I just got done watching my new passion..

Okay, it's confession time for me. I am such a huge fan of Celebrity Rehab and the spin off to the show...Sober House. Don't ask me why I enjoy that show so much. It's on VH1 Thursday nights and I just sit and watch and talk to Nichelle and the tv. I'm sure she's thinking that I've lots my mind but it makes me feel better knowing that she is listening.

The cast includes Rodney King of all people. I remember being 8 years old watching all the LA Riots. He's actually a real mellow guy who went into Rehab for alcohol abuse. The other people who reside in the sober house(the place they encourage graduates to go after rehab) are some okay famous people. The fomer drummer of Guns n Roses, a girl from American Idol, Andy Dick, the guy from Crazytown. There's this model chick I've never even heard of who's just a hug away from needed another hug. I just watch this and think I'm the next Dr. Phil or something. Oh dear.

As I'm typing this I'm wearing some readers Mom bought for me, so I feel like a teacher or something. I wore contacts in school so I've never really been a glasses person. Not to sure what I will do about these headaches. I do know that Nathan will probably never want to see me with my eyes in that altered state again. Poor kid, I just wasn't his mama.

I just found out my friend got married and didn't tell me. Silly rabbit. He just added me as a friend on facebook, so I got to see the wedding photos. She's cute, but she's not me. I know he was so sad when I got married...but he wouldn't tell anyone. I could just tell. He is my buddy though, and he loves my Aunt Jacquie. But that's just between us(whom ever is going to read this :D) This text goes with me...I feel like a teacher mode, I just realize that. Not much more I can write about at the moment cause I'm watching my favorite er show on discovery health channel. I'll be blogging soon....

Adventures with my eyes and migraines

Okay, I've had this ever lasting migraine since the 15th. I mean, I've eaten sweets(That's for Amberlyn and her kiddies!!), had some nice greasy chicken wings last night(grease calms my tummy down if I feel sick) had Excedrin for I don't know how many days in a row. Turn the lights down...I mean blah blah blah everything to try to make my head feel better and no suck luck. Mom suggested going to the eye dr, so we did that Monday afternoon. In all the icky yucky rain. :( I have the Ray Charles glasses to prove I was there...and the dilated eyes. My eyes are healthy, which is great news, but no relief about these migraines. I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I haven't really been sleeping that great since coming home with Nichelle, my back hurts too much and of course...I'm taking care of two kids. Jordan could sleep through the world ending...I swear.



Nathan is such a ham. Yesterday he put his rain/snow hat on and decided to play blind man's bluff...by him self. I had to laugh cause he kept raising the hat so he could see, then he'd cover his eyes again so he could keep feeling his way around the living room. I thought about doing Marco Polo for a while, but he wouldn't be about to answer me back yet, since he has no idea who that explore is. He was an explorer right? Yeah, I did great in History class huh?




Ahh, I would love to be a kid again...but then I couldn't submit my kid's picutres for America's Next Top Model. I took this one of Nichelle last night...I love it. Beat that Tyra Banks. No, I so love that show, and I am not sure why they won't let my cousin be a finalist from Seattle. She gets in the top 6 from our Wonderful city, then one of the judges goes...uhhh I don't know if you'd work for our show. She tried out so many times, we know excalty how the show works. Grr...I don't know maybe next year.

I'm a slacker...

I wanted to be more like Amberlyn(who's name I had to add to my computer's dictionary just now) and write in my blog all the time. But I'm a facebook-o-holic so maybe one day I'll be great at adding to my blog.

All week I've had this ever staying migraine. It's so a constant reminder at every event. Taking pictures of the kiddies, at Nichelle's dr. appointment yesterday...going to bed, waking up, doing the dishes...watching my favorite show Kath and Kim!! I mean everything. I'm still nursing so that really limits what I can take for this stinking headache. I went to Mom's house last night(they were having their monthly scripture class) and they talked me into staying for brownies. I was on my way to Dairy Queen, sure I can save some Money!!! Well in all fairness...the ice cream and brownie with chocolate sauce worked! Whoo hoo. I stopped on the way home at McDonald's...and got a mini meal. Ahh, it was great.

Am I the only one worried about these eight precious babies in California? I just watched Dr. Phil yesterday was that crazy loud lady Nancy Grace. I did get a little chastising because she got emotional relating her experience being a mother of multiples, but still she can explain things quietly...she's always yelling. Did you see her interview with Anne Curry, this lady just seems to be in her own world. And now she's saying she's said she's not getting as many donations as she expected? EXPECTED!!! Oh dear. Anyways, I'm so not happy with the woman Nadya Suleman. But she brought these babies into the world, I just hope the death threats stop long enough so we(not you and I) can help this poor family out.

Okay, off my soap box. WE went to the dr. yesterday morning. Nichelle was an angel of course and Nathan was the detective he always is. He was asking Dr. Betteridge what everything was. We were in the exam room that's more for men, since I saw a chart explaining good reasons for getting Viagra. I was like oooo Nathan don't open that drawer, you don't want to know what's in there. But the nurse told me they do pap smears in the room. Liar, liar pants on fire. For real....

Almost birthday time in my house...and also the Shumates, I know that for sure! Anyways...I'm getting exctied...oh yeah and Alexis too, can't forget! The big 2-5 for me and #3 for Miss. Alexis. Whoo hoo! I like birthdays, only problem is, no one can remember mine...oh well.

I will write soon, I can feel my pulse in the middle of my brain so the headache is creeping back. Have a good weekend everyone!! :)

Quick update

Well, I have to hurry and do my simple gift for my husband for Valentine's day. We won't have much of a romantic evening, he'll be delivering flowers. He enjoys doing that during the major holidays. I worked at the flower shop, right before we got married, for the rush during Mother's day. That was pretty intersting. The manager of the place, got fired after the holiday cause she was using some of the flowers to run her own little business. So, she would go to Costco, buy some roses and run her business while filling orders at the store. So she would work to cover her tracks so she wouldn't get in trouble. Oh well, it was short lived me being in competion with FTD.

We're going to a funeral service tomorrow. I'm not really excited about that, cause I'm not good looking at caskets for some reason. They kind of make me feel weird, and sad and scared all at the same time. Maybe that stems from my Grandma passing away when I was little. I saw her in the funeral home, and I haven't been the same since. Great-great Uncle Levi was 92. It's time for him to see his wife, for him to go home. So, that's pretty uhh...not fun for me. The good thing on the other hand will be seeing all my cousins from Seattle and what not. That will make it all worth it.

Kath and Kim is coming on tonight...I love that show for some reason. Molly Shannon is so perfect, it's not even funny! Well, I better hop in the shower before both kiddies wake up. I'll write soon! My neighbor is very fervently listening to Estelle with Kayne West...American Boy. I really like that song....okay bye for now! :)

We're in the money!!!!

Just think...we'll have him start dancing...and sing a song! We're in the money!

I've been tagged!

Everyone who reads this is tagged to do the same thing...6th picture in your 6th folder. Its kind of fun looking back on the past!

My sister Ashley is going to love this. This was taken at Ashley and Nick's wedding reception on September 13, 2008. I remember the date so well because Ashley told me I have to have Nichelle way in advance so I wouldn't miss the party! Well...I tried my best. Anyways, she looks amazing of course and so does her wonderful husband!
