I have either a head cold or my allergies are really acting up. I'm voting for the allergies. I hate being sick. I hate blowing my nose all the stinkin time. Dayquil isn't working. Advil Cold is kind of working. I think I just wanna go home & relax. But I have too much work to do. The office is moving on Friday and I have to pack it up yet. Internet is being installed on Thursday in the new office and the phones are SUPPOSED to be moved Friday after we close. Notice the big supposed, we haven't had much luck with the good ol phone company on any prior move and I am having a hard time getting ahold of anyone at the phone company to confirm everything for me. I'm trying again.
If this is not a head cold then I have this to look forward to until the first frost. It's this time of year that I pray for the first frost!
Saturday we had football. Our first game was Lil'Man's. It was a 45 minute drive to the game, they had to be there an hour early and kick off was to be at 9am. We left the high school to car pool/caravan over at 7am. 7AM on a SATURDAY! It was a horrible game. The other team was HUGE! They had 7, yes 7, 5 or 6th graders that weighed more than 150 pounds! They were not allowed to carry to ball but they were allowed to tackle the snot out of our little guys, we have 1 boy over the weight limit. & they were allowed to break one of our best running backs! Poor little guy. He suffered a season ending blow. They broke his collar bone. He is in very good spirits however & is still excited about being able to be the waterboy & to help the coaches out. Another boy suffered a blow to the head. He was out for the rest of the game. Lil'Man was surprised when the other team started to push him around. He has never had another football player actually push him back before when he was rushing forward. They pushed him around like a rag doll. It was horrible! But this is amother talking, so of course I thought it was horrible. Atleast Lil'Man didn't get hurt.
Beanie's game was at 5:30 in Grant, much closer to home. However it started raining at 5:30 and at the end of the first quarter it started to lighting- so they called a 30 minute weather delay. The cheer coach (who is pregnant for child #5- has all girls & thinks this is another girl) decided it wasn't worth the chance of any of the girls getting sick so she sent all the cheerleaders home. We went to my Dad's, where he filled my kids up with all kinds of junk! We then headed home, where I had homemade chocolate chip cookies, homemade apple muffins, and some other junk-ah- goodies waiting for us. Charlie called me before I got home & asked if he & his 2 kids could come over. So I had extra kids at my house all weekend. Did I forget to mention that KK (a player on Lil'Man's team) was over at 6:40 am to ride with us & didn't leave until after my brother came over? KK came back -this time with his brother- on sunday & stayed the afternoon. I had a migraine all weekend. It finally went away just in time to go to work on Monday.

I updated somewhere. Must have been that other site. Oh well. Not a whole lot of new going on in my life. Lil'Man won his game on Saturday 20 to 0, however the week before they lost 26 to 0. They have another big game this weekend, we have to be at the game at 8am and have a 45 minute drive there! No sleeping in for us. Then Beanie has to cheer at 5pm, so it's another day of nothing but football! Good thing I like to watch football, only like to watch it in person- don't like to watch it on tv.
Speaking of TV watching, Grey's Anatomy is on tonight and not another rerun either! I think I am going to have liked it better on Sunday night, it will take a lot to get used to it being on Thursday night for me. I guess it's a good thing Joey didn't come back this year cuz then I would have to decide which show I was going to watch. Apparently I was the only one that watched Joey (spin off from Friends), I thought it was a funny show, I must be a party of one.
I did get one drama taken care of. My office is moving in one week and one day. As of yesterday we didn't have any internet service lined up (& we really need internet too). We were "too far away" for SBC DSL (we are moving three tenths of a mile down the road from where we are now & we currently have SBC DSL- go figure!), Comcast Cable would have had to run a line under the road in order for us to get cable internet (& they were going to charge us the cost of said cable). Dial up is too slow for us to use. But today (thank you Comcast Site Survey Dude for telling us about this place!) I have found internet service! Let the light beams from Heaven shine down on me! We will be getting wireless internet from a place called FreedomNet. I haven't experienced their service yet, but their customer service on the phone is awesome. I will so recommend them to anyone that asks me! They are $39.99 a month with an installation fee of $95 (before the $40 rebate!) Not bad after I have been looking at T1 service for $300-$700 a month!
Gomer's birthday is 25 days away. She is counting. I have no idea what to get her, or what to do for her. I am thinking no parties this year, except for the usual cake/ice cream with the g-parents. I think instead for each kids' bday they can have a friend or two spend the night. I didn't have a party each year. Heck I had a party for my 6th bday and I do believe that is the only one I can remember! It was my "golden" birthday. I had a party for my 30th. A bunch of us met at the bar & had a good ol' time. Similar thing for my 21st too. But my 6th was the only one that someone else planned & did all the work for.
Last Friday (the 15th) was a very rough day for me. It was the 13th anniversary of my Mom's death. I found this year harder for me than past years. I have no idea why it was so much more difficult. I tried to keep myself busy so I didn't have time to dwell on it. I found if I wasn't doing something or had my mind on something else that I would just start crying. Time goes on, but that doesn't mean it makes it any easier or makes me miss her any less.
