Wednesday night my mom went to the ER. She stepped out of her neighbor’s house and fell. She cracked her wrist bone and of course it’s her right hand. She right handed.
I thought I was clumsy but she is a lot worse then me! She got a cut above her eyebrow too. Oh no! She said she is okay. She got a cast on her wrist.
This Friday we are getting a new garage door opener. Jeff’s got that car lift that hits the car door opener now.
Finally got all the carpet out of the living room.
Went to the doctor on Oct 3. It was terrible and awesome at the same time. The terrible the doctor didn’t address my problem I told him about. Seriously?! Why even have a doctor if they don’t help me?! Thinking on changing doctors even more so now. I need this problem taking care of.
Another terrible is the nurse needed to take blood and for me they can never find the veins. So she tried my…my HAND! OMFG! I hate when they try the hand. Still couldn’t find the vein. Was sent down to the labs. Not even a minute the nurse took my blood. She said I can request the lab to take the blood. WTH?! Why don’t they give that option or say when making the appointment or the nurse before the doctor. I would rather have the lab take my blood.
The awesome! The awesome is I lost 15 pounds since my last visit last year. AND my blood work results were the best they have ever been in my adult life. I am so proud of myself. Keto really works!
Sunday September 22 at night Jeff and I are watching TV, it’s around 6:30 and I get the most horrible pain on the right side of my stomach. OMG! I felt like crying it hurt so bad. Decided to just sleep it off, hoping it go away the next day.
It did and it didn’t. Of course I Googled it and then became worried that it could be appendicitis. It was iffy for me because it’s period week. I called my mom and she was like go to the ER as soon as you can could be appendicitis. She also made a good point, she said I would know if it was my period.
Jeff took me at noon on Monday September 23 to the ER. The nurse I had was really nice. I never know who I am going to get. I had a young doctor and he was nice too. He ordered a CT Scan never had one of those. But first they gave me morphine. I have never had morphine in my life. It made me feel so relaxed!
I had to get an IV and then go for my scan. I have to say worst experience I have ever had in an ER. When they wheeled me in the CT Scan room. That nurse told me they will give me solution and it will make me feel very warm inside.
When they tried to put the solution it wouldn’t go in my vein. Here’s the hurty part. They tried my right arm first and couldn’t do it. So the nurse stuck me 4 FUCKING TIMES in my left arm. I was on the verge of crying it hurt so bad! In my right arm they left the tube in and they caped it. But every time I would move my arm I could see blood fill the tube. When I would my arm down the blood would go back in. I am not sure if it’s suppose to do that. Also it pinched my arm too. I was in a lot of pain!
In my left arm I could also see the blood fill the tube. It’s a strange thing to see. One of the nurse was like just put more tape on the arm. I am allergic to the tape but I was like just whatever get this done!! Finally they got the solution in and I could feel warm all over then they took the scan.
When I got back I told Jeff I rather have a tooth pulled out of my mouth with no anesthesia then ever have another CT Scan. They also told Jeff I would be back in like 20 minutes. I was in there for a little over 30 minutes. After all that I just wanted to go home. My arms were on fire!
After waiting forever the doctor came in and said I sprained that muscle. I was relieved that it was all it was. When the nurse came in she took the needles out of my arms and bandaged me up. When she was telling me what I should do to make it better she….farted! LOL!
After she left Jeff asked if I farted. I was like no the nurse did. It smelled terribly! Well time to leave.
The following days my arm!!! My side! ugh! For some days my arm hurt more than my side but at night my side hurts. I hate that I have to deal with it but I also did it to myself.
Last Friday September 13 I saw Miss Lori and got my hair done. I love the color.
I lost 14 pounds all together. I am feeling pretty good.
September 15 Jeff and I have been married for 12 years. Already?! Awesome! He got my favorite flowers.
Went to Jeff’s grandpa’s funeral on Wednesday. I have to say the shortest funeral I have ever attended and it was by design. That is what he wanted something short and no fuss. The priest was pretty good too.
Met a lot of people I will never see again and have never met before. But I have to say there was no drama and everyone was friendly. The funeral home was very nice as well.
Expect for one thing the weather. It rained so hard! We all met at the cemetery even in the rain. Afterwards Jeff’s dad and wife and us went out to eat.
Saturday was fun then sad.
Saturday during the day we celebrated my mom’s birthday. Time to tell rude sister in law moment again. So Mom, Jeff, Chrissy and I are at the table talking and having a good time. My mom says “Hey Kim come over here and sit with us and talk.” Kim ignores her to play with her phone instead. Mom said it twice and she completely ignores her. Rude much?!
Anyways it was good time to celebrate with my mom, she turned 64.
The sad….at about seven o’clock at night we get a call from Ken telling us that his dad isn’t doing so good. Asked if we wanted to meet him at the nursing home. We went and about quarter to 9 Ken’s dad died. It was sad.
Now for the messed up part.
Jeff’s cousin Mark comes with Ken’s ex girlfriend…strange right and a bit awkward. Even more so I didn’t remember her at all. Jeff had to tell me later. Yeah so Ken’s nephew is dating his ex girlfriend. That’s not awkward at all right…..yikes! Also Mark didn’t even give Jeff a hug at all just ignored him. WTF! Why does family have to be so weird at times? Also Jeff’s brother didn’t show up even though we all live in the same town! SMH!
Ken gave Jeff such a nice compliment. He told Jeff you are always there for me. I was like OMG! What a great thing to say.
FINALLY Tex has his cone off. That thing was annoying! I literally have bruises on all over my legs from him running into me.
What’s strange Tex grew again! When we took off the cone. We both swear he is taller now. Lol! Does he ever stop? Too cute and funny he is!
I know it’s the beginning of September but I am getting ready my Halloween folder for scary! I decided I am going to blog on 31 days of scary! And oooo I can’t wait to see Doctor Sleep! I am actually going to go see that in theaters by myself when it comes out. I am waiting to get the book too. The sequel to the Shining! You know I am going to watch the Shining as well. Just have too.
Mom tasked me to plan for her birthday this weekend. Well her bday is the 9th but that is in the week. So so far it’s just me, Jeff, Mom, Dad and my sister and kids. I have no idea if my older brother and family are coming. I will be surprised if my sister in law shows up. She might have to watch Netflix instead. LOL!
For Keto Jeff lost 50 pounds!!! Proud of him. I am still sitting at 11 pounds. However I have lost more around myself. So I am happy with that.
Friday August 23 we got Tex neutered. We brought him home the next day and wasn’t happy with us. LOL! First time I saw him mad. I don’t why but I find that funny! Tex mad means staring at us then turning his back to us. OMG! LOL!
He kept trying to get out of his cone. So we used clips to keep in place. This is the face of I hate you! LOL! Also when he runs into us those clips hurt. I got some bruises and so does Jeff. We did get him a different cone set up. Waiting for Amazon to get here.
Also on Friday Jeff and I went to Regina’s cabin who is Jeff friend and boss. It’s cool be friends with her. However I thought when Jeff said that were going to sit by a fire, I thought nice area to sit near the fire. Not the case we sat on a slope. It was uncomfortable to say the least. It was nice to see their cabin and to see the water.
Regina and her husband Jim are nice people. Jim is retired and Regina is younger than him. I think in her late 50’s. I am not sure though because I am horrible judging people’s age. So older than us. They have to cute doggies too.
Sunday August 18 I went to April’s horse show. Back up on Saturday August 17 is when I got to April’s house. We had to get up at 4 in the morning on Sunday. So. Tired. When we got to the Wade House which is where we were, a storm was brewing. Sure enough it stormed at 9 o’clock in the morning and the show had to be pushed back further. A lot of people left which made sense but that also meant April would go ahead of schedule.
April was totally nervous because it was her first time carriage driving in a show. This show was different then she has ever done because not everyone gets a ribbon. In my own opinion I thought she did good, for being her first time competing. Yes she lost but that doesn’t really matter. She tried and that is what counts. Also love her outfit!
The lady in white is April’s friend Faden and her pony Schmedley. It was a fun but wet day.
Unfortunately when getting ready to leave April got a phone call that her uncle had just passed away from a heart attack. Terrible way to end that day.
Oh! Great news! April is in remission for her cancer. She went to Mayo Clinic to her alcohol shot and found out she didn’t need too! AWESOME!
For the last week we have been looking at SUV’s. I hate car shopping! Anyways our Explorer needed work and we debated on doing them or just get something different. I was like I don’t want to put anymore money in the Explorer and Jeff agreed.
We test drove the Toyota Highlander I think it was a 2010 and I loved it! We went to this one dealer and they pissed me off greatly! We walked around their lot for 40 minutes and no one ever came out to talk to us. They had one Toyota Highlander and guess what? Another couple drove it before and wanted to take it home. I was pissed because we were in their lot for so long! We would have gotten that because it was fun to drive and I liked it.
This place is called Specialty Auto Sales and Service I recommend no one going there really. They have terrible customer service! I was pretty mad and told one of them “Hey we were out there for 40 minutes.” The one guy Dave just looked at me like whatever.
However Specialty Auto Sales and Service had the Dodge Durango. Ugh I was pissed that Jeff wanted to go back. When we went back the second time we test drove the Dodge Durango and it was fun to drive. This time we dealt with the guy named Gary. He was nice but awkward at the same time.
Then Jeff and I talked about it and finally Jeff talked me into getting that Dodge Durango. I really, really wanted the Toyota Highlander like bad! It has been a very long time that I wanted, well not in a very long time like the first time ever I really wanted a vehicle specifically. I really, really wanted the Toyota Highlander! Jeff is the one who drives most and takes the vehicle to work. Even though the Dodge is fun to drive too. I am getting used to having this SUV. I have to say the back up camera is way better than the Toyota. I think one day I will get the Toyota though.
The third time we went back we really wanted to buy it and take it home. Well since it was after five we couldn’t. Have you ever heard of that?! Ridiculous I think. They said because the credit union is closed. I have never heard of a dealer not wanting to make a deal right away no matter what time it was. So we had to leave without the car which by the way. AHHHHHHHHHH!!! I HATE THIS PLACE!
Fourth time coming back to buy the car finally. Seriously getting ridiculous! While we are signing the papers for the car. CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?! The guy asked for my name. We have been there for almost 40 minutes signing things and asking questions. WTF?! Didn’t even know my name?! Are you serious?!
Where did these guys learn business? It was a disgrace! We are literally paying you guys money for this thing and didn’t know my name?! Yeah that was the last straw for these guys. I like literally never want to go there again and I will tell others about them. NEVER GO TO THIS PLACE! Bunch of assholes. And something else the owner who was there never came and shook our hands for buying a car. WTF?! I also didn’t like how they talked down to me when they were explaining how a car loan works. I KNOW how a car loan works. Jeff happened to be going to the restroom so it was just me. I think they thought Oh because I am a woman I didn’t know how it worked.
SO…anyways we got a good car. It’s fun to drive and actually quite a smart car too. Lots of cool techie stuff. However Specialty Auto Sales and Service are a bunch of assholes.
DAAAAAMMMMMNNNN!!!!!
I an understatement truly! Last Saturday and Sunday August 3 and 4th were brutal!
Jeff bought a car hoist and he had it were he had him and two friends to help. But one friend bailed so it was I was the third person. Jeff bought a four post and it was a nightmare to put together but even more so take it off the trailer.
Oh okay let’s talk about getting the hoist off the trailer because could tell I was definitely the youngest helping. Since it was just Jeff and his friend who is also named Jeff and me. I will say Jeff W. because his last name starts with W. So Jeff W. says “Why don’t you get a cherry picker to help out with the heavy lifting.” Now as Jeff and Jeff W. are taking about a cherry picker. I was was thinking what the heck is a cherry picker? Is it a lift with a basket? How will that help with the heavy lifting if it has a basket on it? ROFL!
I asked Jeff what it was while we were going to get one. He laughed at that but he said it’s a like a little crane to help with heavy lifting. Said he would use it to pull the engine on his car as well. And I was like why do they call it a cherry picker then? He said it’s an old way saying for it. We both laughed because they should just call it a mini crane. ROFL!!!
What’s not funny on the way home we hit a nasty storm and had to pull over till it past. Couldn’t see a thing it was raining so hard. Also the wind was so bad it actually lifted up the truck a little in the front. SO CRAZY!
Sunday still the third person bailed. Yeah I am pissed about that. Seriously thanks for being a great friend. Being sarcastic of course.
Anyways my brother-in-law came over and he was a HUGE help. So grateful for helping us out. It literally took all day to put that hoist together.
I was sore for two days and so was Jeff. But we are super grateful for those who helped us.
