Friends!!!

You never know who is going to come into your life!
I have been very lucky over the years, there have been people who have come and gone, but lately I have discovered that I am very Blessed with some of the people who have come into my life.
SO here is a look at my nearest & dearest friends that I am lucky enough to be in contact with everday. Let me start off by saying it has not been until the last few years I have been comfortable enough in my own life to be close to other females...as we know we can be Double Barreled BItches at times!
My Holly, just shy of 9 years, I met her 1 week after I met my husband, and they have both been by me through some pretty rough times. We dont see each other everyday, but be talk, email or im everyday. I trust her with my deepest thoughts and feelings. And we know we are strong enough to be honest with each other. It takes alot to have a say anything relationship with a friend but I have that with Hol and I pray I always will. She has helped me more than she knows and at times I do not feel as though I can give her the Thanks she deserves. I know there is no way I can ever thank for being there for me in the hospital Feb 2, 2008. I knew I could trust her to follow through with things that needed to be taken care of for Logan's Party. She knows how anal I am and she can deal with it. I just hope we keep our friendship how we are, and just continue to be there for each other.
Erica, she is THAT friend. We have been together for 6 years, We started working together when I was pregnant with Logan. WOW working with someone you know you go thru some CRAP!!!! But we dont mix personal with professional, we know where to draw the line. She keeps me in stitches. I can not be mad at her, and she is good at reading my mind, I have been around her for 2 of her pregnancies, and have loved every minute of it - except for the time she was off...I think she took longer than she should have! We dont hang out that much outside of work, that sucks. But dang the time we do hang out.....we have a blast. There are days I look so forward to talking to her, she is always good at bringing me up; and keeping me there. She is also so good at NOT letting me get to big headed. She never lets me forget my boo-boos or when I call someone BABE....
Lisa...Lisa...Lisa....What is there to say...Her mom even says it is scary how much alike we are. Lisa came into my life 3 years ago, they have been an eventful 3 years. We have been through medical issues, strokes, miscarriages, and LIFE together. Like Holly, Lisa and I dont see each other every day but we do communicate everyday. She is great for me, she helps me stay grounded, and keeps my in line, because of what she has been through, I have learned to not take life for granite, The one day I did not talk to her because I had a headeache was a day she needed me. But by lots of prayers she got through it and is here to keep us ROFLMA for a long tome to come!
All of them, as much as they dont know it help me more that I know how to show. I try to not unload on anyone, and burden people with my problems and issues, but all of them care and know when I am hurting or in need. They each hold a special place in my heart, and I can honestly say I love each of them for all the positive things they have brought to my life.

That one Friend?!?!?!?

So lets talk about that ONE friend..
You know the one who YOU can not satisfy! The one YOU are not good enough for! The one YOU just dont get.
I have ONE of them....She knows who she is. She likes to be the thorn in my side, the eyelash in my eye...and even that itchy butt crack when you are in a crowded room.
I think she likes playing mind games with me. I think she likes being in my head...I have enough voices. I dont need her in there milling around looking for something else to hang over my head....like the time Missie fell!
She knows who she is. I feel like she is mt Brokeback Mountain.....I CANT QUIT YOU!!! That is how she makes me feel. She knew this was coming....I hope she likes how i blogged her....

My Drama Continues!!!

So here goes...yet another Stupid is as Stupid does moment!!!

For those of you who don't know we have a drive in movie theater in Ennis (Garrett) off of I-45, well we like to go out there, and Logan just loves it. So here goes the rest of the story!
We went on the spur of the moment last weekend to see Journey to the Center of the Earth & Wall*E, they were both good movies. We got there right at Journey was starting, and I decided I would make the 1st Concession stand run...I have to use the facilities as well. So if anyone has ever been to a drive in you know they have little fences that divide the 'theaters'. As I stepped over the little rail, my right foot made it fine, but the left foot that was a different story! I hit it on the license plate of the vehicle that was sitting on the left side of the rail. Well I noticed I had cut my toe, so I cleaned it up. As I waited in line, I got very neasuated. When I got back to the car it was already starting to swell. I had a really bad feeling. But hell we were having fun why worry.

So I sat in the car watching the 2 movies, when it was time to go, I stood up and felt lots of pain and swelling. Since I had broken my right foot 2 yrs ago I had a good feeling I had done it again. Once we got home, I took some medicine, went to bed and proped up my foot to keep the swelling down. Well that worked until the next morning, when I got up to take a shower, and it swelled back up like a.....run over oppossim on a hot summer day. So off to CareNow we go! Have you ever been to one of these???? The doctors are the smartest people EVER!!!!
She comes in and says, well if it is just broken toe all we can do it Buddy Tape it...well DUH!!!! I told her I thought it was more than that...So off to X-Ray! NOW as I stated in a pervious blog about 'specialist' like these...Come on what you do is not rocket science, hang up the damn X-Ray, it is my foot, Either the bone is broken or it is not!! So the dr comes back in and says....well you have done more that broken the toe, you did it good....OK SO WHAT DID I DO????? What ever the problem is they 1 dont know it OR 2 arent sure...so the toe is broke, the foot bone has a hairline crack in it!!!

Now fastward to Wednesday...In Dr Wong's office, this is the greatest orthopedic dr in the WORLD! He is super. He is not worried about toe, BUT the 5th metatraxial bone is broken at the joint and I am pretty sure the hairline fracture is still there. Now if you recall....foot broken 2 yrs ago; I still have the necessary hardware! My orders . . Fruits, Veggies, more Dairy....get as much calcium from natural sources as possible. Wear the boot all the time except to shower, and a little rest in the evening. Oh yeah....BTW if you get the orders NWB mean Non Weight Bearing, so i have to use crutches too....THIS KEEPS GETTING BETTER!

In 6 weeks Logan starts Kindergarten, in 5 weeks are going on vacation...well we will be off work...I guess we will be looking into a Staycation since I have to be in the boot until AUGUST 30!!!! Oh yeah we also go to the Great American Truck show every year, so I will be doing that in a wheel chairor on crutches.

I do know from the last time I used Dr Wong. The man knows what he is talking about, so as much as I hate it...I will conform to the orders of the power that be. As long as I can be better with out surgery, and by the time Logan starts football.

I will keep you posted. Oh yeah...I am still working. Since it is my left foot I can still drive and I still have some freedom. But the ladies I work with are being so helpful, they make sure I have beverage, and lunch. They have gone above and beyond...Especially K-Wils...she is the best....But the other girl...I can not say who she is since she is in my top friends and ALWAYS reads my blogs..she has not been as helpful....I guess she will not be rewarded when BOBBY CROCKER bakes for those who have been most helpful.

Love Ya E!!

Just Call Me Forest....Forest Gump

Stupid is as Stupid Does!!!!!
That is all I am going to say about this weekend for me....I was so excited about having 3 days off...but I need another one to recoup.
I got the mother of all sunburns. There are pictures posted in My Photos.
I guess up kids never learn. But I think I may have. Ray had to get up at 2:00am to go get me vinegar....that is the only thing that has soothed it. Sleep...Cant do that. The back is worse than the legs look, and the heat that is coming off of this thing....I could cook a bird at 350 for 5-6 hrs with no problem.
Well the vinegar bath is calling...and I must rest for work tomorrow. AUGH!!!!!
