My son never believes anything I say! To prove this I went to the local liqour store today. I saw this ice cream cake on 30 Minute Meals and wanted to make it. Well Chad has used all the Kahlua and neglected to let me know this so I went to get more. I walk in, after setting the alarm on my truck, and explain to Grayson as we walk down an aisle lined on both sides with MANY bottles of wine, that said bottles are all glass and therefore breakable. Apparently he doesn't believe me and decides to test this theory. He reaches out with the hand that I am not holding and thumps one of the bottles. It slightly wobbles after making a satisfactory glass like sound to settle safely without crashing to the floor. I'm scared he's not satisfied that they are indeed glass bottles so I take both hands and hold them over his head to walk down the aisle with the Kahlua on it. Now keep in mind I'm holding my keys in my hand and I have one of those remotes with the nifty red panic buttons on it. Next thing I know everyone is rushing to the front of the store to see why there's an alarm going on right in front of the entrance to the store. Argh! I hit the panic button. I go out and turn it off but not before everyone knows it was me! LOL Yes Grayson the bottles are breakable and I'm not lieing!

Bronchitis Ick!
Yes you read right! I've been blessed with Bronchitis. Blech. I'd been fighting it for a few weeks. I'd decided it was my allergies and was doing my best to do what I could to make it better. I was taking Benadryl everyday, had a humidifier for the room and short of digging a gigantic hole to put the house in and hooking a hose up to my truck to run the exhaust into I wasn't going to replicate the Houston air here. So after work Friday I decide I better go to the doc that all my efforts have been futile. I went to the ER and was thankfully in and out within an hour. They gave me Zithromax and a cough suppresant, which was in pill form and just weird, but I'm on the mend. Chad had to deal with the bedroom having a humidifier and a vaporizer going at the same time but he was a good sport about it and I'm being babied! LOL
I'll right more later. I need to take my medicine as there's about to be a lung included with this post!

New Free Silver Jewelry Ad!
Yeah I know. There's "Free" stuff on the internet all the time. But this really is. I pay $5.99 shipping and get a piece of quality Sterling Silver Jewelry, sometimes with a genuine gem stone. It all depends on what it is that I like at the time. I am totally addicted to this site and order from them all the time! Check them out! I'll post pics of some of the items later!

Randomness
Why is it that I'm such a psycho magnet? I'm working as a bartender/waitress at a small bar and last night I had the weirdest guy. I actually had customers telling me how worried they were. Luckily the guy had been left there without a ride home and one of my customers, non psycho, took him home so I wouldn't have to worry. But this isn't the first time that something like this has happened. I had something similar happen years ago when I first started working as a bartender. The guy followed me home and started banging on the door at 4 in the morning. I had a good friend follow me home and I lived with my Father, Sister and Brother in Law so I wasn't alone, but what's the deal? I know that there are imbalanced people out there that go to these types of extremes but why do I seem to attract them?
On a more positive note I am SO proud of my Bug! I'm not sure if I stated in previous blogs but his doctor had put him on ADHD medications this past fall. The meds really helped and I saw a vast improvement in all areas. Well Spring Break rolled around and I wanted to see how he would do without them. There have been a lot of changes in his life recently and I wanted to see if those changes could possibly equal a non medication dependent Bug. While the first few days were a little crazy the real test was that first week back at school. He came home with his weekly conduct progress report with all smilies! NO moving his clothes pin off the green! I am so excited! I really believe that the environment he was in and not having his Daddy around was really contributing to his behavioral problems. Of course I'm talking to his Doc and really watching him. I'm keeping his teacher informed as well. But so far everything is great! He's eating A LOT better, and while he does get on my nerves on occasion, what kid doesn't get on their parents nerves?
Let's see. School is good, Work is Good and I'm adjusting to living in a new town. I'm meeting a lot of new people and making new friends. Grayson is enjoying school and getting to know his family on his Dad's side! He loves all the time he gets to spend with his Me Maw! I have to say that I love the cooler weather! It's so nice and not as hot as I'm used to it being this time of year.
