Hi everybody!
Hey everyone, I know its been a couple of weeks.
Wow. Life has been difficult - I miss me grandpa a lot. My mom seems to be doing OK, I think because she insists on keeping herself overly busy. Mom will be OK, she has coping skills, unlike her sister who copes with alcohol and weed (I still swear she was born of alien parents or something).
Now we have the messy stuff to deal with - the estate. So far so good though - we've decided that we are going to keep every single possession possible within the family - furniture, vases, grandpa's bowling pin from when he bowled his near perfect game of 299 - these are the things that mean a lot to us - that will make us smile every time we look at them, for as long as we're on this planet and not with him.
************************************************
On another note, wow did I take a spill about a week ago ! I am eternally clumsy.
Its not unusual for me to have to get up in the middle of the night to take a leak. Well, it was about 4 am...I stumbled out of bed (you certainly dont want to open your eyes all of the way, and definitely not BOTH of them - or you might have a harder time going back to sleep) - so, I take about 2 steps from the bed...and BAM. I slipped on a pair of boxers and tripped on a shoe (I dont know which one came first, it happened so quickly) - and DOWN I WENT. I fell backwards..landed on my right hip on the HARD WOOD floor. I somehow managed to do something to my LEFT arm though. Gosh...it wasn't pleasant. My wrist was tingling...my hip hurting. I thought "eek, this is gonna leave a mark." Surprisingly, I didnt bruise much - but I do believe I may have injured my left shoulder somehow - it still hurts! I cant imagine what I' did to it - I keep hoping it will just stop hurting, but alas, it hasnt yet. If it isnt any better in a week I suppose I'll have to get it checked out. Just what I need more doctors visits!
Speaking of health, my tummy/abdomen is still hurting. I've been on Nexium for about 2 months now, and I'm not any better. I'm sure next time I ask for free samples (I cant afford the prescription, even with good insurance), they'll want to see me - bastards. I just dont think the true problem has been uncovered. I'm a bit f rightened again - what is wrong with me? So many people go mis-diagnosed, and die from it. I'm too young for this shit!
************************************
Mom treated me to dinner last night at Texas Roadhouse. Man it was good. WE lucked out - that place is always packed (I hate lines, so I dont much like to eat out on the weekends) - well, the wait was 55 + minutes! Yeah right, I"ll just be a shriveled pile of flesh by that time - the hostess announced there was seating at the bar - would you believe no one jumped at that? SO WE DID! We ditched about 40 people just because we were OK with sitting at the bar, watching the NCAA basketball tourneys. Yeah, that was a tough one. NOT! We both had prime rib (delicious), salad..I had a banana/strawberry margarita...MMMM...Such a nice little evening out with me mom...I just love her so much!
Well, I"m done yapping for now... :) Happy Sunday! And of course, go Jimmie Johnson, #48~
