Update

My headache is still bad. I went to a prompt care today (since it is Sunday and my doctor's office is not open) the doctor there said to quit caffeine (soda) and to take magnesium so that wasn't very helpful. So basically I didn't get much information. I haven't had any caffeine today at all (doesn't tylenol have caffeine in it? so if yes then that is all) Isn't a 4 day headache odd?

Go Away

Go Away-Headache

I have had the craziest headache for 3 days. I am not one to get headaches so it actually is making me a little nervous. Tylenol is doing nothing for me. We were suppose to have a get together with some friends that I canceled today because of it. That is really unlike me.

Because of the headache I am laying on the couch watching "Legally Blonde" I am not sure why I wanted to watch it, but I did. It is an easy movie to veg-out to.

The hubby and I were going to go out for dinner tonight. Hopefully I feel up to it. (I should be able to get a quick bite to eat with just him)

I am so happy I don't have any major plans this weekend!

Season 6

I just started season 6 of Lost. I finished season 5 about a week and a half ago and took a little break. Just finished the first episode of season 6. So if you need me I will be watching Lost.

Getting Something off My Chest

Ok, this is something I have wanted to get off my chest for a long time now. There is so much to this story I don't know if I can even explain correctly.

Background: My mom's oldest brother (my uncle of course) died on September 21st. He was 56 years old. He had beginning stages of colon cancer and he went into surgery to get part of his colon removed and he did not come out of anesthesia (is that spelled right???) correctly. His organs shut down starting with his liver and kidney's. He was very unhealthy!!! Poor diet, overweight, severe alcoholic. Yes his liver and kidney's went first probably due to the alcoholism. He has been a severe drinker since probably 17 or 18 years old. He actually owns a bar. He actually had a very, very wide group of 'bar stool buddies' that, I guess if you asked them, they would say they were 'friends'. These 'friends' (and I can't express the sheer number of them) stole from him, lied to him, took free alcohol from his bar, asked to borrow his vehicles all the time, always made fun of his weight, etc, etc

Well, we actually didn't hold services for him until yesterday because he had no wife or children and my 84 year old grandma didn't get the ball rolling for awhile and my aunts helped her, but basically it just took from sept 21 to yesterday to do this. My grandma wanted a private service since she didn't want all his drinking buddies there. Well his drinking buddies were very mad at this. So they are doing all this weird stuff:

*they started this facebook fan page and everyone is telling stories about him-but all these stories are drinking stories from the bar that makes him look like such an alcoholic. They are really embarring stories of him.

*they all changed their profile pictures to picks of him at the bar holding whiskey bottles and drinking

*today they are doing a three hour long convey to all these bars and drinking a drink at tons of bars in his honor.

*they are posting really rude things to us on facebook because they couldn't go to his funeral

*this one lady on facebook wrote "love and miss you Uncle *&@^(insert name of course) he is not her uncle, he is mine and my cousins

*they are saying a lot of other rude things to my aunts and random people around town.

*one person also argued with me (she was falling down drunk and I was paying for my gas at the gas station and was having a conversation she pushed her way into) that I wasn't his niece. Yes I am that is my mom's brother!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*there are also lots of illegal things his friends have done with his property....I can't get into detail about this but it is very very bad.....stealing among others.....he actually lived in one of my grandma's houses (she has two)


I am just so embarrassed. They did not know the now bar stool side of him and they are being so mean. I wish I could tell some details but I can't.

I had such a great work out today but then I came home an ate almost a whole package of Andes Mints.

I have such a busy weekend coming up. Tomorrow I am helping a friend shop for her daughters Halloween costume. In the evening, we are going to the comedy club again. Saturday we are burying my uncle and having a Mass in his honor, and Monday I am going to an apple orchard/pumpkin picking. I am excited!!!!!! Lots of fun stuff.

I didn't work at all this week. I wanted to. $$$$$ But I got a lot done around the house, so that is good. My husband enjoyed all the baking.

I will be watching TV all night tonight. I love Thursday night shows!!!

Kitchen Aid

Has anyone ever heard of a place that services kitchen aid mixers? Mine isn't broke, but I thought I might get it maintained. I want this one to last forever since I spent extra money to get the stainless steel metal one (not plastic) So, I was wondering if I should take it somewhere to get it greased for maintenance.

Tuesday

*Slept in but then went and worked out. I have worked out everyday they are open since I started (they are not open on Sundays)

*went to the salon and got a manicure, hair trim, and conditioning treatment

*shopped around for my birthday present (I know this sounds weird, but my husband will not know what to look for and he works a lot...he is ok with this) It looks like it is going to be harder to get than I thought. I want a macro lens for my camera. The one I want is back ordered on canon.com and none of our camera stores have it in stock, but there is one store that is trying to get it. By this time next week I will know whether or not they can get it soon or it will be back ordered and that could be 4 or more months. It I can't get it by my birthday then I will get a new charm for my tiffany and co charm bracelet.

*made Pizza casserole for dinner

*watched 19 kids and counting and Parenthood. I will be watching Teen Mom soon.

Well that was my day, not too interesting.

Fun Night

Date night last night was a blast! However, we did go out to eat first and I had the worst Philly cheesesteak I have ever had. It was so salty and dry!!!! But after dinner we had a little time before the show so we stopped at my brothers house who lives really close to the comedy club and chatted with him while he and his roommate ate dinner. The joke was hilarious and there were 3 comics. The comedy club is my favorite place to go. I am also going next weekend because I get in for free because of my birthday month (they pick one show a month and anyone with a birthday during that month gets in for free and their friends get in for $2 off) The headlining comedian is going to be on Joan and Melissa Rivers' new reality show that premieres in January on the WE network. She was very funny. I can't wait until next Friday when we will go again. Next Friday comedian is sometimes on the Chelsea Handler show and has been on David Letterman more than any other comic ever.

Today I am just chilling out. I just got back from church and trying to decide how I will spend the rest of my day. My husband is working so I will be alone.

Birthday Wish List

Since this is my birthday month. (Not until October 31st) I wanted to post my birthday wish list.

Cricut Cartridges-I do want the one listed, but actually any new one would be fine.

New Lens for my camera. I actually only want two more lens: a macro and a telephoto lens and that is all I will buy. I think I want the macro one first. So it won't be the one in the picture, but this is the first image I found in my google image search.

I love TV Series. I currently have FRIENDS, Sex and the City, and The Gilmore Girls in the complete series box set. I do want to own Roseanne next and because I hate the last season. I might actually buy these season by season which I normally don't do. So Season 1 of Roseanne.

A Tiffany and Co charm for my Tiffany and Co bracelet. I don't know exactly which one I want next quite yet, but this cupcake one is on my wish list. However, I might get the one that looks like a small Tiffany's gift box with a bow.

A COACH purse.

Breath

My busy week is now coming to an end. I have worked out everyday this week and my wedding rings felt a little looser yesterday.

I think we might be going to a local comedy club tonight. A comedian by the name of Lynne Koplitz is performing and she sounds funny. We will go if my husband gets off of work in time (which he should).

A friend of mine stopped over with her daughters for a little bit this morning and that was fun. I love just sitting in my living room visiting.

I do have a funny story from yesterday.

I subbed in a cross category correctional classroom yesterday. (which basically means any grade level at-risk students..I had 5 students all day-2 k, 2 1st grade, and 1 2nd grader) They were special needs and they needed to have someone sit with them at breakfast and lunch to assist them.

So I was sitting in the cafeteria while they ate breakfast. They all arrived at different times (different buses and parent drop-offs) I was sitting with my first two students and then my third one came in, took his bookbag off, looked at me, looked at his classmate sitting next to me and said while pointing at both of us, "Are you his grandma?" I am 28 years old and don't even have kids. I really hope I don't look like a grandma yet!
