We celebrated the Fourth on the second at my Uncle’s house. I was surprised by how few people showed up. I saw my Uncle Dan he is doing well after his wife passed. It was nice to see everyone who was there….Well not everyone. I have decided I am done with my cousin Alice. I know, I know I have said that for years but this time I am done. I didn’t really even talk to her. It’s clear she doesn’t really want me in her life and that’s that.

I had to go to the hospital for a test for my acid reflux. It just has been bad since late last year. I was for sure thinking I had an ulcer. Well, not that. I do have acid reflux but it’s mild. I found out I have an incurable stomach issue. I have gastroparesis. Basically, my stomach can’t process certain foods easily. I had to fast to get this test done and hadn’t eaten anything for 12 hours. Cheese stuck in my stomach from eating that at noon the day before. I do have some of the symptoms that go along with that as well. So, I am unsure about going forward and what I will do for sure.

Tex turned 5! Can he stop aging now? He had a great bday! He got a dog cookie. My mom and dad got Tex a new toy! He is such a good boy! We love him very much.

Last week nothing really happened to write anything. This week however I learned something I wish I had known before. Ugh! Yes, I am going to complain about my in-laws again. I just don’t understand. Because I know Melina is not Darlene but Ken should be the same. Used to tell us important things going on in his life so why isn’t Melina like that? We do the same if something is important we talk about it with them. They are family.

We had Father’s Day here like we always do. It was a great day. Melina was acting so strange though. She was quiet and that isn’t her. On Wednesday Jeff saw his dad at work. He told him that Melina’s brother had died of cancer in May. MAY! Father’s Day in June. WTF! I wish we knew. We could have been more understanding towards her feelings on that day. I understand death is hard but Ken could have said something. They are so strange about that. We are for sure no longer close and that’s sad.

Melina called me to apologize for her behavior on Father’s Day. I told her not to be and that I understood. She is one of those people that can’t grieve right away and could tell she is having real trouble doing so. Ken told us she hasn’t cried all that much but is depressed about it. Understandable. Just wish we knew.

We had fun with Tex. We took him for a ride. Trying to show him when he goes for a ride it doesn’t mean bad for him. We went to Dunkin’ and he had a pup cup which he loved! He was so tired by the end of the ride though.

I got to hang out with my mom on Wed. We went out to eat and went to the huge sale at Herrschners. It was fun. Here is my haul:

IT’S DONE! YAY! I am beyond happy with it!

Hubby took a video of it because it’s too big to put into pictures. He added music too. It’s great!

I am in love with it! This video does it justice as I can’t see all of it just by looking down.

This was super painful and I was happy to have it end. Wade the tattooer told me I was AMAZING! Lol! I didn’t swear or take a lot of breaks. I only took one break and endure the rest. It was the most painful ever! Wade said I could really get any tattoo anywhere because you know some tattoos are really painful like this one because I did a great job enduring it.

It’s weeping a lot! Every time I had it done it weeped. Because this is bigger it’s weeping a lot that is normal. I can’t wait for it to be healed. It’s gonna be so cool!

Next Wednesday I can’t wait to get my tattoo all finished! I am so excited to end the process. I can’t wait to see it all done.

I can’t believe it’s going to be June. Going to hang out with my mom to go crafting one full day! Which is one of my favorite things to get and look at. Something else to look forward to.

Okay, one more thing. Next week Jeff and I will almost be done with getting the house ready for the builders to come and change the outside of our house. We, also get new windows! I am excited.

I finished another YouTube video:

Mother’s Day went good. I made these flowers for my Mom, sister, and sister-in-law.

Chrissy really loved these. She was like how long did it take you? WOW! I love these. I think she thanked me a million times, which surprised me. That day was a good day.

I am all the better from my rashes which whew I thought I would have to see a dermatologist. I am glad I do not have to. I am getting another implant in July. I am looking forward to it and I am looking forward to finishing my tattoo.

Made up with my sister so Mother’s Day is back on. It was good we could move
passed it like adults.

My legs! Sunday, I went back to Urgent Care. I got another round of pills. I
was debating on seeing a dermatologist because I figured skin, they know skin.
But now I think I will wait. I think my legs got extremely dry. They felt very
scaly. I got Aquaphor and wow this stuff has helped me so much! I really wished
I did this first before going back the 3rd time but at least now I can
get some relief. Also, I am able to sleep which is so important. I was not a
happy person because I couldn’t sleep because of my legs.

We went to Ulta Beauty on Tuesday because I had to go to the dentist to make a
plan for another implant. I wanted to get my mom a gift card for there. I have
only been in Ulta one time with my mom. I don’t know, I thought it was going
to be fun to look around. I was wrong! This place actually gave me anxiety and I
was having a wonderful day. First of all, the smells were all perfume mixed
together literally burning my eyes. I felt like I didn’t belong there. I
wanted to look at the makeup but just couldn’t. I felt so anxious there. So,
crazy! We just got the gift card and left. I never want to go back there again.

This week was NOT a great week.

As you know I got my tattoo but I got a tattoo rash which I found is common. On April 27 I went to Urgent Care and I got antibiotics. Well, I got a really bad allergic reaction and broke out all over my body. May 3 I went to the ER. It was so insane. Since April 27 I have not slept well and so very tired. Then I thought about going back to the doctor again because even in the ER they pumped me full of drugs my legs itched and burned still. However, I decided to wait it out and I am glad I did. My legs are starting to look better. Still a bit itchy and I have to take Benadryl but my tattoo is no longer hot to the touch. I am happy about that.

I got into a huge argument with my sister. I am not proud of it. Just all about Mother’s Day. I hate Mother’s Day. I don’t understand why I have to plan Mother’s Day. I was just so upset with my sister and the things she said. Adam never helps the situation. Always have to play peacemaker and that makes me more upset. But it worked out in the end. I talked to Chrissy and we worked it out. Now all is right in my world again.

Today Ken and Milenna are coming over. Jeff is starting his classic car up. It hasn’t been started up I think he said 20 or 25 years. Something like that. A really long time. So, that will be cool.

On Sunday we are visiting my parents and bringing them lunch. We are going to hang out with them to see how they are doing.

Not a whole lot going on this week. I got this project done and I don’t really like it. lol!

It’s okay. I don’t like the finished project. Also, never glued a project like his altogether. There was hardly any sewing.

Wednesday, April 19 went to get my tattoo finished which I thought but didn’t turn out that way. In my mind, I thought maybe a slight fade in the background, maybe some shadow zombies. But DAMN!!! Wade outdid himself. He drew up this badass background that I so wanted! Now I will have 3 Resident Evil references which I love!

Here it is so far also Tex photo-bombed me lol!

OMG! I am so happy with it so much! It’s not done but damn this time hurt so badly too! Okay so of course the Emblem on the hazmat lady and the zombie girl are the references you can see right now. There will be another later. AHHHH!! I am in love with it! Can’t wait to get it all finished. Will see Wade at the end of May to finish. So far I spent 14 hours total getting this tattoo.
