Puke fest

My house is a hospital ward right now. This all started this weekend when Ryan FINALLY got home from Arizona. He took us all out to eat. We had JUST gotten our apps and Alex just gave me "the look"- Dana you know what I mean. So I picked her up in an attempt to run her in the bathroom before she puked all over- but you guessed it- we didn't make it. She puked as I was picking her up so it was all over me, in my hair, clothes, running down my shorts and leg. GROSS! I won't be detailed, but let's just say EVERYONE there could see what she had for breakfast earlier that day. It was GROSS! So yes- then Tuesday I had to leave work early because I started puking everywhere. Today Tyler is sick and puking. We are PRAYING that if Ryan is going to get it, it's before he leaves this weekend for Arizona again! I can't imagine being away on a work trip and being sick will be much fun!!!

I hope you all have fun at the pig roast this weekend!!!

HI!!!!

Ok trust me- I am NOT trying to get all mushy gushy sappy on your guys- I was just thinking this morning though about being 30 (yes I said it- I know) and what I always wanted for myself at this age. I remember in high school writing down what I wanted to have accomplished at this age. I wanted to be married, have 2 kids, a dog, white picket fence, and a job I love. Other than our fence is stained wood instead of white, I have everything! I certainly am not trying to toot my own horn or anything, but I tend to focus on the negative so much- I am trying to work on the positive. Like a “New Years resolution” for my birthday.
I know I complain about my job a lot, but I think no matter what job you have there are complaints. Even the BEST job in the world- getting to stay home and raise your kids- there are complaints. Anyways- I really do love what I do. I look forward to coming to work everyday and I really enjoy (most) of the people I work with.
I also know I always complain about not living in Florida anymore. I truly do love living in the Midwest though. I get to be near family and friends and the snow isn’t so bad. It is nice that Alex gets to see her grandparents so much and experience sledding and all that winter stuff. I still would rather be on a beach, but family VS beach- family wins every time.

Ok so enough of that mushy- not like me at all stuff. I have some other fun news- We are taking the kids to DISNEY WORLD!!!!! It’s not until next Sept- Sept 08. Still though- I can’t wait! My parents and brother and sister in law are going with us too so it will be a lot of fun. I have not been back to Florida since we moved here, so I can’t wait. We are going to spend 1 week at Disney and then 1 week on the beach. I am not sure yet if it will be just the beach, or if we are going to take the Disney Cruise. Neither of my parents are too jazzed about a cruise, so we will see.

ALSO- I know we have our Annual Easter Weekend thing- but we should try to get together soon… anyone already planning on being in Streator anytime in the next few months???

WTF? Blogger isn't letting me put in titles! Ok so in response to you fools on my last blog- I need to remind you that I was SO smart at St. Stephen's that I skipped ahead a few grades and I am only turning 26 this summer. REMEMBER THAT! So no- my headaches aren't that.
I have been getting headaches for a long time, but the concussion on the 4th just made them a lot worse. I have a new position (same company) I was promoted to supervisor so that is a big reason I have been getting big headaches I am sure! Ryan got a new job with a NEW company all together- which is why he is on training in Arizona. Sorry- I need to blog more don't I!!!

UPDATE:

Well Friday night Ryan had me convinced that my brain was bleeding and I would die in my sleep. So I went to the ER. I did have a concussion but it was already getting better. They gave me some migraine medicine (since I have been getting HORRIBLE headaches since then) and sent me on my way. I have to go back to the Dr today for a follow up to make sure I am ok. I feel better though so I am sure I am fine.

Ryan left today for 2 weeks in Arizona!!! It's training for his new job. We are going to miss him. He is back for 1 week then off again for 3. It sucks. At least (I think I already mentioned this) I get to go see him in the middle of his 3 week stint. Pretty much my whole summer will be without him though... : (

Concussion!!!

Nothing exciting to blog just something dumb that happened to me. I have a concussion right now. My head has been throbbing, I am dizzy, can’t see very well and I have thrown up. My boss is out though so I can’t not be here. It’s our “report” day and all our reports are due to corporate by the end of the day. I really shouldn't’t be here, I should be in the ER!!! I did it to myself- stupid really. I was putting away groceries and the butter kept falling out of the freezer- after the 3rd time of picking it up, I bent down, started cussing about it, stood up really fast to throw it back in the freezer and cracked my head on the corner of the freezer door. I knocked myself out and fell on the floor. Luckily Ryan was there and helped me. I am not sure how long I was out. I came too yelling about the butter though!!!! Is that not the dumbest thing ever? If I didn't have such a short fuse I am sure it wouldn't have happened! Dumb! Dumb! Dumb!!!!

PACEY

Well my 25th birthday has come early this year!!! Ryan surprised me with an early present. I won the no-minivan war as well! Here is PACEY the PACIFICA- the newest addition to our family! I love him. He is a 2007, and has all the bells and whistles- Ryan spoiled me this year. He knew since it's the 5th anniversary of my 25th birthday, I was going to need a big gift!!!
