SO MUCH GOING ON!

I didn't make it to work on Friday.  I was totally sick as hell and decided the suffering had went on long enough.  I called in sick to work and went to the doctor.  I had a nasty sinus infection.  I'm taking antibiotics and I'm not 100% well just yet but I'm getting there.  I went straight home from Walgreen's and I slept on and off all day on the couch. 

Saturday, Supa was off so he got the pleasure of staying home and taking care of his sick wifey.  LOL.  He didn't mind at all.  We watching a movie with the kids (Liar, Liar - they thought that was really hilarious) and laid around the house all day.  Supa took me to Wally World to stretch my legs a little bit and get some groceries.  He did all the work, I just walked.  He also said he would push me in a wheelchair but I was sure someone else needed it more than I did.  We were supposed to take the kids out to eat dinner and out to have some fun (possibly Frankie's Fun Park) but I was just too sick.  (And as usual, the Mommy guilt was killing me but everyone assured me that they could take a rain check)  We decided to order out and eat in so we got House of Pizza at Neon's request.  Yum!

Sunday, Supa had to work 7-6 so I was home with the kids all day.  We laid around the house again and did nothing.  We did watch another movie, Enough.  They loved that one too.  I decided I had better lay it down for one more day so I could let the antibiotics do their job.


Go, go, go, go!!!!  Do your thang medicine!!

I got off my sick behind and cooked dinner and waited for Supa to come home.  We invited one of our friends over that we haven't seen since September when the coven dismantled.  You can read about that here.  This friend just happens to be Kitti's now ex-boyfriend, we'll call him, "D" for bloggy purposes (because sometimes that's what we call him in real life).  Jade came over to hear what he had to say about their breakup and my two ex-coven members.  Let me just say that for about 3 hours, we had a very interesting and enlightening conversation.

Here are some of the best highlights:
(I'm sure everyone is going to want to know why I believed everything that "D" had to say.  First off, I know those girls.  I know how they are and I believe everything he said to sound just like them.  Plus, they broke up, so what benefit would "D" get out of making shit up?  That's what I think....)

**Nice to know they talked mad shit about us (all of us) when we weren't around

**Apparently, some comment that I made pissed Kitti off.  Are you fucking serious?  You have known me for 10 years!  This can't be the first time I've pissed you off.  You wanna talk about it?  APPARENTLY NOT!  I would call someone that throws a 10 year friendship away because they don't like confrontation a PUSSY!  And, that's pretty much what I'm calling her and her friend now.  Grow a backbone.  Life is really going to suck for you if you can't even talk to your friend honestly about something that is bothering you.

**Obviously, the friendship didn't mean as much to them as it did to us since they never made any attempt to talk to us about it like responsible adults that love each other 

**There were multiple times that I did talk to Kitti and Ace about certain situations and they assured me that everything was fine and they understood.  Then I find out that they went home and talked so much mad shit about the same exact situations over and over again.  I think I deserve the respect of being able to not have two faced friends.

Long, long ass story short, I was a fool and I'm definitely glad to have them out of our lives.  They never really were our friends and they are definitely not people I would ever want around my family.  I hate two faced, fake ass people.  They can live their little lives, in their little bubble with only each other for company.  They deserve each other. 

I told "D" that the only reason why I wasn't super hurting and crying at hearing all this is because it's been since September.  I have already explained (a few times) to my children that it is not their fault, they had nothing to do with this situation and that I was discarded, not them.  I've already mourned the loss of two friends that I thought were my sisters.  I went through the grieving and loss process and they are now dead to me.  I was really nice to get some sort of explanation though since I never got one single word from the two of them. 

We had a nice visit with "D".  We hugged him goodbye and promised to have him over soon during daylight hours so he could play video games with the kids and run around outside playing with Copper.  He looked great by the way.  He's lost 52 lbs!  GO "D"! 

After he left, I passed out.  I had to be up at 5 AM to take Neon to his outpatient procedure at the hospital......

Neon did really, really well.  He did everything they asked him to do.  He never cried or acted scared.  I think that really helped me to hold myself together because I was all kinds of nervous and scared. (I didn't cry either!)

They took him away from me at 7:53 and I got to see him at 8:43.  Pretty fast!  He looked perfect and was eating a popsicle when I saw him in recovery.  He did throw up the popsicle but then drank an entire can of Coke and ate 4 Oreo cookies (for breakfast, lol) and was fine afterwards. 

The surgeon said that there were no tears or masses in his bladder. 

SUPER, SUPER FUCKING YAY!!!!

That means that he doesn't have to have any other kind of surgery to correct anything.  The surgeon also said that his bladder wall looked pretty thick.  This is caused from a person holding their pee, it pushes up against the bladder wall, causing the capillaries to bleed.  SO, since they haven't been able to find anything else wrong with him, this seems to be the culprit. 

I emailed his teacher for help in getting him to visit the restroom frequently during the school day and she is on board so hopefully, this won't happen again.

I'm so, so relieved that Neon is fine!!!  There is no kind of worry like the worry that there is something wrong with your baby. 

Jade was at the house waiting on us when we got home from the hospital.  She was prepared to help me carry Neon in the house if he was totally out of it.  I'm not sure I could pick up 65lbs. of dead weight or not (without injuring someone).  But he was alert and he walked in the house all by himself.  Jade and I hung out, looking after my baby, and had lunch together at the house.  Neon requested homemade mac and cheese and tuna salad.  SO, of course, that's what we had.  :)

Nearly Perfect came over last night and hung out after dinner.  She helped me resort out my feelings from the weekend as a whole.  We had a great time talking and I'm glad to know that the friends that I do have, love me unconditionally because that is what real friends are for.

I'm going to sign off for now.  I missed 2 days of work around a weekend and I have stuff to be accomplished!

Funnies Make Me Feel Better

I'm still sick.  I'm a little better today but not 100%.  Hopefully one more drunken night of NyQuil will wipe this shit out of my system.  Dazzle is still sick too but she's about a day behind me so....Hopefully by this weekend we will all be better. 

For right now, I'm keeping it short and simple.  Funny shit from Uncle Darling coming your way:


Because that shit is absolutely involuntary.  LOL.



I was standing in a bar and this little Chinese guy comes in and stands next to me.

After a couple minutes, I said to him, "Do you know any of those martial arts things, like Kung-Fu, Karate, or Ju-Jitsu?"

He says "No, why the fock you ask me dat? Is eet coz I Chinee"?

"No", I said, "It's because you're drinking my fucking beer, you slanty-eyed little cocksucker!"



HAHAHAHAHAHA!  This is the kind of shit that cracks me the fuck up!  LOLOLOLOL!



Because this type of comment will get you chopped in the balls.



I wonder how many little kids think that....LOL.  What a sweet face!



AND, the best one I found this week:



Yeah, you go ahead and go looking for candy in there.  They should dub this shack, "The Temple Of Doom".  Because there is NO candy anywhere near there!

 I'm done, folks.  I know, I know.  What a slacker.  But I'm just not feeling well!!!  I'm going to pound out some really great stories from my past soon.  As soon as I feel like typing for a long period of time. 

XXOO,

Pinterest Strikes Again!

I feel like shit today.  I woke up sick yesterday and now I'm full blown snotty.  My head hurts, my face hurts, my nose is stopped up and running at the same time (gotta love that, right?), throat kinda sore and just generally feeling like shit.  Dazzle is sick with the same thing and Neon was sick last week.  I hope that this gunk passes for Dazzle and I just like it did for Neon.  AND on top of that, Lolly is sick too!  I know it has to be from us since she was at our house last weekend.  I'm so sorry Lolly!!!!  I hope you feel better very soon.

So, here I sit at work.  Feeling like shit and not wanting to do anything!  I don't call out sick to work unless I'm dying or have a fever.  I did have a fever last night but after I drank that glass of NyQuil and slept like a rock all night, I didn't have a fever this morning.  We have a rule at our house that says, "If you're sick enough to stay home, you're sick enough to go to the doctor."  I didn't want to break that rule and I don't think I need a doctor just yet.  I know what pneumonia and bronchitis feels like and I'm not at that point yet so...here I sit.  

Not yet, but this might be me if I don't feel better soon.....I haven't called out sick in a year (for myself) and I'm not planning on breaking my streak unless absolutely necessary!

Since I don't feel like being here, I decided to go with an easy bloggy theme.  I'm going to share the latest awesomeness that is Pinterest with you. 

Here are some of the best things I have come across lately:


Snoop, it's not you this time!!  If you haven't been living under a rock, you get it. 

I bet Snoop makes the best damn brownies, FO SHIZZLE!!!!



All.Day.Long!!

And who doesn't eat the fucking batter???


I love how cats don't give a damn where they sit.  As long as they are comfy, all is well.  LOL, silly kitty!



Yet another example of why edumacation is so important.



I would kiss his face for leaves!   LOL, what a cutie!



Hahahaha!  No they didn't!



Nah, really?  LOL

I'm going to have to stop there.  I just laughed at myself and a glob of green shit just flew and hit my computer screen. 

That means I don't need to be laughing today.

Sick but not dead,

Poor Little Man!

I came to work late today so I'm going to have to type quickly!  I have a pile of things to do and not that much time to accomplish shit....I really just wanted to give everyone an update on Neon.

I took him to the kidney specialist today and they checked him out.  They asked me about a million questions and had him pee in yet another cup. 

After their assessment, they decided that Neon needs to have outpatient surgery (THIS COMING MONDAY) at the Children's Hospital here in town.  He will be put to sleep and they are going to insert a tiny camera into his pee hole (yes, into his penis, OMG) so that they can see into his bladder.  She said that sometimes an ultrasound will not show little tiny tears or blood clots so they have to do it this way to get a really good look.  They should have the results of what they see right then so we will know what they found before we leave the hospital.  (fucking YAY for fast results!)  Then I'm going to take him home so he can sleep off his anestethia.  They said it might burn the first few times he pees but other than that, he should be good to return back to school on Tuesday.

I have to take him by myself because Supa has to work <deep sigh of complaining>.  I know the man has to work and I'm proud of him for taking on so much responsibility and providing (really nicely) for his family.  I just wish I could have him when I want him (and he isn't happy about not being able to be there at all)...In times like this when I might need a shoulder.  BUT on the other hand, I can handle it and I know he will be texting me like mad crazy finding out what is going on!!  I'm going to hold my head up, straighten my shoulders, hide my fears (and probably tears) and put on my brave face for my little sweetie pie!  He is so brave, I have to make sure he is as proud of his brave Mama as much as I am of him.

Keep us in all your thoughts please.  I just want Neon to be healthy.  I was going to say happy and healthy but he's about the happiest little person I know!  I will post an entry from home on Monday after his procedure so that everyone doesn't have to hold their breath until Tuesday. 

Worried but brave,

Piss Off Monday!

As in the words of my sweetie pie, Gordan Ramsey, PISS OFF, Monday!  I'm sick of you!!  But here I sit at work.  YUCK!  I had a hell of a time getting up and moving this morning but I made it and hopefully the day will be over quickly so I can get back home!  It's cold, rainy and yucky today.  Balls. 

This weekend was really awesome.  I saw a great deal of my friends this weekend...Nearly, Jade and Lolly were all at the house at one time or another.  I guess we really needed some together time.  There was a whole lot of hanging out going on, some cookie baking, birthday party fun, bowling, eating and lips flapping.  Dazzle won our game of bowling and I think part of that reason is that we went to Ryan's buffet before hand and ate until we could hardly walk, much less bowl!  LOL

I was going to full blown blog about this weekend but honestly, with the weather the way it is and all (and work has been kinda busy this morning) I'm going to have to cut this one short.  I hope everyone will forgive me.  If you want further details on this past weekend, just imagine happy faces, lots of laughter and full tummies. 

Imma try to do better tomorrow, I promise! 

Tired, kinda crabby, and COLD,

Download This....

Happy Friday folks!!  I'm super happy the weekend is almost here!!

Here are the latest songs I've downloaded this week:

#1:  Caribbean Queen By: Billy Ocean

Oh yes, I did just go there.  I remember this song from when I was a kid and it is still awesome.  Sometimes you just need a blast from the past.

I have no idea why....but I can't get this out of my head.  Every single time I think of Billy Ocean, I picture a white dude.  WTF?!  Even though I completely understand the fact that he's black.  LOL

#2:  Ordinary World By:  Duran Duran

How in the hell did I forget about this song?  This is a GREAT song and somehow it evaded me.  Not any longer!!!

I like this video too.

#3:  The Distance By: Cake

I love that song "Never There" by Cake and I've definitely heard this song before but I don't think I ever realized it was Cake that was singing it.  Anyhow, this is a great song too.  Neon even liked it.

#4:  Goodies By:  Ciara Featuring Petey Pablo

Simply another good song that got overlooked.  Fail on me.  I realized that I had forgotten this song when I was playing Just Dance with Nearly Perfect and the kids last weekend.  That was a fun one to dance to!

#5:  Live To Tell By: Madonna

I LOVE Madonna and have been loving her long time!!!!  I didn't forget this song.  I think that I thought that I had it all along and then I heard it on the radio and wanted to hear it again.  Nope, not on my computer.  SO, I fixed that!  :)

#6:  Save Yourself By:  James Morrison

I posted awhile back about how much I love James Morrison and I still do.  I listen to his old stuff often but I'm having a hard time getting into his new stuff.  I did hear this song on Pandora at work and I think it's really great.  

That's all for this week friends!!!  I hope you enjoy these songs and have a really super weekend!!

More shenanigans to follow after this weekend,

Uncle Darling's Got Jokes!

I'm keeping it short and simple funny as hell today.  Uncle Darling has submitted some funny ass shit and I wanted to take the time to properly share:

I'm embarrassed to say that I had to ask Uncle Darling WTF this was supposed to mean.  LOL  When he told me I felt MEGA stupid.  LOL



Bahahahahahahahaha!  That's too funny!  Me all day long!!!  I am so not beyond pissing myself out of sheer joy!

Because if you buy me a fake ass mood ring, you deserve to be pounded.  Diamonds are the only stone that's acceptable.  And don't you forget it!  LOLOL!



I mean, this shit is funny for quite a few reasons.  First of all, fat chance guys!  Our first date and you want me to blow you?  I don't think so!!!  Second of all, I love how the chick's legs look normal until she bends then and then they look like they belong to Miss Piggy herself.  LOLOL!!  AND why are the guys shoes so small?  Are we blowing a midget or what??!!  WEIRD but sweet concept!

 Just a Funny:

Two Women were chatting in the house. Woman 1: "I had sex last night, did you?"
Woman 2: "Yes."
Woman 1: "Was it good?"
Woman 2: "No, it was a disaster... My husband came home, ate his dinner
in three minutes, got on top of me, finished having sex in five minutes,
rolled over and fell asleep in two minutes. How was yours?"
Woman 1: "Oh it was amazing! My husband came home and took me out to a
romantic dinner. After dinner we walked for an hour. When we came home
he lit the candles around the house and we had an hour of foreplay. We
then had an hour long session of fantastic sex and afterwards talked
for an hour. It was like a fairytale!"
- - - - -
At the same time, their husbands were talking at work. Husband 1:
 " You wanted sex last night, how was it?"
Husband 2: "Great. I came home, dinner was on the table, I ate,
screwed my wife and fell asleep. It was great! What about you?"
Husband 1: "It was horrible. I came home, there's no dinner because
they cut the electricity because I hadn't paid the bill; so I had
to take my wife out to dinner which was so expensive that I didn't
have money left for a cab. We had to walk home which took an hour --
and when we got home, remember there was no electricity, so I had to
light candles all over the house! I was so angry that I couldn't get it
up for an hour and then I couldn't come for another hour. After I finally
did, I was so aggravated that I couldn't fall asleep and my wife was
jabbering away for another damn hour."

I love how men and women think so damn opposite.  I can't imagine it any other way!



Haha!  Talk about a misplaced penis!  LOLOLOL!



Get over it!  We do bitch.  It is what it is.  And you still love us!!



LOL!  Run little rat, run!!!  :)



I have seen this one before but it's so damn funny, I went through and read them all out loud again! 

Since Dazzle is taking Chinese now, I wonder if this will help her, LMAO!!!

That's all from Uncle Darling.  I found ONE gem this week:

Probably Justin Timberlake you stupid bitch!!!   LMFAO!!!!

And, a few funnies from my boss, who has no idea she is contributing to the delinquency that is Apple at work:

It's always good to know the password.  LOL



Sounds like Dazzle and Neon.  Totally on each other's nerves.




I had to look twice to realize this wasn't a kitty.  Haha!



That is one cold ass kitty!!!  Poor funny looking freak!  Teehee!!



Haha!  Milk that shit for all it is worth before the old hag can see again!  Good job boys!



This is creepy as shit!  HA! 



AWWWWW!  LOL!  Someone help that poor thing....



Even kitties hate the feeling of stepping in cow poop.



LOL!  Eat those kitti brains you cute bald baby zombie!!

 I hope you're laughing now as much as I am!  Happy Thursday to you all!!

Errrr...Hi.

I'm only blogging today so that I can update everyone on Neon.  I'm dedicated to my TV watching today and couponing so I'm going to make this quick.

I took Neon to his ultrasound appointment yesterday afternoon and he was such a champ!  He laid perfectly still, watching Spongebob and did exactly what the lady asked.  He didn't mind her cold, jelly-rubbing self one bit.  She said that she couldn't give me any real results but she did want to ease my mind a little by letting me know that there were no masses (it's not a tumor -  in my best Arnold voice) and there are no obstructions.  That is great news!!  BUT there is still something wrong.  We're not out of the woods yet.  

We're glad that the light is beaming down...that means there is hope for good results.

Afterwards, I took his hungry behind to McDonalds to get some fries and a soda.  My little man needed a snack!  All that laying down watching TV made him hungry!  LOL

Basically, we just have to wait now for all the test results to come back.  We should be having a follow up appointment soon so they can tell us what the hell is going on.  It might take a few days since we need the results for the blood work, pee catch and ultrasounds.  I'll keep everyone posted.  Promise. 

Besides that, nothing much is going on.  Work and whatever.  The kids get their report cards this Friday so I'm excited about that.  Dazzle just started taking Dance and Chinese this semester so that should be interesting......

I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday!!

Until next time....

Why Are Titles So Hard?!

I don't know why but I have a hell of a time thinking up titles to my posts.  I can type up all this random bullshit for your reading pleasure but the title kills me every time.  One day, I'm going to get really pissed off and frustrated and stop worrying about titles!

I feel like this...Like it is looming and I need to title each and every entry.  GRR!!

Anyhow, onto more pressing issues:

I did take Neon to our pediatrician's office on Thursday afternoon.  The culture of his pee came back normal.  Dr. Tye said that the levels of calcium in his pee were normal but on the "high end" of normal, moving on into excessive.  I asked the usual stupid question, "Is this caused by drinking too much milk?"  He laughed and said no.  (WELL, calcium right??!)  Anyhow, so he said he didn't really think it was his kidney's.  It could be that he has a bleed in his bladder but he's not sure yet. 

<OH THE WORRYING!>

Dr. Tye said "Do not start freaking out on me yet.  I am going to do everything I can to figure out what is going on.  Whatever is wrong will get fixed.  Just don't flip out yet.  Trust me."  I have no problems trusting him.  He is the best pediatrician ever and he's always taken care of the kids so well. 

After that conversation, he sent us straight to the lab to have more tests done.

The first thing we did at the lab was have blood drawn.  (That was fun as hell for Neon!  He had a mini panic attack but he did pretty good)  The elderly lady that drew his blood told him that she needed him to trust her (fat chance) and she had done this a million times.  Well, he did stay still and she really did know what she was doing.  You could hardly see where she stuck the needle in.  No bruise or anything!  GO nice elderly lady!  We love you!

Then they gave us a jug thing for him to pee in.  He had to pee in this jug every single time he had to pee for 24 hours AND we had to keep it in the refrigerator.  Neon thought it was hilarious that he got to go to the fridge every time he needed to pee.  LOL.  I loved having the pee jug right next to my tea pitcher.  Oh joy!

After we fought the traffic and finally got home it was after 6PM so we had to go get something for dinner.  We decided that Neon should get to decide where we ate since he is the one that got poked with a needle.  He picked Chinese food so we had Chinese buffet.  It was yummy!


Yum, yum, yummy!!!!

I did get everything accomplished on Friday that I intended to.  Haircut, visited Nearly at work because I love her, made my huge list of things we needed for the cookout and the weekly groceries, had lunch with the kids, went to Wally World, cleaned the entire house (not that it was that dirty to begin with), baked Dazzle's birthday cake and prepped food.  I did EVERYTHING and when I was done, I was exhausted!  I did get to see my husband on Friday night and that was nice!! 

I kept falling asleep while I was trying to watch TV with Supa.  I was so desperately trying to keep my eyes open!

Saturday was really fun.  We cooked out, ate a ton of food, opened presents and went roller skating.  After that we went back to the house for cake.  YUM!  What a super fun day!  Dazzle said that she really enjoyed her special birthday and that's all that matters to me!


The burger fixings were taking over the kitchen counter!



OOOO, see my burger?  I couldn't wait to eat it!!!



Dazzle had some nasty bruises on her knees from falling down while skating BUT she and Neon did much better this time than last time.  They were flying around the rink!

Sunday, we all were really tired and needed to recover so we just hung out at the house mostly.  I did run to the flea market to check on my movie guy but he wasn't there.  BOO!  We waited until Supa got home from work and then we took Dazzle out to dinner for her birthday.  Mexican, yum!  This was also the day that Neon had to pee in the jug all day.  Fun fun!

Monday morning we got up and took the pee jug back to the lab.  Neon said, "Are you really taking a picture of my pee, Mama??!!"  For my blog, yes.


Sorry about the shitty picture.  My phone hates me.  I hope they weren't expecting him to completely fill it up. 
He's just a little guy!!!

We were thinking about going by Goodwill because they were having a mega 1/2 price off sale on everything in the store....but I called Jade, who was already at Goodwill and she said it was a huge cluster-fuck and I just wasn't up for that.  SO, we went right back home. 

The kids wanted to watch a scary movie but without all the gore so we watched The Sixth Sense.  They were scared but they liked it a lot and they talked about it the entire time we made dinner.  Then we decided to just continue on our movie-a-thon and watch Dirty Dancing.  Dazzle loved it, Neon gave it a MEH.  Just like his Daddy. 

I'm getting ready to leave work now to take Neon to the hospital.  Time for more tests!  We are having an ultrasound done on both his kidneys and his bladder.  WOO HOO!  Fun stuff!!  I hope that these tests will give us some answers on what is wrong with my little fellow!

Until Tomorrow,

Apple

Keeping This One Very Brief

I'm working until 2PM today and then I'm off until Tuesday!!  YAY for 4 1/2 day weekends!!!  Therefore, I have to get some work accomplished and prepare myself for being gone. 

I'll keep try to this brief.

I'm leaving at 2 PM today because I have to go pick up Neon and take him to our pediatrician's office so he can pee in a cup.  Let me back up a couple of days and explain.....


I hate it when there is a group of people talking in front of me and I have no idea what they are talking about or who they are talking about.  So fucking annoying!!  Explain please!!!  Okay......

Tuesday, I was sitting at work, picking my nose at my desk, minding my own damn business when the phone rang no surprise there, fucking thing rings about 100 times a day.  I recognized the number immediately....

Here is what goes on in my head when I see that number:

"The nurse at the elementary school is calling me at work.  Something terrible has happened....SHITTY FUCK"

So, I took a deep breath and answered the phone.  

The nurse said, "Ms. Darling, I was just calling to let you know that Neon went to use the bathroom and then he told his teacher that he was peeing blood." 

<Shocked silence> 

I said, "Okay, well, that is not normal.  He hasn't been sick or anything.  Is there anything else wrong with him??" 

"No, I don't think so.  No fever or pain or anything.  Do you want to talk to him?" she says.

So she puts Neon on the phone and he was crying.  I asked him a bunch of questions like:

Did you fall down?  - No
Did anyone push or hit you?  - No
Do your balls hurt? - Well, I was sitting in class and one of my balls hurt but only for a second.
Why are you crying? - I'm scared!

So, I told him to not worry, everything was going to be fine and I would send his Daddy to pick him up.  Thankfully Supa was off on Tuesday and home playing video games.

I called our pediatrician's office and made him an appointment immediately.  Supa watched him pee when he got him home and he said there was definitely blood mixed in with his pee. 

(Now, I'm at work FREAKING out.  I was relaxed and perfect until the nurse called.  Talk about Insta-headache.)  At one point, I had to go outside and call Aunt Darling so she could remind me it wasn't time to hit the panic button yet.

Supa took him to the doctor and they did all kinds of tests.  Pricked his finger, of course had him pee in a cup, tested him for strep.....the whole nine. 

They couldn't find anything wrong with him!  He kept saying that he was perfect but you're so not if you're peeing out part blood, part pee.  He doesn't have strep, no UTI, no bladder infection. 

SO, they put him on an antibiotic just in case he has some kind of infection they can't see yet.  They sent his cup of pee off to the lab to do a culture and that was about it.  SO, I have to take him today to pee in a cup again, hopefully get the results of the first pee culture and they want us to take him to the pediatric kidney specialist.  I'm supposed to find out when that referred appointment will be today, I think. 

I'm glad they are staying on top of things and taking this seriously.  I mean, we absolutely adore out pediatrician and I know he will do everything he can.  Neon had kidney issues when he was still an unborn baby in my tummy and they took care of things then.  He hasn't really had any problems since then....My poor buddy!!!

**Neon finds humor in every situation.  SO I asked him when I got home from work if his balls hurt at all.  He reached down, squeezed them and said, "Nope, they are fine!"  LOLOLOLOL!  Yep, definitely Supa's son.**

I'll keep everyone posted on what the hell is going on when I return to work on Tuesday.


I hate shit like this.  It's no one's fault, there is nobody to blame and there's not a damn thing you can do about it.

I'm beginning to wonder what Supa looks like.  Yesterday he worked 8AM - 9:30 PM and then he got back up this morning and was back at his grind by 4AM.  I don't know how the man keeps up.  I would be half dead with that lack of sleep issue. 

I think after he gets home today we might take the kids to go eat some of our favorite Mexican food. 

I have so many things to do on my day off Friday.  I'm going first thing in the morning to get my haircut.  Then I'm going to pick up the kids so we can go to Wally World. (Supa will be working of course)  After that, I'm going home to bake Dazzle's birthday cake!

Saturday, everyone is coming over for Dazzle's birthday party.  My first born is going to be 12!  OK....So I feel old now.  LOL.  .

We're having lunch at the house, the cookout that she requested.  Bacon/cheddar stuffed turkey burgers, smoked sausage and hot dogs all on the grill, deviled eggs, my homemade coleslaw and who knows what else.  Supa took Saturday off so he could be home for the festivities and man the grill.  Then it's time for presents, cake and roller skating!  Everyone is pretty excited to have some fun and watch everyone else fall on their asses a lot.  I can't wait!! 

I'm keeping Sunday and Monday open.  Who knows what we might get into.

Grrrr!  I was supposed to be keeping this short!

Let me just leave you with a little humor from Uncle Darling:

Because this will last much much longer!



God, I hope this isn't true.  BUT just in case, this does not include flusterbation so have at it!

Until Tuesday,

Apple



Flusterbation

I wish I had made up that word.  But sadly, I did not.  I heard it somewhere on a TV show the other night when Supa and I were watching TV together and let me tell you, I love it!  I'm guessing it means that you need to masturbate while you're frustrated to get out all your anxieties.  PERFECT!  I think the world would be a happier, less stressful place if we all flusterbated!

**Since I started out the entry that way, you should expect total haphazardness today!**

One of my buddies from high school/band posted a really cool picture that she took of her dog on Facebook and I loved it so much I thought I just had to share.

She must have the most amazing timing to have gotten a perfect picture like this:

How neat!!  And what an awesome tongue you have!  :)

And, Uncle Darling is at it again!!  This was waiting for me in my email when I arrived at work this morning:

Supa would be saying the same exact thing!  LOL!!!!  He always says, "Well, that's OK, there's nothing wrong with your mouth right?"  This always gets him nowhere!

I saw yesterday on one of those early morning news shows that Hostess, the company that makes the beloved Twinkie, could be going bankrupt.  :(  :(  SAD, SAD FACE!


These suckers are great!!!

I have a recipe for a Twinkie dessert that just won't work with any other fatty cake.  I NEED to have Twinkies in my life every now and then!  I only grew up eating them! 

I requested from Supa that we run out and buy about 5 cases so that we could "donate" some money to Hostess to help them out of their bankruptcy situation.  He wasn't too sure he wanted to do that.  LOL  I think if EVERYONE ran out and bought 5 cases, we and Hostess, would be fine!  Life could happily resume as normal. 

<Deep deep Twinkie loving sigh!!!!>

I hope they get their shit together.  Don't punish the world because you don't have any money to produce the goods!!!  That's all I have to say.

Supa sometimes asks me to watch videos on Youtube that he finds.  Last night I was walking through the office and aiming to throw myself on the couch for some TV time when he asked me to please come and see this video.  "You've got to see this" got my attention.  He promised me it was short and the couch would wait for me.  Okay, I'm game.  What have you got.....AND then he shows me this:

Now, how fucking awesome was THAT?!  It was well worth my time and how cool is it that this guy could set all this up.  CRAZY but way super.

Keeping it short like a midget stripper today,

Apple

It's Totally Tuesday!

Which means (thank God) that Monday is behind us.  I was dragging major ass yesterday and didn't feel bloggy at all.  Hopefully I can redeem myself today :) 


Here is me, dragging my ass yesterday.  As you can see,  I was also having a bad hair day. 

This past weekend was really fun.  I found Dazzle a desk:

Just a nice, small starter desk.  She absolutely loved it.

Supa put it together for her on Sunday and she's been sitting at it a good bit ever since.

Neon lost my sunglasses in Kmart on Saturday while we were shopping.  I don't even want to talk about it.  Yes, it's my fault for letting my 9 year old son wear my sunglasses indoors but damn, I was pissed.  Supa took me on Sunday to get a new pair.

The ones that were lost were white and I loved them.  Well, I couldn't find another pair like them so I decided these would work.  Now I love these too!  ;)

Jade and I did take Lolly out Saturday night for her birthday festivities.  We went to Groucho's for dinner (because they have the best damn sandwiches) and we all love it.  Then we went bowling and it was a riot.  We had so much fun!   We got the lane all the way on the end and bowled until midnight bowling started.  It was really cool that they turned the lights and stuff on.  I mean, I've never been bowling in the dark with psychedelic lights and colors flashing all over the place.  I enjoyed it very much.  We don't bowl well but I thought everyone might get a kick out of our scores.

 I just had to warm up ;)  Look at who won that second game!!  Heehee!!  We already decided that we need to do that at least once a month to have a healthy sanity.  Our arms hurt the next day from hurling the ball down the lane.  I kept telling Lolly, "Roll it as hard as you can!".  LOL, that wasn't very hard but she did her best.  LOL, love you Loll!  Can we have birthday's more often?  Oh, wait, I don't think I really mean that!  HAHA!

Jade, Supa and I managed to get a few coupons out of the dumpster on Sunday finally.  After 2 weeks of being "dry" my binder was really empty. 

It was a pretty good haul.  I cut, organized and filed what I needed and gave the rest away.  I try to give back when I can!

I have a bunch of TV to catch up on today while I'm at work so let me just close this entry by sharing some of the funny shit that Uncle Darling and Aunt Darling (they are brother and sister, just to keep it in perspective where the hell this humor came from) have been sending me to contribute to the blog.  I think I need to put them on my pretend payroll.  :)

Aunt Darling first:


Awwww!  Well, yes, yes they do!  I love me some kisses!!!!



LOL!  The other two are sleeping peacefully and this one, he loves to raise hell! 

As you can see, Aunt Darling went with the cute side of things....

Now Uncle Darling on the other hand.......

The kids face...Kills me every single time.



Which I totally agree with this fella on the right because I can never understand what the fuck these things are supposed to be saying!



I love the ones where the animals look completely possessed by Satan.  Since they look so nice, normal and cuddly most of the time.



Someone got really lucky with this photo.  Someone also has amazing timing!



Um, wow.  Don't pretend to not know how big/little your pecker is.  You should know your dick well enough to not need to try them on!!!  WTF?!  This tops all cake!

As you can see, Uncle Darling is out-doing his sister right now with his crazy contribution ideas!  But practice makes perfect and Aunt's are really sweet!  Keep up the good work you two!  All contributions are accepted and appreciated!!  XXOO

That's all for today folks....I'm brewing up a bloggy story but that will have to wait for tomorrow.  Time to watch back to back episodes of Hoarders to pass the time!  :)
