Random Facts

Random Facts

The rules are: Once you have been tagged you have to write a blog with 8 weird or random things, facts, or habits about yourself. At the end, you choose 8 people to be tagged, list their names, and why you chose them to be tagged. Don't forget to leave a comment that says, "You are tagged" on their profile and to read your latest blog. Have fun

This time I am going to try to think of different things. ... .. . thinking . ... .. . still thinking!

1.\ When I am mad or arguing with Jason I can't sleep. I have night mares. Toss and turn all night. It bothers me. Eats away at me until we are "good" again.

2.\ I like to stay up late and clean. When everyone else is in bed and the house is quiet and the lights are dimmed... I like to sneak out and clean, then light a candle and sit and relax. Why do it when I have thunder and lightning awake and pull toys and projects out after I clean them up and nicely put them away. Its not that they don't help me, its I have this little OCD about things going back to were they belong (all crayons in the box, all toys with its rightful owner, yada yada)

3.\ I like to be early for work, not to get paid more because I never ever give myself those hours but because it is quiet in there and I feel like I can get my day started off better when I have a "few" moments to myself!! LOVE IT!

4.\ I have a desire to be crafty yet I am the most UN crafty person you will ever meet.

4.\ When I am stressed I have to cook or clean. I normally have to start cooking and then clean while what ever I have made is cooking. Its an evil thing... because it always seems to be sweets or desserts. But then again Desserts is Stressed spelled backwards.

5.\ I don't like the phone. I hate answering it. I hate talking on it. I love texting. I will text you till the sun come up but please don't call me. LOL...ask Potter, we talk for hours and I always end up cleaning while she is on the phone. I think that is where it all stems from...you call me I get bored I have to start cleaning and honestly who the hell wants to clean???

6.\ I am scared of the dark. It is not a "childish" thing, or me trying to be "cute" I am petrified of the dark. E sleeps with a night light and the bathroom light on as well as Joce and I don't argue with them because the lights come under the door of my bedroom and sooth me. Jay has to have it like the flipping bat cave in there and I hate getting up in the middle of the night because its DARK!

7.\ I can not finish a drink, the bottom of any drink skives me out. Its a known fact. :)

8.\ I am one to feel like I am in control of the situation. I know it had a wide range of definitions but it goes for a lot of things. I like to be the driver (except when J is in the car) I have to know what is for dinner in the morning. I like to know what the kids/myself are wearing the night before (hard task since E has been choosing his own outfits) I have to know what our month looks like in regards to activities. I have to plan ahead, if not it stresses me out.

ON that note...I am done..and like Jenny said before: your tagged if you want to be...but my opinion is you should do this...you will learn about yourself! LOL!

Happy Birthday Jocelyn!!

Well my baby girl is 2! I can't believe it. Where does the time go?? She had cupcakes for her birthday with us on Friday (her actual birthday) then a play date with her bestest Sydney and then a little party with her birthday buddy Gabby! We had Syd, Lilly, Gabby and Jocelyn! What a crew that one is. LOL! Myself and Ethan were late because Ethan had a wicked asthma attack and ended up in the ER for 4.5 hrs and come to find out he was bronchitis! Oh what a day!

PCS

WHY... why do you start thinking about it a year a head of time. Get your hopes set on this one place that you really want and then you end up not even picking it. LOL! I am excited to see where we go next. Jason is taking the May SWE (for all you civilians, its the test he takes so he can advance higher in rank, it's kind of a big deal) this time around he is taking it to move up to Chief! Ah... 9 Yrs ago... we were punk ass kids who had NO clue. Now I feel like we are ....... well "grown ups" (when did that happen)

Places we are thinking about are all scattered around. We are not revealing some. Others are like Niagara, NY : Buffalo, NY : Coos Bay, OR : Eureka, CA : Northern Fl. and some more. We have a talk about once a week about it. Sad thing is we don't pick till Oct! LOL!

We want to be closer to family, we really do but we have to look at what & where is going to benifit Jason's career. We can visit, they can visit (yada yada blah blah) Its just a point in time where we have to "think about ourselves"

I love living on the island, I have such good friends here but I am excited to see where we land next. Hopefully this time around I can get my Ack friends to visit. Being here when all their babies are born and then moving away and missing the achievements they make hurts. I figure this...if we get West Coast, The Potter's can just take an extended vacation when they visit family and come see us too. The Ard's I will just bribe, not sure with what but I will figure something out =)

If we move West Coast, for the 1st time in 10yrs I will be able to meet Jason's Aunt & Uncle and see his other Uncle and Aunt!! They will get to see Ethan & Jocelyn!! THAT is exciting!

Ok... I am done rambling..off to spend a Saturday with the family.

The bump from hell!!

OK so Jason woke up the other morning and had this egg on the back of his head. He said it hurt. He couldn't turn his head in that direction either. SO all day he kept saying "its a tumor" Does he thinks that funny. Apparently!

So fast forward to last night. He is so concerned about it (not that I'm not) he googles brain tumors and gets this:

  1. Headache, which is often generalized. It is persistent and worsens with activity, such as straining. It is often worse at night or in the early morning.
  2. Vomiting, which may or may not be associated with nausea. It is more common in children than adults.
  3. Seizures, in an adult without a history of seizures, strongly suggests a brain tumor. Appropriate examinations, including CT or MRI scans, should be done promptly.
  4. Change in mental ability or personality, that may be obvious to the family and not to the patient, or vice versa.
  5. Lethargy
  6. Other: The other category of symptoms has to do with the tumor's location and the pressure effects it produces on nearby structures. There are many types of local symptoms, including: weakness of various parts of the body, especially an arm or a leg
    difficulties in coordination or balance : impairment of memory : various vision defects
    speech problems : changes in sensation : in the case of brain stem tumors - defects in the functioning of nerves that exit from the base of the brain.

So out of that group he has had: the headache (seriously had one for 2 wks) Vomiting (no but he felt like he had to because of the headache) Other (it says int here weakness to various body parts especially an arm) He had tingling in his arm for like 2 wks. SO he is on his way to the Dr's now.

Just think of us today that this is something simple.... Thanks.

Update: Went to the Er and the Dr "thinks" its nothing

serious! SO glad he gets paid mega fucking dollars

to have "think" come out of his mouth. DO some test douche bag

and fix my husband. So long story short he is on anti-biotic

and warm compresses! ARGH!
