My life update: Disneyland, the Bakery, and my raging anger!

by lillkatherynComment Published at 15:0915:098 comments8 comments51 Visits51 VisitsReport

Ok, well it's been a long time and I'm finally back to blog!  Life has kept me busy, and then there has nothing been going on, lol.  Well not much happened up until Wed.  The normal, laundry, cleaning, visiting Grandma.  All that good stuff.

Well first the a house update.  It looks like we are going to move!  We will be moving into my hubbies house in the next several months.  I'll blog more about that later.  But it's going to be nice as we will be saving over $1300 a month!  I'm so excited.  It's going to be nice because my MIL will be with us, as well as my 2 youngest SIL.  My BIL who lives in the house we are going to move into will move to the front house with his wife (whome I doing better with, more below on that ).  And we'll have our puppy back!  How I miss my sugar girl!!!

Well, last week I gave my SIL a little car for her new baby.  It's one that you can open so the baby can push it to walk it's really neat, we have one for Kathy.  Well, I wrote a note on it saying it was for baby Isaac and that we hope he likes it.  And then I wrote a note to my SIL saying that I'm so excited for the baby to come and that if, when the time comes, she needs a ride to the hosp I'm more then happy to take her.  I also told her that if any time she needs someone to watch her girl, we would be more then happy to do so.  And that we are always here for them.  Well, I left it at that, because I have been doing alot of thinking about our relationship.  Well, now I'm not asking to be best friends, but for us to be close enough to each other that we can talk when we see each other and for our babies to play together.  After all they are only months apart, both sets.  So I though that note would be a nice thing to let her know that I don't have any hard feelings and for what ever reason she may be thinking, to let her know that I was not thinking anything bad...Though I do the issues from the past, but I'm trying to move on from them.  Anyway, she called me the next day and thanked me for the gift and we talked for about 20min.  It was really nice and a great step in that direction.  And today my SIL E said that my MIL told her that my BIL read the note and commented how nice it was to my MIL (his mom)..Got that?  lol.  So he knows what I said, and she said that he was going to show it to my SIL, so she read it also and ever since she has been much warmer towards me, and I in return.  Which is what I wanted...for us to just be warmer with each other.  So we'll see how it goes from here!

So on Wednesday we went to Disneyland!  I loved as I have wanted to go back for a while, and it was great because Kathy is old enough to enjoy it.  It was only a 30min drive, no traffic at all.  Kathy got to see Goofy and Ariel and Cinderella's Godmother.  We went to Mickey's toontown, which is for kids and the princess area.  Kathy got to hear the story about Beauty and the Beast, told by Belle.  Very cool.  We got to ride the new Pirates of the Carabean.  Kathy got to drive the car with hubby.  We stayed all day and got to see the parade that they have every night.  So cool, and the best part is we are going back in about 2 weeks!  I loved it, and it really was a magical day.

Well, yesterday I went to work at the bakery.  Hubby did not have anyone with him for about 3 hours, so I went it to help.  It was alot of fun, though I was still tired from all the walking the day before.  It was quiet and I did a good job, lol.  We talked about me going more, when they needed help.  I told him I wanted to go more when Kathy is in school because of it being to hard with his mom watching my 2 babies and since my SIL is due any day.  So I don't want my MIL to feel overwhelmed with all the babies, or for her to feel she has to watch them all the time.  But I'm really excited about it!  I was easy, just making sure I got all that the people ordered and the right stuff.  But I've done that kinda thing already, long time ago, lol. 

Ok, now the bad part.  My hubby's cousin has been bothering my girl for several weeks now.  Even my MIL has commented on how much he is being like this, and she is not one to talk about other in any negative way, bless her soul.  Well, after I came to pick up my girl, and we were going to the bank, my girl made a comment.  I asked her to repeat it and I asked if she was talking about her bottle.  She said no she was talking about her bottom, she said, "I have a pollito (means little chicken in spanish) in my butt.  I asked her who said that and she said she did.  I said, I know that, but who told you that?  Now being of a christian family, no one talks about our privates, espcially to the babies.  Well, she was with my MIL and then hubbys cousin.  I asked if it was him and she said yes.  I told her that she was not allowed to talk to him anymore.  Then she said that Mikey had a pollito in his buttand that she had a doggie in her butt...Ok so can you see where this is going?  Now my girl and I have a word that we use for her, and it's not something we even talk about.  Then to go and say mikey has one thing and she has another...I got really mad.  I call my MIL and told her, thru my SIL M, what my girl said.  And here's the clencher for me, while she was saying those thing, she was showing me where.  I got so ill, I was bright red, and I wanted to cry!  Now I don't know what exactly was said, but how could a 2 1/2 year old say something like, and know there is a difference?  She has never asked me why Mikey is different, while I've changed his diaper.  She does not know that stuff yet, and to hear it come out of her mouth.  I told my MIL that he was not allowed near my babies anymore.  I don't care, he is not to go near them.  Well, when hubby got home, I told him and he was silent.  I could see in his eyes the anger and fear.  Something I wish I would never have to see again, and the pain that I felt telling him.  He called his mom and talked to her and told her to keep him away from the babies.  He said that he has to leave and he could not talk to him or else he would kick him out right there on the spot.  I have to say, I trust my girl as when she talks matter of factly and when I asked who tells her something, she tells the truth.  She has never lied about things like that.  And silly things she giggles or smiles with, so my only conclusion is that.  So that had me upset the whole night, and telling my mom...She tried to say just wait and don't draw conclusions, but when I explained that a 2 year old does not know the difference in boys and girls, unless told and that we have never told her before, how else will she learn it?  I just don't know...All I can say is hubby's cousin is now cut off from my babies...this is not the first time he has said something inappropriate to my girl either (he has threatened to take my son away from my girl if she does not give him a kiss, many times!!!)....

Ok, so I'm done and that's my update!  Love to all.

Ouch, my fibromyalgia is back!!!

by lillkatherynComment Published at 09:3809:3812 comments12 comments85 Visits85 VisitsReport

Well everything has been going great for me physically until yesterday.  Besides the normal P problems (anemia) I've been in pretty good health.  Well last night I woke up with the sweats, which means that something is going on.  I normally get them with fevers only.  So I just had a funny feeling that when I wake up something was happening.  And sure enough when I woke up my fibro flared up horribly.  I feel like someone is squeezing my chest and my back hurts like something else.  And it's not the muscles either, which would be and easy fix with sleeping in a bit longer.  This is the tendons that run along my spin.  So no doubut I can't do much and it is begining to burn.  I told hubby and he knows just how bad I get.  Will be asking for a massage tonight.  I took some medicine for the pain, so I hope it will help. It's strong, but I need it now....Poor little boy, Mikey will be so tired later as it goes into the BM.  SO I'm off to laying back down and hopefully Kathy will be good for me...

Take care all...Oh and here are some pics of Kathy's and my new doo...

 See how orange my hair is?  Gotta fix it. 

  It's hard to see, but she got it cut up short.  I love it so much!!!

House update

by lillkatherynComment Published at 19:1619:1620 comments20 comments32 Visits32 VisitsReport

Well, for all those who read my blog the other day, I was so excited about us looking at buying a house.  Looks like things have changed, for now.  Who knows, maybe they will change back, as hubby is always changing his mind until things are set in motion.  Ok here is the update.  Hubby told me that they found a great place for lease, about 5m from our house to open a second bakery!  Yes, bakery #2!!!  This would be so awsome.  He said that he would run the new one, and I would run the one we have already, for 3days, then my SIL would for 2Days, and his and his bro on the weekend.  Though I think I'll do it during the week, as I can be a tought a**, and she is a bit softer, plus I have the manager skills already.  So I'm totally excited about it, and I hope that the lease is a good deal.  If so, then we area going to be doubling everything, and that means that we will be able to buy a house here instead of in the other town....We'll see!!!

Here are some new pics of the bakery:

 Our new menu boards with our new menu

 Our yummy pastries, before we opened.  They don't last long.

Our outdoor seating area.  The weather has been lovely, so this is the place to sit!

I'm so excited with how everything is going.  Though we have had some hiccups, like the soda machine got broken yesterday night.  So while we were out, we had to hurry back so hubby could call a tech.  The thing would not stop running and water was going all over the floor.  Then they ran out of tuna, lol.  The babies and I came to the rescue!!!!  I was rewarded with a yummy smoothie, orange julius....love em!  So that is all for now.  In that avenue.

On the other side, Kathy got her hair cut yesterday, it looks soooooo cute, though daddy wants it a bit longer....But Kathy loves it, and so do I as it's so easy to take care of.  Mikey has found his feet and is talking up a storm now.  He is started solids and he is attacking everything that is put into his mouth.  He was chomping on a mango today and loved it!  Lol, what can I say my babies are growing up.  Hubby took Kathy to his cousins, they live like 5 housed down and she is going to play with her 2 cousins there.  She will be so tired when she comes back, they love to run around like crazy! 

I'm draging from my P.  I get anemic with it, but hate taking the iron tablets as they make my IBS worse.  So I think I'm going to crash early, at least until hubby comes home and I'll take care of Kathy, only is she is awake.  Though he is really good at putting her to bed a few nights a week now.  And we started this new thing where she gets to sleep with him in the living room, watching tv on Firday nights.  Though she opted to go into her bed this past friday.  So I'm off to laydown and watch tv as Mikey is alseep and I wanna veg....

My SIL's new haircut, and my new color

by lillkatherynComment Published at 14:5914:5910 comments10 comments109 Visits109 VisitsReport

Well, just got back form visiting my MIL and taking my SIL to get her hair cut.  It looks soooooooooo cute.  She got it cut like my girls hair, and it suites her so well....I wanna take a pic of them together as they do look alike, lol.  I on the other hand, would love to cut my hair, but hubby likes it long, and I just colored it, so I'll let him have the lenght....hehe.  I made mine a blonde, but need to fix it as it is still orange in color on the ends.  I removed the color, but it's still brassy...Oh well, the family likes the top, as it looks like a golden blonde....Other then that, I'm going to try to fix my girls room.  Talk about getting messy so fast.  I clean it and then it's messed up in abuot 5 min when my girl gets into her stuff....lol Well hope all have a great weekend!
