Our day today

Today will hopefully be great. Samuel and I are going to Erica's to swim and hang out for the day. Samuel and Luke will swim or just go nuts in the yard. Erica and I are going lay out and just chill. I have to work on her notebook and get some stuff downloaded for her. I gotta kinda watch the sun..I got burnt yesterday during Field Day at Samuel's school. But my skin just turns brown the next day and then you can't even tell I had a burn......but I can feel it.

Update on my honey. He is still feeling like crap. I sent him back to our family doctor yesterday...I knew his blood pressure was up just by what he was telling me. Headache and dizzy..He went up to the office and his blood pressure was 160/100. Told ya so...I think that is what I said to him. Well the doctor told him what to do and what not to do and recheck him in a month. I'M NOT DIGGIN THAT!!! Something is wrong and I'm not finished digging yet. This isn't over yet. Well as far as the GI stuff we still have to wait until next week. He came home yesterday and wanted to mow the yard......not a good idea...but he is as stubborn as me and wanted to do it anyway. We made a deal...Front yard today only!! We compromised. 5 min later I was outside bringing him water and just watching because I was afraid he would pass out or something. But he made it. He is strong..sometimes to strong for his own good. I am in protective mother hen mode right now. I'm just scared....and I always want him here so I do my part to make sure he takes care of himself.

On another note...I work tonight then I am off 7 wonderful, glorious days. Laz has to work other than the doctor stuff next week, so Samuel and I are going to live at the park. I think I will take him to Legion and let him play in the spray park and maybe we will go to Yellow Creek too! That is my favorite place in this town. If I could have a little cabin or house right in the middle of the trails I would. I find it so peaceful. I guess that is why I take most of my pictures there. I love walking the trails. I hope to go and walk them alone with just my camera after Samuel starts kindergarten. Having that time and peace makes me so much easier to live with. My time to unwind and think....and hopefully get some great shots of something.

Well its time to get ready and pack our swimming stuff. I'm so ready to get out of this house. I love being around Erica and little Luke. She makes me laugh and smile. I am completely myself with her and that is a nice change for me. I really need a laugh and a smile on my face. This week has been emotional, hurtful and stressful to say the least....I hope that today will start my vacation on an upswing. Everyone have a great day...Enjoy the sunshine!!!! Ohh and I hope to have some pics to share the next few days........bye

Another busy day...Im ready for my vacation

In the morning I will hit the ground running. I have to have the cat in Lamar, In. by 8am. He is getting declawed and deballed. That should be a fun ride. We have to pick up Laz from work at 7:30am and off we go. Then we have to rush back and get Sammy on the bus at 10:30 am. I thought we would be able to get some alone time while Sammy is at school, But no such luck. We have a meeting at 11am at the school to look at the kindergarten class for next year. We have to decided if he will stay in school there and if he can handle it or will he have to go to Burns for special classes...which that is not what I want...but we will see how he does. Then he gets out of school at 2:30 pm and we are off again to pick up the cat. So I'm not really looking forward to tomorrow. I have to work at 10:30 so I hope I can fit a nap in.

Everyone in my house has been in bed since 7:30 tonight. Laz has been in a bad mood since last night because one of our cabinets fell off the wall. Yes that is what I said. It fell and split. One of the guys did not put enough screws in the wall. So Lowes was here today getting everything settled. They have to order a new cabinet and a new facet, because it broke the fall of the cabinet and kept it from splitting the base cabinet. Ohh what a mess. I am so ready for my house to get back to some type of normal.

So I have just been laying on the couch..watchin movies and actually took a 45 min nap...That is usually a never. I'm still not feeling like myself yet and I'm a bit puny ..but maybe tomorrow it will be different. I think I have worn myself out. But never fear..I will be on vacation starting Saturday morning and will be for 7 wonderful days...I think I will sleep and swim the whole week away. Well I am off to bed. Everyone have a great night.

Pics from Saturday

We got to Jennifer and Kevin's kinda late Saturday because of so many people that we knew were graduating and Laz had to stop and see them. We get up there and get to just hang out and visit for awhile. The boys played and played. Samuel played basketball and pretended to play golf. We had a great time and it just did not seem long enough and all to quickly we had to head home. I had just enough time to get a bath and get dressed for work......ohh and work has been crazy. Well I am going to check on out of here....watch Dale Jr..get a shower and go back to work....Ohh on a great note..I actually got 8 hrs of sleep today. I only got up once and then went right back to sleep. That never happens. Well everyone have a great night.



Me and Jennifer were just sitting in her rocks and were looking at her plants and fish



If you get offended easy...don't scroll down...We were telling our husbands they were #1 in not such a sweet way. Nothing like men not minding there business and running there mouths.....But we love them anyway!










Kevin and Laz The culprits.....they love us anyway too!

My weekend to come

Well I will be out of here in about 2 hrs and me and the family will be going to a birthday/memorial day party. This is what we usually try to do every year. I'm not really in the party mood right now..but I am sure when we get there everything will be great. I have to work tonight and then I will try to sleep as long as I can on Sunday. I hate to miss church..because I reealllyy need to be there...but I have to sleep sometime. Then we will do our usual. Laz will bring lunch home for me when I wake up. I hope we can sit out on the porch most of the day. I'm sick to death of this computer and cleaning the kitchen and the house....and need to get away. I will work Sunday night and then I will come home Monday morning and more than likely I will have to do some shopping. I really need new jeans..mine are getting too big. YES I said too big. It so nice to hear that coming out of my mouth. Then if I have time we are off to the Fowlers for their Memorial Day cook out. If its warm I would love to lay out back and get some sun...that would be perfect! I hope that by the time Laz gets off work we can spend sometime together before I have to go back to work. I should have just taken Memorial Day off. I had the chance to give the day to another co-worker but I like my money too much. Well I hope everyone has a great 3 day weekend. I may or may not post...it depends on my mood...and right now its not looking too good....peace out.

Indiana Jones Date Recap...Target visit..Victoria Secret...

Well the date went good. We went to Fazolis...I wanted to take him to eat Japanese food but we did not have time.(My Fav) We only had 30 min until the movie started. The movie was good..not what I thought it would be...but Harrison Ford is just so funny and the guy that plays in it with him...the kid from Transformers....I forget his name..he was really good too. After the movie was over we stopped by Target and I had to get a new CD..the new Three Door Down. I really like them. Then I wanted to look for a new bra...no such luck!!! Well I have to get busy now..I want to try and get my kitchen, living room and dining room back in order. Noni is here to help and we have a post of coffee going. Wish me luck.

Indiana Jones

Well tonight I have a hot date with my husband and Harrison Ford. If you can beat that then let me know! I am a Indiana Jones fan from way back. I can remember that being one of the first movies I had ever seen inside of a theater. We just did not go and do things like that when were kids. So I am so excited. I bought tickets online last night.. being afraid when we got there it would be sold out. So now I am getting ready for my Hot Date! If he will just get his butt home from work. I have a sitter and I got a pedicure and manicure..That is rare for me too do. I am ready! We so need to get away from this kitchen and the kid. Just to get a break and be us again. So I will let everyone know how the movie and date went. Peace Out!!
Ohh and here are a few shots of our new cabinets. I love them.

Perfect

These are the lyrics to the song. The download is not released yet..but if you are on my Myspace page this is the song that is playing..Its also the song from Smallville that I previously posted about. It beautiful and Perfect.


I see you across a crowded room
I see you across a crowded room
I see you across a crowded room

And I'm paralyzed
I'm paralyzed
Because you're perfect

I wonder if I'll ever get to talk to you
I wonder if I'll ever get to talk to you
I wonder if I'll ever get to talk to you

When I'm paralyzed
I'm paralyzed
Because you're perfect

When you leave tonight
Your lovely smile and the way you shine
It won't be mine

If all I get is just one day
I'll have to say in every way
You're perfect

I wonder if you'll notice that you changed my life
I wonder if you'll notice that you changed my life
I wonder if you'll notice that you changed my life

And I'm paralyzed
I'm paralyzed
Because you're perfect

When you leave tonight
Your lovely smile and the way you shine
It won't be mine
If all I get is just a day
I'll have to say in every way
You're perfect
You're perfect

What tore my heart out on Smallville this week

Anyone that knows me knows that I am the biggest Smallville fan in the world. I have every season on DVD and a big poster in my "scraproom". Well I have been watching since season one. I found it by mistake but I have been addicted to it every since. I watch it when I am scrapbooking, cleaning, editing my pictures, or just bored. I can tell you all about the mythology of Superman.....Just ask me! yes I sound like a total geek....but I don't care. Well anyhoo...Anyone who watches Smallville knows the love story of Clark and Lana. In the mythology he does not end up with her...but she is his first love and all 7 seasons have dealt with their love story. Well in the season finale she lets him go because she is holding him back from his destany..which of course kills him. Now this is only one of the few times I have seen him play this character so openly and show tears like this. Other than the death of his father. So I was sitting on the couch watching this and I knew it was coming....the music started and I just knew it. I tried not to cry because Laz was sitting beside me on the couch. I just about damn near choked to death. I don't like to cry infront of him....so when it was over...he looked at me and said "yep I knew it". So this completely tore me a new one. I am kinda hard on the outside but very sensitive and mushy on the inside and men crying...tears me up...Not wimpy man cry....strong man cry...Girls I know you understand what I mean. So I found the clip on YouTube and posted it below. The song is called "Perfect" By Michelle Featherstone. This song spoke volumes to me! I love it! If you want to hear the whole song then go to Michelle Featherstone Myspace Page and she finally loaded it. I can't download it yet...but I am working on it.........Yes this is corny to some..but I don't care... I love it.

New Song Michelle Featherstone Looking for Love

I have not watched Lost this year. Just too much stuff going on Thursday nights. I watch Smallville, then its time to put Sammy to bed at 8pm and that takes forever..so I have missed most of the episodes this year. Ohh and I just love this music. It was either a post with this song and The Notebook or this song and Lost. So Lost won today. Enjoy!

Tuesday

Well so far its been a good day. I lost another pound..Makes almost 15 pounds this month. Whoop! Whoop! Me and Sammy got up and headed out the door around noon time and went to see Noni and the kids. We just hung out and then took the kids to the park. We had a great time. I even got to be a kid for awhile. I got to swing...Gosh I forgot how that feels...Like flying...or as close as I am going to get. We took tons of pictures. It has been such a beautiful day. Now here in a little bit we are going to meet Brandy and look at a house with her. I can't believe our little girl is getting a house. I'm just so proud of her. She is really excited! So she wants Daddy's approval and then go from there. If I get pictures then I will post them. Well I have to go and get some stuff done in the kitchen. Tomorrow is the big day. I just wish I didn't have to work tonight...and tomorrow night. Tonight will be the hell unit and Weds night will be the easy unit. Thank goodness! I think I may be dead by Thursday. Sammy has school Thursday so maybe if I let myself I will sleep when he goes to school, but then again I may have plans to go shopping by myself...We shall see! Ok peaace out!

The Notebook Music by Lifehouse

This movie is one of my favorites of all times. I had no idea about the movie until a friend had me borrow it. I watched it by myself late one night and I think I could feel my heart break.I love love love Lifehouse. So it caught my eye on Youtube. Enjoy!

My First Post

Well Hello Everyone. This is my first post on the new Just Being Sam blog. I could not use "just me being me". It was taken! So right now Noni and I are just working on our computers...having coffee and just talking about the day. I will post a YouTube clip in a few minutes of my favorite movie. I found it today when I was just looking around killing time. So I will have it up in a few.
