Short entry

This is just a short entry. Jim is home. He got home around 3pm. Rebecca is home also and in bed sleeping. Jim is downstairs watching the eagles game on Joes big tv. He is only watching half of it then coming upstairs. He came home with 4 long salmon fillets as long as my arm and about 2 inches thick. I washed it all off, cut it into steaks and placed it in ziploc bags to go into the freezer. There is 25 salmon steaks in there. The pictures from the trip and of the fish before they were cleaned are on a disposable camera. I have to get the photo's developed this week, then I will post them. I did take some with my camera of the fillets and of the gift Jim brought back for Rebecca which she loves. A toy stuffed salmon, lol. It is cute. I am tired. I am getting on my pajamas and going to bed. I'm even too tired to do dinner dishes. I fixed the guys, porkchops, mashed potatoes, gravy herb seasoned stuffing, baked beans salad and bisquits for dinner. They ate every bit of it too, lol. Let me post the pics, then I will go. I'm too tired to type anymore, lol.

It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on 'donating a mammogram' for free (pink window in the middle).

This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors /advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.

It was ok

 Thank you Roxy for the above tag.

Well my night alone was ok. I got alot of cleaning done, got my bath, had my dinner and watched tv. What did I watch? Shrek, 101 Dalmations, The Mask. LOL, of all the channels and DVD's I own that is what I watched. And right now I am watching, Son of the Mask, lol. I went to bed at midnight and did not sleep well at all. I was up at 1:45am, 3:15am, 4:45am and finally at 6am I got up and stayed up. I put on the coffee, then got out my robe cause it was cold this morning. I am so tired from lack of sleep last night. Man it is rough being home alone, lol. I haven't had a night alone in so long, I guess I forgot what I could or was suppose to do. LOL

Jim will be home in a few hours thank goodness. I miss him being in our bed at night. Everytime I roll over and don't feel him near me I wake up. And to top it off I don't see Rebecca in her bed, and I just feel so alone. Weird huh? Rebecca never called me before she went to sleep last night. Emma said the girls made a bed on the livingroom floor laid down and was watching the same shows as I was. Emma told Rebecca she was going to put the load of clothes in the dryer and then call me so I could tell Rebecca good night. She came back to livingroom afterwards and both girls were sound asleep, lol. Emma said they played outside all day, had dinner and got a bath, and watched tv. I guess they were worn out, lol.

Well, I have 434 emails to go through. So I guess I'll sort through them. I hope you all have a nice sunday.

Love to all...............................

Am I Dreaming?

Before I tell you my wonderful news, I will tell you about this morning. Jim called at almost 12 noon. He sounded so happy. He says honey, make room in the freezer. I asked him why. He said he caught 2 salmon last night while out on the boat night fishing. The small one is 33lbs, and the large one is 40lbs. He has pictures of him holding up the fish. He is also going to be on the website of the place where their at for catching the largest salmon this month. He said the other 3 guys he is with, Joe, Brad and Jay all caught fish, but none were even close to 33 and 40 pounds. He has them being cleaned and packaged and will be bringing it all home tomorrow. I'm glad he'll be home tomorrow, I miss him. And of course my daughter Emma said, Mommy don't forget me, I want some salmon. She loves it cooked under the broiler with lemon juice, butter and pepper. And salmon she is going to get too.

Now for my surprise. Emma calls me about 1pm and says, Mom do you need a break? A break I said. She said yea a break. I asked, What kind of break? She says well how about if Rebecca comes over tonight and spends the night? HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I'm like ok, but what's the catch? She says, no catch. Dan suggested that Rebecca spend the night and give me a little break for all I have done for them the past couple weeks. Well, you know I took them up on that offer. I packed her an overnight bag, a few stuffed animals to sleep with, her pillow and her duckie blanket and off to Emma's we went. I stayed there a couple hours, played with Daniel, held my baby granddaughter Adrianna who actually stayed awake in my arms for about 3 minutes, lol. Emma asked if I wanted to stay for dinner. I told her are you kidding? I don't have a kid tonight, so I am going home to enjoy that quiet time and clean my house with no interruptions. Listen to some music while cleaning. Have a Boston Market turkey and mashed potato tv dinner and a salad, and enjoy my evening alone. I'm going to soak in a nice hot bubble bath, shave my legs, wash my hair, and enjoy my little part of heaven. So if I am dreaming, please don't pinch me or wake me up cause I am really enjoying the quiet right now, lol.

My vacuum took a major crap the other day, so I brought the vacuum I gave to Emma home so I could vacuum without Rebecca chasing it with a stick like she always does, grrrrrr. She uses my wooden back scratcher to chase it. Rebecca is going to call me before she goes to bed so I can blow her night night kisses over the phone.

Wow, no husband, no child, oh my gosh. I think I'm in shock, lol.

 

I'll be back later.........................CINDY

The Best 24 Hours

   Good evening my Jland family. I hope everyone is doing well. I just put Rebecca to bed. She was so tired, and was falling asleep on the couch. She's had a long day today. School from 8:30 to 12:09, then home to change her clothes. Doctor at 1:45 for a physical and a chicken pox shot. I am happy to say she got a clean bill of health. The doctor said she is a very healthy 6yr old and very smart too. She also had an eye exam, which is so funny. The nurse was giving her shapes in a row. The nurse would point to a shape, say in the 4th row, Rebecca would tell her what the shapes were in the next row under it, lol. Nurse said no problem with Rebecca's eyes. She has the eyes of a hawk, lol. Rebecca is 47 inches tall and weighs 67 lbs. He said just to keep an eye on her weight, and if I can to help her be more active to possibly lose 5 lbs. She is only 5 lbs overweight for a child her age and height. So we're gonna cut down on the cheese and cracker intake and add more fruit and veggies and more water. She loves water with ice cubes and a drop of lemon in it. Tonight instead of a fattening snack she had cantalope. She got her chickenpox shot and took it like a real trooper. All she said was, ouch. And she got a dinosaur sticker that said Super Patient. Then we went over to Emma's so Marissa could hear all about the needle and the doctor. Around 6pm Rebecca said she felt hot. Her cheeks were flushed, so I took her temperature and it was 101. I gave her a dose of Tylenol and an hour later, she felt cool and her temperature was down to normal. She got really sleepy and is in bed sound asleep.

Anyways my "me" time last night was great. I got all comfy on the couch, lit my candles, got in my jammies, had a pan of very hot soapy water and sat on the couch watching CSI soaking my sore feet and then gave myself a pedicure, foot scrubbing of a build up of dried cracked skin. I used Angie's body butter and rubbed it all over my feet and heels and ankles and let me tell you it felt awesome. My feet look great, feel great and are so soft now. And best of all they don't hurt from the cracking skin because it's all gone. Angie if I didn't say it before I'll say it now, you have the best products I have ever used on my skin. And I thank you so very much for having Canyonsun products. Jim would tell me I need to see a foot doctor cause of the skin cracking so bad. I don't think so, not anymore. I can't wait for him to come home sunday so I can show him my feet.

Anyways I watched CSI and I was so happy Sara was found and she opened her eyes in the helicopter. But now I hear she is alive but will be taken from the show soon? That sucks. I like her. I think she is a very good actress and plays her part well. After CSI ended, I watched Without a Trace. It was really good. These 2 shows were worth the watching. And I got to relax, pamper my feet and hear every word said on both shows because I was alone in the livingroom. Jim is away on his fishing trip and Rebecca was in bed. I felt so good this morning. I even slept good. After I took Rebecca to school and stood with her until she went inside with her teacher, I went to Emmas and spent the morning with Daniel and Adrianna. Daniel kept running over to me patting my arm and saying, Me wuvs you mommom. I swear that boy melts my heart. Then he says, you no come over yeterday. That's how he says yesterday, lol. Emma said he kept looking out the window all day yesterday for my van to pull up. But I stayed home and did my errands. Rebecca and I made sandwiches for dinner tonight. And we had a pickle. Tomorrow my day is planned. In the morning I am going through all Rebecca's clothes and sorting them out. Keeping the ones that fit her and boxing the rest up to be mailed away. Mopping my kitchen floor and going to Emma's to do a load of laundry and having dinner at her house.

Jim called this morning to see how we were doing. He said it poured all night and lightning and thunder was bad. He said this morning he woke up freezing, the temperature dropped about 30 degree's outside. He was headed over to the restaurant to have coffee, then he was headed to the river to do some fishing. He uses his flyrod when he is salmon fishing.

Well, guess that is about it for now. I'm going to go to bed in about an hour, and I hope I sleep good again tonight. I wish you all a wonderful weekend. I am going to read some journals, then head off to bed.

Dinner for me?

I just wanted to make an entry now, because I am going to be busy later on. I have to clean the kitchen, cut up cantalope and put it in containers for snacks and breakfasts, get Rebecca into bed, straighten up livingroom then park my behind on the couch and watch CSI. I will be turning off my computer at 9pm and leaving it off for the night. Tonight I will watch tv, and crochet. Just gonna relax and enjoy some me time. Jim left this afternoon to head up to Salmon River for a 4 day fishing trip, so he can't disturb my night of tv, lol. Rebecca goes to bed at 8pm, so I will have total quiet.

So, tonight I decided to do something special for Rebecca and I for dinner. I let her make the dinner, but I baked it. She's too young to use the oven. She took the roll of bisquits, flattened each one, topped it with sauce and cheese and meat and I baked them. She loved them. And so did I. We also had fresh veggies with them. We sat at the couch with our trays set up in front of us and watched tv. A Field of Dreams was our choice of movie.

Yesterday my lil man Daniel spent the day with me. I took him to Burger King for lunch. He had a chicken nugget happy meal with apple juice. He drank up his juice and conned me out of my iced tea. The lil stinker, lol. The Target Rash he had all over him is completely gone and so is the swelling. He looks so much better.

Well it is now 6:30 and I am going to go clean up the kitchen. I wanna be all done and set up for my me time and the tv. Mrs. Grissom (Lisa) I have 2 hours and 20 minutes left before it is on, wooohooooooooo. Have a great evening everyone.

Love you all.................CINDY

Miracle????

I believe................

Rebecca has to have a physical for school and I was informed she needs a second chickenpox shot. So I called our doctor. They said it was 50.00 office visit, 5.00 to fill out the form for the physical, and 85.00 for the chickenpox shot (varicella). I cannot afford that much this week. So I just made her the appointment for the physical which is tomorrow at 1:45pm. She has early dismissal tomorrow at 12:09 so that is perfect. I hung up the phone, and said Lord, how am I going to be able to afford this chickenpox she needs? Please help me with a solution. Well no sooner I got those words out of my mouth, the doctors office called me back and said she talked with the doctor and he said she can have the shot for free!!!!!!!!!!! I told them I had no insurance and lived paycheck to paycheck, when I made the appointment for tomorrow. Can you believe that? My prayer was answered that quick. DO I BELIEVE IN MIRACLES AND GOD? I SURE DO.

THANK YOU DEAR LORD.
