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.

Last Wed April 5th was a long day! I went to Triumph Tattoo in Green Bay to start my tattoo. It took about an hour to really hold down what I really wanted. Wade was awesome! He really honed in on what I wanted the tattoo to be. It was a lot harder than I thought too. A LOT of details I didn’t think of for the tattoo.

We spent 8 hours there that day. I was sore! Worth it! Here is the first part of my tattoo!

The hand holding the bat is my hand! He took pics of me holding a bat. I think that is cool! Also, it’s original. Of course not finished yet. Got to add some things and going to have a background. Next Wed. April 19 it will be finished. This is everything I wanted! Zombies killer lady and Resident Evil. I can’t wait till next week to see how it will look all done.

I have finished project 2! Yay!

The pic really doesn’t do it justice but I can say that I finished them! I will turn them into magnets and then give them away for Christmas, on to the next project.

Next Wednesday I am going to start my tattoo! I am excited and nervous at the same time.

I am trying to stay positive this year. Been hard sometimes but I need to get back on track with that. Sometimes my family still brings me down because they don’t care to know about me more. It makes me sad. It seems they are all in their own world and I know that happens. Even more so Adam and my mom. It’s ALWAYS about them, all the time. They can make me feel unimportant and it really sucks. However, I am going to try hard to not let them bring me down this year. I know I have said this time and time again. I am only human. I will try and try and if I am not trying then what is the point? That’s why this year I am going to keep myself busy and not be so lazy about things.

I only did it myself but going through carb withdrawals. lol! It sucks. Oh well, it will get better.

I just found out that my town is getting my favorite coffee shop, a Dunkin’ Donuts I am excited.

I am unsure what I should make my sister-in-law for Mother’s Day. Ugh, I hate it. So, I am making flowers for my mom and my sister. I don’t want to make flowers for my sister-in-law as I don’t like her. I usually give her the ugliest flowers. Lol! I did that last year. But I can’t just make flowers for my mom and my sister as we all celebrate together. Ugh, oh well again. It is what it is. I just don’t like the fact I have to waste my time making something for someone who I don’t want to. I am just going to do it anyways.

I feel better from Covid took forever. There are some side effects I have noticed from having Covid. One thing is some coffee that I liked before doesn’t taste great anymore. That sucks. Another thing is I think Covid damaged the nerve in my jaw. I gotta talk to my dentist when I see him later this year on seeing someone to take a look at it. I went for a cleaning and my teeth are doing great but OMG my jaw hurt so bad later that day and the next day and the next. It felt like I fell on my face hard. I couldn’t talk that much or eat because my jaw hurt so bad. It didn’t feel like any one tooth it felt like my whole jaw was in pain. When I first got Covid my mouth hurt really badly for a good week. Then it started to get better till I went to the dentist and had to hold up my mouth open. I really think it’s a nerve in my jaw. I feel better now but it could hurt in the future. So, gonna see what can be done about that.

I felt so bad on Saturday! That day was lunch with Chrissy and their family. I almost canceled because I felt so bad. But I went anyways. I had a great time with everyone and Chrissy got me this for my birthday this Friday!

That is a purse which is cool. I told her she didn’t have to get me anything and she paid for lunch. That was so nice of her to do. She asked if she should invite Corey and Kim and I said no. Hahahaha! My theory with Corey is we all have internet he could contact me at any time and he never does so oh well with him. I am too old to deal with family bullshit.

Later on Saturday, I did go to Urgent Care. The doctor told me I got a cold after having Covid. She gave me some cough suppressants and they have helped so much! No more waking up at night to cough and feeling terrible because of coughing. I still feel not myself a hundred percent but I think I am getting there.

I am 40 today! 40! I can’t believe I am 40 now. I am not sure how to feel about it. One thing though is I made it! I am still here. I am happy about that.

Well, I am feeling better from Covid except for this chest cough. I gotta go to the doctor’s next week to see what can be done.

Today I am having lunch with my sister and her kids. To celebrate my birthday which is next Friday. I think that will be fun.

I have to add this. This creeped me out! About a month ago April told me these two elderly ladies were checking out. April works at Walmart as the self-checkout cashier. She said she had a nice conversation with them as they were checking out. Their bill came to a little over a thousand dollars! Then they took off! The police were called and April had to make a statement. Yesterday the police came to her work and told her they caught one of the ladies. April asked if she gotta go to court now. The police officer said no because they have been looking for her because she committed murder. MURDER!!!! AHHHHH! April chatted with a murderer. That’s creepy to her and me. She said she couldn’t believe it and this woman is like in her 70s. So crazy!
