5 people and posts their names, and then leaves a comment on their blog letting them know they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog to get the directions.
10 yrs ago: I was almosr 13. I was in 8th grade. I was more worried about finding a new boyfriend or keeping the one I had or something than school work... I got my first detention for something I was not involved in & I was learning the meaning of a good friend.
5 Things on my list of things to do today:
1)make some real food for dinner, though real food is expensive
2)finish the kitchen, I started with the dishes... now I need to clean the cabinets.
3)Do the laundry... or rather, fold the laundry
4)finish painting the toddler bed so I can sell it
5)shower & get to bed at a decent time so I can be alert tomorrow.
Things I would do if I suddenly was a Billionaire: Well luckily that would get us out of the Air Force! Yeah! I'd buy us a house on a bunch of land. I would pay off all our debt & my parents (his don't have any... they have lived in the same house for like 40 years) Put money away for our kids. Give to the church cause they are like the best charitable organization. I'd also volunteer a lot of my time (since I wouldn't have to work) & money to rescue abused dogs... We're big animal lovers. Oh, I'd build my parents (& the Longos) the cabin they keep saying they are going to build. And I'm sure I'd buy plenty of material crap for us all too!
3 of my bad habits: 1) Being lazy. 2) Over reacting. 3) not balancing my checkbook.
Places I have lived: Modesto, CA; Logan, UT; Manhattan, KS; Gooding, ID; Moscow, ID; Las Vegas, NV; St. George & surrounding areas (Leeds, Washington, Washington Fields, Ivins); Wichita Falls, TX & Buckeye, AZ... Wow...
Jobs I have had: ECO office clerk at Nellis AFB (I tracked all the computers on base), Pest control office Seceratary, Childcare, MOM
Things most people don't know about me: I'm having trouble thinking of things.
1)I am also (like shelly, horrible at keeping my house clean, I only do it when someone is coming over.
2)I love the stupid reality TV shows, I used to watch them all the time...
3)I spend way too much money on toys for Brok that he really can't even play with... but what mom doesn't?
4)I like change. I get really bored...
5)I can cook very well but I never do cause I'm always too tired or lazy

Ok...
This week has been one from well... everywhere! Monday I woke up so sick I couldn't even lift my arms to fix my hair. I slept most of the day & when Kevin left for work, I hurt myself & couldn't even get the baby out of his crib so Kevin got to come home. I was achy, feverish & weak. I wasn't nauseous or throwing up thank goodness. I was just plain sick. But I felt much better after sleeping all day (honestly, I was only awake from like 230-6 or so) so needless to say, I didn't work...
Then Tuesday I wasn't 100% but was 100% better from where I was monday... & it was the day of Brok's evaluation so I just sucked it up & went to work... It turned out to be a good choice... Not only did his eval go well which I will explain later, but I really need the hours this week! Because I didn't work on Wed which is my day off (though I ended up getting called in for about 4 hours) so that was day 2 this week of no work & then Today, he didn't work so what do you know, neither did I!!! so... in the last week, I have worked only 2 days! a total of only 12 hours... oh well...
So today I go to re-register Kevin's motorcycle, which we tried to do last week but had issues with not having the right stuff. So we got "a copy of the original title" which is what they told us we could use faxed over well when I go in today, it won't work... They need a notorized or certified or some crap copy... So all the work I went through to get the faxed copy was for nothing... So Kevin has his motorcycle class tomorrow & I'm freaking out cause it has to be registered & he can't miss this class without major punishment & the lady was like well I guess I can give you a temporary for 90 days... So I had to fork out $15 for a stupid temp one (I know it's only money) & now he can deal with it!!!!
anyway... So Brok's thing... An occupational therapist came & eval-ed him... She basically just asked all about his history & talked about what she was doing & what the programs & stuff were. Then she did some prodding around him (she tickled him & he squirmed he is so ticklish!) pulled his legs, sat him up & tried to get him to stand all that kind of stuff... He wouldn't or rather couldn't. & there's a reason... He has what's called hypertonia which is basically just overtoned muscles... His muscles are always flexed so they are super strong & he doesn't work his joints making them very weak... So... What does this mean? Well he will start physical therapy... She told us to be excited because... He will probably skip the walking stage & go right to running since his muscles are already so strong, once the joints catch up, they'll be no keeping still... We're just hoping we can keep up! But it is definately a blessing that it is not something more severe (not that we would have loved him any less) & that it is treatable... For me, I just can't imagine him being able to move! I'm going to have my hands full once he can keep up with the other 3 at work!
As for the rest of life... well we're just here...
